Event Description:
Award-winning puppeteer Patti Smithsonian will present “Coyote’s Eyeball And Other Fantastic Stories of the Constellations” on Sunday, Nov. 8 Smithsonian has presented her humorous educational multi-media shows in Canada, Mexico, Ireland, France and Turkey. She’s also worked in Taiwan for two months the past three years designing floats, animal puppets and shows for the Jane Goodall Foundation. “Coyote’s Eyeball” features Bigfoot, magical flying horses, sea monsters, jealous stars and people with bad breath – all characters found in constellation myths around the world. Smithsonian said, “It is a very funny show that gets people excited about the constellations.“ The presentation is hosted by Coyote, an irreverent 24-inch hand puppet. Smithsonian acts out the characters and voices before a ten-foot projected animation of large puppet characters, including a magical horse and chariot that will “fly” totally around the theatre.

"The Machine Stops (or Inkjet My Foot!)" features the work of contemporary lithographers. This is a limited edition print portfolio inspired by E.M. Forster’s 1909 short story, “The Machine Stops.” In the story Forster describes a human existence that is completely dependent on technology. Using Forster’s prescient masterpiece as a point of reference, the portfolio explores relationships between humanity and the technological world that is increasingly encompassing it. It showcases traditional hand lithography as a central medium while incorporating other such processes that accommodate the theme. The portfolio was organized by UA professor Andrew Polk and Kathryn Polk. Museum Hours: Tuesday – Friday 9 am – 5 pm, Saturday and Sunday Noon – 4 pm. Closed Mondays and University Holidays Admission: $5 Adults. Free: Children, Museum members, UA, faculty, staff and students Call or visit the Museum's website at: artmuseum.Arizona.edu.
