Art Notes

[museummix]

The Georgia Museum of Art at the University of Georgia will host its second Museum Mix of the year on July 20 from 8 to 11 p.m. All of the galleries will be open for the late- night art party, which features DJ Nate from Wuxtry taking visitors on a musical journey from the 1950s through the 1970s. Free refreshments and snacks will be provided. The event is free and open to the public. DJ Nate works at the downtown record store Wuxtry by day and DJs by night. He spins every Tuesday night at The Manhattan, playing a broad mix of music, but mainly focuses on oldies. He was voted best live DJ in the Flagpole Music Awards in 2016. For Museum Mix, he will play 45 RPM vinyls that focus on blues, R&B, rock & roll and punk. DJ Nate says, “Different areas from around the globe will be explored. Afrobeats, reggae and oddball stuff; something to pepper the musical ‘stew’.” Exhibitions on view include “The Past is Never Dead: Kristin Casaletto,” “Avocation to Vocation: Prints by F. Townsend Morgan,” “The Genius of Martin Johnson Heade,” “Local Color: Martin Johnson Heade Paintings from the Collection of Deen Day Sanders” and “Modern Living: Giò Ponti and the 20th-Century Aesthetics of Design.” Sponsors of the event include Amici, Big City Bread, Heirloom Café, Pulaski Heights Barbecue and Your Pie, as well as the Friends of the Georgia Museum of Art.

Museum Mix Oct. 1 with DJ Jenny G!

Jenny Gropp has DJed specialty shows in sound art and electronic music at three college radio stations over the past 15 years: Radio 1190 in Boulder, Colorado, KBGA in Missoula, Montana, and WVUA in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. She has also DJed parties in Japan and in various cities across the United States, and she has traveled to West Africa to study music there. She also plays drums and writes poetry and prose—her first book is coming out from Kore Press in March 2016.

“Those beautiful, dynamic Alice Aycock sculptures, Twin Vortexes and Waltzing Matilda, just arrived in the sculpture garden… I heard they were in Chicago before this, and now that they’ve come here to hang out for a while, I think they’re asking for a soundtrack. Aycock has said she was visualizing the movement of wind energy when she was sculpting, and so I’ll offer an aural capacity to that experience, bringing in music from all different eras and locations around the globe. I’m definitely excited for this.”

Come enjoy the music, art and fun at the museum until midnight! Free and open to the public. We I.D.
