SUMMARY:UA Museum of Art Exhibition\: \"Metropolis\" 
DESCRIPTION:The classic silent art film \"Metropolis\" will be featured as part of an exhibition of the same name at the University of Arizona Museum of Art.  Fritz Lang's iconic 1927 German film presents the future as a beautiful and frightening dystopia.  The city\, for the upper classes\, is a gorgeous pleasure dome\, where everything runs like clockwork and leisure is the occupation of most of the occupants.  Beneath the ground\, the lower classes toil away in endless drudgery\, working the huge machines that make the city run.  When discontent brings the workers to the edge of revolt\, a battle between good and evil ensues that threatens to destroy the civilization for everyone.   The exhibition \"Metropolis\" explores the themes of the film\, including labor issues\, class warfare\, architectural design\, industrial mechanization and the future.  Drawing from both the UAMA permanent collection and the fine arts collection of the Center for Creative Photography\, the exhibition presents artists grappling with the same topics presented in the film.  The artistic presentations do not always adopt the movie's viewpoints.     The museum will continuously screen the 90-minute version of the film that substantially follows the 1927 version edited by Channing Pollock for American audiences.  The original German version was considered too controversial for American consumption.    Even if you have never seen the film \"Metropolis\" you may recognize some of its widespread cultural influences - including the \"Star Wars'\" droid C-3PO based on the film's robot\, \"Blade Runner's\" Tyrell Building based on the film's New Tower of Babel\, and the film's footage in Queen's video for the song \"Radio Ga Ga.\"

SUMMARY:Art Exhibit featuring Neal Galloway
DESCRIPTION:Neal Galloway is an artist and graphic designer working and living in Tucson. He earned his bachelor's degree in art and in music from the University of Tulsa. This year he is beginning the Master of Fine Arts program at the University of Arizona.    Galloway is extremely interested in the way space is confined and defined in an image. Walls\, floors and ceilings help define an interior space\, just as trees\, clouds\, roads and architecture define the edges of an outside space. He explores this dynamic through drawings\, paintings and collages. Painting holds particular tactile and symbolic significance for him. He's interested in the connection forged with painters in centuries past by such a historic medium. The patience that this medium demands is rewarding\, and the layers of paint represent\, and literally hold in them\, the time invested in the works themselves.     Galloway exaggerates subtle color differences between objects and surfaces in his paintings. He is entranced by the way the light from a window or lamp pushes color across a wall\, driving the darker tones back to the corners and out toward the edges and heightening the sense of perspective. This kind of play between and within the colors of his paintings gives them a unique and subdued energy. Galloway has indicated that he finds particular inspiration in the paintings of Euan Uglow\, Rackstraw Downes and Edward Hopper.    In his collages he enjoys playing with perspective by creating believable spaces that recede in three dimensions but that also contain a sort of visual dissonance within the image fueled by the 'just off' placement of a chair or rug.    Subtlety and mystery are essential artistic qualities and Galloway  seeks both in his paintings\, drawings and collages.

SUMMARY:Gregory Euclide\: \"Real\, Natural\, and Unsustainable\" Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Gregory Euclide's work explores the manner in which we experience nature and how these encounters are tied to the cultural practice of fabricating landscapes as idealized constructs. His recent compositions are a series of sculptural \"captures\" made by pouring paint or liquid adherent over the natural environment. Euclide uses the complexity and interconnectedness of the environment as the content and conceptual framework for his art. In \"Real\, Natural\, and Unsustainable\,\" Euclide will explore the Tucson landscape\, building ethereal\, bucolic topographies to provide an explorable vignette of our local surroundings. His work is a manifestation of the tension between our desires to engage\, preserve and sustain the natural world and the demands our lifestyles place upon the environment.Euclide's work has been shown in exhibitions at the Minnesota Museum of American Art\, White Walls\, San Francisco\, and the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art. He recently completed his installation\, \"Because There's There\, Here is Just Fine\" for the Biennial of the Americas held in Denver\, Colo. The gallery is open Monday through Friday and this exhibit is free to the public everyday. The Joseph Gross and Lionel Rombach Galleries are located on the University of Arizona campus between the Museum of Art and the Center for Creative Photography. Parking is available on Second Street\, east of Park Avenue\, or in the parking garage north of Speedway on Park Avenue. For further  questions please visit our website below.

Sound recordings\, corrido lyrics and sheet music drawn from the University Libraries' fine arts holdings and personal collections complement the materials selected from Special Collections. Curated by librarians Verónica Reyes-Escudero and Bob Diaz\, \"Stories & Music of the Revolution\" commemorates the 200th anniversary of Mexico's independence and the 100th anniversary of the Mexican Revolution.

SUMMARY:\"Banned Books\" Exhibit 
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate your freedom to read at the University Libraries during Banned Books Week\, Sept. 25-Oct. 2. Observed since 1982\, Banned Books Week is an annual event promoted by the American Library Association that serves to celebrate the freedom to read and to remind Americans not to take this precious democratic freedom for granted.

SUMMARY:UA Museum of Art Exhibition\: \"PostSecret\: Confessions on Life\, Death and God\" 
DESCRIPTION:  The University of Arizona Museum of Art is pleased to present \"PostSecret\: Confessions on Life\, Death and God\,\" with more than 270 artfully crafted postcards that unearth a myriad of private thoughts concerning spirituality and religion.   The \"PostSecret\" phenomena began in November 2004\, when Frank Warren handed out 3\,000 postcards to strangers. He invited people to write down a secret anonymously and mail it to him. Each secret had to be true and something that had never been shared with another person. These initial secrets were exhibited later that year. After the first exhibition closed\, word of the project spread.  People began creating their own homemade postcards and the artful secrets started arriving from every continent. Today\, Warren has received more than 450\,000 postcards and they continue to come at a rate of about 1\,000 per week.  Why is \"PostSecret\" so appealing? It is because Warren has tapped into the universal stuff of being human\, the collective\, often unconscious level of existence that defies age\, culture\, gender\, economics and so on. \"Confessions\" brilliantly illustrates that human emotion can be unique and universal at the same time. The secrets are both provocative and profound\, and the cards themselves are works of art.  UAMA will also display a wall of \"Wildcat Confessions\" - Tucson viewers are invited to anonymously contribute their own thoughts to the UAMA exhibition.  Museum hours are Tuesday through Friday\, 9 a.m.-5 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday 12-4 p.m. The museum is closed on Mondays and University holidays.

SUMMARY:\"Nature\" Photographs by Les Longino 
DESCRIPTION:Les Longino has been working with digital photography for nine years\, starting with a simple point and shoot\, and now working with a DSLR camera. His nature photography focuses on formal elements in the image\, such as pattern\, texture and the quality of the light. Often\, the subjects of the images begin to separate into abstract compositions. The intent is not to document a certain natural setting for botanical or geological record-keeping\, but instead to bring out the elements the two-dimensional printed image are made of\: the color of an agave leaf\, the wavy pattern in a geological formation or the interaction of light and shadow across a landscape. This show displays photographs taken around Arizona\, Utah and other parts of the Southwest.
