1 Parsons the New School for Design Fine Arts COLLAB Parsons The New School for Design Fine Arts COLLAB: SexEd PSAM 3710A CRN 5133 Spring 2014 Wednesdays: 9am-2:40pm, 2 West 13th St., Room 1102 Professors: Norene Leddy + Liz Slagus [email protected] [email protected] 212-229-8942 (Fine Arts Department) Office hours are by appointment only. If you need to reach us outside of class please email both faculty members: [email protected] and [email protected]. If you don’t hear from us within 24 hours, please resend it. Norene also has a mailbox in the Fine Arts office, 25 E. 13th St. 5th Floor. Bios Norene Leddy's work examines how technology is used in relationship to marginalized populations. Projects include working with sex workers, inner-city girls, LGBTQ youth, and others to explore ways that high and low technology can be used for protection and self expression, from the latest in GPS and mobile software to simple DIY kits. In addition to drawing, video, sculpture and installation; related performances and workshops are frequently part of her artistic practice. Her work has been shown internationally at venues including Eyebeam (New York), Henie Onstad Kunstsenter (Norway), and Sarai Media Lab (India). She has been the recipient of numerous grants, awards and residencies including a Fulbright Fellowship, two Eyebeam residencies, and funding from NYSCA, Bronx Council for the Arts, and the Experimental Television Center. In September Leddy was nominated for a 2011 World Technology award. Leddy earned her B.F.A. from Boston University in 1994 and a M.F.A. from Parsons The New School for Design in 2000, where she is now a Part-time Assistant Professor. In 2008, Leddy started an ongoing curatorial collaboration with Liz Slagus. Together they have curated exhibitions for Cuchifritos, City Without Walls, Kean University, and Gallery Aferro among others. Liz Slagus Liz Slagus is the Director of Public Programs for the NY Hall of Science, a part-time adjunct faculty member of Parsons-The New School, and founder/co-curator of the SexEd Project. She consults in the areas of art and technology education, public programming and community engagement. In 2009, the State Library of Queensland awarded her the Creative Fellowship for Art & Technology to develop the programming and outreach strategy for Brisbane’s new digital culture center, The Edge. During 2008, she produced the youth component for the 01SJ Biennial (San Jose, CA), and co-curated “1800 Frames” for City Without Walls (Newark, NJ)—beginning a curatorial partnership with Norene Leddy. Between 1998-2008, Slagus developed and managed Eyebeam’s education programs, exploring new teaching and learning techniques and models for engagement. As Director of Education and Public Programming, she co-curated and oversaw large-scale exhibitions, and Eyebeam’s public presentations. She holds a BA in Art History and Anthropology from Bucknell University and an MA in Visual Arts Administration from NYU. Course Description SexEd (http://sexedproject.org) is an ongoing quest to expose the current state of sexual education in the US, encourage a public discourse around the topics of sexual health and education, and develop a sex education curriculum that is artist-inspired and community- 1 based—something currently not in existence in the United States. Through a series of collective and individual assignments, the SexEd: Chapter 2 Collab will engage students as collaborators in developing sex education content for use online and in classrooms. We will be working in concert with the students and school-based health center at the Washington Irving Campus (WIC). Artwork, PSAs, role-playing exercises, performances and games will all be explored as proposals for new ways of thinking and re-thinking sex education. Throughout the semester, students will contribute to the course blog (and on occasion invited to contribute to the SexEd blog) via assignments that require them to write, draw, review and document current sex education resources and offerings; creating a new and continually updated survey of public sex education information. A weekly journal-sketchbook will be used to develop a method of diagramming and planning projects; responding to class lectures and screenings; recording notes and reviews of exhibitions and educational workshops; and discussions in class and out in the world. Through the practice of drawing, writing and documenting with sketchbooks and the blog, students will understand how the topic of sex education can reach the public via a myriad of artistic methods and outcomes. All content will be credited and belong to the students who created it. Screenings of video art, performance art, actions and films made by artists and filmmakers throughout the 20th century and the present, will help students to analyze various forms of media, which artists and activists have employed to explore social topics and effect change with the public. Students will learn about the theoretical issues particular to social practices and engagement. Additionally, students will read a variety of short texts to further their understanding of the topics of sex and sex education, social engagement and the relevance of documentation and the impact of technology on perception, art and cultural development. Throughout the semester, students will be introduced to academics, contemporary artists, technologists and designers who work in and/or are making projects to related fields via guest speaking engagements and invited critiques. Students will also visit exhibits, talks/happenings, and workshops throughout New York City to further their knowledge of the uses of various tools and media by contemporary artists for public engagement. SexEd Mission: The SexEd project is an ongoing quest to expose the current state of sexual education and encourage a public discourse around the topic of sexual health through a series of artist commissions and community collaborations. Contemporary artists with a social practice tackle tough issues and take on multiple roles: artist, activist, community organizer, spotlight and microphone. With these abilities, such artists are able to challenge, raise consciousness, give voice to the disenfranchised, visualize alternatives, and galvanize efforts. For over 40 years, Krzysztof Wodiczko’s public and technical interventions with marginalized communities— from Poland to Mexico to Japan to the US—have served to give voice to specific issues and traumas, often not merely facilitating awareness, but also dialogue around solutions. Paul Chan’s work with and for the city of New Orleans to produce public performances of Samuel Beckett’s “Waiting for Godot” in the middle of the Ninth Ward reengaged the community and public in a conversation about a city and people devastated and in limbo. Mierle Laderman Ukeles’ “Touch Sanitation” had her shaking the hands of 8,500 of New York City’s sanitation workers to acknowledge unrecognized workers for their incredibly important role in the city, and raise awareness of labor issues and our relationship to waste in general. We witnessed how, during the height of the AIDS crisis in the late 80s and 90s, the galvanizing efforts and imagination of Act Up! changed forever the landscape and look of protest and social activism. Working closely with artists whose work has this social practice focus, we 2 will commission work, grant residencies, and fund publications and community collaborations to develop a sex education curriculum that is art-inspired, community-based and does not currently exist in the United States.
