EXHIBITIONS
OPENING Home and Away: The Printed Works of Ruth Asawa September 19, 2014–January 19, 2015 The Norton Simon Museum presents Home and Away features, an exhibition of
printed works by Ruth Asawa while in residence at the Tamarind Lithography
Workshop in Los Angeles in 1965. At the Workshop, Asawa produced intimate
portraits of her family and friends back home as well as studies of flowers and
chairs. The works chosen for Home and Away include intimate portraits of her
children and father as well as a suite of twelve floral prints. Home and Away represents the first time an
exhibition has been dedicated to the subject of her family portraits and floral studies.
CLOSING Face It: The Photographic Portrait Through August 11, 2014 The Norton Simon Museum presents Face It: The Photographic Portrait, an
exhibition of portraits by some of the most important artist-photographers of the
20th century, including Manuel Álvarez Bravo, Diane Arbus, Imogen
Cunningham, Judy Dater and Minor White. Drawn from the Museum’s
significant collection of photographs, assembled largely in the late 1960s and
early 1970s, the 20 works on view feature a range of subjects, from the young to
the old, in varying poses and expressions, but all invoking us to look closer.
In the Land of Snow: Buddhist Art of the Himalayas Through August 25, 2014 In the Land of Snow is the Museum’s first large-scale exhibition of Himalayan
Buddhist art, bringing together exceptional Indian, Nepalese and Tibetan
Buddhist sculptures along with significant thangka (flat field) paintings from
throughout the Himalayan region. A highlight of the exhibition is the display of
a monumental thangka, measuring over 20 feet in height, depicting the Buddha
of the Future, Maitreya, flanked by the Eighth Dalai Lama, Jamphel Gyatso, and
his tutor, Yongtsin Yeshe Gyaltsen. Constructed of appliqued silk and presented
on an elaborate mounting, the thangka was commissioned by the Eighth Dalai
Lama for the benefit of his tutor and for the posterity of the Buddhist faith. This is only the second time that
this extraordinary painting has been on view at the Museum.

Color and Sound: Vasily Kandinsky and the Music of His Time Dr. Polli Chambers-Salazar Friday, July 11, 7:00–8:00 p.m. Vasily Kandinsky spoke of seeking significance in his paintings through the
musical and emotional qualities that he ascribed to color: “Color is the
medium by which one can affect the soul directly . . . the soul is a piano with
many strings, and the artist is the hand that, by striking one particular key,
causes the human soul to vibrate.” Kandinsky was progressing toward total
abstraction while many of his fellow painters were still working figuratively.
At the same time, such composers as Igor Stravinsky and Arnold Schoenberg were defying
conventional tonality while most of their contemporaries were till composing in the late Romantic
tradition. Many connections may be found between the visual and musical arts of the early 20th
century. Pianist Polli Chambers-Salazar presents a program focusing on the works of Vasily Kandinsky
and on piano works from the same time period.
Presented in the Museum’s theater.
Kalyan Samahar: Collection of Evening Ragas Based on Kalyan Thaat Sandip Ghosh Friday, August 15, 7:00–8:00 p.m. Enjoy a performance by noted North Indian classical singer Sandip
Ghosh, accompanied by Jyoti Prakas on tabla and Narendra Kulkarni on
harmonium. A thaat is a musical mode considered to be the basis for the
system of organizing and classifying ragas (melodies) in North Indian
classical music. This concert features a collection of evening ragas based on Kalyan (blessing) thaat;
these convey a mood of benevolence and devotion
Presented in the Museum’s theater.

From Beethoven’s Structure to the Fluid and Cyclical World of Debussy
California String Quartet Friday, August 22, 7:00–8:00 p.m. The California String Quartet returns to perform two starkly
contrasting pieces from the 19th century—Beethoven’s String Quartet
No. 6 in B flat major, Op. 18, and Debussy’s String Quartet in G minor,
Op. 10. The evening begins with the structure and mastery of
Beethoven, then separates from classical harmony with Debussy’s cyclical structure, sensuality and
impressionistic tonal shifts.
Presented in the Museum’s 20th-century gallery.
Musical Wonder of Nature
Robert Thies Friday, September 12, 7:00–8:00 p.m. Pianist Robert Thies explores the relationship between the composer and the
splendor of nature, as seen in art and life. Featured pieces by Debussy, Ravel,
Schubert and Liszt take inspiration from nature, as imagined by some of the
most creative minds in music.
Presented in the Museum’s theater.
Stretching the Musical Horizon of Jazz from Funk to Bossa Nova John Beasley Friday, September 19, 7:00–8:00 p.m. Jazz, America’s indigenous art form, is a metaphor for change and
innovation, as shown by its evolution of styles from ragtime to swing,
bebop, avant-garde, Latin and contemporary jazz. Pianist and music
director for the Thelonious Monk Institute John Beasley performs
works to showcase original, propulsive, multilayered compositions from funk, soul, bop, bossa nova and
nuevo tango to illustrate how he has stretched the musical horizon of jazz.
Presented in the Museum’s theater.

