Description

The Fugu Plan walks the fine between sacred music and the avante-garde. Fronted by the elusive vocalist/composer YUKA, and accompanied by master musician Shanir Ezra Blumenkranz, The Fugu Plan's hypnotic songs, sounds, and performances are an otherworldly live experience. The two sets will include both a classic Fugu Plan concert exploring traditions of ritual, tribal, and spiritual music through the secret customs and ancient folktales of Japan and a second set of free and wild improve that is set inside the exhibition in which YUKA and Shanir will "hack" into Root of Two in various ways, inserting objects into the pianos of the herd, hacking into the vibration system and other forms of intervention. SUPPORT Maya Dunietz: Root of Two is generously supported by commissioning sponsor, VIA Art Fund. The exhibition is also supported, in part, by the Albert and Eleanor Feldman Family Israel Foundation, Anonymous, Artis, Mellon Foundation, The Jewish Federation of Omaha, the Nebraska Arts Council and Nebraska Cultural Endowment, Omaha Steaks, and University of Nebraska Omaha's The Schwalb Center for Jewish Studies.
