DESCRIPTION:South Street Seaport Museum\n2019 SUMMER SEASON\nbeginning May 25\, 2019 \nNew Exhibition:\nThe Printed Port at Bowne Printers\nPublic Sails Now Available on W.O. Decker and Pioneer\nNew Tours of the Hull of Wavertree \nThe South Street Seaport Museum’s 2019 Summer Season begins on May 25\, 2019 with three new initiatives: a new exhibition The Printed Port at the Museum’s printing office\, Bowne & Co.\,; public sails on both W.O. Deckerand Pioneer; and\, for the first time\, access to the hull of Wavertree for tours. Museum tickets are $20 ($14 for seniors and students\, children under 8 NOW FREE) and can be purchased at www.southstreetseaportmuseum.org. The South Street Seaport Museum is located at 12 Fulton Street\, NYC\, 10038. \nNew Exhibition: The Printed Port\nThe Printed Port illuminates an industry central to the development of New York City: job printing. Printers were a mammoth force in the 19th-century Port of New York; they produced all manner of printed materials for the businesses flourishing on South Street\, including those in the maritime trades. The South Street Seaport Museum’s printing office\, Bowne & Co.\, was one of hundreds of shops that made up New York’s first neighborhood. The exhibition features original and reproduced artifacts from the South Street Seaport Museum’s collection\, including working printing presses. A survey of printed ephemera presents the tools and techniques involved in their production. The museum’s working collection artifacts are activated daily\, where the professional printing staff at Bowne & Co. host live demonstrations and workshops. \nNEW: Visit the Cargo Hold of Wavertree\nIncluded in the price of admission\, the South Street Seaport Museum now offers a new level of acesss to Wavertree\, a 130-year-old ship built of riveted wrought iron and the iconic centerpiece of the “Street of Ships” at South Street. For the first time\, visitors can take a tour into the belly of the ship to view the breathtaking main cargo area. Tours will be conducted into the massive lower hold space to a viewing platform. Tickets are available at https://web.ovationtix.com/trs/pr/957100. \nNEW: Cruise on W.O. Decker\nTake a 45-minute ride on New York’s last working New-York-built wooden tugboat W.O. Decker and see the lower Manhattan skyline like never before. Decker will cruise the tip of lower Manhattan\, giving its riders stunning views of the skyline\, Battery Park\, Castle Clinton National Monument and river views of One World Trade Center. For the first time\, Decker will be available for public sails on Saturdays and Sundays beginning May 25. Tours can be booked in advance\, $35 with pre-paid museum admission ($29 for seniors and students\, $15 for children.) Tickets are available at https://web.ovationtix.com/trs/pr/1011575. \nPioneer Sailing Season 2019\nSail the New York Harbor aboard the 1885 Schooner Pioneer\, an award-winning sail training vessel teaching volunteers of all kinds\, traditional maritime skills\, and the art of tall ship sailing. Visitors can board Pioneer for 2-hour or 3-hour day and evening cruises as she sails New York Harbor May through October. Pioneer offers special sails and programs and is available for private charter throughout her season. Trips must be booked in advance\, $42 for a 2-hour sail or $55 or a 3-hour sail with pre-paid museum admission. ($32 for 2-hour sail or $45 for 3-hour sail without museum admission.) Tickets are available at https://web.ovationtix.com/trs/pr/986323/prm/BookEarly2019. \nMaritime Song Sessions Aboard Wavertree\nJoin for maritime singing sessions each first Sunday from May to September aboard Wavertree. Purchase of admission required. Click here for tickets to the next session on June 2 from 2-4:30pm. \nOn-Going Exhibition:\nMillions: Migrants and Millionaires aboard the Great Liners\, 1900-1914\, familiarizes viewers with passenger life aboard ocean liners\, the defining differences between travel for wealthy Americans in First Class and future Americans immigrating to the United States in Third Class\, and the continuing importance that immigration plays in American history. Millions is one of the first exhibitions to examine\, side-by-side\, the dichotomy between First Class and Third-Class passengers aboard ocean liners in the early 20th century. From 1900 to 1914\, nearly 13 million immigrants traveling in Third Class arrived in the United States. During this same period\, America’s wealthiest citizens\, totaling no more than a hundred thousand passengers each year\, traveled to Europe in First Class\, spending over $11.5 billion (2017) on luxury vacations. Even though First Class and Third Class sailed on the same ships\, their journeys were worlds apart. This exhibition will feature both original and reproduced artifacts from the South Street Seaport Museum’s permanent collection including ocean liner memorabilia and ephemera\, ceramics\, and luggage trunks from both immigrants and First-Class passengers. The exhibition will highlight a few ship models of New York Harbor working vessels that played critical roles in immigration\, including a model of the Museum’s lightship Ambrose (LV-87). \nNight at the Museums\nSpend the evening visiting museums and historic sites in lower Manhattan\, where New York’s history and culture begin! On Tuesday\, June 25 from 4-8pm\, Bowne & Co.\, located at 209-211 Water Street\, will highlight selected examples that show the breadth and brilliance of 19th-century letterpress printing\, as well as demonstrate with equipment not regularly on public view.Night at the Museums is produced by the Downtown Cultural Associationand is part of the River to River Festival 2019\, featuring free arts events from June 18 to 29\, 2019 throughout Lower Manhattan. \nABOUT THE SHIPS\nIn the days before paved roads\, small coastal schooners such as Pioneer were the delivery trucks of their era\, carrying various cargoes between coastal communities: lumber and stone from the islands of Maine\, brick on the Hudson River\, and oyster shell on the Chesapeake Bay. Almost all American cargo sloops and schooners were wood\, but because she was built in what was then this country’s center of iron shipbuilding\, Pioneer had wrought-iron hull. She was the first of only two cargo sloops built of iron in this country and is the only iron-hulled American merchant sailing vessel still in existence. \nBy 1930\, when new owners moved her from the Delaware River to Massachusetts\, she had been fitted with an engine\, and was no longer using sails. In 1966 she was substantially rebuilt and turned into a sailing vessel once again. Today she plies the waters of NY Harbor carrying adults and children instead of cargo in her current role as a piece of “living history.” \nThe 1885 ship Wavertree has a well-documented and fascinating history. Built in Southampton\, Great Britain\, she circled the globe four times in her career\, carrying a wide variety of cargoes. The ship called on New York in 1896\, no doubt one of hundreds like her berthed in the city. In 1910\, after thirty-five years of sailing\, she was caught in a Cape Horn storm that tore down her masts and ended her career as a cargo ship. She was salvaged and used as a floating warehouse and then a sand barge in South America\, where the waterfront workers referred to her as “el gran Valero\,” the great sailing ship\, because even without her masts she was obviously a great windjammer. She was saved by the Seaport Museum in 1968 and towed to New York to become the iconic centerpiece of the “Street of Ships” at South Street. The 130-year-old Wavertree\, built of riveted wrought iron\, is an archetype of the sailing cargo ships of the latter half of the 19th century that\, during the “age of sail\,” lined South Street by the dozens\, creating a forest of masts from the Battery to the Brooklyn Bridge. \nW.O. Decker\, the last surviving\, New York built\, wooden steam tugboat (later refit with a diesel engine.)\, was built in 1930 by the Newtown Creek Towing Company and originally named Russell I\, after the towing company’s owners. She was renamed W.O. Decker in 1946 after being sold to the Decker family’s Staten Island tugboat firm. The tugboat was donated to the Seaport Museum in 1986 and was refit with a diesel engine. Decker is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is an exemplary model of the types of steam tugs that were once an abundant sight in New York Harbor. This unique vessel is a true testament to New York City’s maritime heritage\, which is a direct factor in the city’s global prominence today. \nBowne & Co.\, Stationers\, New York’s oldest operating business under the same name. Bowne & Co. was established by Robert Bowne in 1775 and grew as a financial printer throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. In 1975\, Bowne & Co. Inc. partnered with the Seaport Museum to open a 19th-century-style print shop at 211 Water Street in the South Street Seaport Historic District. \nABOUT SOUTH STREET SEAPORT MUSEUM\nThe South Street Seaport Museum\, located in the heart of the historic seaport district in New York City\, preserves and interprets the history of New York as a great port city. Founded in 1967\, and designated by Congress as America’s National Maritime Museum\, the Museum houses an extensive collection of works of art and artifacts\, a maritime reference library\, exhibition galleries and education spaces\, working nineteenth century print shops\, and an active fleet of historic vessels that all work to tell the story of “Where New York Begins.” \n

Printers were a mammoth force in the 19th-century Port of New York; they produced all manner of printed materials for the businesses flourishing on South Street\, including those in the maritime trades. The South Street Seaport Museum’s printing office and stationers\, Bowne & Co. was one of hundreds of shops that made up New York’s first neighborhood. The exhibition features original and reproduced artifacts from the South Street Seaport Museum’s collection\, including working printing presses. A survey of printed ephemera presents the tools and techniques involved in their production. The museum’s working collection artifacts are activated daily\, where the professional printing staff at Bowne & Co. host live demonstrations and workshops. Entrance to this exhibit is included with Museum admission https://web.ovationtix.com/trs/pr/957100. \nNEW: Visit the Cargo Hold of Wavertree\nIncluded in the price of admission\, the South Street Seaport Museum now offers a new level of acesss to Wavertree\, a 130-year-old ship built of riveted wrought iron and the iconic centerpiece of the “Street of Ships” at South Street. For the first time\, visitors can take a tour into the belly of the ship to view the breathtaking main cargo area.

From 1900 to 1914\, nearly 13 million immigrants traveling in Third Class arrived in the United States. During this same period\, America’s wealthiest citizens\, totaling no more than a hundred thousand passengers each year\, traveled to Europe in First Class\, spending over $11.5 billion (2017) on luxury vacations. Even though First Class and Third Class sailed on the same ships\, their journeys were worlds apart. This exhibition features both original and reproduced artifacts from the South Street Seaport Museum’s permanent collection including ocean liner memorabilia and ephemera\, ceramics\, and luggage trunks from both immigrants and First-Class passengers. The exhibition will highlight a few ship models of New York Harbor working vessels that played critical roles in immigration\, including a model of the Museum’s lightship Ambrose (LV-87). \nBowne & Co.\, Stationers\, New York’s oldest operating business under the same name. Bowne & Co. was established by Robert Bowne in 1775 and grew as a financial printer throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. In 1975\, Bowne & Co. Inc. partnered with the Seaport Museum to open a 19th-century-style print shop at 211 Water Street in the South Street Seaport Historic District. \nABOUT SOUTH STREET SEAPORT MUSEUM\nThe South Street Seaport Museum\, located in the heart of the historic seaport district in New York City\, preserves and interprets the history of New York as a great port city. Founded in 1967\, and designated by Congress as America’s National Maritime Museum\, the Museum houses an extensive collection of works of art and artifacts\, a maritime reference library\, exhibition galleries and education spaces\, working nineteenth century print shops\, and an active fleet of historic vessels that all work to tell the story of “Where New York Begins.” \n

SUMMARY:CARTER BURDEN GALLERY CELEBRATES 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY  WITH NEW EXHIBITIONS BY RE-EMERGING OLDER ARTISTS
DESCRIPTION:This October the Carter Burden Gallery will celebrate its 10 year anniversary. The Gallery will display three new exhibitions featuring the unique artwork of re-emerging older artists from September 12 – October 9\, 2019 at its space at 548 West 28th Street #534 in Manhattan. The Carter Burden Gallery showcases the vibrant\, cutting-edge and transformative art that is the product of the unique cultural wealth possessed by older professional artists. \nIn the East Gallery\, the exhibition “Lines\, Forms\, Substance” will feature sculptures and abstract painting by Joan Mellon and Sumayyah Samaha. In her seventh exhibition with the gallery\, Mellon presents various sculptures from her series Substance and Space\, which explores how physical objects live in a space.

