  • “The Piece Was Made to Demonstrate the Strength
    ATCOOPER SUMMER/FALL 2020 THE COOPER UNION FOR THE ADVANCEMENT OF SCIENCE AND ART “The piece was made to demonstrate the strength and determination that the Class of ’24 has to create artwork and collaborate across the distance that currently separates us. Instead of highlighting an individual, like a typical college commitment post, the goal of this work was to show a united trio of artists, each as important as the other in accomplishing unified goals. For me, this piece is a clear declaration of my intent to not only overcome but also to harness the unique challenges that we now face and create engaging work.” —Clyde Nichols, Class of 2024, School of Art PERSISTENCE & RESILIENCE The image on the front cover came to our attention via Instagram in May, when Clyde Nichols, an incoming first-year student in the School of Art, first posted it as his “I’m going to Cooper Union!” announcement. He provided the text in a subsequent email explaining the intent of the work. The other two students, Anahita Sukhija and Innua Anna Maria (seated) are also incoming School of Art first-years. Clyde’s work exemplifies the Cooper spirit of surpassing limitations by bringing determined, creative individuals together, whether physically or metaphorically, to build something bigger than themselves. This issue of At Cooper aims to capture that same spirit as it has played out during one of the most extraordinary periods in the 161-year history of The Cooper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art. In March, of course, the entire campus shut down—a Cooper first—due to COVID-19.

  • Lycra, Legs, and Legitimacy: Performances of Feminine Power in Twentieth Century American Popular Culture
    LYCRA, LEGS, AND LEGITIMACY: PERFORMANCES OF FEMININE POWER IN TWENTIETH CENTURY AMERICAN POPULAR CULTURE Quincy Thomas A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2018 Committee: Jonathan Chambers, Advisor Francisco Cabanillas, Graduate Faculty Representative Bradford Clark Lesa Lockford © 2018 Quincy Thomas All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jonathan Chambers, Advisor As a child, when I consumed fictional narratives that centered on strong female characters, all I noticed was the enviable power that they exhibited. From my point of view, every performance by a powerful character like Wonder Woman, Daisy Duke, or Princess Leia, served to highlight her drive, ability, and intellect in a wholly uncomplicated way. What I did not notice then was the often-problematic performances of female power that accompanied those narratives. As a performance studies and theatre scholar, with a decades’ old love of all things popular culture, I began to ponder the troubling question: Why are there so many popular narratives focused on female characters who are, on a surface level, portrayed as bastions of strength, that fall woefully short of being true representations of empowerment when subjected to close analysis? In an endeavor to answer this question, in this dissertation I examine what I contend are some of the paradoxical performances of female heroism, womanhood, and feminine aggression from the 1960s to the 1990s. To facilitate this investigation, I engage in close readings of several key aesthetic and cultural texts from these decades. While the Wonder Woman comic book universe serves as the centerpiece of this study, I also consider troublesome performances and representations of female power in the television shows Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the film Grease, the stage musical Les Misérables, and the video game Tomb Raider.

    SY21CatPages.qxp_Layout 1 7/30/21 3:20 PM Page 1 A Christmas K-4 Musical Perfectly Designed For Your Young Performers! ANTLERS A Fashionable Musical For Young Voices by Teresa Jennings & Karl Hitzemann Everyone knows that all magic reindeer just want to fly, right? Or do they? This imaginative little musical dares to consider that maybe, just maybe, a reindeer’s career outcome doesn’t have to be quite so predictable. In fact, it could be very different. Such is the case in our story, where a few recent graduates of the School of Reindeer have realized that their true passions call less for flying, and more for drawing, sewing, and crafting. In other words, they want to be fashion designers. And not just any fashion designers – ANTLER fashion designers! With a little help from their North Pole friends, notably some elves and other reindeer, they decide to showcase some of their fabulous couture on the runway. Unbeknownst to them, Santa and Mrs. Claus just happen to catch some of the show and are very impressed. So much so that they invite the designers to create new antler fashions for the “famous eight” – and just in time to wear for their big night out! Designed for ease of production and flexibility, this delightful musical offers opportunities for creativity, imagination, and artistic expression. With five simple and memorable songs (and some action music), young performers will delight in the chance to not only create their own stylish antler designs, but to showcase them as they walk, strut, sway, and sashay across your performance area this holiday season.