century bronze sculptures, from Maillol to Moore, and educator-led drawing
sessions en plein air. Or simply relax and take in the scenery, enjoying live
music and a special champagne menu for sale in the Café.
The Norton Simon Museum Presents... From Baroque to Braque
Every Wednesday in July, enjoy a tour of the Museum’s renowned French art collection, followed by a
film exploring the eras, ideas and styles discussed. Tours begin at 1:00 p.m. and are limited to 25
participants; please register at the information desk 15 minutes prior to tour. Films begin at 2:00 p.m.
and are held in the Theater. No reservations are needed.
Wednesday, July 2 Tour: Profoundly Baroque
1:00–2:00 p.m. Film: Molière (2007), PG-13 Directed by Laurent Tirard 2:00–4:00 p.m. In 1645, the French playwright and actor Jean-Baptiste Poquelin—better
known as Molière— mysteriously disappeared for several weeks. This
lavish comedy drama imagines a scenario that could explain what may
have happened to him. Molière (Romain Duris) is touring the French
countryside with his traveling theater company but has yet to be
recognized as one of the Continent’s great authors (or achieve significant
financial success). When the wealthy Monsieur Jourdain (Fabrice Luchini)
offers to cover his debt, so that Molière’s theatrical talents might help
Jourdain win the heart of a certain widowed marquise, hilarity ensues.
In French, with English subtitles.

Film: Marie Antoinette (1938), NR Directed by W. S. Van Dyke and Julien Duvivier 2:00–4:30 p.m. Norma Shearer plays Marie Antoinette, the young Austrian princess
imported to marry the man who would become Louis XVI of France. With an
opulence exemplifying Hollywood’s Golden Era at its most glamorous, the
grandeur and revolutionary fervor of 18th-century France sweeps across the
screen. Tyrone Power plays Antoinette’s ardent beloved, John Barrymore is
crafty Louis XV and Robert Morley debuts as timid Louis XVI. From ballroom
to boudoir to guillotine, Marie Antoinette is a regal romantic adventure.
Wednesday, July 16 Tour: A New Vision: Art of the 19th Century 1:00–2:00 p.m.
Film: French Cancan (1955), NR Directed by Jean Renoir 2:00–3:45 p.m. Nineteenth-century Paris comes vibrantly alive in Jean Renoir’s exhilarating
tale of the opening of the world-renowned Moulin Rouge. Jean Gabin plays
the wily impresario Danglard, who makes the cancan all the rage while
juggling the love of two beautiful women—an Egyptian belly dancer and a
naive working girl turned cancan star. This celebration of life, art and the City
of Light (with a cameo by Edith Piaf) is a Technicolor tour de force by a
master of modern cinema.
In French, with English subtitles.
Wednesday, July 23 Tour: The School of Paris 1900–1940: Émigré and French Artists in the City of Light 1:00–2:00 p.m. Film: Midnight in Paris (2011), PG-13 Directed by Woody Allen 2:00–3:35 p.m. Woody Allen’s beloved romantic comedy stars Owen Wilson as Gil, a

Paris. One night, Gil steps from modern day into the Paris of the 1920s,
enjoying the company of celebrated writers and artists. Night after night he

