    • Presented in collaboration with the Aspen Music Festival and School (AMFS), this free chamber concert series features one-hour performances by the most advanced AMFS students and visiting musicians in Aspen.

    • In observance of changing the iterations of the yearlong exhibition Ritual, this special event presents a piano sound bath and healing experience by award-winning composer and pianist Ravé Mehta. This free, hourlong performance invites participants to sit or lay on the ground and experience a musical journey toward a meditative state that encourages surrendering and tapping into your “flow.” Prior to the performance, Mehta and the AAM’s Nancy and Bob Magoon CEO and Director Heidi Zuckerman will engage in a conversation about flow states. Please bring a cushion or yoga mat.

      Artist Talk: Anicka Yi

      Anicka Yi was born in Seoul, South Korea, in 1971, and currently lives and works in New York. Her work uses unconventional materials and, at times, methods to engage the senses of the human body to reconfigure biological, political, and personal perceptions. She is the recipient of the 2016 Hugo Boss Prize, and her work has been the subject of solo exhibitions at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, the Fridericianum, Kassel, Germany, Kunsthalle Basel, List Visual Arts Center, MIT, and the Cleveland Museum of Art.