Her works is on display in private and public collections in NYC\, including the Franklin Furnace Archives at the Museum of Modern Art\, the New York Public Library Print Collection and the School of Visual Arts. \nSamaha presents energetic abstract paintings from her series Lines and Forms for her fifth exhibition at Carter Burden Gallery. Her paintings include playful shapes\, filled with rich colors\, that are connected by bold lines to create a boundary between the negative spaces on the canvas. Samaha uses oil paint and charcoal to create the texture and defining lines found on the piece.

This is one of the projects that marks the Art Alliance at University of the Arts’ programmatic debut. The Library is FREE and open to the public. Advance registration will be available at www.temporaryliveness.org in mid-August. \nThe Library is home to nora chipaumire’s #PUNK 100% POP N!GGA\, a three-part live-performance album inspired by chipaumire’s formative years in Zimbabwe during the ’70s\, ’80s and ’90s. It explores the sonic ideologies of punk\, pop and Congolese rumba\, through the iconic artists Patti Smith\, Grace Jones and Rit Nzele\, respectively. Each part is embedded with a lecture or history lesson that explores how knowledge can be shared through live performance. \nThe Library\nRead\, and be read in return\, in nora chipaumire’s three-part live-performance album. \n#PUNK | Wednesday\, Sept. 25 | 7 p.m.\n100% POP | Thursday\, Sept. 26 | 9 p.m.\n*N!GGA | Friday\, Sept. 27 | 6 p.m.\n#PUNK 100% POP *N!GGA | Saturday\, Sept. 28 | 8 p.m.\n#PUNK | Monday\, Sept. 30 | 7 p.m.\n100% POP *N!GGA | Tuesday\, Oct. 1 | 8 p.m. \n#PUNK 100% POP N!GGA is a live performance album inspired by chipaumire’s formative years in Zimbabwe during the ’70s\, ’80s and ’90s. The triptych explores three sonic ideologies: punk\, pop and rumba\, confronted and celebrated through iconic artists Patti Smith\, Grace Jones and Rit Nzele\, respectively. Each part is embedded with a kind of lecture or history lesson that experiments with how knowledge can be shared through live performance. \nchipaumire’s work questions how status and power are experienced and presented through the body. For those\, as she remarks\, born without property\, name or class\, the human body poses a possible salvation\, a manifesto or a vehicle for potential self-invention and self-determination. #PUNK 100% POP *N!GGA is a continuation of chipaumire’s career-long investigation of portraiture and self-portraiture\, biography\, subjecthood\, liberation and independence. \nConceived and Choreographed by nora chipaumire\nPerformed by nora chipaumire with Shamar Watt\, David Gagliardi and Atiyyah Khan\nSound\, Light\, Costume Concept\, Text\, Script by nora chipaumire\nSound Research\, Construction\, Assemblage by nora chipaumire with Shamar Watt\nSound Design by Philip White\nTechnical Direction by Sean Seago (EU) and Heidi Eckwall (US)\nSet Design by Ari Marcopoulos\, Kara Walker and Matt Jackson Studio \n*Related Study Hall Events\nTalk by Rizvana Bradley | Sunday\, Sept. 30 | 2:30 p.m.\nStudy Hall | Wednesday\, Oct. 2 | 4-8 p.m. \nBorn in Mutare\, Zimbabwe and based in NYC\, nora chipaumire has been contesting and embracing stereotypes of Africa\, the black performing body\, art and aesthetics since she started making dances in 1998. chipaumire is currently touring “#PUNK 100%POP *N!GGA\,” a three-part live performance album which had its world premiere at The Kitchen in NYC in October 2018. Her current and ongoing work includes a digital book project\, “nhaka”-a theory\, technology\, practice and process. She is working on an upcoming opera entitled “Nehanda” (2020). chipaumire is a 2018 Guggenheim Fellow and a three-time Bessie Award winner. \nThe School for Temporary Livenessis a week-long series of performances\, workshops\, lectures\, and conversations inhabiting the poetic frame of a school. Supported by The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage\, The School for Temporary Liveness brings together an international roster of artists and scholars working in dance\, visual art\, poetry\, music and more\, including nora chipaumire\, Isabel Lewis\, Colin Self\, Simone White and Jackie Wang\, among others. Open to the public from 4 to 10pm daily with a 24-hour cycle over the weekend\, The School for Temporary Liveness consists of three zones of encounter: The Classroom\, The Library and Study Hall\, and invites anyone who participates to consider themselves a student\, and to engage in new forms of spectatorship and ways of being together. \n“If we think of the whole operation of a school as a performance\, how does that change the ways we teach and learn\, or what we think of as knowledge?” said curator Lauren Bakst. “The School for Temporary Liveness engages the theatre of a school while looking to performances themselves as sites of knowledge\, so that we might engage with the public in critically reflecting on and imagining what a school can do and be.” \nAlso Upcoming at The School for Contemporary Liveness:\nThe Classroom features a new commission by Isabel Lewis\, who will create a site-specific piece bringing together the work of Berlin-based musical entity LABOUR\, scientists from Monell Chemical Senses Center\, and local musicians and Philadelphia-based dancers. The Classroom\, a contemporary social ritual through which various bodily and sensorial knowledges are discovered and experienced. \nStudy Hall includes workshops\, lectures\, conversations and new formats for study led by practitioners considering the constraints and possibilities of liveness\, living and life from various perspectives. Watch\, listen\, speak\, practice and reflect with Rizvana Bradley\, Jarrett Earnest\, Brooke Holmes\, Tiona Nekkia McClodden\, Colin Self\, Ulises\, Jackie Wang\, Simone Whiteand others. In addition to these programs\, Study Hall will remain open throughout the week as a space for knowledge-exchange where anyone can sign up to be a teacher\, student or witness. \nThe School for Temporary Liveness allows participants to create class schedules for themselves and compile a series of performances and events they attend throughout the week. The School for Temporary Liveness re-positions spectatorship as an active learning (or un-learning) process and performance as a site for the production and exchange of alternative knowledges. Anyone can be a student. \nThe School for Temporary Liveness is presented by University of the Arts School of Dance. This project has been supported by The Pew Center for Arts & Heritage. \nThe Classroom\nDiscover new bodily knowledges through a contemporary social ritual with Isabel Lewis. \nWednesday\, Sept. 25 | 8 p.m.\nThursday\, Sept. 26 | 4 p.m.-6 p.m.\nFriday\, Sept. 27 | 8 p.m.-10 p.m.\nSaturday\, Sept. 28 | 4 p.m-6 p.m.\nMonday\, Sept. 30 | 7 p.m.-9 p.m.\nTuesday\, Oct. 1 | 4 p.m.-6 p.m \nFor Existing Otherwise: Expanded Sensorial Walk (251 S. 18th Street\, Philadelphia)\, Isabel Lewis\, joined by long-standing collaborators musical entity LABOUR\, engages a cast of Philadelphia-based dancers\, scientists from the Monell Chemical Senses Center and local musicians in the creation of a new site-specific work for the ground floor of the historic Philadelphia Art Alliance building on Rittenhouse Square. This work takes the form of a walk that invites visitors to move from a nearby outdoor location through the rooms of the ground floor of the former Wetherill Mansion-cum-multidisciplinary arts center and social club. Using spoken address\, scent\, music and choreography\, Lewis and her collaborators unfold a poetic rumination on American stories of race and class via the subtle engagement of the senses rather than the violence of (re)presentation. \n*Related Study Hall Events\nConversation with Isabel Lewis and Brooke Holmes | Saturday\, Sept. 28 | 6 p.m.\nConversation with local experts | Sunday\, Sept. 29 | 11:30 a.m.\nStudy Hall | Wednesday\, Oct. 2 | 4-8 p.m. \nIsabel Lewis (b. 1981) is a Berlin-based artist born in Santo Domingo\, Dominican Republic\, and was raised on a manmade island off the coast of southwest Florida. Before relocating to Berlin in 2009\, she lived in New York City for several years where she was very active in the dance scene\, involved with Movement Research\, and danced for many choreographers\, showing her own commissioned works at The Kitchen\, Dance Theater Workshop\, New Museum\, Danspace Project at St. Mark’s Church\, PS 122\, and the Dia Art Foundation. Trained in literary criticism\, dance and philosophy\, her work takes on many different formats\, from lecture performances to workshops\, music sessions\, parties\, hosted occasions and large-scale artistic/programmatic works like “The Institute for Embodied Creative Practices” and her recent series of public workshops and activations for Basel’s Messeplatz called “Urban Flourishing.” Her work has been presented at Centre d’Art Contemporain Genève\, Kunsthalle Basel\, Frieze London\, Liverpool Biennial\, the Institute of Contemporary Arts London (ICA)\, Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo Turin\, Tanz im August Berlin\, Göteborg International Biennial for Contemporary Art\, Palais de Tokyo\, Tate Modern London and Ming Contemporary Art Museum Shanghai.

Sign up to be a teacher\, student\, or witness onsite at the Philadelphia Art Alliance during school hours. \nA selection of confirmed offerings is included below.\nOrientation: The School for Temporary Liveness\nThe School for Temporary Liveness Team\nWednesday\, Sept. 25 | 6:00 p.m. \nJoin the Study Hall for an opening gesture of orientation to begin The School for Temporary Liveness. \nWorkshop Series: XOIR\nColin Self\nSession #1 | Thursday\, Sept. 26 | 5:30-7:00 p.m.\nSession #2 | Friday\, Sept. 27 | 4:00-6:00 p.m.\nSession #3 | Saturday\, Sept. 28 | 6:00-8:00 p.m.\nSession #4 | Sunday\, Sept. 29 | 11:30 a.m.-1:00 p.m. \nColin Self will lead a series of XOIR sessions weaving together group singing with dialogue and shared research. Source materials will include texts and concepts by Anne Carson\, Dr. Bessel van der Kolk\, Jon Lindblom\, Mark Fisher\, Ursula K. Le Guin and Hannah Hurtzig. XOIR (pronounced choir) is rooted in collectively building an alternative form of group singing outside the traditional canon of notated sheet music. Previous participation with group singing or music practice is not required and this series will seek to expand vocal inquiry across diverse backgrounds\, providing an expansive potential for exploring the voice as a somatic tool for learning. Curiosity over expertise\, willingness over skill. \nTalk: The Intelligence of Hands\nJarrett Earnest\nThursday\, Sept. 26 | 7:30 p.m.\n“The aptitudes of hands are written in their touching and holding. The aptitudes of hands are written in their curves and structures\,” wrote art historian Henri Focillon. Shifts in technology necessitate new consideration of previously naturalized experiences. For instance: in the twenty-first century\, our most sophisticated tool-the hand-is increasingly reduced to a mere scrolling agent\, from finger tip of the index finger. This lecture examines the role of the human hand in the history of images and its relevance to contemporary art. \nWorkshop: “Wisdom can only be passed on by the touching of hands”\nJarrett Earnest\nSaturday\, Sept. 28 | 4:00-6:00 p.m.\nThis workshop expands on ideas from “The Intelligence of Hands” in experiential form. The title is taken from a plaque beneath a bronze cast of Genesis P-Orridge’s piece “Touching of Hands\,” words spoken to he/r by Brion Gysin. As a group we will make life-casts of our hands\, which will form the conceptual basis for individual projects that can include photography\, drawing or performance\, and which will be shared at the end of the session. Inspiration will come through the discussion of artworks by Yvonne Rainer\, Carolee Schneemann\, Rebecca Horn and Avram Finkelstein\, among others. \nConversation: Co-creating presence(s) and past(s)\nBrooke Holmes and Isabel Lewis\nSaturday\, Sept. 28 | 6 p.m.\nBrooke Holmes and Isabel Lewis explore the question: How do we forge lives together in relationship to pasts that are neither fully shared nor fully individual? The conversation begins with an exploration of the ancient concept of “sympathy\,” a Greek word that affirms the possibility of being affected together without erasing the boundaries of specific bodies\, with their specific histories and specific compositions.  It moves into an experiment in dialogue as a form of “temporary liveness\,” where conversation is a particular kind of space for sustaining sympathy\, all the while considering the many layered pasts of The School for Temporary Liveness as common ground. \nTalk: Carceral Temporalities\nJackie Wang\nSunday\, Sept. 29 | 1:30 p.m.\nContemporary politics of safety are strongly linked to forms of empathetic identification. Infrastructures of algorithmic policing define who is worthy of feeling safe and secure and enact or suspend one’s future. A language of comfort acknowledges those considered innocent and pure and justifies violence for others. But what about the lives being paused and no longer acknowledged? Prison abolitionist\, poet\, writer and performer Jackie Wang has been examining this question as part of her work on “carceral capitalism.” At her talk\, she will discuss how carceral temporalities are brutally imposed and emphasize the potential to escape and disrupt time. Drawing inspiration from the work of Moor Mother and the Black Quantum Futurism Collective\, she will explore modes of inhabiting time that undermine carceral temporalities. \nReading Room by Ulises\nHow might the performance of the body inform our understanding of the circulation of books?

