OTIS COLLEGE EXTENSION COURSES AT THE SKIRBALL CULTURAL CENTER

Otis College of Art and Design partners with a fellow arts organization to provide its outstanding Otis College Extension courses throughout the community.

LOS ANGELES AT THE SKIRBALL CULTURAL CENTER

The Skirball Cultural Center presents an array of visual, literary, and performing arts; enriching educational opportunities; an interactive family destination, Noah’s Ark at the Skirball™; plus dining and shopping – all in an architecturally stunning setting.

From April 27 through September 3, 2017, the Skirball presents Paul Simon: Words & Music. Making its only West Coast stop at the Skirball, the exhibition—originally organized by the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum—illustrates how Simon’s music has reflected social and cultural ideals over six decades. From his first compositions as a teen and his celebrated work in Simon & Garfunkel to his transformative collaborations with world musicians up to and including his current work, Simon’s evolution has been grounded in a lifelong quest to find the words, music, and rhythms that connect most deeply with listeners.

Based on exclusive interviews with the artist, the show walks visitors through Simon’s life and music and illuminates his creative process. On view are instruments, records, sheet music, handwritten lyrics, photography, costumes, and stage maquettes, as well as listening stations and performance footage spanning Simon’s illustrious career. Exclusively for the Los Angeles presentation, Paul Simon: Words & Music includes additional artifacts from Simon’s private archive and a newly created music lab.

For more information about these and other offerings at the Skirball, visit skirball.org.
