Will MoMA Lunch Put Qatar on Radar? You get what you Pei for. Wall at WAM: Alexander Ross (Fri, May 9)
Worcester Art Museum, 55 Salisbury Street, Worcester, MA
Known for paintings that are uniquely hybrid in nature, Alexander Ross produced a project for the Museum's Wall at WAM series that adapts his imagery and technique for the second-story setting and grand scale of the Renaissance Court. The result is a new kind of hybrid based on clay elements, photography, drawing and inkjet, which creates a frieze-like expanse activating the entire sixty-seven foot wall. For all their obvious differences, Ross' mural shares with the ancient Worcester Hunt mosaic, located below, an action and aesthetic that are notable for disorienting shifts in scale, non-illusionistic space, and moments of improvisation within a system of representation. Although separated by 1500 years, the mosaic and Ross' mural powerfully emulate human emotions, then and now, about the external world. You have to see it to believe it!

Textile Heirlooms from the Indus Valley (Fri, May 9)
Worcester Art Museum, 55 Salisbury Street, Worcester, MA
The women of diverse, often nomadic ethnic and cultural groups living in the Indus Valley region (in present-day Pakistan, western India and southeastern Afghanistan) have traditionally infused their heart and soul into their elaborately embroidered garments and functional textile objects. Such vibrant textile heirlooms celebrated important family events, formed dowries and added color to daily domestic life. In the exhibition Textile Heirlooms from the Indus Valley, works dating from the late 19th to the first half of the 20th century, were assembled by the former Ambassador to Pakistan and his wife, Tom and Peggy Simons, collectors who care about conserving and honoring this folk-art tradition.
