Daniel Dutton, born 1959 near Somerset, Kentucky,〔 is a contemporary artist, lyricist, composer, artistic director, and amateur filmmaker, whose work combines visual, musical, and narrative arts.〔〔 He is best known for his first opera, ''The Stone Man''.〔 During the 1980s, Dutton showed visual and video installation art at the J. B. Speed Art Museum in Louisville, Kentucky. The Speed Museum commissioned two video works from Dutton: ''A Day in the Life of the Artist'', and ''Water; an installed environment''. Dutton's work was featured as a one-man show in the rotunda of the US Congressional Office Building in 1985. In 1990, Kentucky Opera premiered Dutton's first opera, ''The Stone Man'', at the Kentucky Center for the Arts.〔 ''The Stone Man'' was followed by a four-part cycle of dance operas titled ''The Secret Commonwealth''.〔〔 These four operas; ''The Changeling and the Bear'',〔〔 ''The Road'', ''Love and Time'', and ''The Approach of the Mystery'', were staged between 1995 and 2000.〔 The first three operas were filmed and broadcast by Kentucky Educational Television.〔 Dutton's visual art work is displayed in the corporate art collections of the Brown-Forman Corporation, Louisville, KY and the LeBlond Machino company in Cincinnati. Also, they can be seen at the Berea College Art Museum, Berea, Kentucky, and the 21c Museum, Louisville, KY. In 2003, Dutton was commissioned to paint a set of 12 scenes from traditional ballads by 21c Museum, Louisville, Kentucky. The paintings, along with a book and Dutton's recordings of traditional ballads, are complementary aspects of a project titled ''Ballads of the Barefoot Mind'', which were displayed at 21C Museum in the Fall of 2006.〔 Daniel Dutton lives in Somerset, Kentucky.〔 ==References== Other sources *Tagami, Ty, "MUSICAL AMBASSADOR - MAKER OF RARE JAPANESE LUTE WILL PLAY IN SOMERSET" , ''Lexington Herald'', 20 February 1999. p. A1: "Ohashi came to Somerset to visit friends and to perform with local artist Daniel Dutton, whom he met in Japan two years ago. Dutton traveled to Japan in 1997 with a Japanese couple living in Somerset, playing old Appalachian ballads on dulcimer and guitar for a Japanese audience. Dutton, who is the artistic director and musical composer for the opera, invited Ohashi to come to Kentucky and open the show." *Unk, "'SECRET' GETTING EASIER TO FIGURE OUT", ''Lexington Herald'', 14 February 1999, p. J3: "Daniel Dutton hopes people will leave the world premiere of ''Love & Time'' - the third in his series of four opera-modern dance productions called ''The Secret Commonwealth'' saying: "I kind of understand what was happening there." The Somerset-based director/composer knows he has tested audiences with the first two chapters: ''The Changeling'' and the ''Bear and The Road''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Daniel Dutton」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
