SUMMARY:Adornment: The Influence of Style on Art
DESCRIPTION:Notes from The Woodshed Workshop: Adornment: The Influence of Style on Art \nShow us your style! From bold patterns to intricate designs\, this hands-on session offers endless possibilities for creating personalized wearable art. \nThis free all ages art making workshop is led by our Community Engagement Fellow\, Keny De La Peña.  Exhibiting artist Robert Paige will frequently be present to have conversations with participants and answer questions about his work\, art practice\, and life as a designer/educator/fabric man.  \nRegister for workshop here \nThis workshop series is in conjunction with our exhibition\, The United Colors of Robert Earl Paige\, the largest exhibition of Robert Paige’s work to date\, which surveys the iconic textile designs and painted fabric of one of the most generative artists/designers from the South Side of Chicago. The exhibition\, corresponding public programs and upcoming catalog is part of Art Design Chicago\, a citywide collaboration initiated by the Terra Foundation for American Art that highlights the city’s artistic heritage and creative communities.  \nRobert Paige approaches art and craft as a joyful choreography between practical invention and material research. The fluid lines\, intense colors\, repeating circles and simple balance found in modernist paintings by Wassily Kandinsky\, Sonia Delaunay\, and Lazlo Maholy Nagy for example\, are equally as influential to Paige’s style as the tight basket weaving techniques and symbology of West African cultures\, the textured ripples on tree bark\, and the unfettered improvisations of the Chicago jazz powerhouse the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM).  Raised in the Woodlawn neighborhood\, where he still resides\, Paige makes artworks in response to the patterns\, colors\, and materials of everyday Black life. Paige playfully challenges the juxtaposition of art and craft in his hand-dyed textiles\, cardboard collages\, and ceramic tiles to encourage mental and physical liberation for all.

SUMMARY:Kool-Aid colors: Color Theory in Black Art
DESCRIPTION:  \nNotes from The Woodshed Workshop: Kool-Aid colors: Color Theory in Black Art \nExplore the rich hues of Kool-Aid as a medium to create vibrant watercolor paintings while learning about the significance of color in Black art and culture. Perfect for all ages\, this activity combines creativity with cultural education for a truly unique artistic experience. \nThis free all ages art making workshop is led by our Community Engagement Fellow\, Keny De La Peña.  Exhibiting artist Robert Paige will frequently be present to have conversations with participants and answer questions about his work\, art practice\, and life as a designer/educator/fabric man.  \nRegister for workshop here \nThis workshop series is in conjunction with our exhibition\, The United Colors of Robert Earl Paige\, the largest exhibition of Robert Paige’s work to date\, which surveys the iconic textile designs and painted fabric of one of the most generative artists/designers from the South Side of Chicago. The exhibition\, corresponding public programs and upcoming catalog is part of Art Design Chicago\, a citywide collaboration initiated by the Terra Foundation for American Art that highlights the city’s artistic heritage and creative communities.  \nRobert Paige approaches art and craft as a joyful choreography between practical invention and material research. The fluid lines\, intense colors\, repeating circles and simple balance found in modernist paintings by Wassily Kandinsky\, Sonia Delaunay\, and Lazlo Maholy Nagy for example\, are equally as influential to Paige’s style as the tight basket weaving techniques and symbology of West African cultures\, the textured ripples on tree bark\, and the unfettered improvisations of the Chicago jazz powerhouse the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM).  Raised in the Woodlawn neighborhood\, where he still resides\, Paige makes artworks in response to the patterns\, colors\, and materials of everyday Black life. Paige playfully challenges the juxtaposition of art and craft in his hand-dyed textiles\, cardboard collages\, and ceramic tiles to encourage mental and physical liberation for all.

