The Bill Cosford Cinema is proud to present Mozart’s Cosi Fan Tutte, filmed at the Royal Opera House in London. A great comedy with an edge, Cosi Fan Tutte brings a classic score by Mozart to a witty story of deception and trust tested to its limit. Can two apparently faithful couples have their affections altered by some apparently harmless deception? Jonathan Miller’s ever-popular production updates the 18th century to today. While fashions and technology may have changed since Mozart’s time, human behavior remains as fickle and manipulative as ever. The film screens at 12 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday, November 27 and 28. Admission is $18 for seniors, University of Miami alumni, faculty, non-UM students, and staff. General admission is $20. Cash only. Free for UM students. For more information, visit www.cosfordcinema.com or call 305-284-4861.

This story begins when Jose finds out that Nora, the woman he’d been married to for 30 years and then divorced, has committed suicide. The rabbi explains to Jose that owing to the celebration of the Passover holiday, together with a few other factors, if Nora is not buried that same day, they will have to wait almost five days to be able to carry out the burial. It turns out that before she died, Nora devised a Machiavellian plan in order for him to take care of her funeral. But she missed something; a mysterious photograph left under the bed will lead to an unexpected outcome, reminding viewers that sometimes the greatest love stories are hidden in the smallest places. The film screens on Friday, November 26 at 7 p.m.; Saturday, November 27 at 6 and 10 p.m.; and Sunday, November 28 at 4 and 8 p.m. Admission is $6 for seniors, University of Miami alumni, faculty, non-UM students, and staff. General admission is $8. Cash only. Free for UM students. For more information, visit www.cosfordcinema.com or call 305-284-4861.

Department of Art and Art History to present exhibition by Ricardo Estanislao Zulueta

Nov ’10Nov
228

The Department of Art and Art History in UM’s College of Arts and Sciences will present a solo exhibition by Ricardo Estanislao Zulueta from November 2-28 at Wynwood Project Space, 2200-A NW 2nd Avenue, Miami. An opening reception will be held Saturday, November 13 from 6 to 10 p.m.

The exhibition features Zulueta’s impressive digital performance categorization project of more than 35 images addressing the social practice of consumerism in an era of globalization.

Zulueta’s interdisciplinary exhibition, “Domesticated Homosapiens in Traditional Costume Circa Twenty-First Century,” includes a diverse cross section of participants typically marginalized from mainstream advertising that Zulueta directs in order to create a digital record of a pseudo anthropological ethnography study. The concept deals with expanding the tradition of photographic categorization projects of the past by documenting relevant social practice today.

Zulueta has exhibited extensively nationally and internationally at such venues as the International Center for Photography, Smithsonian Institution, and the Centro Reina Sofia in Madrid. He has been awarded fellowships from the New York Foundation for the Arts, Cintas Foundation, and National Foundation for Advancement in the Arts.

For more information regarding the artist, visit www.ricardozulueta.com. A full schedule of exhibitions can be viewed at www.as.miami.edu/art. Wynwood Project Space is open from 6 to 10 p.m. every second Saturday of the month and by appointment. Admission is free. For more information about the exhibition or Wynwood Project Space, call 305-284-2543 or e-mail [email protected].
