Spurlock Museum Exhibit: National Treasure: The Art of Joža Uprka from the George Drost Collection
November 5-December 1
The work of Czech artist Joža Uprka (1861–1940) documents the folk life of Southern Moravia (now in the eastern half of the Czech Republic). This selection of paintings, on loan from American collector George Drost, accompanies the production of Leoš Janáček's opera The Adventures of Little Sharp-Ears, which also uses Moravian folk costumes and settings. This exhibit is a collaboration of Lyric Theatre @ Illinois (School of Music), Illinois Theatre, the Russian, East European, and Eurasian Center, and the Spurlock Museum.