Trained in literary criticism\, dance and philosophy\, her work takes on many different formats\, from lecture performances to workshops\, music sessions\, parties\, hosted occasions and large-scale artistic/programmatic works like “The Institute for Embodied Creative Practices” and her recent series of public workshops and activations for Basel’s Messeplatz called “Urban Flourishing.” Her work has been presented at Centre d’Art Contemporain Genève\, Kunsthalle Basel\, Frieze London\, Liverpool Biennial\, the Institute of Contemporary Arts London (ICA)\, Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo Turin\, Tanz im August Berlin\, Göteborg International Biennial for Contemporary Art\, Palais de Tokyo\, Tate Modern London and Ming Contemporary Art Museum Shanghai.

The triptych explores three sonic ideologies: punk\, pop and rumba\, confronted and celebrated through iconic artists Patti Smith\, Grace Jones and Rit Nzele\, respectively. Each part is embedded with a kind of lecture or history lesson that experiments with how knowledge can be shared through live performance. \nchipaumire’s work questions how status and power are experienced and presented through the body. For those\, as she remarks\, born without property\, name or class\, the human body poses a possible salvation\, a manifesto or a vehicle for potential self-invention and self-determination. #PUNK 100% POP *N!GGA is a continuation of chipaumire’s career-long investigation of portraiture and self-portraiture\, biography\, subjecthood\, liberation and independence. \nConceived and Choreographed by nora chipaumire\nPerformed by nora chipaumire with Shamar Watt\, David Gagliardi and Atiyyah Khan\nSound\, Light\, Costume Concept\, Text\, Script by nora chipaumire\nSound Research\, Construction\, Assemblage by nora chipaumire with Shamar Watt\nSound Design by Philip White\nTechnical Direction by Sean Seago (EU) and Heidi Eckwall (US)\nSet Design by Ari Marcopoulos\, Kara Walker and Matt Jackson Studio \n*Related Study Hall Events\nTalk by Rizvana Bradley | Sunday\, Sept. 30 | 2:30 p.m.\nStudy Hall | Wednesday\, Oct. 2 | 4-8 p.m. \nBorn in Mutare\, Zimbabwe and based in NYC\, nora chipaumire has been contesting and embracing stereotypes of Africa\, the black performing body\, art and aesthetics since she started making dances in 1998. chipaumire is currently touring “#PUNK 100%POP *N!GGA\,” a three-part live performance album which had its world premiere at The Kitchen in NYC in October 2018. Her current and ongoing work includes a digital book project\, “nhaka”-a theory\, technology\, practice and process.

Sign up to be a teacher\, student\, or witness onsite at the Philadelphia Art Alliance during school hours. \nA selection of confirmed offerings is included below.\nOrientation: The School for Temporary Liveness\nThe School for Temporary Liveness Team\nWednesday\, Sept. 25 | 6:00 p.m. \nJoin the Study Hall for an opening gesture of orientation to begin The School for Temporary Liveness. \nWorkshop Series: XOIR\nColin Self\nSession #1 | Thursday\, Sept. 26 | 5:30-7:00 p.m.\nSession #2 | Friday\, Sept. 27 | 4:00-6:00 p.m.\nSession #3 | Saturday\, Sept. 28 | 6:00-8:00 p.m.\nSession #4 | Sunday\, Sept. 29 | 11:30 a.m.-1:00 p.m. \nColin Self will lead a series of XOIR sessions weaving together group singing with dialogue and shared research. Source materials will include texts and concepts by Anne Carson\, Dr. Bessel van der Kolk\, Jon Lindblom\, Mark Fisher\, Ursula K. Le Guin and Hannah Hurtzig. XOIR (pronounced choir) is rooted in collectively building an alternative form of group singing outside the traditional canon of notated sheet music. Previous participation with group singing or music practice is not required and this series will seek to expand vocal inquiry across diverse backgrounds\, providing an expansive potential for exploring the voice as a somatic tool for learning. Curiosity over expertise\, willingness over skill. \nTalk: The Intelligence of Hands\nJarrett Earnest\nThursday\, Sept. 26 | 7:30 p.m.\n“The aptitudes of hands are written in their touching and holding. The aptitudes of hands are written in their curves and structures\,” wrote art historian Henri Focillon. Shifts in technology necessitate new consideration of previously naturalized experiences. For instance: in the twenty-first century\, our most sophisticated tool-the hand-is increasingly reduced to a mere scrolling agent\, from finger tip of the index finger. This lecture examines the role of the human hand in the history of images and its relevance to contemporary art. \nWorkshop: “Wisdom can only be passed on by the touching of hands”\nJarrett Earnest\nSaturday\, Sept. 28 | 4:00-6:00 p.m.\nThis workshop expands on ideas from “The Intelligence of Hands” in experiential form. The title is taken from a plaque beneath a bronze cast of Genesis P-Orridge’s piece “Touching of Hands\,” words spoken to he/r by Brion Gysin. As a group we will make life-casts of our hands\, which will form the conceptual basis for individual projects that can include photography\, drawing or performance\, and which will be shared at the end of the session. Inspiration will come through the discussion of artworks by Yvonne Rainer\, Carolee Schneemann\, Rebecca Horn and Avram Finkelstein\, among others. \nConversation: Co-creating presence(s) and past(s)\nBrooke Holmes and Isabel Lewis\nSaturday\, Sept. 28 | 6 p.m.\nBrooke Holmes and Isabel Lewis explore the question: How do we forge lives together in relationship to pasts that are neither fully shared nor fully individual? The conversation begins with an exploration of the ancient concept of “sympathy\,” a Greek word that affirms the possibility of being affected together without erasing the boundaries of specific bodies\, with their specific histories and specific compositions.  It moves into an experiment in dialogue as a form of “temporary liveness\,” where conversation is a particular kind of space for sustaining sympathy\, all the while considering the many layered pasts of The School for Temporary Liveness as common ground. \nTalk: Carceral Temporalities\nJackie Wang\nSunday\, Sept. 29 | 1:30 p.m.\nContemporary politics of safety are strongly linked to forms of empathetic identification. Infrastructures of algorithmic policing define who is worthy of feeling safe and secure and enact or suspend one’s future. A language of comfort acknowledges those considered innocent and pure and justifies violence for others. But what about the lives being paused and no longer acknowledged? Prison abolitionist\, poet\, writer and performer Jackie Wang has been examining this question as part of her work on “carceral capitalism.” At her talk\, she will discuss how carceral temporalities are brutally imposed and emphasize the potential to escape and disrupt time. Drawing inspiration from the work of Moor Mother and the Black Quantum Futurism Collective\, she will explore modes of inhabiting time that undermine carceral temporalities. \nReading Room by Ulises\nHow might the performance of the body inform our understanding of the circulation of books? Ulises invites you to a room for reading and reflection open throughout the duration of The School for Temporary Liveness. Housed within the Study Hall\, the reading room will gather texts that inform and extend from The School for Temporary Liveness’s curriculum and participating practitioners. \nUlises Pop-up Shop\nBrowse a selection of domestic and international titles-including independent art publications and artists’ books-on critical theory\, embodied practice\, Black radical thought and other concepts key to The School for Temporary Liveness. \nNight School\nSaturday\, Sept. 28 11 p.m.-Sunday\, Sept 29 10 a.m.\nSpend the night with us.

