  • Hewitt Gallery of Art Catalogues: Psychogeography
    psychogeographyartists’ responses to place [and displacement] in real and imagined spaces april 1 - may 1, 2019 gallery director’s statement Frederick Brosen Psychogeography explores artists’ responses to place [and displacement] in real and imagined spaces. From the psychic Ben paljor chatag to the specific, from recollection to recording, the works in this exhibit recreate the power of place in the human jeFF chien-hsing liao imagination. The nine artists in this group exhibition have traversed the dahlia elsayed globe, from the North Pole to Alexandria, Egypt, from Tibet to Italy, and from Flatbush to Central Park. Some travel in ellie ga the imaginative realms, others may never leave the studio. This exhibit takes inspiration from the notion of dérive or kellyanne hanrahan “drifting,” a word coined by French Marxist philosopher, Guy Debord, one of the founders of the Situationists International emily hass movement. Hallie Cohen | Director of the Hewitt Gallery of Art matthew jensen “One can travel this world and see nothing. To achieve sarah olson understanding it is necessary not to see many things, but to look hard at what you do see.” curated By hallie cohen - Giorgio Morandi aBout the artists Frederick Brosen’s exquisite, highly detailed watercolors capture the light, the architecture, and the aura of a New York City street or a Florentine strada, while Ben paljor chatag’s watercolors deal with “inner qualities” he discovered in Tibet before emigrating to the United States. Taiwanese-born jeFF chien-hsing liao’s large- scale black and white photographs of the iconic Central Park are based on the Chinese lunar calendar and call to mind the vertical format and multiple perspectives of traditional Chinese landscape painting.

  • CSI in the News
    CSI in the News July 2012 csitoday.com/in-the-news Archive csitoday.com/publication/csi-in-the-news COLLEGE OF STATEN ISLAND The City University of New York Table of Contents Arts & Events . 3 Faculty & Staff . 6 Stories . 55 Students & Alumni . 85 Arts & Events Page 3 of 134 A Wider Spectrum By Stephen Greco 11 Jul 2012 When the New York Philharmonic plays its Concerts in the Parks, the entire city is invited. Stephen Greco reveals the inspirations and ambitions behind this long‐running cultural gift to New York City. Enjoying open‐air music with your neighbors is as old as civilization itself. New York leaders doubtless had this in mind back in the 19th century when, as part of a broader quality‐of‐life agenda, they endowed their growing metropolis with masses of magnificent public parks. These were places where culture and nature could come together, where urbanites could experience the richest kind of “cultural citizenship.” As such, the parks make a perfect setting for a New York cultural treasure that is, in fact, 15 years older than Central Park itself — the New York Philharmonic, which this July continues its tradition of playing free concerts throughout the boroughs of New York City. “I’ve always wanted the Orchestra to have a meaningful connection to the city,” says Philharmonic Music Director Alan Gilbert, a native New Yorker. “I want it to be a source of civic pride, to be a resource for the city, to be an obvious expression of what is great about the city.” Alan Gilbert and the New York Philharmonic in Central Park on July 14, This year’s return of the Philharmonic’s Concerts in the Parks 2009 features five free outdoor concerts, presented in some of the city’s photo by Chris Lee loveliest locales.

  • The Demographics and Production of Black Poetry
    Syllabus Week 1: The Demographics and Production of Black Poetry Resident Faculty: Howard Rambsy Visiting Faculty: James Smethurst, Kathy Lou Schultz, Tyehimba Jess, Brenda Marie Osbey Led by Rambsy, the Week 1 readings, activities and lectures will address significant recurring topics in the discourse on African American poetry—black aesthetics, history, cultural pride, critiques of anti-black racism, music and performance—and concentrate on major trends, popular poets and canonical poems and genres. We will identify and discuss several major poets, including Amiri Baraka, Jayne Cortez, Nikki Giovanni, Carolyn Rodgers, and Dudley Randall whose works began circulating widely during the late 1960s and early 1970s. We will consider how the BAM intersects with and distinguishes itself from other related poetry movements like the Beat Generation. We look at the configuration of contemporary black poetry, as poets become identified by subject matter, region, movement and/or collective like Cave Canem Poets, the Affrilachian Poets, and the National Poetry Slam Movement that began in 1990. Rambsy, Kathy Lou Schultz, Smethurst and Graham will give lectures that provide NEH Summer Scholars with an overarching sense of poets in the field as well as major events and circumstances that have shaped African American poetry. As specialists who have written about poetry and literary history, Rambsy, Schultz, and Smethurst will collectively provide foundational concepts and material for understanding and teaching black poetry. The week will also include discussions and readings by poets Tyehimba Jess and Brenda Marie Osbey, which will give NEH Summer Scholars chances to consider persona poetry and the presence of history in contemporary poems.

If you can’t be free, be a mystery.” • RITA DOVE Program design by RobertMottDesigns.com GALLERY OPENING AND RECEPTION • DUKE HALL Events & Exhibits Special Time collapses as Nigerian artist Wole Lagunju merges images from the Victorian era with Yoruba Gelede to create intriguing paintings, and pop culture becomes bedfellows with archetypal imagery in his kaleidoscopic works. Such genre bending speaks to the notions of identity, gender, power, and difference. It also generates conversations about multicultur- alism, globalization, and transcultural ethos. Meet the artist and view the work during the Furious Flower reception at the Duke Hall Gallery on Wednesday, September 24 at 6 p.m. The exhibit is ongoing throughout the conference, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. FUSION: POETRY VOICED IN CHORAL SONG FORBES CENTER FOR THE PERFORMING ARTS Our opening night concert features solos by soprano Aurelia Williams and performances by the choirs of Morgan State University (Eric Conway, director) and James Madison University (Jo-Anne van der Vat-Chromy, director).

  • American Book Awards 2004
    BEFORE COLUMBUS FOUNDATION PRESENTS THE AMERICAN BOOK AWARDS 2004 America was intended to be a place where freedom from discrimination was the means by which equality was achieved. Today, American culture THE is the most diverse ever on the face of this earth. Recognizing literary excel- lence demands a panoramic perspective. A narrow view strictly to the mainstream ignores all the tributaries that feed it. American literature is AMERICAN not one tradition but all traditions. From those who have been here for thousands of years to the most recent immigrants, we are all contributing to American culture. We are all being translated into a new language. BOOK Everyone should know by now that Columbus did not “discover” America. Rather, we are all still discovering America—and we must continue to do AWARDS so. The Before Columbus Foundation was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit educational and service organization dedicated to the promotion and dissemination of contemporary American multicultural literature. The goals of BCF are to provide recognition and a wider audience for the wealth of cultural and ethnic diversity that constitutes American writing. BCF has always employed the term “multicultural” not as a description of an aspect of American literature, but as a definition of all American litera- ture. BCF believes that the ingredients of America’s so-called “melting pot” are not only distinct, but integral to the unique constitution of American Culture—the whole comprises the parts. In 1978, the Board of Directors of BCF (authors, editors, and publishers representing the multicultural diversity of American Literature) decided that one of its programs should be a book award that would, for the first time, respect and honor excellence in American literature without restric- tion or bias with regard to race, sex, creed, cultural origin, size of press or ad budget, or even genre.
