  • The MIT List Visual Arts Center Rosa Barba
    Rosa Barba, The Color Out of Space, 2015 HD video still © rosa barba Media Contact: Mark Linga [email protected] 617-452-3586 The MIT List Visual Arts Center presents Rosa Barba: The Color Out of Space October 23, 2015 – January 3, 2016 Opening Reception: October 22, 6-8PM September 14, 2015—Cambridge, MA The MIT List Visual Arts Center presents a major exhibition of work by acclaimed Berlin-based artist Rosa Barba, her most comprehensive show in North America to date. Barba’s works encompassing sculptures, installations, text pieces, and publications are grounded in the material qualities of celluloid and the cinema. Her practice bridges making conceptual projector sculptures—reminiscent of what is known as structural film—that examine the physical properties of the projector, celluloid, and projected light, and longer projected film works situated between experimental documentary and fictional narrative. These speculative stories are indeterminately situated in the past or the future and probe into the relationship of historical record, personal anecdote, and filmic representation. In nine works made over the last six years, most of which have not been shown in the United States before, the List exhibition focuses on Barba’s long-standing engagement with landscape and time, particularly her interrogation of “deep” geological time as measured against the span of a human lifetime. The 35mm-film installation Time As Perspective (2012) is a central work in the show: Projected on a large screen suspended from the ceiling in the middle of the gallery space, the footage includes bird’s eye views of the Texan desert and incessantly turning oil pump jacks, interspersed with intertitles of text fragments and augmented by a foreboding electronic soundtrack.

    CYNDI LAUPER (Composer and Lyricist) Date of Birth: June 22, 1953 Place of Birth: Queens, NY, USA Cyndi Lauper is a Grammy, Emmy and Tony Award-winning artist, who, after 30 sterling years and global record sales in excess of 50 million albums, has proven that she has the heart and soul to keep her legion of fans compelled by her every creative move. With her first album, She's So Unusual, Lauper won a Grammy Award for Best New Artist and became the first female in history to have four top-five singles from a debut album on the Billboard 100 chart (“Girls Just Wanna Have Fun,” “Time After Time", “She Bop,” and “All Through the Night”). In the summer of 2013, Cyndi embarked on the She's So Unusual Tour to commemorate the 30th Anniversary of the record. Since then, Lauper has released ten additional studio albums, with her most recent, the Grammy nominated Memphis Blues, ruling the Billboard Blues Chart for 14 consecutive weeks to become the best­ selling blues album of 2010. Her upcoming 11th studio album, Detour, recorded late last year in Nashville, will showcase her signature takes on classic country songs from the 1950’s and 60’s. The album will also feature appearances by some of country music’s most-celebrated artists. Overall, during her storied music career, Lauper has been nominated for 15 Grammy Awards, two American Music Awards, seven American Video Awards and 18 MTV Awards. On June 18th, 2015 Lauper was inducted into the Songwriter’s Hall of Fame. In 2013, Lauper became the first female composer to win a Tony Award for her score of the year’s Best Musical, Kinky Boots, which she penned alongside Harvey Fierstein.
