SUMMARY:The Native Caribbean Heritage Preservation Project - Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:2018 Loisaida Artistic Residency Recipient\, Anthony Rosado presents:\n\n\nThe Native Caribbean Heritage Preservation Project – Exhibition\nFriday\, March 23 from 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm through Friday March 30\, 2018 \n\nExhibition Description: \nNí’Tiñao means “relative; friend; progenitor” in Kalinago\, and is eponymous with the Taíno peoples of the Caribbean. Rosado’s work focuses on historical\, indigenous Caribbean definitions of identity and the influence of their values\, spirituality\, horticulture\, and language today\, as well as our relation to these definitions right here in Loisaida. \nRosado’s exhibition aims to refute euro-colonial claims that the Ní’Tiñao were a divided peoples who went extinct. Via art and storytelling\, we exist. \nObjective: \nIn effort to honor Arawak Tainx ancestors of the Caribbean while providing their scions with the legitimacy and empowerment of cultural identity\, The Testourmonials Project will research\, draft\, and present an Arawak Tainx Heritage Day that intends on one day being celebrated annually and internationally.  As Founder and Artistic Director of The Testourmonials Project I will develop a campaign and build a case to support city-wide\, national\, and international commemoration of the Arawak Tainx Heritage.  \nVisitors of my Open Studio Residency will have access to traditional and modern practices cultivated by Arawak Tainx ancestry.  Through partnership with The Loisaida Center\, the “Arawak Tainx Heritage Day” will ensure unity and mobility for intersectional needs of Tainx progenies.  Unity will be present during a hands-on workshop\, community discussion\, performance showing\, and exhibition.  The intersectional needs of Tainx descendants will be revealed via interviews with revolutionaries actively preserving the Arawak Tainx culture.  Your participation on this journey\, which will continue long after the Residency’s end\, is the vital mobility produced from our advocacy against erasure of Arawak Tainx traditions. \nThe project aims to research\, archive\, and memorialize the herstory\, history\, principles\, spirituality\, practices\, and core values of the indigenous peoples of the Caribbean.  Following research\, the “Tainx Heritage Day – Celebration Model” will be drafted.  This model will be shared with organizations indigenous to the Arawak Tainx peoples via online survey and interviews\, as well as the aforementioned workshop and community discussion.  The model will consequently be redrafted considering review by active members of the Arawak Tainx community and their modern day practices.   Once the model is complete\, a proposal will be drafted and campaign launched to consider the “Arawak Tainx Heritage Day” an annual city-wide\, then state-wide\, thereafter country-wide\, and finally internationally recognized holiday.  The holiday will be presented during Summer 2018 via promotion during events\, workshops\, festivals\, and more hosted by organizations who supported the holiday’s culmination. \n\nThe Testourmonials Project will host an exhibition at Loisaida Inc. Center opening Monday\, March 26 – 30\, 2018. The exhibition will be relaying information\, sources\, reflections\, visual art\, commissioned photography\, and an installation to share the research.\n\n\nAbout Anthony Rosado: \n  \n\n

SUMMARY:Restoring the heart of Ni'Tiñao - Exhibition Closing
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for the closing reception of Restoring the Heart of Ni’Tiñao! \nA part of: The Native Caribbean Heritage Preservation Project & Exhibition. \n\n\nNí’Tiñao means “relative; friend; progenitor” in Kalinago\, and is eponymous with the Taíno peoples of the Caribbean. Loisaida Inc.’s artist-in-residence\, Anthony Rosado’s\, work focuses on historical\, indigenous Caribbean definitions of identity and the influence of their values\, spirituality\, horticulture\, and language today\, as well as our relation to these definitions right here in Loisaida. His exhibition aims to refute eurocolonial claims that the Ní’Tiñao were a divided peoples who went extinct. Via art and storytelling\, We Exist\, he tells us.Objective: \nIn effort to honor Indigenous Caribbean ancestors while providing their descendants with the legitimacy and empowerment of cultural identity\, The Testourmonials Project will research\, draft\, and present an Indigena Caribe Heritage Day that intends on one day being celebrated internationally. As Founder and Artistic Director of The Testourmonials Project\, Rosado will develop a campaign and build a case to support city-wide\, national\, and international celebration of Caribbean Heritage. \nThe project aims to research\, archive\, and memorialize the herstory\, history\, principles\, spirituality\, practices\, and core values of the native peoples of the Caribbean. This project contributes to the “Ní’Tiñao Heritage Day – Celebration Model”. This model will be shared with organizations indigenous to the Ní’Tiñao via interviews\, as well as a community engagement workshop and performance components. \nDescendants will learn of traditions\, practices\, values\, and foods cultivated by ancestors whose stories are made accessible. The model will consequently be redrafted considering review by active members of the Arawak Tainx community and their modern day practices. Once the model is complete\, a proposal will be drafted and campaign launched to consider the “Ní’Tiñao Heritage Day” an annual city-wide\, then state-wide\, thereafter country-wide\, and finally internationally recognized holiday. The holiday will be presented during Summer 2018 via promotion during events\, workshops\, festivals\, and more hosted by organizations who supported the holiday’s culmination. \nThrough the course of the residency at the Loisaida Inc.

