    LYONS WIER GALLERY 542 West 24th Street New York NY 10011 Valeri Larko “Sign of the Times” March 26 – April 25, 2020 Lyons Wier Gallery 542 West 24th Street New York, NY 10011 Gallery Hours: Tues – Sat, 11am- 6pm [New York City] “Sign of the Times” takes its name from Valeri Larko’s intimate paintings of billboards in and around the Bronx, New York. The title also refers to the strange era of planetary and political upheaval in which we currently live. Holiday Motel, Bronx, Oil on linen, 36 x 30 in / 91 x 76 cm Larko’s newest paintings continue her exploration of the ordinary, often overlooked, environs of the outer boroughs of NYC, all of which she paints on location. Her work encourages the viewer to slow down and rediscover the world around them. In “Sign of the Times,” she focuses more sharply on signage and the odd juxtapositions that occur in the urban landscape. The artist’s fascination with billboards began during the financial crisis of 2008-2009 when she noticed the increasing appearance of blank billboards popping up in the Bronx and beyond. Since then, some of those billboards have remained blank while others have hawked both religious and anti-science messages as well as a plethora of advertisements for personal injury lawyers. Larko juxtaposes these often dire warnings with the recent proliferation of more inspirational signage. She also celebrates the emotional respite that blank billboards offer the viewer amongst the incessant din of 21st century messaging. Other paintings, like Hi-Five, are a remnant of a bygone America that’s quickly disappearing.

    Rhetorics of Belonging Postcolonialism across the Disciplines 14 Bernard, Rhetorics of Belonging.indd 1 09/09/2013 11:17:03 Postcolonialism across the Disciplines Series Editors Graham Huggan, University of Leeds Andrew Thompson, University of Exeter Postcolonialism across the Disciplines showcases alternative directions for postcolonial studies. It is in part an attempt to counteract the dominance in colonial and postcolonial studies of one particular discipline – English literary/ cultural studies – and to make the case for a combination of disciplinary knowledges as the basis for contemporary postcolonial critique. Edited by leading scholars, the series aims to be a seminal contribution to the field, spanning the traditional range of disciplines represented in postcolonial studies but also those less acknowledged. It will also embrace new critical paradigms and examine the relationship between the transnational/cultural, the global and the postcolonial.

The myth of the unbeatable fighter is just that, a myth. In what will go down as the single most memorable UFC fight in history, Ronda Rousey was not only defeated, but systematically destroyed by a fighter and a coaching staff that had spent years preparing for that night. On 2/28, Holly Holm and Ronda Rousey were the two co-headliners on a show at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. The idea was that Holm, a former world boxing champion, would impressively knock out Raquel Pennington, a .500 level fighter who was known for exchanging blows and not taking her down. Rousey was there to face Cat Zingano, a fight that was supposed to be the hardest one of her career. Holm looked unimpressive, barely squeaking by in a split decision. Rousey beat Zingano with an armbar in 14 seconds.

Grazie in particolare al mio relatore, Dario Miccoli, che, oltre ad essere un amico, mi ha accompagnata per la seconda metà di questo tortuoso percorso con infinita pazienza e senso dell’umorismo. Grazie per essere sempre stato presente e per aver condiviso suggerimenti, contatti, incoraggiamenti e qualche battuta sull’Israele contemporaneo. Anche se non più mia relatrice sulla carta, la mia più profonda gratitudine va a colei che, nel mio percorso accademico, dall’inizio, è stata presenza costante e instancabile, e che ha contribuito a rendermi, non solo dal punto di vista intellettuale ma anche professionale, la persona che sono ora, con infinite pazienza, curiosità, fiducia e incoraggiamenti.
