Kathy Griffin Arts + CultureComedyStage Production 16 May Kathy Griffin’s take-no-prisoners comedy has earned her a large and devoted following, and plenty of detractors as well. That’s to be expected. She delights in skewering the foibles and hypocrisy of public figures, be they celebrities or politicians. Do not bring the children. Do not repeat her jokes at work. But definitely make plans to see her live and enjoy an evening of outraged and outrageous hilarity. Straz Center for the Performing Arts

Antiquities Circle Lecture: The Red and the Black Arts + Culture 19 May In this Antiquities Circle lecture, Dr. Delphine Tonglet, Assistant Curator at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, explores the vast networks between the Phoenicians, Etruscans, Greeks and others during the first millennium BCE. Though not the only type of goods exchanged—and certainly not the most important—pottery exported to Etruria, especially Corinthian and Attic black- and red-figure vases, is the most striking and famous witness of this context. For decades, scholarship analyzed this relation, its economic, artistic and cultural impact from a predominant Greek perspective, considering the Etruscan cities as a mere receptor of an acculturating Greek civilization. Bearing in mind Joseph Veach Noble’s interest for pottery techniques and starting from some of his collected pieces, this talk will place the focus on some striking cases of mutual inspiration between Etruria and Greece, focusing on the black and red-and-black appearance of the vases.
