ABOUT SFMOMA: NOW PLAYING
SFMOMA:
Now Playing invites artists to animate SFMOMA in unexpected
ways — and audiences to see the museum in a different light.
Partygoers will experience the atrium as a projection chamber, a
hidden annex as a bar/lounge, and artists playing the architecture.
The evenings also include hors d'oeuvres and cash bar.

Screening of Bussotti's Rara (film), with live piano

Performance of music by Bussotti, featuring Bussotti
and sfSoundGroup, curated by Luciano Chessa
In collaboration with the Italian Cultural Institute, San Francisco Cinematheque, and the Progetto Sonora-CEMAT, and inspired by Exposed: Voyeurism, Surveillance, and the Camera Since 1870, we present an evening with Italian composer and director Sylvano Bussotti, a key innovator in contemporary music since the early 1960s. We begin with the U.S. premiere of a restored print of silent Rara (film), which gathers "filmed portraits" of the Italian avant-garde, including the circle around Pier Paolo Pasolini, the expats of Julian Beck's Living Theater, and Bussotti's muse Cathy Berberian. Tonight we watch the director watch and respond to his film.
Following the screening, sfSoundGroup joins the composer to move through Bussotti's music, from Breve (1958-59), for the early electronic instrument ondes martenot, and the sizzling two-pianos duo Tableaux vivants avant La Passion selon Sade (1964), to the recent Variazione Berio (2007).
Stephanie Syjuco proffers local artists' wares at Shadowshop's Grand Opening Artist Party in conjunction with The More Things Change, and as always at Now Playing, Meatpaper magazine leads a "Food & Thought" event in the Rooftop Garden. Knead Bakery, Luce, Ozumo, The Paragon, The Terrace Room, and Tres Agaves bring free bites to the Schwab Room.

ABOUT STEPHANIE SYJUCO’S SHADOWSHOP PARTY
December
2
also marks a special opening & artists’ party for Stephanie
Syjuco’s Shadowshop, a project in the SFMOMA exhibition The More Things
Change and commissioned by the Live Art program that brings you these
NOW PLAYING events.
Shadowshop operates as an actual mom-and-pop style store embedded within the fifth floor galleries, and it stocks hundreds of artists’ multiples, small works, tchotchkes, catalogs, books, zines, media works, and other distributive creative output. Special projects will be commissioned by Packard Jennings, Juan Luna-Avin, and Imin Yeh.
For almost six months (November 20, 2010—May 1, 2011) Shadowshop will feature only local Bay Area works, give museum visitors access to a wide variety of affordable wares, and provide a snapshot of a vibrant and energetic art scene.
Support your local artists! 100% of pre-tax sales from Shadowshop go
directly to the artists. Tonight, many of those artists are in the shop
to celebrate. And Packard Jennings debuts his commission.