SUMMARY:Taller de Soles (Sol Lace Workshop)
DESCRIPTION:Sol Lace Workshop /// Taller de Soles\nwith: Zaida Adriana Goveo Balmaseda \nDescription\nLearn how to make beautiful and intricate lace pieces through a simple and meditative\ntechnique with Puerto Rican fiber artist\, Zaida Adriana Goveo Balmaseda\, who will\nintroduce us to the technique as it is worked in her native country of Puerto Rico.\nUnderstanding the essence of the technique gives us a vocabulary that we can apply in\nboth traditional and experimental/contemporary contexts. \nWhat are Soles?\nSol lace is a type of needle lace usually worked in pieces or appliqués. The technique\nconsists of drawing a net of thread and then weaving and knotting radially to form\npatterns. It has its origins in Spain and arrived to the Americas in the 16th century\,\nwhere it continued to develop into variations known as Ñandutí\, Soles de Maracaibo\,\nRenda\, and simply Soles. Sol Lace is most often used to decorate heirloom clothing\,\nbaby blankets and home linens\, but also assembled to create beautiful lace fabrics and\naccessories. \nWorkshop – “Immersive Introduction to Sol Lace” – 6 hrs\nJoin us for an immersive workshop\, where you will learn about the origins of the\ntechnique and see traditional and contemporary examples. Zaida Adriana will share the\nbasic knowledge to make Soles of different sizes\, shapes\, and decorative patterns. You\nwill leave with two completed Soles\, and the materials to keep creating and\nexperimenting. \nDetails\nDuration total: 6 hours (2 days)\nLanguages: English and Spanish\nLevel: No previous knowledge required\nNumber of participants: min. 5\, max. 8\nPrice: $80 (includes materials fee)\nMaterials included in KIT: Sol cushion\, Sol pattern\, needle\, thread\, and instruction\nbooklet\nDates: Monday\, April 23rd from 6-9pm / Tuesday\, April 24th 6-9pm \nAbout Zaida Adriana Goveo Balmaseda\nZaida Adriana Goveo Balmaseda is a fiber artist whose work serves as a hands-on\nmanifesto of the symbiotic relationship we can have with our surroundings. She makes\nslowly and mindfully\, using local/organic fibers\, recycled or found materials\, and natural\ndyes. These materials are transformed through traditional craft techniques she\nrespectfully re-contextualizes. Her practice weaves together fiber-art\, soft sculpture\,\nmaterial rescue\, and contemplative performance. \nZaida Adriana advocates the slow\, ethical and hand-made through talks and workshops\nat places like Duduá\, Manufacture NY\, Slow Fashion Spain/Ethical Fashion Academy\,\nEileen Fisher\, Bloomingdales\, and the Brooklyn Museum of Art. She serves as the\nCountry Coordinator of the Fashion Revolution movement in Puerto Rico. \nAs recipient of the Lexus Grant for Artists\, she is currently exhibiting a large installation\ninspired by Sol lace at the Museum of Art of Puerto Rico\, and is an Artist in Residence\nat Beta-Local’s La Práctica. During the month of April\, she is visiting NY and taking part\nin the Textile Arts Center’s Work In Progress Residency. \n\n \nPowered by Eventbrite

