The Assaggi for solo violin by the Swedish violinist and composer Johan Helmich Roman (1694–1758) are a curious collection of works: wondrously diverse, stylistically forward-looking for the 1730s, and yet they project an aura of being somewhat incomplete, almost as if they serve as a placeholder, a memory of larger, grander compositions. This project employs the Assaggi as a catalyst for creating possible sonic landscapes of this time. Performance by Andrew Wong, baroque violin, and Anders Muskens, harpsichord.

May 8 / 3:30pm-4:30pm / EMU Diamond Lake Room
Join the Center for Latino/a and Latin American Studies (CLLAS) on Thursday, May 8th in the EMU Diamond Lake Room for a research presentation by Dr. Yvette Saavedra (Associate Professor, WGSS), exploring the intersection of Chicana feminism and queer identity.

In 2024, Saavedra was awarded a CLLAS Faculty Research Grant to begin the work of expanding her award-winning article “Of Chicana Lesbian Terrorists and Lesberadas: Recuperating the Chicana Lesbian/Queer Roots of Chicana Feminist Discourse, 1970-2000,” into a full-length book.

Presented by the UO Center for Art Research CFAR Banner at 510 Oak Terry Haggerty: Finding Space Reception and Artist Discussion: Friday, May 9 from 4:00–6:00 p.m. Join us a discussion with Terry Haggerty, Kate Mondloch, Sylvan Lionni, and Tannaz Farsi. Discussion begins at 4:30 p.m.
On View: May through August 2025 Location: 510 Oak Street, Eugene, OR 97401
Finding Space is a shaped vinyl banner inviting viewers to experience a duality of perspective. In this composition, two linear structures recede from a shared central point, oscillating simultaneously between two and three dimensions. This deliberate manipulation of perspective challenges the viewer’s spatial understanding and disrupts the predictable geometry of the urban environment. By subverting the conventional rectangular format of a banner, the drawn form becomes a visual anomaly to create a momentary rupture in the visual language of the cityscape. Its suspended state suggests a transient presence, a form caught between definition and placement. This work functions as a temporary intervention, holding a moment of spatial ambiguity captive within the ongoing construction of the city. Terry Haggerty (b. 1970 in London, United Kingdom) studied at the Southend School of Art, Essex, United Kingdom and received his Bachelor of Arts at the Cheltenham School of Art, Gloucestershire, United Kingdom.
Haggerty’s work has been the subject of solo exhibitions at the Center for Contemporary Non-Objective Art, Brussels, Belgium; Von Bartha, Basel; Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, CA; Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth, TX; Norton Museum of Art, West Palm Beach, FL; PS Project Space, Amsterdam, The Netherlands; Sikkema Jenkins & Co, New York, NY; and Miles McEnery Gallery, New York, NY, among others.