This project marks the Art Alliance at University of the Arts’ programmatic debut. The events are FREE and open to the public. Advance registration for programs will be available at www.temporaryliveness.org in mid-August. \nThe School for Temporary Liveness is a week-long series of performances\, workshops\, lectures\, and conversations inhabiting the poetic frame of a school. Supported by the Pew Center for Arts & Heritage\, The School for Temporary Liveness brings together an international roster of artists and scholars working in dance\, visual art\, poetry\, music and more\, including nora chipaumire\, Isabel Lewis\, Colin Self\, Simone White and Jackie Wang\, among others. Open to the public from 4 to 10pm daily with a 24-hour cycle over the weekend\, The School for Temporary Liveness consists of three zones of encounter: The Classroom\, The Library and Study Hall\, and invites anyone who participates to consider themselves a student\, and to engage in new forms of spectatorship and ways of being together. \n“If we think of the whole operation of a school as a performance\, how does that change the ways we teach and learn\, or what we think of as knowledge?” said curator Lauren Bakst. “The School for Temporary Liveness engages the theatre of a school while looking to performances themselves as sites of knowledge\, so that we might engage with the public in critically reflecting on and imagining what a school can do and be.” \nThe Classroom hosts a new commission by Isabel Lewis\, who will create a site-specific piece bringing together the work of Berlin-based musical entity LABOUR\, scientists from Monell Chemical Senses Center\, and local musicians and Philadelphia-based dancers. The Classroom is a contemporary social ritual through which various bodily and sensorial knowledges are discovered and experienced.  \nThe Library is home to nora chipaumire’s #PUNK 100% POP N!GGA\, a three-part live-performance album inspired by chipaumire’s formative years in Zimbabwe during the ’70s\, ’80s and ’90s. It explores the sonic ideologies of punk\, pop and Congolese rumba\, through the iconic artists Patti Smith\, Grace Jones and Rit Nzele\, respectively. Each part is embedded with a lecture or history lesson that explores how knowledge can be shared through live performance. \nStudy Hall includes workshops\, lectures\, conversations and new formats for study led by practitioners considering the constraints and possibilities of liveness\, living and life from various perspectives. Watch\, listen\, speak\, practice and reflect with Rizvana Bradley\, Jarrett Earnest\, Brooke Holmes\, Tiona Nekkia McClodden\, Colin Self\, Ulises\, Jackie Wang\, Simone White and others. In addition to these programs\, Study Hall will remain open throughout the week as a space for knowledge-exchange where anyone can sign up to be a teacher\, student or witness. \nThe School for Temporary Liveness allows participants to create class schedules for themselves and compile a series of performances and events they attend throughout the week. The School for Temporary Liveness re-positions spectatorship as an active learning (or un-learning) process and performance as a site for the production and exchange of alternative knowledges. Anyone can be a student. \nThe School for Temporary Liveness is presented by University of the Arts School of Dance. This project has been supported by the Pew Center for Arts & Heritage. \nThe Classroom\nDiscover new bodily knowledges through a contemporary social ritual with Isabel Lewis. \nWednesday\, Sept. 25 | 8 p.m.\nThursday\, Sept. 26 | 4 p.m.–6 p.m.\nFriday\, Sept. 27 | 8 p.m.–10 p.m.\nSaturday\, Sept. 28 | 4 p.m–6 p.m.\nMonday\, Sept. 30 | 7 p.m.–9 p.m.\nTuesday\, Oct. 1 | 4 p.m.–6 p.m \nFor Existing Otherwise: Expanded Sensorial Walk (251 S. 18th Street\, Philadelphia)\, Isabel Lewis\, joined by long-standing collaborators musical entity LABOUR\, engages a cast of Philadelphia-based dancers\, scientists from the Monell Chemical Senses Center and local musicians in the creation of a new site-specific work for the ground floor of the historic Philadelphia Art Alliance building on Rittenhouse Square. This work takes the form of a walk that invites visitors to move from a nearby outdoor location through the rooms of the ground floor of the former Wetherill Mansion-cum-multidisciplinary arts center and social club. Using spoken address\, scent\, music and choreography\, Lewis and her collaborators unfold a poetic rumination on American stories of race and class via the subtle engagement of the senses rather than the violence of (re)presentation.  \n*Related Study Hall Events\nConversation with Isabel Lewis and Brooke Holmes | Saturday\, Sept. 28 | 6 p.m.\nConversation with local experts | Sunday\, Sept. 29 | 11:30 a.m.\nStudy Hall | Wednesday\, Oct. 2 | 4-8 p.m. \nIsabel Lewis (b. 1981) is a Berlin-based artist born in Santo Domingo\, Dominican Republic\, and was raised on a manmade island off the coast of southwest Florida. Before relocating to Berlin in 2009\, she lived in New York City for several years where she was very active in the dance scene\, involved with Movement Research\, and danced for many choreographers\, showing her own commissioned works at The Kitchen\, Dance Theater Workshop\, New Museum\, Danspace Project at St. Mark’s Church\, PS 122\, and the Dia Art Foundation. Trained in literary criticism\, dance and philosophy\, her work takes on many different formats\, from lecture performances to workshops\, music sessions\, parties\, hosted occasions and large-scale artistic/programmatic works like “The Institute for Embodied Creative Practices” and her recent series of public workshops and activations for Basel’s Messeplatz called “Urban Flourishing.” Her work has been presented at Centre d’Art Contemporain Genève\, Kunsthalle Basel\, Frieze London\, Liverpool Biennial\, the Institute of Contemporary Arts London (ICA)\, Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo Turin\, Tanz im August Berlin\, Göteborg International Biennial for Contemporary Art\, Palais de Tokyo\, Tate Modern London and Ming Contemporary Art Museum Shanghai. Lewis has created works around such topics as open-source technology and dance improvisation\, social dances as cultural storage systems (“Mountain Grass\, Mountain Hare: bodily imprinting and social dances\,” 2012)\, collaborative creative formats (“Communal EPIC Fiction\,” 2010)\, future bodily techniques (“BALLISTIC BODY\,” 2011)\, and rapping as an embodied speech act (“FLOW PLAY: Sensualized Speech and Hip Hop\,” 2013) that have been presented at Serpentine Galleries\, Kampnagel and Hebbel Am Ufer\, among others. \nThe Library\nRead\, and be read in return\, in nora chipaumire’s three-part live-performance album. \n#PUNK | Wednesday\, Sept. 25 | 7 p.m.\n100% POP | Thursday\, Sept. 26 | 9 p.m.\n*N!GGA | Friday\, Sept. 27 | 6 p.m.\n#PUNK 100% POP *N!GGA | Saturday\, Sept. 28 | 8 p.m.\n#PUNK | Monday\, Sept. 30 | 7 p.m.\n100% POP *N!GGA | Tuesday\, Oct. 1 | 8 p.m. \n#PUNK 100% POP N!GGA is a live performance album inspired by chipaumire’s formative years in Zimbabwe during the ’70s\, ’80s and ’90s. The triptych explores three sonic ideologies: punk\, pop and rumba\, confronted and celebrated through iconic artists Patti Smith\, Grace Jones and Rit Nzele\, respectively. Each part is embedded with a kind of lecture or history lesson that experiments with how knowledge can be shared through live performance.	 \nchipaumire’s work questions how status and power are experienced and presented through the body. For those\, as she remarks\, born without property\, name or class\, the human body poses a possible salvation\, a manifesto or a vehicle ​for potential self-invention and self-determination. #PUNK 100% POP *N!GGA is a continuation of chipaumire’s career-long investigation of portraiture and self-portraiture\, biography\, subjecthood\, liberation and independence. \nConceived and Choreographed by nora chipaumire\nPerformed by nora chipaumire with Shamar Watt\, David Gagliardi and Atiyyah Khan\nSound\, Light\, Costume Concept\, Text\, Script by nora chipaumire\nSound Research\, Construction\, Assemblage by nora chipaumire with Shamar Watt\nSound Design by Philip White\nTechnical Direction by Sean Seago (EU) and Heidi Eckwall (US)\nSet Design by Ari Marcopoulos\, Kara Walker and Matt Jackson Studio \n*Related Study Hall Events\nTalk by Rizvana Bradley | Sunday\, Sept. 30 | 2:30 p.m.\nStudy Hall | Wednesday\, Oct. 2 | 4–8 p.m. \nBorn in Mutare\, Zimbabwe and based in NYC\, nora chipaumire has been contesting and embracing stereotypes of Africa\, the black performing body\, art and aesthetics since she started making dances in 1998. chipaumire is currently touring “#PUNK 100%POP *N!GGA\,” a three-part live performance album which had its world premiere at The Kitchen in NYC in October 2018. Her current and ongoing work includes a digital book project\, “nhaka”—a theory\, technology\, practice and process. She is working on an upcoming opera entitled “Nehanda” (2020). chipaumire is a 2018 Guggenheim Fellow and a three-time Bessie Award winner. \nStudy Hall\nWatch\, listen\, speak\, practice and reflect with Rizvana Bradley\, Jarrett Earnest\, Brooke Holmes\, Tiona Nekkia McClodden\, Colin Self\, Jackie Wang\, Ulises\, Simone White and others. \nIn addition to the programs scheduled below\, Study Hall will always be open as a space for conversation\, learning and reflection. Sign up to be a teacher\, student\, or witness onsite at the Philadelphia Art Alliance during school hours.  \nA selection of confirmed offerings is included below.\nOrientation: The School for Temporary Liveness\nThe School for Temporary Liveness Team\nWednesday\, Sept. 25 | 6:00 p.m. \nJoin the Study Hall for an opening gesture of orientation to begin The School for Temporary Liveness. \nWorkshop Series: XOIR\nColin Self\nSession #1 | Thursday\, Sept. 26 | 5:30–7:00 p.m.\nSession #2 | Friday\, Sept. 27 | 4:00–6:00 p.m.\nSession #3 | Saturday\, Sept. 28 | 6:00–8:00 p.m.\nSession #4 | Sunday\, Sept. 29 | 11:30 a.m.–1:00 p.m. \nColin Self will lead a series of XOIR sessions weaving together group singing with dialogue and shared research. Source materials will include texts and concepts by Anne Carson\, Dr. Bessel van der Kolk\, Jon Lindblom\, Mark Fisher\, Ursula K. Le Guin and Hannah Hurtzig. XOIR (pronounced choir) is rooted in collectively building an alternative form of group singing outside the traditional canon of notated sheet music. Previous participation with group singing or music practice is not required and this series will seek to expand vocal inquiry across diverse backgrounds\, providing an expansive potential for exploring the voice as a somatic tool for learning. Curiosity over expertise\, willingness over skill.  \nTalk: The Intelligence of Hands \nJarrett Earnest\nThursday\, Sept. 26 | 7:30 p.m.\n“The aptitudes of hands are written in their touching and holding. The aptitudes of hands are written in their curves and structures\,” wrote art historian Henri Focillon. Shifts in technology necessitate new consideration of previously naturalized experiences. For instance: in the twenty-first century\, our most sophisticated tool—the hand—is increasingly reduced to a mere scrolling agent\, from finger tip of the index finger. This lecture examines the role of the human hand in the history of images and its relevance to contemporary art.  \nWorkshop: “Wisdom can only be passed on by the touching of hands”\nJarrett Earnest\nSaturday\, Sept. 28 | 4:00–6:00 p.m.\nThis workshop expands on ideas from “The Intelligence of Hands” in experiential form. The title is taken from a plaque beneath a bronze cast of Genesis P-Orridge’s piece “Touching of Hands\,” words spoken to he/r by Brion Gysin. As a group we will make life-casts of our hands\, which will form the conceptual basis for individual projects that can include photography\, drawing or performance\, and which will be shared at the end of the session. Inspiration will come through the discussion of artworks by Yvonne Rainer\, Carolee Schneemann\, Rebecca Horn and Avram Finkelstein\, among others.  \nConversation: Co-creating presence(s) and past(s)\nBrooke Holmes and Isabel Lewis\nSaturday\, Sept. 28 | 6 p.m.\nBrooke Holmes and Isabel Lewis explore the question: How do we forge lives together in relationship to pasts that are neither fully shared nor fully individual? The conversation begins with an exploration of the ancient concept of “sympathy\,” a Greek word that affirms the possibility of being affected together without erasing the boundaries of specific bodies\, with their specific histories and specific compositions.  It moves into an experiment in dialogue as a form of “temporary liveness\,” where conversation is a particular kind of space for sustaining sympathy\, all the while considering the many layered pasts of The School for Temporary Liveness as common ground. \nTalk: Carceral Temporalities\nJackie Wang\nSunday\, Sept. 29 | 1:30 p.m.\nContemporary politics of safety are strongly linked to forms of empathetic identification. Infrastructures of algorithmic policing define who is worthy of feeling safe and secure and enact or suspend one’s future. A language of comfort acknowledges those considered innocent and pure and justifies violence for others. But what about the lives being paused and no longer acknowledged? Prison abolitionist\, poet\, writer and performer Jackie Wang has been examining this question as part of her work on “carceral capitalism.” At her talk\, she will discuss how carceral temporalities are brutally imposed and emphasize the potential to escape and disrupt time. Drawing inspiration from the work of Moor Mother and the Black Quantum Futurism Collective\, she will explore modes of inhabiting time that undermine carceral temporalities. \nReading Room by Ulises\nHow might the performance of the body inform our understanding of the circulation of books? Ulises invites you to a room for reading and reflection open throughout the duration of The School for Temporary Liveness. Housed within the Study Hall\, the reading room will gather texts that inform and extend from The School for Temporary Liveness’s curriculum and participating practitioners.  \nUlises Pop-up Shop\nBrowse a selection of domestic and international titles—including independent art publications and artists’ books—on critical theory\, embodied practice\, Black radical thought and other concepts key to The School for Temporary Liveness. \nNight School\nSaturday\, Sept. 28 11 p.m.–Sunday\, Sept 29 10 a.m.\nSpend the night with us. What kinds of study and learning can happen only at night? \nWe will dance\, write\, listen to music\, watch films\, read out loud\, sleep and dream. \nThe School for Temporary Liveness Schedule: \nSchool Hours\nWednesday\, Sept. 25–Friday\, Sept. 27 | 4 p.m.–10 p.m.\nSaturday\, Sept. 28 | 4 p.m.–midnight\nSunday\, Sept. 29 | midnight–4 p.m.\nMonday\, Sept. 30–Wednesday\, Oct. 2 |  4 p.m.–10 p.m. \nWednesday\, Sept. 25\n6 p.m. Orientation | Study Hall\n7 p.m. #PUNK by nora chipaumire | Performance | The Library\n8 p.m. Existing Otherwise by Isabel Lewis | Performance | The Classroom\n9 p.m. Garden Party \nThursday\, Sept. 26\n4 p.m. Existing Otherwise by Isabel Lewis | Performance | The Classroom\n5:30 p.m. XOIR Session #1 with Colin Self | Workshop | Study Hall\n7:30 p.m. “The Intelligence of Hands” by Jarrett Earnest | Talk | Study Hall\n8:15 p.m. “Forcible Performance” by Simone White | Talk | Study Hall\n9 p.m. 100% POP by nora chipaumire | Performance | The Library \nFriday\, Sept. 27\n4 p.m.  XOIR Session #2 with Colin Self | Workshop | Study Hall\n6 p.m. *N!GGA by nora chipaumire | Performance | The Library\n7 p.m. “The Peripheral Gaze” by Tiona Nekkia McClodden | Talk | Study Hall\n8 p.m. Existing Otherwise by Isabel Lewis | Performance | The Classroom \nSaturday\, Sept. 28\n4 p.m. “Wisdom can only be passed on by the touching of hands” with Jarrett Earnest | Workshop | Study Hall\n4 p.m. Existing Otherwise by Isabel Lewis | Performance | The Classroom\n6 p.m. Co-creating presence(s) and past(s) with Isabel Lewis and Brooke Holmes  | Conversation | Study Hall\n6 p.m.  XOIR Session #3 with Colin Self | Workshop | Study Hall\n8 p.m. #PUNK 100%POP *N!GGA by nora chipaumire | Performance | The Library \nNIGHT SCHOOL\n11 p.m. XOIR Performance\n12:00 a.m. Abolitionist Poetics and the Practice of Dreaming (Workshop) | Jackie Wang\n1 a.m–10 a.m. FULL SCHEDULE coming soon \nSunday\, Sept. 29\n11:30 a.m. Isabel Lewis\, Brooke Holmes and guests | Conversation | Study Hall\n11:30 a.m. XOIR Session #4 with Colin Self | Workshop | Study Hall\n1:30 p.m. Carceral Temporalities by Jackie Wang | Talk | Study Hall\n2:30 p.m. Rizvana Bradley\, followed by conversation with nora chipaumire | Talk | Study Hall \nMonday\, Sept. 30\n5 p.m. Study Hall with Tiona Nekkia McClodden\n7 p.m. Existing Otherwise by Isabel Lewis | Performance | The Classroom\n9 p.m. #PUNK by nora chipaumire | Performance | The Library \nTuesday\, Oct. 1\n4 p.m. Existing Otherwise by Isabel Lewis | Performance | The Classroom\n6 p.m. Study Hall with Rizvana Bradley and Simone White\n8 p.m. #PUNK *N!GGA by nora chipaumire | Performance | The Library \nWednesday\, Oct. 2\n4 p.m. Study Hall with nora chipaumire\, Isabel Lewis and the School for Temporary Liveness\n8 p.m. Closing Party \nThe School of Dance at University of the Arts\, under the leadership of Donna Faye Burchfield\, is a community of 300 talented\, expressive students and an exceptional faculty of accomplished professionals with abilities and experiences that are diverse and far-reaching.