SUMMARY:Dome Building Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Dome Building Workshop \nA project by: Matthew Mottel in collaboration with Loisaida Inc. \nSunday\, May 6 from 2:00 pm to 4:30 pm (estimated time) \n\nOverview: \nThe history of dome building on the LES goes back to when CHARAS built domes in collaboration with Buckminster Fuller in 1972/73. Syeus Mottel documented this effort in his photo-journalism book CHARAS THE IMPROBABLE DOME BUILDERS \, first published in 1974 and now re published in 2017 by Song Cave Press & Pioneer Works. \nThrough a collaborative project between Loisaida Inc.\, La Plaza Cultural de Armando Perez and DIAP (Digital Intermedia MFA program at City College)\, artist and researcher Matthew Mottel (Syeus Mottel’s son) will build 2 geodesic domes (one at La Plaza and the other at the Loisaida Inc. Center’ courtyard) as an interactive art installation. In interviewing Carlos “Chino” Garcia as part of his research\, Matthew was told that the domes CHARAS built functioned as both recreational activity spaces and as experimental examples of how to build disaster relief housing in non urban areas. The same functions apply now. The dome at La Plaza Cultura\, will be seen from the street\, with high visibility. This will bring people to the other dome in the courtyard and exhibition happening at Loisaida Center\, which will feature a more detailed documentation of the original events of 1972-73. \nThis work highlights the achievements of CHARAS and hopefully expands the pressure on the NYC mayoral office to follow through on their promise to re-acquire El Bohio for the Loisaida community. \nThe week of the exhibition opening\, many public performances\, talks and workshops will transpire in both the Loisaida Center dome\, and at La Plaza Cultural. These events will be influenced by the type of programming that happened during the 20+ years of events and exhibitions of El Bohio before being pushed out of its iconic and historic location on 9th Street\, formerly known as P.S. 64. \n\nResources: \nThe Improbable Dome Builders \nMatthew’s essay on the book. \nThe video that will be screened during the exhibition opening; CHARAS IS ALIVE ON SPACESHIP EARTH –  Wednesday\, May 9 at 6:00 pm \n \n\nSchedule\, Programming & Activities: \n\nSaturday\, May 5 at 6:00 pm – Archive exhibition of the 1972/73 CHARAS Geodesic Dome opens during Fiestas de Cruz at Loisaida Center.\nSunday\, May 6 at 2:00 pm – Dome Building Workshop where participants will assist in the building of a 12′ geodesic dome. There will also be a special screening of archival footage from Bucky Fuller. \nWednesday\, May 9 at 6:00 pm – Geodesic Domes unveiled with exhibition at Loisaida Center and La Plaza Cultural with performance by poet Edwin Torres.\nThursday\, May 10 at 12:00 pm – Exhibition hours at Loisaida Center.\nFriday\, May 11 at 6:00 pm – Exhibition hours at Loisaida Center + Oral history project of the Lower East Side  featuring interview with Chino Garcia by the Greenwich Village Society for Historic Preservation\, with documentary screening of Matthew Mottel’s video CHARAS IS ALIVE ON SPACESHIP EARTH at 6:00 pm.\nSaturday\, May 12 at 12:00 pm – Exhibition hours at Loisaida Center + performances in the afternoon thru evening at La plaza Cultural and Loisaida Center Courtyard.

