  • Cauleen Smith: Black Utopia LP (For Sun Ra)
    FILM AT REDCAT PRESENTS Mon April 15 | 8:30 pm | Jack H. Skirball Screening Series $10[students $8, CalArts $5] Cauleen Smith: Black Utopia LP (for Sun Ra) Los Angeles Premiere Premiered at Chicago’s threewalls artspace, Black Utopia LP is a deeply original off-shoot of the years of research artist and filmmaker Cauleen Smith devoted to Afrofuturism, a cultural movement that mixes science fiction, fantasy, non-Western religion and Afrocentrism. Chicago legend Sun Ra (1914-1993) and his Arkestra were a key figure in this movement. Smith produced over 800 35mm slides: images of objects found in archives, recorded in contemporary Chicago or appropriated from occult, astronomical, and historical sources. The slides are projected in a 90 min performance over two sides of an LP she recorded – a collage of lectures, rehearsals and live performances by Sun Ra, mundane ephemera, as well as commissioned contributions from Chicago artists Krista Franklin and Avery R. Young. In person: Cauleen Smith “Deeply empathetic yet often lyrical, Smith’s constellational approach to filmmaking parallels Sun Ra’s freestyle compositions and spiritual belief in the astral world, while reawakening the political possibilities of black experimental culture.” —Art in America Experimental filmmaker Smith was a long-term resident of threewalls, first joining the space in 2010 as part of the Studio Chicago program in conjunction with the Sullivan Galleries at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Initially Smith intended to extend her on-going film work on jazz, radical black creativity, and the American urban matrix to a work on Chicago and the legend and impact of Sun Ra.

  • Pastoral Poetry Was Traditionally Intended to Idealize
    1. HOOD PASTORAL Note: Pastoral poetry was traditionally intended to idealize the “innocence and simplicity” of rural life and natural landscapes, in contrast to the “corruption and evils” of city life. Nate Marshall’s work attempts to flip the pastoral tradition on its head by illustrating portraits of Chicago’s South Side. “...my book employs a ‘hood pastoral’ aesthetic to re-establish the urban landscape as one capable of the greatest beauty...” - Nate Marshall List: Names of places in or around your neighborhood (excluding your home) that you visit at least once a week Places you are excited to go to (past present future) Places you hold in your memory Places in Chicago you are fascinated by or really love Places you remember or are familiar with that are problematic Read: Candy Store by Nate Marshall (from Wild Hundreds) on the front porch or in a basement kitchen a sour pickle fat as a child’s forearm with a peppermint stick stuffed in the middle sits inside a jar. plastic sandwich bag jammed with Frooties or Tootsies. past-prime Sour Patch Kids or fruit chews sticky & stubborn to the chew. a piece of hard candy on a ring & wrapped in plastic ready to hand to that neighbor’s cousin with the light eyes & white teeth. salt & sour chips or the dill flavor in the bright green bag. fluorescent barrel juices With foil tops.

  • Colored by the Sea: Arts of the Black Atlantic Fall 2017
    Colored by the Sea: Arts of the Black Atlantic Fall 2017 Instructor: Sampada Aranke Mondays, 1-4 pm in Spertus 707 Office Hours: Mondays, 11:30 am-12:30 pm or by appointment Where is the Black Atlantic? What does it look, smell, taste, and feel like? How does it color our world? This class explores the visual and cultural history of the Black Atlantic—a phrase used to define the relationship between dissonant geographical locations that were forged into relationship with each other through the Transatlantic Slave Trade. We will forge an understanding of how vision, texture, touch, sound, and color owe their meanings through the Middle Passage and its production of arts of the Black Atlantic. Crucial to this class is the artwork of practitioners like Jacob Lawrence, Soly Cissé, the Carribean Artist Movement, Aubrey Williams, Faustin Linyekula, Julie Mehretu, and Renee Green. We will focus primarily on the visual history and cultural impact of the Middle Passage as discussed through the writings of Afro-Caribbean, West African, Black American, and Black British scholars. We will work with concepts like “native” visual forms, the coloniality of painting, Négritude, and the anticolonial imagination. Course Objectives and Learning Outcomes: Areas of Knowledge • Acquire introductory knowledge of core concepts and theories of modernity, blackness, and aesthetics • Compare key interpretative visual vocabularies and theories as applied to critical race approaches to blackness and visual culture • Acquire comparative approaches to visualizing and

In 1968, Joe and Lucianne Carmichael purchased the site and sought to preserve the 7.66 acres of endangered forest for its great value as wetlands and as a powerful source of creative inspiration and education.
