In collaboration with Marquette University’s Homecoming 2024, the Haggerty Museum of Art will present “Concealed Language: A Plea for Help”, a concert by the Marquette University Chorus. The concert was inspired by the Haggerty’s exhibition “SOS Color Code 2024”, an indoor and outdoor installation comprised of flags and changing colored lights based on the dots and dashes of Morse code. The installation transforms the international SOS signal of distress into a sign of solidarity and connectedness and asks its viewer to reconsider how language, symbols, and color can help us find stability and safety in an uncertain world. Following similar themes, “Concealed Language: A Plea for Help” explores the emotive power of choral music and the hidden language within the featured compositions. The concert is free and open to the public.