SUMMARY:Magnificent Emeralds: Fura’s Tears
DESCRIPTION:If art is an expression of beauty\, then the exquisite minerals at the Wilensky gallery are the highest form of aesthetic that nature has to offer. This fall\, set in their Chelsea gallery\, Wilensky will exhibit the greatest collection of emerald mineral specimens ever assembled. This breathtaking exhibition will embrace the undeniable transformative power that emeralds hold on the human imagination. “Magnificent Emeralds: Fura’s Tears” will open on Thursday\, September 26th and run through Monday\, December 30th\, 2019. \n“This exhibition is focused on natural emeralds\, as found and preserved in specimen and crystal form. By bringing together many of the world’s finest known examples of natural emerald specimens\, we can better understand all emerald specimens. Important emerald stones and jewelry can be found in every gem collection around the world. The same cannot be said about exceptional natural emerald specimens. We estimate that there are less than twenty-five in the world that would qualify. Of those twenty-five\, half of them are here on exhibit\,” says Stuart Wilensky\, President of Wilensky. \nThe significance of having half of the world’s finest known emerald specimens all in one place cannot be overstated. This has never happened in the history of mineral collecting. Wilensky invites the viewer to experience wonder and emotionally connect to the profoundly exquisite qualities of emerald specimens. \nConnecting to the mythological tale of Fura and Tena\, from the now extinct Muzos indigenous people of the Colombian Andes\, the exhibition narrates emeralds through their creation story\, where the tears of Fura’s infidelity begot the beloved green rocks. The seductive connection between nature\, beauty\, legend and art are explored through the mesmerizing green of the specimens. \n

DESCRIPTION:Baruch Performing Arts Center at Baruch College\nAnnounces 2019/2020 Season \nBaruch Performing Arts Center at Baruch College announces its 2019-20 Season of music\, theatre\, dance\, opera and more\, a season spanning genres and cultural influences\, rich in imagination and ideas. \nSeason Highlights:\nWorld Premieres by choreographers Abdul Latif and Amanda Selwyn\,\nA collaboration by jazz greats Vijay Iyer (pianist) and Wadada Leo Smith (trumpeter)\,\nThe World Premiere of Barbara Hammond’s play Terra Firma\, directed by Shana Cooper (TFANA) with Andrus Nichols\,\nThe World Premiere of Blood Moon\, an opera-theatre work by Garrett Fisher (composer) and Ellen McLaughlin (librettist) and Rachel Dickstein (director)\, co-presented with PROTOTYPE and the Japan Society. \n2019/2020 Season: \nTerra Firma *World Premiere*\nSeptember 27 – November 10\, 2019\nCo-presented with The COOP\nIn a not-so-distant Beckettian future\, years after The Big War\, a tiny kingdom wrestles with the problems of running a nation\, sparring with the concepts of what makes a citizen\, a country and a civilization. The play is inspired by real life events: In the 1960’s a retired army major in the United Kingdom claimed an abandoned aircraft platform in international waters off the coast of Essex as a sovereign nation\, planted his flag\, declared his wife Princess and their motto E Mare Libertas! ‘From the Sea\, Freedom!” Written by award winning New Dramatist resident Barbara Hammond\, and directed by Shana Cooper (Princess Grace Award)\, Terra Firma was originally commissioned by The Royal Court\, Britain’s premier company for cultivating new plays. The COOP is a new company founded by established New York artists Andrus Nichols (Bedlam’s Saint Joan\, Sense & Sensibility; “I’m beginning to think she can do anything.” – Ben Brantley\, The New York Times) and Kate Hamill (Playwright of the Year -2017 – The Wall Street Journal\, author of Sense & Sensibility\, Vanity Fair\, Little Women). \nDer Freischutz\nBy Carl Maria von Weber\nDirected by Louisa Proske\nOriginal musical arrangement by Daniel Schlosberg\nCo-presented with Heartbeat Opera\nDecember 4-15\, 2019\nHeartbeat Opera the “pioneering company” (The New York Times) behind ground-breaking productions of  Fidelio and Carmen\, brings its trademark vision to a classic opera\, making it a radical\, immersive re-imagining of the twisted fairy tale about a deal with the devil and seven magic bullets that cannot miss their target. The production features a stellar cast of singers and Heartbeat’s distinctive “ingenious rearrangement” (The Wall Street Journal) of Weber’s Romantic score arranged by Daniel Schlosberg. \nBlood Moon -World Premiere opera-theater collaboration\, presented by BPAC\, PROTOTYPE Festival and Japan Society\nJanuary 9 – 18\, 2020\nMusic: Garrett Fisher\nLibretto: Ellen McLaughlin\nDirector: Rachel Dickstein \nAmanda Selwyn\nHindsight: 20th Anniversary Program\nMarch 5 – 7\, 2019 at 7:30pm\nSupported by CUNY Dance Initiative\nFeaturing an interactive lobby installation and a composite evening of performances.  With a focus on reflection and memory\, the work will reference motifs and signature structures from two decades of richly layered repertory\, by a choreographer known for “Distinctive\, off-kilter elegance” – The New Yorker\, as well as featuring a World Premiere exploring the growth possible from looking back at history.  Hindsight will feature eight Amanda Selwyn Dance Theatre dancers\, and long-time collaborators Anna-Alisa Belous (Costume/Scenery)\, Dan Ozminkowski (Lighting)\, Joel Wilhelmi (Sound)\, Zachary Ludescher (Projection). \ndwb (driving while black)\nChamber Opera by Susan Kander (music) and Roberta Gumbel (soprano/libretto) with New Morse Code (Hannah Collins\, cello & Michael Compitello\, percussion)\nMarch 19-21\, 2020\n“Singers are storytellers\,” says soprano/librettist Roberta Gumbel (“silver voiced…” – The New York Times)\, “but rarely do we get the opportunity to help create the stories we are telling.” Collaborating with Susan Kander (“A composer of vivid imagination and skill.” – Fanfare) and the cutting-edge cello/percussion duo New Morse Code (“Clarity of artistic vision and near-perfect synchronicity..” – icareifyoulisten.com)\, this brief\, powerful music-drama documents the all-too-familiar story of an African-American parent whose “beautiful brown boy” approaches driving age as\, what should be a celebration of independence and maturity is fraught with the anxiety of “driving while black.” \nAbdul Latif\nForay\nMarch 26 -28\, 2020\nSupported by CUNY Dance Initiative\nForay is an evening-length concert of dance performance choreographed by Rockefeller Brothers Fund Fellow and Inaugural Lincoln Center Institute Artist-in-Residence Abdul Latif to an eclectic array of arranged instrumental music and self-composed rhythm percussion remixes. The program marks the premiere of D2D/T\, Mr. Latif’s artist collective and will showcase the virtuosic range of his technical vocabulary and work by extraordinary collaborators including dancers Indiana Woodward (NYCB)\, Calvin Royal III (ABT)\, Glenn Allen and Línda Celeste Sims (Alvin Ailey)\, composer/conductor Ron Wasserman\, fashion designer Peter Hidalgo.  It presents four original works: Eyespot (World Premiere)\, Feelin’ of a Flava (World Premiere)\, Sounds of Sense (2016) and NEither/NeIther (2017). \nVijay Iyer (piano) & Wadada Leo Smith (trumpet)\nMilt Hinton Jazz Perspectives Concert\nApril 17\, 2020 at 8pm\nNamed a MacArthur Fellow in 2013\, and called “Extravagantly gifted … brilliantly eclectic” – The New Yorker\, Vijay Iyer joins forces with an equally heralded musician and composer whom he calls his hero\, friend and teacher\, Doris Duke Artist Wadada Leo Smith “a magisterial instrumental voice…” – Downbeat.  Their collaborations have been hailed as “both cultivated and passionate” by The New Yorker. \nSiachen\nPlay by Aditya Rawal\nDirected by Gwynn MacDonald\nApril 30 – May 2\, 2020 at 7:30pm\nStranded at a post between India and Pakistan\, the Siachen Glacier\, three Indian soldiers wait for a chopper extraction to rescue them that shows no sign of arriving.  This play by 27-year-old Aditya Rawal from Mumbai (winner New York Innovative Theatre Award for The Queen) is set on the highest battleground on earth.  The Siachen glacier\, located in a disputed territory of Kashmir\, has been the subject of a 35-year military conflict.  While setting out to write an anti-war play criticizing the governments for their inability to broker a truce\, after spending two weeks at the base camp\, Rawal found the truth more complicated. The resulting play-in-development\, directed by Gwynn MacDonald (“Intelligent\, absorbing… a quiet but forceful call for art to alert itself to the impact of politics.” – The New York Times) explores the mistrust that lies at the root of human conflict. \nIn addition\, Baruch Performing Arts Center offers a series of classical and contemporary chamber music in the intimate and acoustically superb Rosalyn and Irwin Engelman Recital Hall\, called “a perfect hall for chamber music” by Anthony Tommasini\, The New York Times.

