Aljira, a Center for Contemporary Art was an artist-centered space in Newark, New Jersey, United States founded in 1983, designated a Major Arts Organization by New Jersey's State Council on the Arts.[1]

Aljira displayed the work of both established and emerging or under-represented artists.[2] The center also sold books, fine art and prints through an online store, and held an auction of fine art each spring.[3] Its name, an Australian Aboriginal word for dreamtime, was intended to suggest timelessness and open possibilities. In 1993, Aljira was chosen by the Federal Advisory Committee on International Exhibitions to organize the U.S. representation at the IV Bienal Internacional de Pintura in Cuenca, Ecuador.[4] The center held an annual program, Aljira Emerge, to prepare artists for the marketplace; its initial focus on painting expanded to sculpture, installation and video art. Its tenth show in 2009, E10, featured 22 active artists based in the northeast United States. [5]

Aljira closed in 2018 amid financing difficulties.[6]

Susanna (Haendel)

Susanna (HWV 66) est un oratorio en trois actes de Georg Friedrich Haendel. Le livret est en anglais et a été attribué sans certitude à Newburgh Hamilton même si on pense aujourd'hui qu'il est plutôt l'œuvre du poète et dramaturge Moses Mendes[1] (mort en 1758). L'intrigue se fonde sur l'histoire de la chaste Suzanne, telle que rapportée dans le chapitre 13 du Livre de Daniel dans l'Ancien Testament. Haendel composa la musique pendant l'été 1748 et la première eut lieu pendant la...