SUMMARY:Creative Wing Open Studio Night
DESCRIPTION:Meet our Radicle Residents and Creative Wing artists in their studios during our Summer edition of Creative Wing Open Studio Night! Connect with artists\, collectors\, and curators in our community over light bites and refreshments. This event is free and open to all. Radicle Studio Residents are rooted for a year at the Art Center through high-quality\, free studio space where they make work\, research new projects\, have access to the Art Center’s broad International network of artists and resources\, and connect with a dynamic public.  \nMeet the Residents: \nLeila Tamari \nLeila Tamari’s artistic practice currently explores belonging through relationship to place\, identity\, and money. Her work derives meaning through the relationships she develops\, which are created through collaboration and facilitation. She aspires to cultivate a culture of care; so love and play are essential ingredients in her creative endeavors. Some of her past collaborations include exchange/value\, The Sistah Friends Project\, Hyperopia: 20/30 Vision\, and Contracts with Ourselves. \nLeila carries a lineage of people who were the displaced\, as well as the displacers. Her heritage spans African and Jewish diasporas\, and as the daughter of immigrants\, one of her lifelong quests is coming into deeper understanding and relationship to “home.” She is interested in creating pathways to reparations through place-based re-investment\, and she is curious about how art will lead us there. \nLeila founded This Place Works (TPW) – her creative home and consultancy – to live into the many expressions of her art practice. At TPW\, she takes on various roles from artist coach\, cultural strategist/advisor\, organizational healer/facilitator\, and more. Her professional experience spans organizing\, public art production\, and wealth redistribution. \nYasmin Spiro \nYasmin Spiro was born and grew up in Kingston\, Jamaica and currently lives and works in Chicago. Spiro’s work is multi-disciplinary\, primarily based in sculpture and immersive installations\, with video\, drawing and performance – exploring issues of cultural identity and socio-economic issues within the framework of urban development and social politics – often through the lens of Caribbean culture.  \nSpiro’s work explores concepts related to architecture and urbanism\, socio-economics\, futuristic cities\, and craft and culture. Research is often layered with personal narratives connected to both the landscape and culture of Jamaica. Spiro’s body of work explores materiality\, and is often textile based\, and also utilizes wood\, rope\, and cast materials – plaster\, ceramic\, and cement. Creating architectural elements that reference futurism and femininity in our built environments\, her studio practice pulls in various aspects of personal and cultural history to build stories within the work – layered with conceptual research\, and material experimentation.  \nSpiro’s work has been shown at galleries internationally\, recently at the Arts Club of Chicago. Her work has been covered in Art News\, Interior Design\, NewCity\, Washington Times\, Miami Herald and others. She attended Pratt Institute and has held residencies at the Dora Maar Foundation\, The Kohler Arts and Industry residency\, Vermont Studio Center\, and the Chicago Artist Coalition. \nKeith S.

He has worked with or taught new media with Kenyon College\, the Field Museum\, the Adler Planetarium\, and the University of Chicago. \nNatasha Moustache \nNatasha Moustache is a photo-based installation artist whose work explores identity\, shared histories\, and familial ties within colonized spaces. Moustache’s work reflects their experience as a first-generation\, Seychellois-American\, examining African Diasporic ties across oceans and manmade borders. They regularly engage strangers as collaborator-participants\, utilizing portraiture\, and the reimagining of domestic spaces through installation. Moustache is interested in bringing the human community into a conversation with itself that transcends difference and emphasizes commonality.  \nMoustache completed their MFA (2021) at Columbia College Chicago and their BFA (2004) at Simmons College in Boston\, Ma. Their work has most recently been shown at the Vermont Center for Photography\, the Lubeznik Center\, the Hyde Park Arts Center\, the Houston Center for Photography\, and the International Center for Photography.

They were a 2021 MOCP Snider Prize Honorable mention and a 2020 Hopper Prize finalist. \nLetaru Dralega \nLetaru Dralega is a Ugandan Jamaican British artist and researcher based in Kampala. Her mixed media process-centered practice is concerned with themes of memory and belonging.

