  • National Endowment for the Arts Annual Report 1993
    L T 1 TO THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES: It is my special pleasure to transmit herewith the Annual Report of the National Endowment for the Arts for the fiscal year 1993. The National Endowment for the Arts has awarded over 100,000 grants since 1965 for arts projects that touch every community in the Nation. Through its grants to individual artists, the agency has helped to launch and sustain the voice and grace of a generation--such as the brilliance of Rita Dove, now the U.S. Poet Laureate, or the daring of dancer Arthur Mitchell. Through its grants to art organizations, it has helped invigorate community arts centers and museums, preserve our folk heritage, and advance the perform­ ing, literary, and visual arts. Since its inception, the Arts Endowment has believed that all children should have an education in the arts. Over the past few years, the agency has worked hard to include the arts in our national education reform movement. Today, the arts are helping to lead the way in renewing American schools. I have seen first-hand the success story of this small agency. In my home State of Arkansas, the National Endowment for the Arts worked in partnership with the State arts agency and the private sector to bring artists into our schools, to help cities revive downtown centers, and to support opera and jazz, literature and music. All across the United States, the Endowment invests in our cultural institutions and artists. People in communities small and large in every State have greater opportunities to participate and enjoy the arts.

  • Femininity.Pdf
    FEMININITY IN coNTEMPORARY ASIAN ART IF TH E SHOE FITS AND VERNAL VISIONS exhibited at LehmanCollege Art Gallery City Collegeof New York Fisher Art Building, Bard College,Annandale New York 2002-2003 curated by PatriciaEichenbaum Karetzky Seventeen Asian women have contributed to this exhibition of contemporary art. The group is quite varied, comprising Chinese, Japanese,Korean and Indian ancestry, some live in the United States; others are abroad. Some of the artists are middle aged; others are quite young. The artists' work utilizes a number of media and mate- rials: painting, drawing. sculpture, photography, ceramics, textile, video and installation art. Central to the exhibition are the issues of both Western feminine identity and Asian notions of femininity. Several of these women chose to illustrate the "sexy ideal" of native movie stars of Shanghai, Hong Kong or Mumbai (Bollywood); others portray women as young contemporaries in modern day (MTV) attire. Some use multi-ethnic representations of women to illustrate their belief in the universality of their situation. Many artists use the foot or shoe as a primary focus of personal iden- tity in their art. It is curious that the sexual fixation with alluring footwear that temporarily empowers women and results in the defor- mation of the foot is present in both the East (the bound foot) and the West (the torturous high heel). Enhancedsexual allure leads to being crippled. Ironically drinking champagne/ wine from a high-heeled shoe (Marilyn Monroe) or a tiny brocade slipper for a "lotus foot" (as in the novel Ching Pei Ming) is deemed highly erotic.

  • 2018 ANNUAL REPORT a Letter of Introduction WELCOME!!!
    Photo: Into the Forest by Alice Guareschi Photo: Into the Forest by ALLIED PRODUCTIONS, INC 2018 ANNUAL REPORT A letter of introduction WELCOME!!! Allied Productions,Inc.from was foundedJack in 1981 to facilitate& & support Peter people engaged in common artis- tic endeavors and pursuits. We never imagined it would survive and thrive this long! You may know Allied Productions, Inc. through our primary project Le Petit Versailles (LPV), the Greenthumb garden that fosters the cultural legacy of our home base on the Lower East Side of New York City. Be a gar- dener! Fill out the LPV membership Application Form. For almost 25 years, Le Petit Versailles had been powered by a single outlet from the Allied Home Of- fice three stories above. In 2014, a sudden fire at the home office threatened the home of our direc- tors, and the whole events season. The fire forced us to address some infrastructure updates to LPV, located in the lot adjacent to Allied’s office. On July 2018, after 4 years of research, fundraising, and acquiring permits from various agencies, we successfully connected to the CON ED grid, and are now powered independently! Special thanks for everyone who made the new electrical system possible! Thanks to contributors to our Garden Power Indiegogo campaign, service donations from New Moon Construction, A&S Electric, Inc., the office of NYC City Council Woman Carlina Rivera, and the NYC Dept of Parks, and the Greenthumb program. But all this infrastructural progress comes at a cost. Installing the hardware cost about $9K, the yearly insurance we must now purchase each year costs $3K, and the monthly electric bill will likely run about $500 per season.

  • AAA CETA Presentation Final
    https://youtu.be/bn1VqaTtJTM 1 Nearly everyone has heard of the WPA and its employment of artists in the 1930s, but few have heard about CETA, the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act, of the 1970s. At least 10,000 artists — visual artists, actors, musicians, dancers and poets — were employed under this federal program. In addition, CETA provided funds for security guards, administrative positions and other support staff that benefited cultural institutions, performing venues and arts groups. 2 CETA was signed into law on December 23, 1973 by Richard Nixon. It was conceived of as a broad jobs program and it consolidated a number of already existing government programs. It was a bipartisan endeavor. Republicans were able to support the legislation because of its structure: block grants to states that redistributed the funds to regions and municipalities. Use of the funds was then decided primarily on the local level. CETA was designed to be a temporary response to a deep recession and high unemployment. Initially conceived as a training program for unskilled workers, it was amended to include new sections, called “titles,” for trained workers in professions suffering from chronic un-and-under-employment. Photo courtesy of National Archives 3 CETA was not designed with the employment of artists in mind. Unlike the WPA, there were no dedicated arts, theatre or music projects included in the legislation. But this man, John Kreidler, devised a way in which CETA funds could be used to employ artists. RIght after college, he spent five years working in various government positions in Washington, DC, and helped draft the original CETA legislation.

Doctoral Dissertations. 826. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/dissertations/826 Transnationalism, Mobility and Identity: the Making of Place in Flushing, New York City Shaolu Yu, Ph.D. 2015 ABSTRACT Drawing upon studies on mobility, transnationalism, migration and ethnic community, this dissertation examines the paradox of transnational mobilities at the cross-national scale and (im)mobilities at the local scale of Chinese (im)migrants1 in Flushing, New York City, which is currently the largest Chinese community on the East Coast. The project investigates how the paradox is embedded within individual Chinese (im)migrants‘ everyday routine and rhythm of life, and how it forms their imaginative geographies and impacts their identities and senses of place. I utilize a mixed method approach including: census and immigration data analysis, ethnography, interviews, mental mapping and GIS. The findings suggest that transnational and local mobile practices are simultaneously embedded in the everyday life of Chinese (im)migrants in Flushing. The urban local mobilities, limited by the socioeconomic, linguistic, and spatial-temporal constraints, intersect with and are compensated by the transnational practices, simplify their geographic perceptions of the urban space, enhance their 1 This dissertation uses (im)migrants to refer to both immigrants and temporary migrants living in Flushing.
