 enFew customs or traditions have endured for longer than a millennium\, bu
 t the use of icons in Russia is among them.\nIn this exhibition\, the Knig
 hts of Columbus Museum is pleased to share more than 225 examples of Russi
 an Orthodox iconography\, along with other liturgical and devotional items
 .\nIcons are often called windows into heaven because they are said to giv
 e the viewer a glimpse of the eternal realm. Many of the items are more th
 an 100 years old\, predating the Bolshevik Revolution (1917).\nWindows Int
 o Heaven\nWhen Prince Vladimir of Kiev converted to Christianity — along
  with his country — in 988 A.D.\, iconography was introduced as a means 
 of fostering religious understanding and devotion among the people of Kiev
 an Rus (present day Ukraine\, Belarus and northwest Russia). It followed t
 he strict models and formulas of the Byzantine practice from which it orig
 inated but\, through time\, developed its own distinctions and styles. Tod
 ay\, Russian Orthodox icons are renowned throughout the world.\nAs a form 
 of sacred art\, iconographers historically prayed or fasted before and dur
 ing the creation of an icon. Traditionally\, icons were painted in egg tem
 pera on wood and often accented with gold leaf or covered with ornately gi
 lt metal covers called rizas. Rich in symbolism\, they are still used exte
 nsively in Orthodox churches and monasteries\, and many Russian homes have
  icons hanging on the wall in a “beautiful” (or prayer) corner.\n“Ic
 ons have been synonymous with Christian prayer and practice for centuries\
 ,” said Supreme Knight Carl Anderson. “One of the great traditions of 
 Eastern Christianity\, icons are less well known here\, and we are pleased
  that this exhibit will enable residents of the Northeast to grow in their
  understanding of the history and religious significance of these windows 
 into heaven.”\n \nThe Museum offersFree AdmissionFree Parking\n \nHour

CONTACT:170 Whitney Ave.\nNew Haven\, CT 06511\n\n203-432-5050
DESCRIPTION:An extraordinary natural phenomenon is about to take place. Thi
 s year the 17-year cicada will emerge from colonies in undisturbed foreste
 d regions in south-central Connecticut. Expect to see and hear these fasci
 nating creatures starting at the end of May and throughout the month of Ju
 ne.\nThe species of periodical cicada that will emerge in our area this ye
 ar (Magicicada septendecim L.) spends 17 years developing underground as a
  nymph\, feeding on sap from tree roots. For a short time in early summer 
 of the 17th year\, the nymphs of the entire brood emerge around sunset\, c
 limb up tree trunks and transform into beautiful winged adults that have b
 lack bodies with red and yellow trim\, ruby-like eyes and stiff glossy win
 gs. Within a week males begin to sing a high-pitched song to attract femal
 es. After mating\, the females then carve tiny slits in small tree branche
 s and lay their eggs. Though sometimes small branches may wilt\, the cicad
 as rarely cause any significant damage to entire trees. The adult 17-year 
 cicada lives for no more than a few weeks. After mating and egg-laying\, t
 hey quickly die. When the eggs hatch later that same summer\, the tiny nym
 phs climb down and burrow into the ground to begin their long underground 
 development.\nThe Return of the 17-year Cicadas! exhibition will feature a
  timeline detailing Yale’s historical involvement in 17-year cicada emer
 gences dating back to 1843. On display will be video of the cicada emergen
 ce and live cicadas in a terrarium\, with information on their biology and
  life cycle\, as well as range maps. Find out the differences between annu
 al cicadas (the “dog-day” cicadas you see and hear in backyards every 
 year) and periodical cicadas\, and learn about the environmental effects o
 f humans on cicadas and vice versa.\nFor people who live or work in the ha
 bitat of the 17-year cicada\, its emergence sometimes causes concern. Thes
 e species emerge in vast numbers because their only defense against predat
 ors is “predator satiation” —their sheer numbers overwhelm the appet
 ites of predators. But 17-year cicadas are completely safe. They do not ki
 ll trees or other plants\, and do not sting\, bite or harm humans or other
  animals. They are even safe for pets (and us!) to eat. To preserve their 
 unique way of life\, the Yale Peabody Museum strongly discourages the use 
 of pesticides or other measures that can be harmful to these remarkable cr
 eatures.

DESCRIPTION: \nThe Yale School of Art presents an exhibition of some thirt
 y paintings made by the Italian artist Francesco Clemente (b. 1952) betwee
 n 2006 and 2008\, over the course of several extended trips to Brazil. The
 se are drawn from a large body of work from this period—both oils on can
 vas and large-format watercolors—in which Clemente explored images and t
 hemes that had been central to his art for many years\, as well as ideas a
 nd iconography indigenous to Brazil. The exhibition\, titled Clemente &gt\
 ; Brazil &gt\; Yale\, is organized by Robert Storr\, Dean of the Yale Scho
 ol of Art.\n \nAlthough a group of watercolors was shown in New York\, an
 d several oils were exhibited in Berlin a few years ago\, this is the firs
 t time that a substantial\, integrated ensemble of these works has been se
 en in the United States\, or\, for that matter\, in the Americas. The sele
 ction for this presentation includes twelve works on canvas and eighteen w
 orks on paper.
