Purpose: Given the Historical Exclusion of U.S Purpose: Given the historical exclusion of U.S. Latinx visual art in major museums and collections, artists, scholars, curators, and patrons have taken grassroots measures to preserve the cultural contributions of Latinx artists by forming community art organizations, research centers, artist collectives, websites, and databases. However, to date, there does not exist a comprehensive list of where these entities exist, how they were formed, and who they serve. What are the organizations that actively support Latinx visual artists via funding, advocacy, and/or archival means on local, regional, and national levels? Furthermore, where is Latinx visual art supported online, in what ways, and by whom? In 2019, the Center for Comparative Studies in Race & Ethnicity (CCSRE) at Stanford University awarded two un- dergraduate students, Shannen Orquidia Torres and Miguel Samano, summer fellowships to research these questions with USLAF. Under Dr. Rose Salseda’s advisement (USLAF Associate Director; Assistant Professor, Art & Art His- tory, Stanford University), the two students developed the “List of Advocates for Latinx Art,” a resource provided by USLAF for scholars, researchers, and other parties interested in the long and ongoing legacy to support Latinx visual art in the United States.

Their lived expe- rience informs their research on Black and Brown struggles in urban communities and how artwork, like graffiti, reflects this history. Moreover, they are interested in how artists’ work within urban communities leads to personal and collective radical- ization. Orquidia Torres is currently working on their B.A. at Stanford University in Comparative Studies in Race and Ethnicity (CSRE) with a concentration in Identity, Diversity and Aesthetics. In 2018-19, they were a fellow for the Institute for Diver- sity in the Arts (IDA) and, in 2019, a fellow of CSRE’s Community Based Research Program. Miguel Samano earned a B.A. from Stanford University in Comparative Literature and Chicana/o-Latina/o Studies in 2019. He researches the social aesthetics of race and ethnicity and the historiography of Chicana/o/x and Latina/o/x art. His senior honors thesis centered the role of affect in identity formation through close readings of murals and exhibition ephemera. In 2019, Samano received the Arturo Islas Jr. Prize and Renato Rosaldo Jr. Award, both for academic achievement and commitment to Chicana/o/x Studies, and he was a 2018-19 Hume Undergraduate Fellow at the Stan- ford Humanities Center. He presented his research on murals as performance ephem- era at the 2019 Latino Art Now! Conference in Houston, Texas.

  • Ofcom Complaint Assessment
    OfcomOfcom Broadcast Preliminary and On Demand View Bulletin Published 17 September 2020 Britain’s Got Talent Type of case Broadcast Standards Outcome Not Pursued Service ITV Date & time 5 September 2020, 20:00 Category Protection of children/generally accepted standards/dangerous behaviour/due impartiality Summary This programme included a performance by the British dance group Diversity which represented the events of 2020, including the Coronavirus pandemic and global anti-racism protests. We concluded that the programme did not raise issues which warranted investigation under the Broadcasting Code. Ofcom received approximately 24,5001 complaints about the above programme. Complainants outlined a range of concerns about Diversity’s performance, including that the themes of violence and racism were inappropriate for family viewing, that it expressed support for the political organisation ‘Black Lives Matter’ and that it was racist towards White people. Ofcom also received a number of messages of support and praise for the performance. Ofcom has assessed this programme against the relevant rules in the Broadcasting Code (“the Code”). Our assessment is that this programme did not raise any issues which warranted investigation. In our view, Diversity’s performance was an artistic expression of topical social issues and did not contain any content which was racist, unsuitably violent or otherwise inappropriate in the context of this programme. Given the significant publicity surrounding this case and the high volume of complaints received, we have decided to publish our reasons for this assessment. 1 As of 09:00 on 17 September 2020. 1 Introduction Britain’s Got Talent is a talent programme broadcast on ITV, which aims to find a new act from the general public to perform at the annual Royal Variety Performance and win a prize of £250,000.

  • Centre Stage the Pipeline of Bame Talent
    CENTRE STAGE THE PIPELINE OF BAME TALENT AndrewAndrew Lloyd Lloyd Webber Webber FoundationFoundation INTRODUCTION— hen I produced Bombay Dreams over a decade ago and was privileged Wto introduce the marvellous music of A R Rahman to a West End audience, one of our greatest difficulties was finding enough Asian actors. BAME diversity in the performing arts has once again been high on the agenda this year, from the runaway success of Hamilton on Broadway to the latest announcement from Arts Council England of £4.6 million to boost diversity. Very often the discussion is focussed on increasing the representation of diverse ethnicities on stage and this is crucially important. However, I’ve been acutely aware that one of the biggest issues is the lack of trained diverse talent coming through. Casting directors and theatre producers alike often complain that they’d like to cast more Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic performers but that they don’t get enough turning up to audition. Inspired by some of the success stories coming out of the Andrew Lloyd Webber Foundation’s scholarship programme – such as Emmanuel Kojo who is interviewed in these pages – the Foundation decided to commission this " I PASSIONATELY research. The aim was to come up with some positive recommendations that BELIEVE THAT can be adopted by people involved at every stage of the talent pipeline from THE STAGE NEEDS school to stage. TO REFLECT THE DIVERSITY OF THE UK I passionately believe that the stage needs to reflect the diversity of the POPULATION OR IT UK population or it risks becoming side-lined.

While the overall tenor of the observance remained laudatory regarding Columbus, his achievement, and the subsequent “settlement” 1 of the New World by Europeans, some Americans insisted that media and other popular representations of the offi - cial recognition elided important aspects of this historical moment and its aftermath. Protests and counterdemonstrations ranged from mild to mili - tant with churches, schools, and indigenous and other activist groups cri - tiquing the limited portrayal of the yearlong commemoration.

  • The Oceania Cruises Art Collection
    THE OCEANIA CRUISES ART CoLLECTION THE OCEANIA CRUISES ART CoLLECTION “I had the same vision and emotional connection in our art acquisitions as I did for Marina and Riviera themselves ­­– to be beautiful, elegant, sophisticated and stylish. The ships and art are one.” – Frank Del Rio 2 | OCEANIA CRUISES ART COLLECTION Introduction In February of 2011, Oceania Cruises unveiled the cruise ship Marina at a gala ceremony in Miami. The elegant new ship represented a long list of firsts: the first ship that the line had built completely from scratch, the first cruise ship suites furnished entirely with the Ralph Lauren Home Collection, and the first custom-designed culinary studio at sea offering hands-on cooking classes. But, one of the most remarkable firsts caught many by surprise. As journalists, travel agents and the first guests explored the decks of the luxurious new vessel, they were astounded to discover that they had boarded a floating art museum, one that showcased a world-class collection of artworks personally curated by the founders of Oceania Cruises. Most cruise lines hire third party contractors to assemble the decorative art for their ships, selecting one of the few companies capable of securing a collection of this scale. The goal of most of these collections is, at best, to enhance the ambiance and, at worst, to simply match the decor. Oceania Cruises founders Frank Del Rio and Bob Binder wanted to take a different approach. “We weren’t just looking for background music,” Binder says. “We wanted pieces that were bold and interesting, pieces that made a statement, provoked conversation and inspired emotion.” Marina and her sister ship, Riviera, were designed to eschew the common look of a cruise ship or hotel.
