Shirin Neshat's first feature-length film is based on a magic-realist novel written by Iranian author Sharnush Parsipur. The narrative interweaves the lives of four Iranian women during the summer of 1953, a pivotal moment in Iranian history when an American led coup d' tat brought down the democratically elected prime minister Mohammed Mossadegh and reinstalled the Shah to power. The film chronicles each woman's quest for change and their mysterious encounter in a magical orchard.
Credits Producer: Susanne Marian, Martin Gschlacht, Philippe Bober Screenplay: Shirin Neshat Written By: Shahrnush Parsipur Cinematographer: Martin Gschlacht Music: Ryuichi Sakamoto Principal Cast

Friday, April 16, 2010 06:00pm Distinguished Artist Lecture: Willie Cole FREE and open to the public
In a series of extraordinary “scorch paintings,” canvases
“branded” with the imprints of steam irons, Willie Cole has established himself
a major contemporary artist. The scorch paintings reference African tribal
markings, domestic labor, and personal family history and have resembled masks,
slave ships, and flowers. Cole’s sculptures built from recycled objects ranging
from high-heel shoes, hair dryers, and bicycle parts similarly reference a
broad range of cultural practices, particularly African art traditions. Cole
will speak informally in the
galleries about his life, his work, and his works of art on view in the
exhibition. Produced in collaboration with the Myers School of Art, University of Akron
with additional funding by the Akron
Art Museum.

Pianist Omar Sosa and his Afreecanos Quartet will take
the stage at MOCA as part of our annual collaboration with Tri-C’s Jazzfest. Sosa’s
compositions are known for their exploration of African and Latin music as they
combine modern jazz harmonies with the latest in electronic music. Downbeat
magazine writes, "Sosa stokes the African and Cuban fires: Each burns
distinctly from the other while illuminating the place between them. This is
where Sosa pitches his musical camp and works his magic."