Printers were a mammoth force in the 19th-century Port of New York; they produced all manner of printed materials for the businesses flourishing on South Street\, including those in the maritime trades. The South Street Seaport Museum’s printing office and stationers\, Bowne & Co. was one of hundreds of shops that made up New York’s first neighborhood. The exhibition features original and reproduced artifacts from the South Street Seaport Museum’s collection\, including working printing presses. A survey of printed ephemera presents the tools and techniques involved in their production. The Museum’s working collection artifacts are activated daily\, as the professional printing staff at Bowne & Co. host live demonstrations and workshops. Entrance to this exhibit is included with Museum admission https://web.ovationtix.com/trs/pr/957100\n. \nNEW: Visit the Cargo Hold of Wavertree\nIncluded in the price of admission\, the South Street Seaport Museum now offers a new level of access to\nWavertree\, a 134-year-old ship built of riveted wrought iron and the iconic centerpiece of the “Street of Ships” at South Street. For the first time\, visitors can take a tour into the belly of the ship to view the breathtaking main cargo area as tours are conducted into the massive lower hold space to a viewing platform. Tickets are available at https://web.ovationtix.com/trs/pr/957100. \nOn-Going Exhibition:\nMillions: Migrants and Millionaires aboard the Great Liners\, 1900-1914\,\nfamiliarizes viewers with passenger life aboard ocean liners\, the defining differences between travel for wealthy Americans in First Class and future Americans immigrating to the United States in Third Class\, and the continuing importance that immigration plays in American history. Millions is one of the first exhibitions to examine\, side-by-side\, the dichotomy between First-Class and Third-Class passengers aboard ocean liners in the early 20th century. From 1900 to 1914\, nearly 13 million immigrants traveling in Third Class arrived in the United States. During this same period\, America’s wealthiest citizens\, totaling no more than a hundred thousand passengers each year\, traveled to Europe in First Class\, spending the equivalent of over $11.5 billion on luxury vacations. Even though First-Class and Third-Class sailed on the same ships\, their journeys were worlds apart. This exhibition features both original and reproduced artifacts from the South Street Seaport Museum’s permanent collection including ocean liner memorabilia and ephemera\, ceramics\, and luggage trunks from both immigrants and First-Class passengers. The exhibition highlights a few ship models of New York Harbor working vessels that played critical roles in immigration\, including a model of the Museum’s lightship Ambrose (LV-87). \nAbout Bowne & Co.\, New York’s oldest operating business under the same name. Bowne & Co. was established by Robert Bowne in 1775 and grew as a financial printer throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. In 1975\, Bowne & Co. Inc. partnered with the Seaport Museum to open a 19th-century-style print shop at 211 Water Street in the South Street Seaport Historic District. Today Bowne and Co. is comprised of a 19th century Printing Office which houses our new exhibition in a workspace where we continue the age-old tradition of job (or small batch) printing alongside our Stationers which serves as a recreation of 19th-century-style print shop selling gifts and fine goods. \nAbout the South Street Seaport Museum\nThe South Street Seaport Museum\, located in the heart of the historic seaport district in New York City\, preserves and interprets the history of New York as a great port city. Founded in 1967\, the Museum houses an extensive collection of works of art and artifacts\, a maritime reference library\, exhibition galleries and education spaces\, working nineteenth century print shops\, and an active fleet of historic vessels that all work to tell the story of “Where New York Begins.” www.southstreetseaportmuseum.org \n#SouthStreetSeaportMuseum #WhereNewYorkBegins\n@SouthStreetSeaportMuseum – Facebook\n@seaportmuseum – Instagram\n@seaportmuseum – Twitter \n

SUMMARY:The Olana Partnership Frederic Church Award Gala
DESCRIPTION:Frederic Edwin Church (1826-1900)\, a visionary and renaissance man\, is considered one of the greatest 19th century landscape artists in America. In 2000\, the centenary of Church’s death\, The Olana Partnership established the Frederic Church Award to honor individuals who\, through their vision\, commitment and grasp of creative trends\, make extraordinary contributions to American culture. \nHonorees:\nJAZZ JOHNSON MERTON served as Chair of the Board of Trustees of The Olana Partnership from 2004 to 2007. During her tenure\, Jazz championed the vision of a fully restored Olana to include Frederic Church’s historic farm complex. She oversaw the design and completion of key\, major projects\, including the restoration of Church’s Cosy Cottage and the creation of Olana’s Wagon House Education Center\, that opened the door to much greater opportunities. \nROSE HARVEY served as NYS Commissioner of Parks\, Recreation and Historic Preservation from 2011 to 2019 and has led the transformation of Olana. She led the planning process to make accessible and interpret all of Olana’s artist-designed landscape for the public\, which resulted in our nationally-recognized Strategic Landscape Design Plan. Thanks to her vision and leadership\, major capital projects are now underway across the site and Olana’s public-private partnership is renewed and strengthened to ensure the future of Frederic Church’s Olana. \n\n2018 Olana Gala at the Rainbow Room in NYC\n

SUMMARY:The Glass Menagerie
DESCRIPTION:Ruth Stage is thrilled to present a chilling new take on Tennessee Williams’ seminal play\, THE GLASS MENAGERIE\, directed by Austin Pendleton and Peter Bloch. \nAfter two critically acclaimed runs in 2018 of Wars of the Roses\, directors Austin Pendleton and Peter Bloch reunite with actor Matt de Rogatis to take on the American classic\, The Glass Menagerie. In this disquieting production\, the tormented Tom (de Rogatis) relives the story of his time in the Wingfields’ St. Louis apartment\, circa 1939\, as if he were remembering it through the lens of a spooky dream. \nThe cast\, led by Ginger Grace as the iconic Amanda Wingfield\, consists of Matt de Rogatis as\, her son\, Tom Wingfield\, Alexandra Rose as Laura Wingfield\, and Spencer Scott as The Gentleman Caller. \nSet designer Jessie Bonaventure\, who was the assistant set designer on the Broadway musical Hadestown\, which garnered four Tony Awards\, including Best Scenic Design\, collaborates with lighting designer Steven Wolf to create a version of this Tennessee Williams masterpiece that borders on horror. \nDimly lit and surrealistic\, the set itself will consist of props made of glass and the actors will live in a chilling\, dreamlike world. Taking inspiration from the The Exorcist soundtrack\, Sean Hagerty writes the score for this Wes Craven meets Tennessee Williams production. \nVisit www.theglassmenagerieplay.com for more information! \n\n \n

SUMMARY:CHEN DANCE CENTER Celebrates The First "Chinese American Heritage Week" and The 150th Anniv. Of The First US Transcontinental Railroad
DESCRIPTION:On Friday\, October 4th at 6pm\, Chen Dance Center will present a film screening of H.T. Chen’s Transparent Hinges (1996) whose title refers to the “hyphenated Americans” of dual heritage.  “This is a filmed presentation of the dance performance\,” stated Associate/Education Director Ms. Dong. “The full work has not been seen in over 20 years. We no longer have the enormous set pieces and sadly\, this film cannot capture the full experience of the live performance.”  Based on extensive research\, personal interviews\, and visits to the “Ellis Island of the West\,” it is a tribute to the perseverance of Chinese American laborers of the Transcontinental Railroad and the adversity faced by immigrants detained at Angel Island. A post-screening talk-back will feature cast members including Renouard Gee\, who appeared in both the stage and film project. “My father came to America in 1929 from Taishan\, Guangdong\,” said Mr. Gee. “Due to the Exclusion Act\, my father’s first steps onto US soil were at Angel Island as a “Paper Son.” He was detained for almost a year\, although the average stay was a few months. I learned about his difficult period at the immigration station by performing in Transparent Hinges. I visited Angel Island and began to realize the harsh conditions my father endured. I saw the lonely writings etched into the walls by detained Chinese immigrants. In 1961\, my dad became a naturalized U.S. citizen and regained his real name and identity.”  Ms. Dong will moderate the discussion on first-hand accounts of courage and resilience from descendants of the railroad workers and immigration station detainees. \n

Guggenheim Museum\n1071 Fifth Avenue\, New York \nLead funding for Works & Process is provided by The Christian Humann Foundation\, Rockefeller Brothers Fund\, and the Evelyn Sharp Foundation\, with public funds from the National Endowment for the Arts and New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council. \nThe Washington Ballet (TWB) was founded in 1944 as The Washington School of Ballet (TWSB) by legendary dance pioneer\, Mary Day. The school was so successful\, the Company was established and incorporated in 1976 with Ms. Day’s singular vision clearly illuminated: to create a stellar institution of teaching\, creating\, and enlightenment through dance. Now celebrating 75 years of providing exceptional dance training and education to thousands of students\, the school and the Company continue to grow under the leadership of Artistic Director Julie Kent\, who has been at the helm of TWB since July 2016. \nKent enjoyed a stellar 30-year career at American Ballet Theatre and remains the longest serving ballerina in the company’s 80-year history. She began her dance training with Hortensia Fonseca at the Academy of the Maryland Youth Ballet in Bethesda\, MD and attended summer sessions at American Ballet Theatre II and the School of American Ballet before joining American Ballet Theatre as an apprentice in 1985. In that same year\, Kent won first place in the regional finals of the National Society of Arts and Letters at the Kennedy Center. In 1986\, she was the only American to win a medal at the Prix de Lausanne International Ballet Competition\, and she became a member of American Ballet Theatre’s corps de ballet. Her extensive roles encompass the breadth of the ballet repertoire and as a muse to numerous choreographers who created works on her. Her devotion to serving the art form\, to promoting arts education and to using her experience to nurture\, train\, and develop the next generation of dancers are the tenets by which she will continue to elevate The Washington Ballet\, the Company\, School\, and community engagement programs and initiatives. \nThe Washington Ballet and Mary Day were pioneers of diversity in dance\, nurturing dancers of varied backgrounds including Virginia Johnson\, Artistic Director of Dance Theatre of Harlem. This tradition continues to lead the dialogue and actions of the larger dance community incorporating dancers from diverse backgrounds into their companies. TWB has served as an exemplary company in welcoming dancers of color and their families through an integrated faculty and company. Former TWB Artistic \nDirector Septime Webre initiated TWB@THEARC\, developing community engagement programs at the Townhall Education Arts Recreation Campus (THEARC) in southeast Washington\, DC. The programs include The Washington School of Ballet’s Southeast Campus\, the DanceDC program and EXCEL! Merit Scholarships. These programs have served over 70\,000 children and thousands of adults since their inception in 1999. \nThe company continues to build on a combination of classic ballet repertoire as well as exciting new works which represent today’s choreographic voices and move dance into the 21st Century. The Washington Ballet is deeply committed to the development of the dancer and the art form and continues to grow the next generation of dancers by providing exceptional training through the school and professional training programs at The Washington School of Ballet. \nWorks & Process at the Guggenheim\nDescribed by The New York Times as “an exceptional opportunity to understand something of the creative process\,” for 35 years\, New Yorkers have been able to see\, hear\, and meet the most acclaimed artists in the world\, in an intimate setting unlike any other. Works & Process\, the performing arts series at the Guggenheim\, has championed new works and offered audiences unprecedented access to generations of leading creators and performers. Most performances take place in the Guggenheim’s intimate Frank Lloyd Wright-designed 273-seat Peter B. Lewis Theater. In 2017\, Works & Process established a new residency and commissioning program\, inviting artists to create new works\, made in and for the iconic Guggenheim rotunda. worksandprocess.org. \n