SUMMARY:The History and Meaning of Adinkra Symbols and Cultural Aesthetics historically and in Contemporary Art
DESCRIPTION:Notes from The Woodshed Workshop: The History and Meaning of Adinkra Symbols and Cultural Aesthetics historically and in Contemporary Art \nJoin us for a creative Adinkra symbol activity! Use stencils and rubbings to design your own vibrant and meaningful artwork\, exploring the rich cultural heritage of West African symbols. Perfect for all ages! \nThis free all ages art making workshop is led by our Community Engagement Fellow\, Keny De La Peña.  Exhibiting artist Robert Paige will frequently be present to have conversations with participants and answer questions about his work\, art practice\, and life as a designer/educator/fabric man.  \nRegister for workshop here \nThis workshop series is in conjunction with our exhibition\, The United Colors of Robert Earl Paige\, the largest exhibition of Robert Paige’s work to date\, which surveys the iconic textile designs and painted fabric of one of the most generative artists/designers from the South Side of Chicago. The exhibition\, corresponding public programs and upcoming catalog is part of Art Design Chicago\, a citywide collaboration initiated by the Terra Foundation for American Art that highlights the city’s artistic heritage and creative communities.  \nRobert Paige approaches art and craft as a joyful choreography between practical invention and material research. The fluid lines\, intense colors\, repeating circles and simple balance found in modernist paintings by Wassily Kandinsky\, Sonia Delaunay\, and Lazlo Maholy Nagy for example\, are equally as influential to Paige’s style as the tight basket weaving techniques and symbology of West African cultures\, the textured ripples on tree bark\, and the unfettered improvisations of the Chicago jazz powerhouse the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (AACM).  Raised in the Woodlawn neighborhood\, where he still resides\, Paige makes artworks in response to the patterns\, colors\, and materials of everyday Black life. Paige playfully challenges the juxtaposition of art and craft in his hand-dyed textiles\, cardboard collages\, and ceramic tiles to encourage mental and physical liberation for all.

SUMMARY:Let’s Talk About Art: with Judith Russi Kirshner and Kathryn Kucera
DESCRIPTION:Please join prominent curator Judith Russi Kirshner and Alice Shaddle’s dear friend\, artist Kathryn Kucera for a guided tour of the exhibition Alice Shaddle: Fuller Circles\, followed by a discussion of the work.   \nAlice Shaddle: Fuller Circles explores Shaddle’s life and work in the context of Chicago’s kaleidoscopic art world from the 1960s into the 2000s\, highlighting her association with Artemisia Gallery for many years. It includes an early\, daring paper sculpture\, remnants from her elaborate floor installations\, boxes with haunting visages\, and elaborate cut paper collages.  \nAlice Shaddle: Fuller Circles\, on view at the Hyde Park Art Center through June 16. The exhibition catalog will be available at this free public program. \nJudith Russi Kirshner \nCritic\, curator\, and educator\, Judith Russi Kirshner retired as Deputy Director of the Art Institute and Womens Board Endowed Chair of Education in 2016. Previously Kirshner served as Dean of the College of Architecture and the Arts at the University of Illinois at Chicago from 1997 to 2013. She was consulting Editor for Into the City: History of Chicago Art and Design eds. M. Taft and R. Cozzolino (University of Chicago Press\, 2018) and authored “Cruelly Bound: Drawing \nand the Archive of Christina Ramberg’s Practice” in The Making of Husbands: Christina Ramberg in Dialogue\, (KW\, Institute for Contemporary Art\, Berlin\, 2019-2020)\, and “Christina Ramberg’s Diary\, 1969-1980\,” for the Art Institute of Chicago’s Christina Ramberg exhibition catalogue\, forthcoming 2024. \nKirshner held the position of Curator at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago from l976 to l980\, and at The Terra Museum of American Art from l985 to l987. Her recent publications include “Carla Lonzi: Encountering American Art\,” in Feminism and Art in Postwar Italy: The Legacy of Carla Lonzi (2021). \nKathryn Kucera \nWhile my interest in making art began in early childhood\, it ebbed during the years when my four young children needed me. During those years I planned and shared experiences of art with my children in museums and through creative projects while my own need to make art mounted to a keen pitch by the time they became more independent. \nIt was then when I enrolled in the Masters Program at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and embarked on what was a spiritual experience for me. . . After graduation I became an active member of Artemisia\, a buzzworthy women’s coop gallery in Chicago. It was during the 1970s when the spirit of feminism prevailed and influenced my work. \nAt that time I worked obsessively with mixed media on a fairly large scale\, gradually turning to collage\, a medium that corresponded ideally with my life. At that time I was balancing family goings-on along with teaching and traveling. The flexibility and immediacy of working with paper collage in far away places inspired me to capture unfamiliar transitory experiences and fleeting impressions\, ideas. \nAnd since that time my life has become more settled and sedentary. I have turned to the computer as a means of creativity\, and I process my creative ideas and impulses digitally. Doing art digitally excites me and engages me endlessly as I keep discovering remarkable processing capabilities to realize\, even discover ideas in experimental ways.

