Art in Action

“Art in Action is somewhere between an academic symposium and the vibrancy of an eagerly awaiting coloring book. This is where we explore in public to release the energetic potential of sharing ideas together.” Antonio Sanchez Angélique Kidjo —Kristy Edmunds Remain In Light & Migration Art in Action, our free public engagement program, offers a wide range of experiential Sat, Feb 17, 2018 Sat, May 5, 2018 The Theatre at Ace Hotel art activities around the ideas emanating from the work of artists on our season. Through The Theatre at Ace Hotel workshops, lectures, master classes, films, salons and art-making forums, Art in Action provides a platform for our UCLA and Los Angeles communities to exchange ideas and participate in shared cultural experiences.

CODA21 is a pilot initiative that supports dialogue, research, and collaboratively designed experiments between UCLA’s Center for the Art of Performance and leading research cen- ters and labs across campus. Collaborating labs include Denise Cai and Silvalab, a leading neuroscience research lab studying molecular and cellular cognition; Hakwan Lau and the Consciousness & Metacognition Lab; the Tennenbaum Center for the Biology of Creativity; and the Design Media Arts Lab.

Informing CODA21’s design is the belief that the students at UCLA represent the conditions emblematic of society at large. Economic anxiety, homogeneous living arrangements, and media saturation imposing gender and racial stereotypes have seriously eroded the acade- my’s critical role in fostering a pluralistic, tolerant, progressive, and socially interdependent community. Curriculum is increasingly limited in its ability to play this historic role. The remaining antidote is a thoughtfully curated arts presenting program like CAP UCLA, an interdisciplinary learning experience offering students and the extended audience exposure, through live performance to artists who represent the diversity of traditions, ethnicities, gender roles, and aesthetics reflective of the demographic terrain in which we all work and live. Through its experimental collaboration, CODA21 seeks to confirm, amplify, and enhance this crucial role.
