SUMMARY:The Alhambra in the Age of the Spanish Enlightenment
DESCRIPTION:Andrew Schulz\, Professor of Art History\, University of Arizona \nThe eighteenth century witnessed new interest in Spain’s Islamic heritage. The most significant example of this fascination with the Islamic past is a suite of thirty-one prints entitled Antigüedadesárabes de España (Arabian Antiquities of Spain)\, issued by the Madrid Royal Academy of Fine Arts in 1787. This lecture will demonstrate how this publication offers an invaluable point of entry into eighteenth-century conceptions of Islamic Iberia. \n$10; free for SMU faculty/staff/student; free for members at the Individual level and above

SUMMARY:Spanish Cinema Now+ "Premios Goya" | El 47
DESCRIPTION:El 47 (The 47)\, 2024 \nDirected by Marcel Barrena \nSpanish Cinema Now+ “Premios Goya” showcases contemporary Spanish cinema by screening three films recognized at the 39th Goya Awards. The series was organized by the Cultural Office of the Embassy of Spain in Washington\, DC\, the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID)\, and the Spanish Film Academy\, and is presented in Dallas by the Meadows Museum in collaboration with Dallas Film. \nSet in the late 1970s\, this film celebrates real-life bus driver Manolo Vital\, who performed an act of civil disobedience for his own working-class neighborhood. Tired of the Barcelona City Council claiming that public transportation couldn’t reach the impoverished area of Torre Baró because its streets were too narrow and unsafe\, Manolo hijacks his own bus\, “el 47\,” and reroutes it to prove the authorities wrong. El 47 received the awards for Best Film\, Best Supporting Actor\, and Best Supporting Actress at the 39th Goya Awards. \nSpain’s Institute of Cinematography and Audiovisual Arts rates this film ICAA 7+ (not recommended for audiences under seven years of age)\, but the Meadows Museum screening is intended for mature audiences only. \nCatalan and Spanish with English subtitles | 100 minutes \nSpace is limited\, register online in advance. \nFree

SUMMARY:Preschool Playdate: Scratch Art

SUMMARY:EXHIBITION: Manuel Álvarez Bravo: Visions of Mexico
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with Roaming Mexico: Laura Wilson comes this captivating\, intimate exhibition featuring the work of the influential Mexican photographer Manuel Álvarez Bravo (1902–2002)\, one of the most important artists in 20th-century Latin America.

The exhibition will feature more than 30 silver gelatin prints spanning from the 1920s to the 1980s\, drawn from both the Meadows’ own collection and those of esteemed institutions in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Together\, these images offer a compelling window into the artistic and cultural landscape of 20th-century Mexico. \nThis exhibition has been organized by the Meadows Museum and is funded by a generous gift from The Meadows Foundation.