SUMMARY:The Pink Hulk: One Woman’s Journey to Find the Superhero Within

Now battling breast cancer after fighting off lymphoma\, Valerie does something most people facing cancer in their life probably wouldn’t think of doing. With a fear that she might lose “the girls\,” she takes them out for one last hurrah. And does Valerie succeed? Is there a “happy ending”? Come see the show to find out! This adventurous solo show follows Valerie’s journey to seek her own “hulk-like” strength to find her superhero within to become a two-time cancer survivor. An empowering and true story of inspiration that’s been touring the globe\, with plenty of humor—guaranteed! \nValerie “hulked out” on cancer. Her solo play is a celebration of being comfortable in one’s own skin\, of embracing and accepting one’s own body—no matter the shape or size. And her performances coincide with Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October. Her comical take is sure to have audience members laughing out loud\, to capture their emotions\, and to inspire them to find their own inner superheroes to help them conquer any adversity in their own lives. The Pink Hulk is a true testament to the power we have within to fight back any adversity in life—to never give up and always have hope!\n“My show is not just about fighting cancer; it has a universal message of hope and empowerment\,” Valerie said. And after all\, a cancer diagnosis means only one thing: Time to get laid! Valerie has been performing worldwide in 26 different theater venues since its debut in 2016\, garnering rave reviews and winning several awards including The WOW award in Sweden’s Gothenburg Fringe Festival. \nThe Pink Hulk is co-presented by the Theatre at the 14th Street Y. Tech Director: Emily Anderson; Public Relations: Paul Siebold/Off Off PR. \nTickets are $25. Students/Seniors/Special interest groups: $15.

SUMMARY:CONCERTS IN THE CATACOMBS
DESCRIPTION:Death of Classical and The Green-Wood Cemetery announce the second season of The Angel’s Share\, the acclaimed concert series featuring opera and chamber music in the Cemetery’s Catacombs. \nEach evening begins with a reception at sunset featuring a whiskey tasting and views of the Manhattan skyline and New York Harbor. At dusk\, guests will then wander along winding paths to Catacombs for the performance. \nPergolesi: Stabat Mater\nOctober 8\, 9 & 10\, 2019; 6:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.\nThe Stabat Mater is a medieval poem that describes the suffering of Jesus’s mother Mary as she stands at the foot of the cross. Pergolesi’s setting of the text is among the most haunting and gut-wrenching compositions ever put to paper. At one point\, the piece asks us if it’s possible to watch someone else suffer so deeply\, and not somehow share in their sorrow. It stands as one of the purest musical depictions of empathy\, and a powerful reminder that – no matter what pain we may feel in the moment – we’re never truly alone in our sadness. Performed by the String Orchestra of Brooklyn\, conducted by Eli Spindel\, the program will also feature Barber’s wrenching Adagio for Strings\, and Arvo Pärt’s slow-burning Fratres\, and if that all wasn’t enough – the entire performance will feature wall-to-ceiling film projections up and down the Catacombs. \nPLEASE NOTE: Ticketholders must be 21 years or older. Reservations are recommended. If the event is not sold out\, walk-ups will be accommodated on a first-come\, first-served basis. \n\n \n

SUMMARY:CUNY Dance Initiative and Kinesis Project dance theatre present Breathing with Strangers
DESCRIPTION:CUNY Dance Initiative and\nKinesis Project dance theatre\npresent\nBreathing with Strangers\na site-specific\, multidisciplinary performance\nat Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Garden\nOctober 12\, 2019 \nThe CUNY Dance Initiative and Kinesis Project dance theatre will present the site-specific dance performance Breathing with Strangers on Saturday\, October 12\, 2019 at 2pm and 4pm\, at Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Garden\, 1000 Richmond Terrace\, Staten Island\, NY 10301. Tickets are $10 and can be purchased at https://snug-harbor.org/pass/. \nMelissa Riker/Kinesis Project dance theatre’s newest large-scale\, outdoor performance\, Breathing with Strangers\, is a ragged\, sweeping and surprising love-song to New York City. Dancers appear and disappear as the choreography twists around and within the levels\, buildings\, and hillsides of Snug Harbor’s Shinbone Alley. This project invites the audience to witness\, interact\, and follow the performance — and consider how generous moments between strangers can occur. \nKinesis Project dance theatre is led by New York City-based choreographer Melissa Riker\, who emerged as a strong performance and creative voice in the dance and circus worlds during the 1990’s. Through Kinesis Project\, Riker is democratizing dance by placing large-scale dance theatre in public spaces. Kinesis Project often works with urban renewal organizations such as HighLine Network members\, Friends of Waterfront Seattle\, or institutions like the South Street Seaport or Queens Botanical Garden. \nKinesis Project’s performance is the culmination of a residency at Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Garden in partnership with the CUNY Dance Initiative and the College of Staten Island. \n“This season’s PASS performances at Snug Harbor explore the depths of time\, memory\, and ritual\, opening up exciting spatial and sonic possibilities through movement and performance. Kinesis Project dance theatre\, led by CUNY Dance Initiative artist-in-residence Melissa Riker\, activates the richness of our historic campus by staging a site-specific performance in Shinbone Alley\,” said Melissa West\, Vice President of Curation\, Visual & Performing Arts at Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Garden. \nBreathing with Strangers is made possible in part with funding from the Upper Manhattan Empowerment Zone Development Corporation and administered by LMCC. \nFor more information\, visit https://www.kinesisproject.com. \nABOUT THE COMPANY’S LAST SHOW:\n“Large scale and transformative\, Kinesis Project took on the space between an urban backdrop and the natural world beyond in Traces of Us. From their scattered shouts over the noise of the Alaskan Way Viaduct to their tight gathering at the waterfront edge\, gesturing at the sunset\, the dancers delighted and awed throughout.” – Seattle Dances \nGia Kourlas\, The New York Times wrote about the company’s recent piece:\n“Melissa Riker explores ideas about how vulnerability exists both in people and in structures; it comes to life within an immersive environment of movement and whispers.” \nMelissa Riker is Artistic Director and Choreographer of Kinesis Project dance theatre. She is a New York City dancer and choreographer who emerged as a strong performance and creative voice as the NYC dance and circus worlds combined during the 90s. Riker’s dances and aesthetic layer her training as a classical dancer\, martial artist\, theatre choreographer and aerial performer. She creates dances on site – and in context. Riker invents large-scale outdoor performances and spontaneous moments of dance for individuals and corporate clients. Audiences and critics have called Riker’s work “a Marx Brothers’ routine with soul\,” “A movable feast.” And from The New York Times\, her choreography is: “comically acrobatic\, gracefully classical\, visually arresting.” \nKinesis Project is a dance organization that produces dance concerts\, facilitates educational programs and creates site-specific performances with diverse communities. A company at the forefront of the international discussion of placemaking\, art engagement and the cultural imperative of art in public space\, Kinesis Project dance theatre invents large scale\, space-changing\, breath-taking experiences. \nSince 2005\, Kinesis Project’s work has been experienced in San Francisco\, San Diego\, Seattle\, Boston\, Philadelphia\, Vermont\, Florida and in New York City at such venerable venues as Danspace Project\, Judson Church\, Joyce Soho\, The Minskoff Theatre\, The Cunningham Studio\, West End Theatre and Dixon Place.  In 2019\, the company’s work will be experienced in Seattle\, Brooklyn\, NY\, Riverside Park\, supported by New York City Parks\, and in Snug Harbor Cultural Center on Staten Island. The company dances outside in sculpture gardens\, universities\, and annually since 2006 in Battery Park’s Bosque Gardens and The Cloisters Lawn as well as hosting more than 30 surprise performances all over New York City and the tri-state area as an element of the company’s earned income and outreach programming with volunteer populated flashmobs. Residencies include: Earthdance 2006\, Omi International Arts Center 2008\, Kaatsbaan International Dance Center 2011\, TheaterLab 2014\, Adelphi University 2014. Ms. Riker is a 2016\, 2017 and 2019 CUNY Dance Initiative Residency Fellow\, 2015 LMCC Community Arts Fund grantee\, 2019 Upper Manhattan Empowerment Zone Grantee. She has been commissioned by The Brooklyn Botanic Garden for a surprise large-scale work and performances of her work Secrets and Seawalls at Omi International Arts Center\, Long House Reserve\, Gateway National Park in partnership with Rockaways Artist Alliance. Ms. Riker has received commissions from Carson Fox and the Ephemeral Festival in 2013\, 2014\, 2015 and 2016 for large-scale outdoor events\, NYU in 1998\, for an outdoor work long before “flash mob” was coined\, 2006 and 2008 grants from the Puffin Foundation for her work Community Movements\, a dance work with community volunteers\, Fellowships from the Dodge Foundation\, Space Grant Residencies from 92nd St Y\, The New 42nd St Studio\, Gibney Dance Center\, and The Joyce Theatre Foundation\, and grants from The Bowick Family Trust and John C. Robinson to support the continued work of Kinesis Project dance theatre. \nSnug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Garden is the result of more than four decades of restoration and development to convert a 19th century charitable rest home for sailors to a regional arts center\, botanical gardens\, and public park. It is a place where history\, architecture\, gardens\, agriculture\, visual and performing arts\, and education come together to provide a dynamic experience for all ages. Snug Harbor consists of 28 buildings\, fourteen distinctive botanical gardens\, a two acre urban farm\, wetlands and park land on a unique\, free\, open campus. Six of Snug Harbor’s original structures were the first designated landmarks for New York City’s Landmarks Preservation Commission in 1965\, including the majestic Main Hall (built in 1833) and Music Hall (built in 1892)\, one of the oldest concert halls in New York City. Fourteen distinctive gardens spread across the campus and include the celebrated New York Chinese Scholar’s Garden and the Richmond County Savings Foundation Tuscan Garden.

This year will mark the 60th anniversary of the Japanese performance art form butoh. \nCurated by New York Butoh Institute’s founder Vangeline\, the Festival will consist of an exciting program of Butoh workshops and masterclasses\, as well as seven nights of groundbreaking performances presented at Theater for the New City. The festival will conclude on Sunday\, October 27 with a lecture and short film celebrating the founder of butoh\, Tatsumi Hijikata\, and the 60 years of this historical and revolutionary art form as it continues to evolve into the 21st century. \nThe bold butoh performances being presented during the festival will feature 14 female dancers from Japan\, Colombia\, Norway\, Italy\, Germany\, France\, and the U.S. One of the pieces\, Hijikata\, Mon Amour\, will be performed by Vangeline as an homage to butoh founder Tatsumi Hijikata. A highlight of the piece will be the costume Vangeline will wear: an exact replica of the bold red costume Tatsumi Hijikata wore in his legendary butoh performance of Tatsumi Hijikata and The Japanese-Revolt of the Flesh in 1968. \nThanks to a loan from the Tatsumi Hijikata Archives and a Janet Arnold Award from the Society of Antiquaries of London\, the Festival is able to showcase the replica of this iconic costume worn by Tatsumi Hijikata in Revolt of the Flesh. Hijikata’s costume remains a totem for butoh-it holds secrets of the avant-garde art form. \nMuch like butoh itself\, it was born at the confluence of East and West. This costume chronicles the evolution of postmodern art in Japan. The Festival will close with a short film of Tatsumi Hijikata in his 1968 solo\, and a lecture with costume expert Todd Thomas who recreated the costume\, and who will discuss his process\, shedding light on how the original costume was designed and constructed. Prior to and during the presentation\, the replica will be on display for audience members to see. \nThe New York Butoh Festival 19 will take place at Theater for the New City\, 155 First Avenue\, NYC.

