Pianist and writer Elizabeth Newkirk explores Americanism through the American Temperament, moral consciousness through the lens of American mythology, and will be performing works at the piano that attempt to give the American archetype artistic representation. Works span from the interwar period to a new world premiere by composer Stephen Webb.
The Archetype of Modern Man
The Archetype of Modern Man is four-part series developed by Houston-musician and writer Elizabeth Newkirk. The project features a philosophical narrative alongside a classical music concert and visual art program. Each presentation explores a condition of modern man: loneliness, self-reliance, Americanism, and nihilism.
