EUQINOM Gallery at 1295 Alabama Street, San Francisco, CA 94110 Hours: Wednesday – Saturday, 12:00 - 5:00 PM, Open by Appointment Only E U Q I N O M ​ g a l l e r y ​ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE EUQINOM Gallery at 1295 Alabama Street, San Francisco, CA 94110 Hours: Wednesday – Saturday, 12:00 - 5:00 PM, Open by appointment only. Four Artists Rodney Ewing Adama Delphine Fawundu Rodrigo Valenzuela Giorgia Valli September 16 - October 31, 2020 EUQINOM Gallery is pleased to present Four Artists: an annual introductions exhibition that brings ​ ​ together contemporary artists Rodney Ewing, Adama Delphine Fawundu, Rodrigo Valenzuela, Giorgia Valli. Each artist explores issues of identity in various ways from the personal to the communal to the political. Four Artists will be on view from September 16 - October 24, 2020. ​ ​ Rodney Ewing’s latest series, Broken Shadows began during the 2020 pandemic’s shelter-in-place. ​ ​ ​ Originally created as a way to structure his time, the project evolved into a mining of his old silkscreens and ledger papers collected while an artist-in-residence at San Francisco’s Recology center. The work continues conversations about diaspora, place and identity with complex layerings of imagery where the visual depth mirrors the intensity of the subject matter. Pieces of Ewing’s archival material are now mixed with silkscreened images of Breonna Taylor, George Floyd and Ahmaud Arbery alongside other figures and moments from African-American history. Adama Delphine Fawundu’s work takes the ancient West African deity, Mami Wata, as a departure ​ point and builds on her engagement with her Mende heritage of Sierra Leone. Linking known and under-recognized geographies of the African diaspora, Fawundu’s work upends national and temporal borders. Water and hair are two textures that permeate the work. For Fawundu, water symbolizes the horrific journey of slavery and the journey that her parents chose when they moved to the US. Hair remains a socially-engineered construct of beauty and was also used as a mapping device for runaway slaves through the formation of cornrows. Uncovering nuanced entanglements within such sources of oppression, Fawundu re-imagines and glorifies the strength of her identity, culture, and network of kin. Rodrigo Valenzuela’s New Land constructs scenes and narratives that point to the tensions between ​ ​ ​ individuals and the societies in which they live often highlighting the experiences of undocumented immigrants and laborers. Valenzuela considers the ideology of Manifest Destiny as well as the failures of the Homestead Acts that quickened the settlement of public land west of the Mississippi River. Valenzuela’s images of barren desert landscapes, the iconographic American West, invoke both these ideas of expansion and opportunity as well as painful histories of erasure that resonate with present-day debates on immigration, border control, gentrification, and climate change. A collection of photograms from Giorgia Valli called Universo express a desire to materialise the ​ ​ ​ ​ restlessness of daily thoughts, dreams and interior worlds. Made with the ground from her childhood garden, she investigates both memories and the reality of her present life tracking the migration pattern of personal life experience. By attempting to map her own subconscious, she seeks to create a visual euqinomgallery.com | San Francisco | [email protected] E U Q I N O M ​ g a l l e r y ​ proof or record of her own unconscious mind and then creates her own system for decoding and understanding the maps with legends made of symbols and braille-like markings. From this complex and involved process emerges the unique, Lyrical Constellations-photograms of mysterious encrypted ​ ​ symbols hand sewn on paper. About Rodney Ewing Rodney Ewing, San Francisco, CA. Ewing’s drawings, installations, and mixed media works focus on his need to intersect body and place, memory and fact to re-examine human histories, cultural conditions, and events.

