From Shanghai to Ohio: Woo Chong Yung (1898–1989)

Free Admission

Woo Chong Yung 吳仲熊 (1898–1989), also known in the United States as C.Y. Woo, was a highly accomplished painter, calligrapher, and poet from Shanghai. From the 1920s to 1949, Woo was at the center of China’s cultural world, recognized in the art circles of both Shanghai and Beijing. Faced with political persecution in the 1960s, Woo migrated to Columbus, Ohio right before the Cultural Revolution. Once in the United States, Woo became an active presence in the local community, teaching classes in Chinese painting and martial arts and contributing his talents to local arts councils and ethnic festivals in Columbus and central Ohio. By the end of his life, he had essentially become a living legend in Columbus.

From Shanghai to Ohio: Woo Chong Yung (1898–1989) features 88 works, including painting and calligraphy, carved seals, and a Taiji sword drawn from the collections of the Cincinnati Art Museum and The Frank Museum of Art at Otterbein University. Few of these paintings have ever been published or publicly displayed. Woo’s lifetime body of work illustrates how his remarkable experiences of emigrating from China and becoming an American utterly transformed and reshaped both his life and painti

Rodin | Response FIELD family secrets

Free Admission

Four full-scale, bronze figures by renowned sculptor Auguste Rodin (French, 1840–1917) will be on view at the Cincinnati Art Museum (CAM) this summer. Alongside them, visitors will see the culmination of a research and creative project led by artist and educator Supermrin that involved contemporary artists, University of Cincinnati (UC) undergraduates, and the breadth of CAM’s collections. Rodin | Response: FIELD family secrets will run June 14–September 8, 2024.

Rodin conceived the statues in the 1880s as part of The Burghers of Calais. One of the artist’s most revered and recognizable works, the monument commemorates six leading citizens of Calais who offered their lives to save their city in the mid-1300s.

These monumental bronzes provided the starting point for a semester-long journey of study, conversation, critique, and creation that took place across several courses at UC’s School of Art. The project was shaped through FIELD, Supermrin’s (Mrin Aggarwal) decolonial bio-art practice. The group worked to respond to Rodin’s accomplishments in sculpture and the complex history of France and its colonies at the turn of the 20th century, exploring the afterlives of modernism and colonialism through the art of today.

Rodin | Response: FIELD Family Secrets is organized by the Cincinnati Art Museum in collaboration with Supermrin and the School of Art, University of Cincinnati, and with the participation of the Iris Cantor Collection. The exhibition is sponsored by the Harold C. Schott Foundation.

Ballparks & Breweries Bus Tour

Professional baseball began in Cincinnati and this unique experience takes guests to every location where the Reds played during the 19th and 20th century, tracing the connection between historic brewing and our national pastime along the way. Beginning at the Moerlein Lager House, next to Great American Ballpark and at the site of Riverfront Stadium, we head out via bus to Union Grounds, where the undefeated 1869 Red Stockings played baseball! Avenue Grounds, Bank Street Grounds, League Park, and Palace of the Fans, we go to them all!

Crosley Field is certainly on the list, as is the original Crosley Radio Factory, where Powell Crosley built his broadcast empire before purchasing the Reds. Findlay Market’s Opening Day Parade is a Cincinnati tradition dating back more than a century and we’ll take you along the original parade route, sharing stories from the event’s past, as we head into the Brewery District to check out some of the brewing structures tied to Reds history.

Tickets include a souvenir map, showing the ballpark sites visited, and a beer or soft drink at the Moerlein Lager House when we return. One Free Child 5 & Under ticket may be selected for each full priced adult ticket sold due to the limited space available on the bus. Tours run rain or shine and the group does disembark from the bus several times in order to take a closer look at some locations, but guests are welcome to remain onboard. Don’t miss out on this new, one of a kind tour, only offered by the Brewing Heritage Trail!