Kathy Bates and Carla Bruni costar.
Wednesday, July 30 Tour: A Family Tour of the Art of France 1:00–2:00 p.m. Film: The AristoCats (1970), G Directed by Wolfgang Reitherman 2:00–3:20 p.m. In the heart of Paris, a kind and eccentric millionairess wills her entire estate
to Duchess, her high-society cat, and her three little kittens. Laughs and
adventure ensue as the greedy, bumbling butler pulls off the ultimate catnap
caper. Now it’s up to the rough-and-tumble alley cat, Thomas O'Malley, and
his band of swingin’ jazz cats to save the day.
ADULT DRAWING CLASSES
Considering the Figure
Artist Michael Horowitz leads classes emphasizing figure drawing. Using the Museum’s collections and
figure models as inspiration, the classes explore the figure’s basic construction and anatomy as well as
its use as a means of self-expression.
The Building Blocks of the Figure Friday, August 8, 6:00–8:00 p.m. Using simple shapes and measuring the proportions of the body,
students are introduced to the basic layout of the figure by
drawing from examples in the Museum’s Asian galleries. This class
emphasizes gesture drawing and analyzing the silhouette of a
figure.
The Torso as Central Force
Friday, August 15, 6:00–8:00 p.m. Why have artists throughout the centuries found the torso to be
one of the most expressive parts of the human body? By studying
the torso in works by Rubens and Rodin, together with that of a live model, students learn to
understand the source of the momentum or spirit of a pose that makes the figure so expressive.
Drawing the Figure in Pen Friday, August 22, 6:00–8:00 p.m. This class focuses on interpreting the figure in pen with both quick and long sketches, along
with instruction in using crosshatching techniques to give the figure shading and form. Students

study the pattern of light and dark, or chiaroscuro, in paintings by Daumier,
and then embark on their own interpretations of the lighted figure while
drawing from the sculptures of Degas.
Interpreting the Figure Friday, August 29, 6:00–8:00 p.m. In this class, students explore their personal style while drawing from a live
model. Using the works of Moore and Matisse as inspiration, students
experiment with the use of scale and cropping and the placement of the
figure in a composition.
All levels of experience are welcome. Each class is $20 ($16 for members) and is limited to 20
participants. Materials are provided. Advance registration is required and can be made at
nortonsimon.org/events.

Sunday, August 24, 11:00 a.m.–2:00 p.m. Join thangka artist Leslie Rinchen-Wongmo for an introduction to the
Tibetan art of appliqué. This workshop gives participants direct experience
with the techniques involved in creating the monumental appliqué thangka
at the center of the exhibition In the Land of Snow: Buddhist Art of the
Himalayas. Gain deep appreciation for the thangka’s intricacy and discover
the mind-steadying potential of needle and thread.
The fee of $30 ($24 for members) includes all materials and admission to
the galleries on the day of class. Space is limited. Advance registration is required and can be made at

IN STUDIO
The Art of Tapestry Artist’s Demonstration by Marta Rogoyska Thursdays, July 24, July 31, and August 7, 2:00–4:00 p.m. Tapestry has been called “the elegant art.” In a true tapestry, the
design is woven during the making, so that it forms an integral part
of the textile. Join artist/weaver Marta Rogoyska and watch her
demonstrate the making of tapestry with its mosaic of pieces of
color made up of dyed threads. Questions and comments are encouraged.
Presented in the Museum’s northeast wing. No registration is required.

Norton Simon Museum 8 Summer 2014
Join a Museum educator on select Sunday afternoons for a dynamic discussion of art.
Sacred Geometry: The Search for Perfection
Sunday, July 13, 1:00–2:00 p.m. Learn about the geometric principles that have been used by artists
throughout the world to create sacred and secular art. Artists who
created Buddhist imagery relied on manuals that specified the proper
proportions, ensuring that an image of the Buddha was equal in size to
the Buddha himself. Similarly, artists working during the Renaissance
utilized mathematical ratios, dating to antiquity, to inform their
compositions.
The Role of Still Life in Modern Art Sunday, August 17, 1:00–2:00 p.m.
Starting in the mid-19th century, the still life gradually began relinquishing its strong allegorical
associations, with which it had been conventionally aligned throughout the previous centuries. In the
hands of Courbet, Manet, Cézanne, Gauguin and Braque, among others, the still life was transformed
into an anti-narrative exercise, if not a “play” in form, as artists sought to call onlookers’ attention to the
true condition of painting: “the flat surface, the shape of the support, the properties of pigment.”
El Greco: The Link to Expressionism and Cubism
Sunday, September 14, 1:00–2:00 p.m.
Join us to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the death of the great Spanish master El Greco.
Sharing some traits with Italian Mannerism, his flame-like forms, electric colors and intense emotion
were deeply personal. All but forgotten by the 18th century, El Greco’s distinctive style was revived in
the 19th and 20th centuries. Look at and discuss works by Manet, Cézanne and Picasso through the
lens of El Greco.