    En hommage à Samuel Paty Lettre de Camus à Louis Germain, son premier instituteur Cher Monsieur Germain, J'ai laissé s'éteindre un peu le bruit qui m'a entouré tous ces jours-ci avant de venir vous parler un peu de tout mon cœur. On vient de me faire un bien trop grand honneur, que je n'ai ni recherché ni sollicité. Mais quand j'ai appris la nouvelle, ma première pensée, après ma mère, a été pour vous. Sans vous, sans cette main affectueuse que vous avez tendue au petit enfant pauvre que j'étais, sans votre enseignement, et votre exemple, rien de tout cela ne serait arrivé. Je ne me fais pas un monde de cette sorte d'honneur mais celui-là est du moins une occasion pour vous dire ce que vous avez été, et êtes toujours pour moi, et pour vous assurer que vos efforts, votre travail et le cœur généreux que vous y mettiez sont toujours vivants chez un de vos petits écoliers qui, malgré l'âge, n'a pas cessé d'être votre reconnaissant élève. Je vous embrasse, de toutes mes forces. Albert Camus Extrait de la réponse de Monsieur Germain Avant de terminer, je veux te dire le mal que j'éprouve en tant qu'instituteur laïc, devant les projets menaçants ourdis contre notre école. Je crois, durant toute ma carrière, avoir respecté ce qu'il y a de plus sacré dans l'enfant: le droit de chercher sa vérité. Je vous ai tous aimés et crois avoir fait tout mon possible pour ne pas manifester mes idées et peser ainsi sur votre jeune intelligence.

    FESTIVAL 2 STAT E M E NT FESTIVAL AT A 3 - 4 GLANCE 5 - 8 SATELLITE SPACES 11 - 26 SCHEDULE 27 MEDIA CENTRES 28 PA RTNE RS 29 - 30 PRODUCTION FESTIVAL STATEMENT The iconic power of CHALE WOTE lies in its fuelling of a persistent reconstruction of the present and the creation of egalitarian realities. Our 9th cycle coincides with centuries old abolishment of triangular traffic of human-merchandise and the brutal harvesting of bodies of Africans into a torturous fate of exile. Over 500 years later, Africans and people of African descent are confronted with a more sophisticated order of mass displacement and strife. The continent is on the precipice of a major shift that will completely reset how we engage the rest of the world, and the socio-political upheavals we are currently witnessing are birth pangs of an audacious movement of a people longing to live in dignity. At Chale Wote this year, over 160 artists from Ghana and across the world will create a collaborative open-air exhibition that celebrates our kinship throughout the global south and our shared humanity. Chale Wote is our very own post- independence cultural renaissance spreading throughout the continent and energising young creators and cultural workers. We welcome the world into Accra to join us as we deep dive into the Pidgin Imaginarium. Afi ooo Afi!! DAY 1: Wednesday August 14 DAY 8: Thursday August 22 CHALE WOTE FILM LABs 6-9PM The LABs 3-9PM Museum of Science and Technology, Panel Discussions, Performances and Accra Film Screenings Presentation by Alexis B.

Featuring photography, mixed media, a virtual reality installation, and sculpture, the show revisits received narratives and invites viewers to re-examine both past and present.

  • The Institute of African American Affairs + Center for Black Visual Culture Activism: the Artist/Scholar & Social Practice
    The Institute of African American Affairs + Center for Black Visual Culture Activism: The Artist/Scholar & Social Practice FALL 2018 Cover image: Chillin’ with Lady Liberty, Renee Cox, 1998 The Institute of African American Affairs (IAAA) and Center for Black Visual Culture (CBVC) at New York University are both interdisciplinary spaces for students, faculty, post-doc fellows, artists, scholars and the general public. Founded in 1969, IAAA’s mission continues to research, document, and celebrate the cultural and intellectual production of Africa and its diaspora in the Atlantic world and beyond with a commitment to the study of Blacks in modernity through concentrations in Pan- Africanism and Black Urban Studies. The CBVC, expanding on that mission, is a space for scholarly and artistic inquiry (framing and reframing) into the understanding and exploration of images focusing on black people globally with critical evaluation of images in multiple realms of culture, including how various archives and the development of visual technologies affect the construction of representations. The goals of IAAA and CBVC converge to promote and encourage collaborative research projects, experimental learning and open spaces to the larger community for broad and thematic discussions through various, diverse and dynamic public programming and initiatives by way of conferences, lectures, workshops, screenings, exhibitions, readings, performances, visiting scholars, artist residencies and publications. 2 Activism: The Artist/Scholar & Social Practice Citizenship and rights are topics and perhaps “conditions” that countries have always had to be engaged and struggled with over time. Who is allowed to enter and become a citizen with rights and which rights are given to certain citizens are now more than ever at the forefront on the global stage.

