Yung's work expresses her responses to her varied cultural background. Born into a prosperous Shanghai family that fled to Brazil after the establishment of Communist China, she settled in the U.S. after attending an American college. Her work includes elements of western abstract expressionism and traditional Chinese calligraphy. The exhibit is free to the public. The program, for children ages 8 to 13, will include information on insects and a crawly craft.
Enrollment is limited and reservations are required.
The ethnic works displayed in the exhibit, which were chosen for their symbolic and universal appeal, reflect the cultural legacy of their creators, including works by Michael Brown, who is famous for the commemorative poster for the Million Man March in Washington, D.C., and Cal Massey, the first black medal designer for the U.S. Olympic Committee. What ensues is a romantic triangle between man, woman and dog. The play, part of the Pennsylvania Centre Stage summer schedule, will be performed May 21-29 at the Pavilion Theatre on the University Park campus. WCW wrestlers scheduled to appear include Lex Lugar, Ric Flair, Diamond Dallas Page and Kimberly, Kevin Nash, Rey Mysterio Jr., Chris Jericho and others. Back to top of page Christian rock groups dc Talk, whose edgy mix of rock, pop and hip-hop appeals to fans who might not ordinarily embrace Christian rock, will appear at The Bryce Jordan Center with special guest, Jennifer Knapp and The W's at 7 p.m Sunday, May 2.