Composed of visual and sound artist Caleb Yono\, ambient tape improviser Mahnu\, and violinist and singer Johanna Brock. \nAbout Suspended Culture Collective: \nSuspended Culture is an emerging Black art collective based in Chicago\, IL. A Suspended Culture is a culture on pause\, a movement interrupted\, a dream deferred. As a collective of visionaries\, our work together inhabits the liminal space of a dream. Time is no longer necessary here; rather\, time collapses into an ever-expanding radical presence. In a Suspended Culture\, we play. We rehearse the future and we invite love to bind us to what liberates us. A Suspended Culture considers love a revolutionary practice through which it can conjure anything required\, and a Suspended Culture exists in an alternative reality rooted in love. A Suspended Culture embodies Afro-surreal interpretations of Black futures\, embraces the absurd\, and thinks with the body. A Suspended Culture uses pleasure as its map and sinks into the portal of “Yes\, and…”. A Suspended Culture is a moment of rest! \nSTI Testing Sexual Wellness Counseling Provided by Chicago House \nAbout Chicago House: \nChicago House is committed to preventing new HIV transmissions and ensuring that individuals who are faced with a diagnosis are linked to care.

SUMMARY:The People's Ring Shout
DESCRIPTION:In conjunction with our exhibition\, The United Colors of Robert Earl Paige\, Honey Pot Performance presents The People’s Ring Shout\, an experimental movement and sound workshop inspired by traditional ring shout rituals. As a core symbol in Honey Pot Performance’s practice\, they engage this early Black Americana form of movement\, song\, and collectivity to explore the power of embodied Black heritage and spirituality. HPP’s exploration of the ring shout derives from their original work Ladies Ring Shout\, an evening length performance and celebration of Black women and femme voices\, that explored themes such as representation\, love\, trauma\, quality of life\, spirituality\, healing\, and defining communities of care.  \nAbout Honey Pot Performance \nHoney Pot Performance is a creative collaborative chronicling Afro-feminist and Black diasporic subjectivities amidst the pressures of contemporary global life. \nHoney Pot Performance enlists modes of creative expressivity to examine the nuances of human relationships including the ways we negotiate identity\, belonging and difference in our lives and cultural memberships. Dismantling the vestiges of oppressive social relationships is part of the work. Through critical performance\, public humanities programming\, and deep community engagement\, we emphasize everyday ways of valuing the human. \nFollowing in the footsteps of cultural workers such as Zora Neale Hurston\, Beryl McBurnie\, Pearl Primus and Katherine Dunham\, Honey Pot Performance forefronts African diasporic performance traditions. We draw upon a central notion found in performance studies\, black feminist discourse and sociology: non-Western\, everyday popular and/or folk forms of cultural performance are valuable sites of knowledge production and cultural capital for subjectivities that often exist outside of mainstream communities.

SUMMARY:Hyde Park Art & Centered
DESCRIPTION:This Mental Health Awareness Month\, we invite you to join us for a free day of wellness activities to center your mind with art\, yoga\, and workshops! \nYoga Class \n11-11:50AM \nJoin yoga instructor\, Carrie McGrath\, of West Town Unwind\, for a free moderate vinyasa flow! Guests are encouraged to bring their own yoga mats. \nWest Town Unwind offers laid back yoga and community events in beautiful and unique venues throughout West Town and surrounding neighborhoods. West Town Unwind partners with neighborhood businesses to offer yoga classes and events with sliding scale prices. Our goals are to: provide a fun space to try something new\, open the door for connection and community\, and inspire and be inspired by each other. \nAbout Carrie McGrath \nCarrie first found yoga shortly after moving to Chicago in 2012; she took a class at a gym out of curiosity and it’s been a love story ever since. She believes yoga feels good as a workout\, but the satisfaction you feel when you go to class and find that you are now able to reach just a little further\, or are finally able to get into a pose that wasn’t previously attainable – that’s the great stuff. For her\, the journey is as satisfying as the individual classes. \nIn late 2020\, Carrie had hip surgery to repair a torn labrum. At first she feared this would prevent her from practicing yoga and limiting exercise\, in general. However\, she found it to be a new challenge that helped her expand her practice\, refocusing more on safe recovery and form rather than just getting a good sweat. \nCarrie’s favorite yoga classes are ones that feel almost like choreography\, seamlessly moving from one pose to another\, encouraging you to forget what you’re doing and just feel good and go with the flow. \nCarrie believes that one’s entry point into yoga can set the tone for how they feel about it in the long run. Her goal is to curate classes that are fun\, accessible to a wide variety of people\, and give students something to connect with or strive for after class. \nWe Felt Everything: Art Making Activity with Lucia Calderon-Arrieta \n12-1PM \nTeaching artist\, Lucia Calderon Arrieta\, will lead participants in a brief needle-felting project where participants will consider the feelings they want to cultivate in their lives. Participants will be prompted to free-write about their feelings\, identify a story or narrative associated with one or two of them\, and create a felt charm to help them carry that intention with them. \nThe People’s Ring Shout \n1-2:30PM \nIn conjunction with our exhibition\, The United Colors of Robert Earl Paige\, Honey Pot Performance presents The People’s Ring Shout\, an experimental movement and sound workshop inspired by traditional ring shout rituals. As a core symbol in Honey Pot Performance’s practice\, they engage this early Black Americana form of movement\, song\, and collectivity to explore the power of embodied Black heritage and spirituality.

