Interim Vice Provost Overview When Vice Provost Alex Miller’s retired on July 1, 2014, I was appointed to serve as Interim Vice Provost while continuing my fulltime gigs as Director and Curator of the Gregg Museum of Art & Design. Despite the temporary transition period while ARTS NC STATE sought a new permanent Executive Director (title change), there was no pause or break in the action for me or the collective. For ARTS NC STATE, 2014/2015 hardly fit the usual stopgap defi- nition of “interim” because we continued to celebrate students, community, and the arts in new and wonderful ways while we also moved forward as an organization. One amazing feat that’s close to my own heart was the April 14 groundbreaking ceremony for the new Gregg Museum building at 1903 Hillsborough Street, Raleigh. This was finally possible after Arts Development achieved the $9.1 million capital campaign goal in March. That had been the target needed to start the renova- tion of the historic Chancellor’s Residence and begin building the Gregg’s new 15,000 square foot galleries and collections wing. Interim Vice Provost Roger Manley The actual breaking of ground began in late June when H.M. Kern Corporation’s bulldozers and backhoes got down to work. The College of Visual and Performing Arts at Northern Illinois Uni- versity, where he was also a Professor of Percussion for 32 years. Meanwhile, ARTS NC STATE spread its wings in another area this year as well. For the first time, the annual Student Art Purchase On behalf of ARTS NC STATE, I sincerely thank you for all your was made open to the public. Over $3,000 of student art was sold, support during 2014-2015. The Arts are indeed for everyone! with the money going directly to the artists! Sincerely, Another milestone was University Theatre’s celebration of five de- cades of dramatic artistry with its production of Burial at Thebes, poet Seamus Heaney’s re-envisioning of Sophocles’ Antigone. Fifty years ago, Antigone was the very first production at Universi- ty Theatre, so this was a fitting tribute. With the non-stop “gap year” over, ARTS NC STATE now wel- comes Rich Holly as its new Executive Director, as of July 1, 2015. Roger Manley Prior to his appointment at NC State, Rich served as the Dean of University Theatre’s TheatreFest production, Born Yesterday.

  • Nano-Stern-The-Story-Biography
    The Story Nano Stern’s path as an artist follows richly crafted song lines laid by his family and his Chilean musical ancestry, and unites those with a sound utterly fresh and relevant. The confluence of recent student and environmental political events in his home country Chile and Nano’s rise as an articulate writer and performer have, much to his chagrin, positioned him as the voice of a newly politicized Chilean generation. The grandson of Jewish refugees fleeing persecution, Nano’s childhood was painted vivid by not only his own family’s musicianship but by the powerful legacy of the Nueva Canción movement lead by Chilean musical activists during Pinochet’s dictatorship a generation before. Legends like Inti‐Illimani and Victor Jara‐ who suffered exile and even death during these troubling times‐ continue to inspire Nano’s breadth of sound and emotion. “I am extremely respectful of the tradition,” explains Stern, “It is an enormous gift we received from the people of the past.” When only fifteen, Nano joined popular Chilean underground band, Mattoral, and thus was initiated into the fresh, new sounds and socio‐political pulse of the South American rock/punk scene. The thick rock‐energy of Mattoral, his classical and jazz training, and the powerful influence of traditional, Chilean revolutionary music make for something purely Nano. What has emerged is a powerhouse artist, brilliantly layering indigenous, African, and European elements into a sound all his own, and humbly bringing audiences to tears, to their feet, and to reverie with a singular kind of emotion and soulfulness unlike any other South American artist performing today.

    April 21 Bulletin Bulletin April 21, 2021 Greetings! This issue of the Bulletin features previews of two upcoming events, member news and new resources that we hope you will enjoy. Our top stories this week include: A recap of our April 16 book night with John Maxwell Hamilton about his book, Manipulating the Masses: Woodrow Wilson and the Birth of American Propaganda. OPC Past President Bill Holstein has summarized a recent donation of about 40 books with ties to club and member history. To kick off a series of mini-reviews from the archive, he wrote about a book called Deadline Delayed. We published a remembrance page on April 20 to recognize the 10- year anniversary of the deaths of Tim Hetherington and Chris Hondros, who were both OPC Award winners. Happy reading! John Maxwell Hamilton Examines the Birth and Legacy of American Propaganda https://myemail.constantcontact.com/April-21-Bulletin.html?soid=1102853718750&aid=wovt-DSkyW0[5/18/2021 1:21:59 PM] April 21 Bulletin by Chad Bouchard In April 1917, just two weeks after the United States joined World War I, President Woodrow Wilson launched a mass propaganda agency with unchecked power and sweeping influence to support the war and mislead the public. A new book by OPC member John Maxwell Hamilton examines the history of the Committee on Public Information, known as the CPI, how its legacy “managed to shoot propaganda through every capillary of the American blood system,” and set the stage for U.S. government media manipulation over the last century. On April 16, Hamilton discussed the book, Manipulating the Masses: Woodrow Wilson and the Birth of American Propaganda, with OPC Past President Allan Dodds Frank.

