Details:
Presented in conjunction with KAWS: FAMILY at Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Kindred is a chamber music program that explores the many ways we define, inherit, and reinvent family. Just as KAWS bridges fine art, street art, and commercial culture, the composers featured—Bach, Beethoven, Ravel, Milhaud, Price, and Rheinberger—were innovators of their time, expanding the boundaries of their art while remaining deeply connected to tradition. At its core, Kindred reflects the idea that no two families look alike—whether bound by blood or chosen through shared experience. Bach’s intricate counterpoint, Beethoven’s revolutionary spirit, Ravel’s and Milhaud’s bold harmonic explorations, Price’s fusion of classical and African American traditions, and Rheinberger’s rich Romanticism each offer a unique lens on artistic lineage and transformation. Through this dynamic musical journey, we celebrate the connections that shape us, the evolution of artistic legacy, and the ever-expanding concept of what it means to belong. Join us for an evening where sound and visual art converge, offering a fresh perspective on family, creativity, and the ties that bind us all. Tickets are 45 (36 for members, 10 for students) , reserve your seat online or with Guest Services at (479) 657-2335 today. KAWS: FAMILY is organized by the Art Gallery of Ontario and curated by Julian Cox, Deputy Director & Chief Curator, Art Gallery of Ontario. The Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art presentation is curated by Alejo Benedetti.