SUMMARY:Open Archive Session: Ascending Descending (1978) Film screening and Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Join artist Sandra Binion\, filmmaker Amos Poe\, and film historian Bruce Jenkins in a screening of Binion and Poe’s recently uncovered 1978 collaborative film Ascending Descending. The film offers a rare insight into the early careers of Binion and Poe\, both of whom went on to prolific careers. In Ascending Descending\, Poe’s hand-held camera followed Binion in her ascent and descent of a multi-story fire escape\, while oboist Joel Marangella improvised on the street below. \nNow restored from the original super-8 film with a recording of the original music\, Ascending Descending is a direct and personal example of the collaborations and intersections among performers\, media artists\, and musicians in the experimental crucible of 1970s New York. Film historian Bruce Jenkins will provide important insights into the film\, putting it into the context of 1970s New York experimentalism\, punk and No Wave sensibilities\, and the increasing agency of female artists in performance and media arts during the period that continue to influence artists today. \nSandra Binion and Bruce Jenkins will appear in person\, with Amos Poe joining on Zoom. This special Open Archive Session screening of Ascending Descending is presented as part of the exhibition Sandra Binion: Autobiography of Looking\, taking place at Experimental Sound Studio and throughout Chicago from April 12 – June 9\, 2024

SUMMARY:Sandra Binion: Autobiography of Looking  - Open Archive
DESCRIPTION:Open Archive Walk-ins \nThis is a self-guided exploration of Binion’s archive in the company of the archivist. \nDaily from 10:00–12:30\, except Thursdays (April 15-26) \n\n\n\n\nSandra Binion’s archive conveys the trajectory of her fifty-year career from her early stages as a solo performance artist in the mid-1970s through her expansion into installation\, video\, sound\, photography\, painting\, scent\, and literature that continues unabated. It traces her path through many cities in the US\, Europe\, and Japan over five decades and the many encounters with the artists and communities that have shaped her acute sensibility. \nThe Residency will include Open Archive Sessions featuring the work of Chicago-based interdisciplinary artist Sandra Binion\, offering visitors a rare\, in-depth\, personal engagement with the artist and the curator and archivist Mariana Meíja. During this two-week Residency\, attendees will have the opportunity to handle original documents\, photos\, correspondence\, sketches\, performance props\, scripts\, scores\, and notebooks that reveal Binion’s detailed working process and her collaborations with notable artists including musicians Lawrence “Butch” Morris\, Tatsu Aoki\, Leroy Jenkins\, and Harrison Bankhead; performer Eponine Cuervo Moll; filmmaker Amos Poe; photographer Dirk Bakker; and architect Marc Dilet. These sessions invite fellow artists\, community residents\, and students to explore\, engage\, question\, and discuss artistic process across disciplines with the artist in person. In addition\, individuals are welcome to make one-on-one appointments to ensure accessibility to all who are interested. The Open Archive Sessions at HPAC complement Sandra Binion: Autobiography of Looking\, a retrospective exhibition at Experimental Sound Studio and a performance series at various Chicago venues\, taking place April 12 – June 9\, 2024.
