SUMMARY:ACCIONES
DESCRIPTION:ACCIONES QUE LEVANTAN A PUERTO RICO (ACCIONES)\, IS THE ONLY STUDENT ART EXHIBIT OF ITS KIND\, FEATURING 80 ORIGINAL PAINTINGS\nFROM PUERTO RICAN STUDENTS IN THE WAKE OF HURRICANE MARIA’S DEVASTATING PATH THROUGH THE ISLAND OF PUERTO RICO. \n\n\nThe CHICAS by Alejandra Foundation (CHICAS Foundation)\, a leading social movement and non-profit organization against bullying and social injustice in Puerto Rico\, announced that student art exhibit\, Acciones que levantan a Puerto Rico (Actions that lift Puerto Rico)\, ACCIONES\, will open in New York\, September 20\, 2018\, to mark the first year anniversary of the devastating path of Hurricane Maria through the Caribbean island. ACCIONES is the only hurricane-themed student art exhibit of its kind. \nFeaturing original works by Puerto Rican students\, from public and private schools\, the two-part New York presentation of ACCIONES will be available at The Loisaida Center\, September 20 through October 19; followed by the second part of the collection\, which will be presented at the Queens College Arts Center\, starting on October 4. \n“The collection communicates a profound sense of hope for the future\, as well as\, its serves as a poignant reminder of the long road ahead to help Puerto Rico fully recover from the storm’s devastation. Acciones also reveals the values that best represent the people of Puerto Rico; such as service\, family\, empathy\, solidarity\, hospitality\, culture\, love of nature and resiliency\,” expressed Frances I. Ryan\, executive director of the CHICAS Foundation. \n“Unveiling the exhibit in New York as we mark the first-year anniversary of Hurricane Maria\, is a fitting gesture of appreciation to all New Yorkers\, especially to the Puerto Rican community\, which immediately galvanized to provide humanitarian support to victims in the aftermath of\nthe hurricane\,” the CHICAS executive continued saying. \nAs one of the leading Puerto Rican community and cultural organizations in New York\, The Loisaida Center\, which in partnership with its umbrella organization\, Acacia Network\, has been at the center of New York’s humanitarian efforts to help Puerto Rico victims in the wake of Hurricane Maria. “Having ACCIONES at The Loisaida Center\, is also our way saying thank you\,” Ryan said\, adding that the presentation at Queens College provides a different\, yet very important academic setting\, consistent with the student art exhibit. \nImmediately after the passing of Hurricane Maria\, the CHICAS Foundation participated in 200 humanitarian missions around the island. Also\, in coordination with the Visual Arts Program of the Puerto Rico Department of Education\, CHICAS hosted\, Acciones\, an island wide contest for\nstudents\, grades K-12\, from public and private schools. \n\nDespite dire conditions\, nearly 100{d189f1124ffa6975f5923217354196c41f30852329af055ade71c436dc0b2403} of the island still in the dark\, without water\, telecommunications or access to roads\, an astounding 630 original works were submitted to participate in the Acciones art contest.\n\n A panel of artists\, art teachers and community leaders selected 80 paintings that became the exhibit’s official selection The CHICAS Foundation envisioned the hurricane-themed art initiative as an important communication forum for Puerto Rican students\, allowing them to express their life changing experiences and begin to heal through art. Many teachers participated in the art contest to facilitate communication with students as they returned to school after the hurricane. \n\n“Opinions like those expressed while in a panel\, presentation\, performance or through artwork are expressed by the author in their personal capacity and are the author’s own. They do not necessarily reflect the views of Loisaida Inc.\, its affiliates or staff.”

SUMMARY:Post-Cuban Cabaret with Omar Pérez at the Loisaida Center
DESCRIPTION:DESCRIPTION\n\n\n\nCuban artist Omar Pérez\, visiting from Havana\, invites performers and community members to join him in the creation of the Post-Cuban Cabaret\, an intensive workshop culminating in an evening performance. Workshop participants will do theatre exercises\, explore themes in multiple forms (music\, poetry\, dance)\, and go through improvisational situations. Omar Pérez envisions the manifestation of different cultural traditions and some focus on themes related to “island” – sea\, water\, Cuba\, Latin and Caribbean culture\, clichés\, neighborhoods\, etc. In the evening\, the workshop participants perform material that has emerged during the day. All the arts and skills of the troupe members are integrated into the performance\, which continues to be based on improvisational principles. \nWorkshop: 9:30 am to 7:00 pm\nPerfomance: 8:00 pm  \nOmar Pérez: “The Cabaret was created in Havana more than 10 years ago by contemporary dancer and choreographer Sandra Ramy and myself in order to facilitate improvisation and interaction between “artists” of various kinds: dancers\, of course\, actors\, poets and musicians but also designers\, painters\, rappers\, amateurs…whoever was willing to go through the experience of an ad hoc workshop in order to build a one-night show\, a one timer”. \nBIO: The son of revolutionary Ernesto “Che” Guevara\, poet\, editor\, and translator Omar Pérez was born and raised in Havana. He earned a degree in English at the University of Havana and studied Italian at the Universitá per Straniere di Siena. He has worked as a journalist for El Caimán Barbudo\, and as an editor for the magazine La naranja dulce. A former member of the Cuban intellectual group Paideia\, he edited the poetry magazine Mantisfrom 1994 to 1996. \nOrdained as a Zen Buddhist monk\, Pérez composes poems that engage languages\, Zen\, and political and cultural transcendence. His poetry collections include Lingua Franca (2010)\, Oíste hablar del gato de pelea?(1999\, translated as Did You Hear about the Fighting Cat? by Kristin Dykstra\, 2010)\, and Algo de lo Sagrado (1996\, translated as Something of the Sacred by Kristin Dykstra and Robert Tejada\, 2007). His translations include Italian-Cuban novelist Alba de Céspedes’s Nadie vuelve atrás(2003) and Shakespeare’s As You Like It (as Como Les Guste\, 2000). \nIntensely interested in the ways in which poetry overlays experience\, Perez noted in an interview with Jacket magazine that “the verse\, the poem\, even the rhyme\, the melody of poetry are the tip of the iceberg\, they are just one familiar aspect of a huge reality which we call consciousness […] Poetry is a natural function\, like god\, or DNA\, or rain. The fact that we can give notice of it does not mean that we make it.” \nHe received Cuba’s Nicolás Guillén Prize for Poetry for Crítica de la Razón Puta (2009) as well as its National Critics’ Prize for his essay collection La perseverancia de un hombre oscuro (2000). His work has also been featured in the anthology The Whole Island: Six Decades of Cuban Poetry\, A Bilingual Anthology (2009). He lives in Havana.

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. Support for “Documents of Resistance: Our Time” is made possible in part with public funds from Creative Engagement\, supported by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and administered by Lower Manhattan Cultural Council and the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs‘ Development Fund. \n*Pre-Event: Exhibition walk-through with artist Antonio Serna starts at 6:15 pm\nModerated by Patrick Jaojoco \nBios \nPatrick JaojocoisaBrooklyn-based arts professional\, curator\, researcher\, and writer focusing on political ecology and historiography\, in particular how creative practices and landscape interpretation can aid in public understanding of long-term ecological\, economic\, and political histories.