  • Michael Kamber
    Why Photography WHY PHOTOGRAPHY Michael Kamber I grew up in a time, in the 1960s and 70s, when photographs made a difference. My family got The Portland Press Herald every morning. There was always a black-and-white news image on the front page. This photo was a representation of an important event in the world from the previous day. Weekly news magazines, such as Time and Newsweek, were packed with photos too; I pored over them eagerly, occasionally cutting photos from their pages. They were my only links to far-off happenings in a distant world. The iconic photos of the civil rights movement in particular were burned into my consciousness. I studied the defiant marchers, snarling dogs, and pot-bellied Southern sheriffs with insouciant grins. Pictures from the Vietnam War changed my consciousness as well. We watched grainy clips on TV every evening. Yet it was the photos, rather than the news footage, that seared the deepest. I remember the photos and the photographers: Larry Burrow's color work from the field of battle, exhausted men and blood-stained ban- dages against the brown earth; Henri Huet, a French-Vietnamese As- sociated Press photographer, took pictures with the eye of a poet; the classic images that I would see again and again in my youth: Eddie Adams' Saigon execution photo; Nick Ut's picture of the napalmed girl running down Highway One. These photos were credited with 69 CREATIVE LIVES turning the American public against the war. These photos provided evidence of people's lives, their suffering, American foreign-policy failures; realities that needed to change.

  • MAS VALE TROCAR Songs of the Spanish Renaissance
    MAS VALE TROCAR Songs of the Spanish Renaissance Nano Stern - Voice, Nyckelharpa Gina Allende - Viola da Gamba Florencia Bardavid - Voice, Viola da Gamba Cristian Carvacho - Percussion Click and watch performances of “Mas Vale Trocar” and “Danza Alta”. MAS VALE TROCAR PROGRAM NOTES Spain’s need to find its own voice in the world after the end of its South American empire, led to the discovery of forgotten sources and voices that had for centuries lay forgotten in the libraries of Europe. In 1870 at the Royal Library in Madrid, a historian found and described what would later become the most notorious Spanish musical manuscript from the XVI century: the “Cancionero Musical de Palacio” (Palace musical songbook). This is no minor manuscript; it consists of some 450 pieces (mostly in Spanish but also in other peninsular languages such as Catalan, Basque, and Portuguese) some of which are anonymous and some of which are written by the most revered musicians of those triunfal days of Spanish culture such as Juan del Encina and Pedro de Escobar. The first impression, when facing a songbook from the XV and XVI centuries is that they are a window into the music and soundscapes of the past. But nothing could be further from the truth. In all reality, what we often find are poems with scarcely annotated melodies, and all the esthetic and interpretative tradition that surrounds them has been lost in time. How would this music, which constantly draws from popular and courtly languages, have been performed in 1520? Attempts at answering these question have been made from many different angles: either by applying the interpretative styles of the Italian renaissance, or by incorporating certain colors and tendencies still present in Spanish and Mediterranean folk music.

  • Draft Transcript 25 October AS DELIVERED the Deputy Secretary
    Draft Transcript 25 October AS DELIVERED The Deputy Secretary-General Remarks at the Opening of the “War and Peace in Liberia” Photo Exhibit Bronx Documentary Center, New York, 26 October 2018 It’s truly an honour and I’m very humbled. It’s not long ago that I joined my colleagues in Monrovia as the flag came down at the UN. It signalled a new era, a new generation that could embark upon the road to sustaining peace. It’s one thing to achieve it and it’s another to sustain it and just as our colleague from the mayor’s office said, this is a long journey and we still need to accompany them. I truly appreciate having the opportunity today to come and say a few words to pay tribute to the legacy of Tim and Chris. Where is Christina? Somebody said she was behind here. It would be really nice of you to come forward. We need to see another woman up here. *applause* I’m going to talk about my own personal experiences with Liberia. I think that, you know, many of us have stories to tell and this is really one political will to come to action. The media plays a huge role we often underestimate, and it does it through many, many means but it’s about bringing a story to life. It’s about putting a face behind a figure or percentage. It’s seeing so many of the things we just take for granted through a different lens. Today, looking at the pictures you have here, I think it’s a reminder of the legacy so many of these journalists leave behind.