  • Penumbra Foundation Selects Six Outstanding Emerging Artists for 2020 Workspace Program
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE June 16th, 2020 Penumbra Foundation Selects Six Outstanding Emerging Artists for 2020 Workspace Program Penumbra Foundation today announced its selections for the Penumbra 2020 Workspace Program, which supports outstanding emerging artists working in the photographic arts. The artists are Robin Crookall (New York), Christine Elfman (Portland, Maine), Adama Delphine Fawundu (New York), Arash Fewzee (New York), Whitney Hubbs (Alfred, New York), and Martyna Szczęsna (New York). The Penumbra Workspace Program facilitates emerging artists of all colors, all genders and all ages with time, workspace, resources and support to get them and their work closer to the distribution platform that is the city of New York. Each artist will receive a one time stipend to use in researching, photographing, experimenting, scanning, printing, working on an exhibition, and/or editing a book. For one month, the artists have access to Penumbra’s darkrooms, digital tools, alternative processes lab, and shooting studios as well as technical and theoretical support. Program director Leandro Villaro explained the importance of the Penumbra Workspace Program: “Our residency gives artists the possibility to engage in a dialectic practice with historical photographic processes and the history of photography. Given the widespread abandonment of analogue processes, there remain fewer opportunities for artists to explore these fundamental pathways and techniques. Artists can explore and experiment not only by thinking about the medium in relation

  • A Season of Exhibitions Dedicated to Photography in the African Diaspora
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Museum of the African Diaspora (MoAD) presents A season of exhibitions dedicated to photography in the African Diaspora Plus a solo exhibition of the video work of Rashaad Newsome (San Francisco, CA)—This fall, the Museum of the African Diaspora (MoAD) presents an exhibition season dedicated to photographic practices. Highlighting some of the most significant photographers living and working in America today, as well as the work of fifteen diverse African photographers, four exhibitions, including the only U.S. showing of the traveling exhibition Africa State of Mind, Adama Delphine Fawundu’s The Sacred Star of Isis and Other Stories, Laylah Amatullah Barrayn’s Baye Fall: Roots In Spirituality, Fashion And Resistance, and Black is Beautiful: The Photography of Kwame Braithwaite, celebrate the diversity of photographic representation throughout the African Diaspora. The Museum also presents a solo exhibition of the video work of Rashaad Newsome, whose work is deeply invested in how images used in media and popular culture communicate distorted notions of power. He draws attention to the contributions that marginalized communities, whose culture is often absorbed and co-opted by mainstream advertising platforms, have made to pop culture and society in general. The works on view focus on voguing, the highly stylized dance form that emerged in the 1980s from Harlem’s queer ballroom culture. In addition, MoAD will be showing the work of DeShawn Dumas as part of its Emerging Artist Program. Africa State of Mind September 4-November 15, 2019 Curated by the eminent British writer, broadcaster, and curator Ekow Eshun, this major exhibition is produced by New Art Exchange, Nottingham, UK and has also travelled to Impressions Gallery, Bradford, UK.

Über jene ist jetzt zu sprechen, über die andere im folgenden § 3. Anmerkung. Das Prädikat dieser These ist zweigliedrig, weil es einen doppelten Begriff enthält, nämlich das Fehlen der Fähigkeit des Empfindens und der Empfindung bei einem ungeeigneten Subjekt. § 2 Was die Apatheia in bezug auf die Fähigkeit des Empfindens ist. Die Apatheia ist hinsichtlich der Fähigkeit des Empfindens bei einem ungeeigneten Subjekt das Fehlen einer solchen Veranlagung, mittels deren ein Lebewesen durch empfindbare, unmittelbar gegenwärtige materielle Dinge beeinflußt werden müßte. Einzige Erläuterung. Das Subjekt ist nicht aufnahmefähig oder nicht geeignet: Eine Wesenheit, welche die Teile, Eigenschaften und Wirkungen einer anderen Wesenheit nicht in sich zuläßt, kann an diesen auch keinen Anteil erhalten. Ein solches Subjekt ist entweder ein Geist oder eine Materie. Über den Geist, der unfähig ist, eine Empfindung aufzunehmen, ist gesprochen im Abschnitt I, Kap. I mit den dazugehörigen Erläuterungen und Anwendungen. Hinsichtlich der Materie muß man unterscheiden zwischen einem lebenden und einem des Lebens beraubten Körper.
