SUMMARY:Artist Discussion with Madeline Sayet
DESCRIPTION:Artist Discussion and Q&A with Mohegan Director\, Playwright\, and Actor\, Madeline Sayet \nJoin us on Sunday\, July 10 at 6:00 p.m. as we welcome award-winning Mohegan director\, writer\, actor\, and educator Madeline Sayet to the Mitchell Museum of the American Indian. We invite you to this in-person conversation and Q&A to celebrate Sayet’s work and the production of her solo play\, Where We Belong\, now showing at the Goodman Theatre as part of a national tour presented by the Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company in association with the Folger Shakespeare Library.   \nWhere We Belong\, at the Goodman Theatre through July 24\, 2022\, is a personal story of an Indigenous theatre-maker’s journey across geographic borders\, personal history\, and cultural legacies; in search of a place to belong. Sayet’s autobiographical account in Where We Belong shares her experience pursuing a Ph.D. in Shakespeare in England. There she finds a country that refuses to acknowledge its role in colonialism while echoing a journey to England braved by Native ancestors in the 1700s following treatise betrayals\, forcing us to consider what it means to belong in an increasingly globalized world.  \nThis intimate conversation with Sayet is free for Mitchell Museum Members and $10 for non-members. Admission for Native citizens is always free. Tickets can be purchased in advance or onsite.   \n\n\n\n\n\nFor more information about this program\, please contact: info@mitchellmuseum.org | (847) 475-1030 | www.mitchellmuseum.org/events/

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Vibrancy on the Brink
DESCRIPTION:Growing up in Germany\, Anke Fachmann was influenced by remarkable artist movements such as The Bridge (Die Brücke) and The Blue Rider (Der Blaue Reiter). A passion for art\, culture\, and design led her to initially study graphic design. She received a Bachelors in Graphic Design at the Freie Hochschule für Grafik-Design & Bildende Kunst in Freiburg\, Southern Germany. She then came to the US to pursue a graphic design career. Soon\, Fachmann’s focus changed and she rediscovered her passion for fine art. \nColor and structure are her tools to tell stories\, ​to leave room for the imagination. She paints with her fingers as well as with recycled materials such as paper and coffee sleeves to give her artwork an unique expression. \nAnke Fachmann on her technique and subject matter: \n“One day I worked on a big canvas using brushes. This felt tiring\, so I started to dip my hands and fingers into the paint. Over time\, I explored painting with recycled materials such as straws\, sponges\, and the paper sleeves from to-go coffee cups. Friends started saving the coffee sleeves for me and I think that is not a bad idea when it comes to recycling and our beloved planet!” \n“After experimenting with mixed media and abstract work\, I started to paint animals\, learning more and more about endangered species through this media. I decided to focus on them\, with the hope to prompt curiosity and to showcase their beauty and uniqueness.” \nFachmann uses her art to create awareness and to work together with environmental organizations and activists whenever she can. She lives in San Francisco. \nThis exhibition opens with a reception on Friday\, July 15\, from 6:00 to 9:00pm. The exhibition runs through Friday\, August 19.
