Fellow plastinates welcome him to their fantastical world and disclose that\, as cadavers\, they are entrusted guardians of undiscovered biomedical intelligence. As a permanent plastinate\, he is assigned a new name\, Galen\, which complements his new persona as a compassionate physician. Upon probing the boundaries of his new persona\, Galen acquires the critical foreknowledge to save his high school crush\, Morgan\, who has a life-threatening genetic heart disease. Galen has only a few short days to intercede on Morgan’s behalf before the exhibit departs for a new location and his new persona fully solidifies\, erasing all memories of his past life. Moreover\, Galen must comply with the cadavers’ Code of Silence to avoid dying indefinitely and must navigate the unthinkable by mingling with the living. With the aid of his newfound plastinated comrades\, Galen sets out to save his first love\, even though he risks perishing forever. \n*** \nAccessible accommodations include a ramp entrance and elevator.

Through the medium of electroacoustic improvisation\, Clout navigates monolithic sonic territories including stringent rhythmic textures\, perforated noise\, and silence. The fringes of perception and the austere are equally laid bare when Clout is on stage. \n \nClarinetist Emily Rach Beisel will be performing a solo set to open the concert. \n \nTickets will be available for $20 at the door. Doors open at 6:30 pm. \n\n\n\nHunter Brown is a composer\, improviser\, and electronic musician based in Chicago\, Illinois. His practice is focused on creating unpredictable\, idiosyncratic\, and unruly interactions with digital technology. In particular\, he is interested in exploring the unstable material properties of digital systems though technological mediated listening and by pushing the physical mechanisms of digital technology to the threshold of failure. In Chicago\, Hunter serves as the technical director for Ensemble Dal Niente and runs the computer music focused record label Party Perfect!!! alongside collaborator Dominic Coles. He is a PhD Student at the University of Chicago. \n\n\n\nJakob Heinemann is a double bassist\, composer\, improviser and sound artist working between Chicago and Madison\, WI. My interests are wide-ranging\, but tend to center on close listening\, environmental composition\, and open collaborations with other artists. As a bass player\, I frequently perform freely improvised music\, and count myself as a member of the rich and varied community of creative musicians in Chicago. As a composer and sound artist\, I utilize field recordings\, spectral analysis\, and traditional scoring to sonify my local community\, seeking to document and understand a sense of place in a radically changing environment. I have been fortunate to work with some incredible artists over the years including Roscoe Mitchell\, Tomeika Reid\, Mike Reed\, Jim Baker\, and Dave Rempis. \n\n\n\nPhoto credit: Peter Gannushkin \nEmily Rach Beisel is a Chicago-based improviser\, composer\, educator\, curator and woodwind specialist. Beisel is known for visceral performances blending extended vocal and instrumental techniques with analogue electronics and rich bass clarinet tone. Their solo album Particle of Organs has been described as “Operatic\, wild and dark. It showcases the raw\, unadulterated power of the body and the instrument\, weaving together sounds that are both corrosive and tender.” \nAs a curator\, Beisel seeks to increase the visibility and involvement of femme\, trans and nonbinary artists in the creative music community. They founded the Pleiades Series at Elastic Arts\, presenting monthly performances along with a community-based free improvisation jam for femme and nonbinary performers. \nBeisel is a member of the contemporary ensemble Fonema Consort\, touring most recently in Brazil\, Mexico\, Minneapolis and New York and premiering works of living composers including James Dillon\, Richard Barrett and Julio Estrada. Beisel holds a Master of Music degree from Northwestern University and is a member of the American Federation of Musicians Local 10-208. \n\n\n*** \nAccessible accommodations include a ramp entrance and elevator.

Broken Yet Whole explores mending and all its implications through broken yet mended objects\, darning\, and painting. The work speaks to our human optimism and also our failures. A tender attempt to recreate the legs of a broken figurine horse or repair a damaged book demonstrates love and determination. However\, in the end\, the attempt falls short. Once broken\, we/things are never the same. At the same time\, becoming broken is inevitable and does not negate wholeness.\n \n \nThe mended objects in Broken Yet Whole come from different sources. Some are from the IMSS’s collection; others are from the artist’s own life\, such as Mend (Horses). Others yet have been gifted or loaned to the project through a call for objects\, where individuals are invited to contribute loved yet damaged domestic objects.\n \n \nThe core catalyst for the work is Gill’s own health. Gill is a stroke survivor\, and her first-hand experience of her brain repairing itself profoundly shifted her artistic practice. Gill’s experience with physical trauma and recovery is by no means unique; it is a part of our collective story. We all experience traumatic events that change our course\, demanding that we remake ourselves. Gill is invested in visualizing the complexity of healing and what mending the pieces back together might look like. She strives to create a space where we catch glimpses of our ability to mend\, transform\, and absorb change. \n \n\n\n\n\nAbout the Artist: \nTanya Gill is a multimedia artist and educator whose work explores themes of adaptation\, mending\, loss\, and resilience through object making\, painting\, drawing\, and fiber. Responding to continual transformation in ourselves and our world is at the center of her practice.\n \n \nThis spring\, Gill was the Spring 2023 Artist in Residence at the IMSS. Gill has also been a Fulbright-Nehru scholar\, as well as in residence at McDowell\, Haystack Mountain School of Craft\, and The Ragdale Foundation. Gill calls Northern California\, Northern India\, and Chicago home. Currently\, she is nestled in Chicago\, IL\, where she maintains a studio at Mana Contemporary.\n \n \nLearn More: tanyagill.com \n \n\n\nAbout the Contemporary Art Program: The International Museum of Surgical Science supports a commitment to contemporary art and artists through exhibitions and programs that use the frame of contemporary artistic practice to examine new perspectives in medical-surgical science and our relationship to the body. The Museum’s Contemporary Arts Initiative includes rotating exhibitions of contemporary art\, as well as an ongoing Artist in Residence program. \n\n\n\nThis project is partially supported by a CityArts Grant from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs & Special Events. \nThis project is supported\, in whole or in part\, by federal assistance listing number\, 21.027 awarded to the International Museum of Surgical Science by the US Treasury through the American Rescue Plan Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds in the amount of $125\,000.00\, representing 83% of total project funding. \nThis project is partially supported by a Chicago Arts Recovery Program grant from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs & Special Events. \n\n\n\nThe International Museum of Surgical Science acknowledges support from the Illinois Arts Council Agency. \n\n\n___________________________________________________________________________________________________ \nLight refreshments are included and alcohol will be served to guests with proof of age.

Doors open 6:30pm \n \n\n\nYou Are The Garden embodies the importance and beauty of compassion\, listening\, and intentionality through their combined voice. \nAndy Danstrom leads the group with his unconventional scores and notation\, but beyond his composing\, the band’s music becomes the product of all the members. \nTogether\, they create music that’s like observing plants grow and looking inward. Simple ideas interlock and kaleidoscope together to grow blankets and landscapes of sound that slip away after the show\, but spread pollen around to invoke self-love\, inspiration\, and contentedness. \nIt’s holy music\, it’s lovely\, it’s magical. It’s the sound of caring. \n\n\n\nDrawler is a pedal steel led project by Jordan Martins with elements of free improvisation\, country ish melodies and note bending\, and a healthy amount of minimalist/hypnotic patterns. Collaborators in this ensemble include Quin Kirchner\, Matt Ulery\, Peter Maunu\, Macie Stewart and others. \nFor this performance Martins will be joined by Quin Kirchner on drums\, Peter Maunu on violin and Jason Roebke on bass. \n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n___________________________________________________________________________________________________ \nAccessible accommodations include a ramp entrance and elevator.
