Legendary German baritone Matthias Goerne, one of the world’s most renowned Lieder singers, joined by internationally sought-after pianist Seong-jin Cho, perform a selection of songs by Wolf, Pfitner, and Strauss, and Wagner’s Wesendonck Lieder. Wagner once proclaimed “I have not written anything better than these songs and very few of my works will be remembered besides them.” While history has proved him wrong, the Wesendonck Lieder stands out as an absorbing document of Wagner’s complex relationships, revealing the composer in his most fragile mode.

Note: this exhibition is viewable from the sidewalk on 25th St. From San Diego Weekend Events (KPBS arts preview): Mortis Studio was founded in 2016 by Taylor Johnson and Dustyn Peterman as an art, animation, video and graphic design creative agency. They're opening a new studio in Golden Hill this week, with an art exhibition to kick things off. "Soft" is a collection of works by local textile artist Denja Harris of Brown Acid Goods, and it'll be on view beginning Friday through Jan. 16, 2022. I love the way Harris plays with colors and shapes in her thick, rug-like tufted fiber works, and the patterns feel just as vintage as they do modern and surprising. The opening reception is Friday, with food and drink from the popular TNT Pizza. —Julia Dixon Evans, KPBS From the organizers: Mortis Studio is pleased to present SOFT, the debut solo exhibition by Denja Harris. Opening reception: Friday, Dec. 3, 2021, 6 - 9 p.m. Food and drinks will be provided by @tntsdpizza. Exhibition dates will run through January 16th. Denja Harris is a textile artist based out of San Diego, CA. Her work explores experimental functional art with an emphasis in nostalgia, color, shapes, and texture. Each piece reflects work that is never duplicated, revealing how function and design can be combined to enhance a space. The inaugural show also marks the official opening of MORTIS STUDIO’S new office in Golden Hill. MORTIS STUDIO. 1038 25th St, San Diego, CA 92102

RELATED: Oceanside Museum of Art hosts 5th Artist Alliance Biennial (KPBS feature) From the organizer: OMA is thrilled to present their fifth biennial, continuing the tradition of elevating the voice of Southern California artists and celebrating the best work from OMA’s Artist Alliance. This exhibition represents only a small cross-section of our remarkable artist members. The competition was fierce—ultimately only 61 artworks were selected from nearly 900 entries by juror Alessandra Moctezuma, Professor of Art and Gallery Director at San Diego Mesa College. Jurying the artworks to be included in this year’s exhibition was a challenge. Juror Moctezuma adds that, “As a curator and professor of art, I really enjoyed seeing the variety of approaches, unique concepts, media manipulation, and attention to craftsmanship. It was difficult to narrow it down to a limited selection. We wanted to include as many works as possible and as I made my selections, visual connections and relationships in mood and theme clearly emerged. “The past eighteen months have been a time of uncertainty and isolation. Personally, nature has been a healthy escape, so I included pieces—both figurative and abstract—that represent that much needed connection to the beauty around us. With artists at the heart of our work, we are honored to have this opportunity to recognize excellence in creative and original expression. The exhibition will open to the public on Dec. 18, 2021, and will be available to view during the museum's operating hours (Thursday-Saturday, 11-5 and Sunday, 11-4). There will be an artist reception on Feb. 12, 2022, and the exhibition will be available to view until May 1, 2022. Dates: Dec. 18, 2021- May 1, 2022 Times: Thursday-Saturday, 11-5 and Sunday, 11-4 Location: Oceanside Museum of Arts Cost: $10 for adults, $5 for seniors, and free for museum members, children, students, and active duty military.
