Eugene Onegin
When: Jan. 11 – 25
Where: McCaw Hall
Info: https://www.seattleopera.org/
For Tatyana, it’s love at first sight. She stays up all night baring her soul in a passionate letter to Onegin, only to suffer crushing heartbreak the next day. When he finally returns her affections, it’s too late—a rival has appeared.
With breathtaking music by Tchaikovsky (The Nutcracker, Swan Lake, 1812 Overture) and a story based on Alexander Pushkin’s masterful verse novel, Eugene Onegin is poignant Russian romance at its finest. Lush orchestrations, elegant ballroom dances, grand sets, and elaborate period costumes bring 1800s Russia to life on the McCaw Hall stage for the first time in this achingly beautiful tale of longing, remorse, and love unfulfilled.

妮可·高登 《涂改的狀態》
日期：1月24日至6月14日
地點：貝爾維尤美術館
詳情：https://www.bellevuearts.org/
高登的大型油畫畫家具有幻覺般的明晰性和技巧，她精心描繪了一個充滿實心幻想的夢境世界。 從超現實主義後的原型繪畫中，取材於木板間、沉思的孩子、狂歡節或空蕩蕩的城市景觀，然後將她的作品看似經過了超飽和的科幻/滑板朋克/迷幻感過濾器。高登對現實的描述是不斷變化的-過去，現在和後人類的未來與原始和前意識狀態交織在一起。在這些圖像前，我們重新審視最偉大的藝術家是否不需要描繪真實的事物，而是描繪事物的真實性。
Nicole Gordon “Altered States”
When: Jan. 24 – June 14
Where: Bellevue Art Museum
Info: https://www.bellevuearts.org/
A painter of hallucinatory lucidity and skill, Gordon’s large-scale canvases meticulously depict a liquid dreamscape world of all-too-solid fantasy. Drawn from post-surrealist archetypal images of wood-paneled rooms, pensive children, deserted carnival rides, or empty urban landscapes, her compositions are then seemingly run through a super-saturated sci-fi/skate-punk/psychedelic perception filter. In a record scratch, figures become their own negative, the bucolic suburban rambler is beset by pink flamingos or giant redwoods, and the world beyond the abandoned skatepark erupts into deadly flame.