In the mold of Churchill and Fornes\, Lying Lydia is a mysterious and darkly funny chamber work featuring masterful performances from some of Caborca’s veteran actors\, as well as an original soundscape by Keenan Hurley. \n\nTruth may have died in the disaster. Two women are confined and forced to paint the landscape that may have once been. One of them is Margaret. The other is Lying Lydia\, so called because everything she says is a lie. How do you know? Listen\, you can hear her thinking. Like they said you would.\nLOISAIDA INC. CENTER\n710 E 9th Street\, Manhattan\nFree Admission\n7pm \n\nAbout Caborca: \nHailing from Puerto Rico\, US America and beyond\, Caborca makes sprawling\, adventurous works in theatre and film. Combining epic auteurship with a tuned ensemble of actors and a flux of collaborators\, we bridge language\, background and media\, inviting our audience\, guest artists and members alike\, to delve into the pleasure of seeing anew. \nCaborca steals its name from the novel The Savage Detectives\, by Roberto Bolaño\, in which a magazine of the same name is the official organ of visceral realism. \n\nOpinions like those expressed while in a panel\, event or presentation\, performance or through artwork are expressed by the author in his personal capacity and are the author’s own. They do not necessarily reflect the views of Loisaida Inc. its affiliates or staff.

SUMMARY:Decolonial & Third World Studies: Discussion & tour with Antonio Serna
DESCRIPTION:Decolonial & Third World Studies: Discussion & tour with Antonio Serna\nThursday\, October 25\, 2018 from 7:00 PM to 8:30 PM\n\n\n\nPanel Discussion: 7:00–8:30 PM*\n*Pre-Event: 6:15 PM Exhibition Walk-thru with artist Antonio Serna \n\nPanelists: Macarena Gomez-Baris\, J. Kēhaulani Kauanui\, Conor Tomás Reed. \nModerated by Patrick Jaojoco. \n\nSince the 1960s\, students of color have fought to decolonize campuses across the Americas. One of their goals was to introduce studies related to their own experiences and include their history outside of the dominant Eurocentric lens. We will discuss some of the original demands and achievements\, and compare them to the current wave of decolonizing academia.Secondly\, one of main concerns in the project Our Time is to highlight the racism in the arts as affecting all people of color across America. \nWe ask\, what can we gain from a comparative ethnographic analysis of this history? What are the limits and pitfalls of such study? How does it affect the visual arts and visual cultural studies in general (framework of research\, production\, participation\, and consumption)?As a third discussion point\, we will consider spaces of resistance\, noting Esteban Izquierdo Mejia’s intro to Spaces of Cultural Resistance that is similarly echoed in Macarena Gomez-Barris’ intro to The Extractive Zone. Can we consider examples of the importance of spaces of resistance (decolonial or otherwise) that\, as Mejia notes\, “operate to create imagined geographies of belonging that challenge the effects of cultural oppression at the local and regional level?” \nThis panel is held in conjunction with “Documents of Resistance: Our Time” Antonio Serna’s exhibition and residency at The Loisaida\, Inc. Center\, September 14–October 28\, 2018.

My goal is to develop several specific in depth projects under this expansive umbrella. Specifically\, for my residency at The Loisaida Center\, I will be focusing on ‘Our Time\,’ a multimedia installation that chronicles the connections and relationships between people\, places\, and events that influenced artists of color. Central to ‘Our Time’ is a series of 4 visual timeline-collages that contextualize this unique history. The timelines include historic images of protests against racism in museums in New York and collective activities in places such as Watts and East Los Angeles\, among other political activities. By giving visual form to this history\, we can gain an overview of overlapping concerns\, cross-cultural themes\, and socio-political forces that affected the studio production and protests organizing of artists of color. Over the span of my residency at The Loisaida Center visitors\, special guests\, and the public will be ask to comment and contribute to the project. \nDuring the research and development phase of the residency\, the artist will conduct a Call for Public Participation\, to participate please fill out this form. \nOutcome\, exhibition:\nDocuments of Resistance: Our Time\nSeptember 14th – November 30th \nExhibition Closing: Friday\, November 30th\, 2018 – 11am to 5pm \nFor his exhibition\, ‘ Documents of Resistance: Our Time\, the upcoming exhibition at Loisaida\, resident artists Antonio Serna\, is creating timelines to highlight the art and activism of artists of color.