For its tenth anniversary season\, the multidisciplinary festival will feature events presented in eight venues across the city\, including U.S. and New York premieres and the return of festival favorites. \n“The resonance of the White Light Festival has only deepened during its first decade\, as we have moved into far more challenging times here and around the world\,” said Jane Moss\, Ehrenkranz Artistic Director of Lincoln Center. “The Festival’s central theme\, namely the singular capacity of artistic expression to illuminate what is inside ourselves and connect us to others\, is more relevant than ever. This 10th anniversary edition spanning disparate countries\, cultures\, disciplines\, and genres emphasizes that the elevation of the spirit the arts inspires uniquely unites us and expands who we are.” \n

SUMMARY:Crossings -- a culinary and musical mosaic benefiting Copland House
DESCRIPTION:Crossings — Copland House’s much-anticipated culinary and musical gala this year — is a surprising\, multi-sensory sonic and epicurean experience … an enthralling narrative in taste\, tone\, and texture about migration across the generations to Manhattan’s fabled Lower East Side and its environs. \nThe wildly-innovative young chef Will Horowitz\, “a fearless explorer” (The New York Times)\, and Music from Copland House\, a “bold and adventurous ensemble” (The New Yorker)\, serve as guides on an imaginative gastronomic and audio tour rooted in the music\, language\, food\, customs\, and dreams of millions of emigres from every corner of the globe – hopeful exiles who\, like Aaron Copland’s parents\, were irresistibly drawn to America by its freedoms\, opportunities\, and ideals. \n“Every culture\,” Horowitz has said\, “has this beautiful way of taking its techniques to a foreign land\, then building on what they’ve just discovered to make something that’s both old and novel.” And through the music of Flannery Cunningham\, Angel Lam\, Gabriela Lena Frank\, Derek Bermel\, David Schiff and others\, echoes of bygone peoples resound again. The magical\, mystical setting for this one-night-only collaboration is the historic Angel Orensanz Center – dating from 1849\, the oldest surviving synagogue building in New York City\, fourth-oldest in the U.S.\, and a Lower East Side landmark\, still animated by cultures from around the world. Please join us as Chef Horowitz and Copland House bring together the aspirational souls of the past and the vibrant spirits of today. \nEvent co-chairs: Dr. Ezriel Kornel & Lisa Schultz \n

SUMMARY:Awards Gala: University of Pennsylvania Weitzman School
DESCRIPTION:The University of Pennsylvania Stuart Weitzman School of Design to Honor KPF Cofounder A. Eugene Kohn and RPA’s Fourth Regional Plan at October 2019 Gala \nThe University of Pennsylvania Stuart Weitzman School of Design has selected KPF cofounder A. Eugene Kohn as the 2019 recipient of the Kanter Tritsch Medal for Excellence in Architecture and Environmental Design\, and the Regional Plan Association (RPA) Fourth Regional Plan as the inaugural recipient of the Witte-Sakamoto Family Medal in City and Regional Planning. The honorees\, and recipients of two accompanying scholarships for exceptional students\, will be recognized at the Stuart Weitzman School of Design Awards gala on Monday\, October 21\, 2019\, at the IAC Building in New York City. \n“This is an exciting and challenging time for the allied disciplines in architecture\, planning\, preservation\, landscape architecture and fine arts\,” said Fritz Steiner\, Dean and Paley Professor of the Stuart Weitzman School of Design. “With these honors\, we celebrate the pursuit of beauty and efficiency in today’s cross-disciplinary settings.” \nThe Kanter Tritsch Medal for Excellence in Architecture and Environmental Design was established in 2017 through a $1.25 million gift from Penn alumna Lori Kanter Tritsch (MArch’85)\, a member of the Board of Overseers at the Stuart Weitzman School of Design\, and her partner and fellow Penn alumnus William P. Lauder\, who holds a bachelor of science in economics from the Wharton School and is a Penn Trustee\, to honor an under-recognized architect who has changed the course of design history\, with a particular focus on the areas of energy conservation\, environmental quality\, and/or diversity. \n“Over four decades\, Gene Kohn has led one of the most versatile and productive firms of our time\, committed throughout to environmental sustainability and boldly humanistic design\,” said Winka Dubbeldam\, Miller Professor and Chair in the Department of Architecture. “Just as important\, Gene inspires a new generation of leaders in architecture.” \nThe Witte-Sakamoto Family Medal in City and Regional Planning was established by William Witte (C’73\, MCP’75)\, an alumnus of the Weitzman School and member of the Board of Overseers\, and his wife\, Keiko Sakamoto\, Esq. to recognize a firm\, team\, or professional for an exemplary plan that advances plan making in at least four of the following areas: social equity\, environmental quality\, design\, public health\, mobility\, housing affordability\, and economic development. \n“The scope of the Fourth Regional Plan is just enormous\, and the potential impact great\, given the range of participants and legacy of previous plans\,” said Lisa Servon\, Kevin and Erica Penn Presidential Professor and Chair of the Department of City and Regional Planning at the Weitzman School. “The proposals resulting from RPA’s considerable efforts are as admirable as the Plan’s four core values of equity\, health\, prosperity and sustainability.” \nThe accompanying student prizes\, given annually to continuing students\, recognize their exceptional work and support the costs of each student’s final year of study in their respective programs. \nThe Kanter Tritsch Medal in Energy and Architectural Innovation is accompanied by a Prize for a Master of Architecture candidate entering the final year of study who demonstrates transformational thinking on the built environment and innovation in his or her approach to one or more challenges of energy\, ecology\, and social equity. The recipient of the second annual Prize\, which carries a $50\,000 scholarship\, is Patrick William Danahy\, recognized for work in computation and fabrication within the realm of sympathy and aesthetics. Danahy will apply his studies in the robotics lab under Assistant Professor of Architecture Robert Stuart-Smith and as a graduate assistant to his research abroad in machine learning and aesthetics\, applied in his travel to survey French and Belgian Art Nouveau architecture. \nSaid Danahy of his 2019 Kanter Tritsch Prize\, “Receiving the Prize has allowed me to continue this research in the spirit of dedication and commitment of the faculty here at the Penn and the Robotics Lab. I am grateful to have the opportunity to pursue my passion\, continuing research within the field of architecture with our supportive professors.” \nThe Witte-Sakamoto Family Medal in City and Regional Planning is also accompanied by a Prize recognizing an outstanding planning student entering his or her final year in the Master of City and Regional Planning program for innovation and impact in planning. The Prize carries a $50\,000 scholarship awarded through a competitive\, blind review process by a jury of faculty members and invited practitioners. The recipient of the 2019 Prize is Amie Patel\, who is recognized for her studies in Urban Design and how designs can work with the existing community fabric. Patel’s desire to work with local citizens and design with the community in mind reflects her studies and professional work in landscape architecture in Southern California before coming to the Weitzman School to study City and Regional Planning. \nSaid Patel of her 2019 Witte-Sakamoto Family Prize in City and Regional Planning\, “I have always been interested in who would be using the designed spaces we create as planners\, urban designers and landscape architects\, and how they would affect the larger community. This Prize means a great deal to me as it allows me to continue to focus my work around how people and communities interact with the built environment.” \nThe Medals and Prizes will be presented at the Stuart Weitzman School of Design Awards gala at 6:00 pm Monday\, October 21\, 2019\, at the IAC Building\, 527 West 18th Street\, in New York City. \nThe Kanter Tritsch Prize and Witte-Sakamoto Family Prize build on several initiatives at the Weitzman School to advance design excellence\, building performance and resilience. To support the next generation of planners\, architects\, landscape architects\, preservationists\, or artists to be educated at the School\, contact Jeffrey Snyder\, assistant dean for development and alumni relations\, at jsnyder2@design.upenn.edu or 215.898.8738. \nImages available.\nPress contact: Chris Sullivan\, 914.462.2096 \n

SUMMARY:Lincoln Center's 2019 White Light Festival presents EN MASSE
DESCRIPTION:Australia’s Circa ensemble embodies electrifying explosions of physicality and power in this work that blurs the boundaries of dance\, theater\, music\, and circus arts. Under the visionary direction of Yaron Lifschitz\, the troupe melds circus acrobatics with contemporary dance in the tender and savage En Masse\, featuring ten acrobats and three musicians performing to music by Swedish composer Klara Lewis interspersed with selections from Schubert’s haunting Winterreise and Schwanengesang. A two-piano arrangement of Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring yields the anarchic energy of acrobats caught in a life-and-death struggle. Circa appeared in the U.S. premiere of How Like an Angel in the 2014 White Light Festival. \nThere will be a post-performance discussion with Libby McDonnell and Elizabeth Streb on Thursday\, October 24. \nEn Masse (U.S. premiere)\nWednesday\, October 23\, 2019 at 7:30 pm\nThursday\, October 24\, 2019 at 7:30 pm\nFriday\, October 25\, 2019 at 7:30 pm\nGerald W.

For its tenth anniversary season\, the multidisciplinary festival will feature events presented in eight venues across the city\, including U.S. and New York premieres and the return of festival favorites. \n“The resonance of the White Light Festival has only deepened during its first decade\, as we have moved into far more challenging times here and around the world\,” said Jane Moss\, Ehrenkranz Artistic Director of Lincoln Center. “The Festival’s central theme\, namely the singular capacity of artistic expression to illuminate what is inside ourselves and connect us to others\, is more relevant than ever. This 10th anniversary edition spanning disparate countries\, cultures\, disciplines\, and genres emphasizes that the elevation of the spirit the arts inspires uniquely unites us and expands who we are.” \n

This program shares a wide range of work from the Netherlands for young audiences at festivals\, conferences\, and other platforms\, all representing a respect for young people and dedication to youth culture as an autonomous art form. \nA joint effort of Dutch Performing Arts\, the Consulate General of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in New York\, Eye International\, Netherlands Film Fund\, Cinekid\, Dutch Foundation for Literature\, and DutchCulture\, Never Group Up!aims to stimulate the dissemination and visibility of Dutch youth arts as well as cultural exchange and partnerships with renowned U.S.-based presenters and organizations. \nDutch youth arts are known for their artistry and high production values while often tackling challenging subjects\, ranging from the commercial to the chaotic\, the playful to provocative and poetic\, the silly to the serious\, and everything in between. Filmmakers\, writers\, and performers take young people and their personal experiences seriously. Unafraid to take artistic risks\, publicly-funded makers in particular like to go off the beaten path of typical children’s stories and address topical issues head-on. At the same time\, Dutch youth arts are characterized by their sense of humor\, playfulness\, and light take on things\, and are equally enjoyed by young audiences and grown-ups. \nThroughout 2019\, Never Grow Up! presents Dutch film\, literature\, (music) theatre\, and dance that caters to young audiences and their families at events and venues such as Brooklyn Academy of Music\, the Kennedy Center\, New York International Children’s Film Festival\, and Brooklyn Book Festival. Presenters and agencies are invited to attend screenings\, readings\, and performances\, meet directors\, writers and performers\, and engage with representatives of Dutch expert organizations to discuss opportunities for collaboration and exchange. \nVisit DutchCultureUSA.com/NeverGrowUp for more information and upcoming activities. \nAbout Education At the Kennedy Center\nThe John F.
