Inspired by the varied stitching techniques featured in "Fashioning An Icon: Virgin of Guadalupe Imagery in Textile Design", join us for our monthly stitching self guided workshop held at the George Nakashima table in Mingei's Founders Gallery. June’s project will be Tenango-inspired embroidery. Similar to Hñähñu (also known as Otomi), Tenago stitching is visible in a few textiles depicting The Virgin of Guadalupe on view in the gallery. This stitch is also known as “Pata de Gallo” or “Pata de Cabra” and could be described as a modified backstitch. Each month, engage in a unique, self-guided project centered around the textiles shown in "Fashioning an Icon." All skill levels are welcome. Mingei International Museum on Facebook / Instagram

Friday, November 21 at 11 a.m. Saturday, November 22 at 7:30 p.m. Anja Bihlmaier, conductor Steven Osborne, piano San Diego Symphony Orchestra OLLY WILSON: "Shango Memory" BEETHOVEN: Piano Concerto No. 4 in G Major, Op. 58 SIBELIUS: Symphony No. 1 in E minor, Op. 39 The power of music to suggest our deepest feelings of spiritual awe has been understood since ancient times. In this program, three composers write pieces which capture the human yearning for another level of experience. The late great African American composer Olly Wilson drew on his roots in jazz and the music of his African ancestors to suggest the terrifying power of Shango, the ancient Yoruba god of thunder and lightning. In the slow movement of his Fourth Piano Concerto, Beethoven calls to mind the Greek divinity Orpheus, who tamed wild beasts with the beauty of his music. Sibelius’ First Symphony plunges deep into the imaginary mystical mythology of prehistoric Finland.
