Arsenal Gallery Exhibition: A Collective Utterance - Naima Green

2018-08-06T00:00:00.000

09:00

17:00

third floor

<p><em>A Collective Utterance</em> is a solo exhibition of photographs by the artist Naima Green, presenting a selection of images culled from her ongoing series &ldquo;Jewels from The Hinterland&rdquo; (2013&ndash;present). With black and brown artists, writers, culture workers, and thinkers positioned centrally in each image, the exhibition spans green spaces throughout New York City&mdash;such as Riverside Park, Brooklyn Botanic Garden, and Central Park&mdash;as well as select sites across the United States.</p><p>With each photograph, Green offers a statement of quietude, solace, insistence, and strength, making visible a community purportedly relegated to the margins, yet who critically inform dominant tastes and trends. These gentle, nuanced compositions are particularly urgent within the context of seemingly interminable sociopolitical crisis, where black and brown bodies are continually imaged as sites of violence and trauma. Within the framework of <em>A Collective Utterance</em>, each individual is left to be&mdash;in all of their tenderness, complexities, and intricacies.</p><p><em>A Collective Utterance</em> is organized by Oluremi C. Onabanjo.</p>

Spanning sites such as Riverside Park and Central Park, Green’s photographs present quiet, quotidian portraits—nuanced compositions that revel in her subjects’ subtle gestures, varied postures, and soft gazes.

<p>Morris-Jumel Mansion is pleased to announce the extention of the Charles Addams Family and Friends exhibit. Charles Addams Family and Friends will explore family values, rearing of children, entertaining, and family outings.&nbsp;Additionally, the exhibition looks at New York and presidential life and will feature memorabilia, as well as other Addams ephemera.</p><p>The exhibit will run until August 26. Morris-Jumel is open on Tuesdays through Sundays and is accessible by the 1, A, and&nbsp;C subway lines. For more info, please call (212) 923-8008&nbsp;or visit&nbsp;<a href="http://morrisjumel.org">morrisjumel.org</a>.</p><p>Ghoulish, macabre, demonic, depraved, bizarre, eerie and weird have all been used to describe his work and the characters therein. Adorable, sweet, charming, humorous, enchanting, tender and captivating are also adjectives used to describe the same body of work, as well as the man himself, the extraordinary artist Charles Addams. His rare gift was the ability to enjoin such dichotomies in wonderfully crafted cartoons and drawings loved by millions worldwide.</p><p>Charles Addams is most widely known for the creation of The Addams Family, characters that formed the basis of the TV show which first appeared in 1964. Now famous, Morticia, Fester, Gomez, Wednesday, Pugsley Grandmama, Lurch, and Thing existed as various forms and aspects in Addams&rsquo; cartoons prior to the sitcom. It was in working with the idea a television production that Addams coalesced a motley group of unnamed characters into the specific personages he then collectively called The Addams Family. The Addams characters appear in only about 150 Addams original works. The majority of his works are occupied by hundreds of other characters, from aviators to zoo keepers. Addams themes deal as much with modern life as with ancient times and his topics span art, travel, relationships, the workplace, animals and children, to name a few.</p>

SummerStage in association with LAMC Presents: Beatnuts / Ana Tijoux / Bodega Bamz / DJ Tony Touch

2014-07-09T00:00:00.000

18:00

21:00

<p> The <strong>Latin Alternative Music Conference</strong> (LAMC) &ndash; described by the NY Times as the &quot;Sundance of Latin music&quot; -- celebrates its 15^th&nbsp;anniversary and yet another year of&nbsp;collaboration&nbsp;with Summerstage for an exciting series of concerts featuring both classic and cutting-edge music from across the Americas.</p><p> The legendary <strong>Beatnuts</strong> are a groundbreaking rap group that emerged from Queens, New York in the late 80s and made hip-hop history with classic collaborations with Biz Markie, Fat Joe and Method Man.&nbsp;&nbsp;The Beatnuts, which includes Ju-Ju (of Dominican descent) and Psycho Les (of Colombian descent), have paved the way for new generations of Latin artists as the only Latin members of the infamous Native Tongues collective. Known for their classic hits &ldquo;No Escapin This,&rdquo; &ldquo;Off The Books,&rdquo; and &ldquo;Watch Out Now&rdquo; (which was later sampled by Jennifer Lopez for her radio hit &quot;Jenny from the Block&quot;), The Beatnuts have earned a stellar reputation for energetic live shows that showcase their diverse talents as MCs, DJs and producers.</p><p> One of the most respected MCs in any language, <strong>Ana Tijoux</strong> is set to explode with her brand new record La Bala (the bullet), the follow up to her Grammy-nominated album, 1977. Born in France&mdash;where her parents were exiled during the military dictatorship in their native Chile&mdash;Tijoux became a household name in Chile with her first band, Makiza, as well as voicing the main character in the popular animated series Los Pulentos. After going solo, she quickly gained fame throughout Latin America with a string of hits including the smash &ldquo;Eres Para Mi&rdquo; with Julieta Venegas. But the world really began to take notice when she dropped 1977, an album full of classic beats and her signature flow that harkened back to the 90s and the golden age of intellectual hip-hop. International accolades soon followed, with praise from mainstream press around the globe as well as tastemakers like Thom Yorke, and the album ended up at the top of the &ldquo;Best-of&rdquo; lists of Amazon, Billboard, and iTunes, amongst others. Now she&rsquo;s back with La Bala, a continuation in sound and spirit from this global activist and MC. Collaborations with the Oscar and Grammy winner Jorge Drexler, as well as Cuba&rsquo;s hip-hop stars Los Aldeanos, are just some of the highlights of the album. In concert Tijoux now takes the stage with her full band to flesh out the intricate arrangements of the new album. Her shows are a whirlwind trip through hip-hop, jazz, and funk, spiced up with a bit of politics and her great sense of humor that has made audiences around the globe fall in love with her.</p><p> Spanish Harlem native, Nathaniel De La Rosa publicly known as&nbsp;<a href="http://www.bodegabamz.com/"><strong>Bodega Bamz</strong></a> aka PAPI is taking the New York hip-hop music scene by storm. By infusing his rich Latino roots with his urban lyricism, Bamz has created his own sub genre known as Latin Trap. Born of Puerto Rican and Dominican descent, his culture has always played a large role in his musical inspiration. From Hector Lavoe to Tupac, Bamz has mastered the art of incorporating Caribbean sounds and raw emotion filled lyrics. His stage name alone is symbolic of his drive and deep connection to his heritage, the name Bodega comes from the concept of &quot;bodegas&quot; or corner stores being pinnacle aspects to Latino communities, and Bamz is an acronym for &ldquo;By Any MeanZ,&rdquo; and in his case he plans to provide a variety of quality music by any means necessary. Although he is a fresh face to most listeners, Bamz has been rapping for over a decade. With the help of his younger brother, and engineer, Obed &quot;Ohla&quot; De La Rosa, Bamz mixtape Strictly 4 My P.A.P.I.Z (Proud and Powerful Individualz) created an instant buzz online. Bodega Bamz has exhibited a great amount of versatility,&nbsp; not only is he paving the way for Latinos, but he is earning his way into hip-hop history.</p><p> <strong><a href="http://www.tonytouch.com/">Tony Touch</a></strong> A.K.A Tony Toca, began as a B-Boy during the rap music renaissance era of the early 80&rsquo;s, and has been a force to be reckoned with ever since. From his legendary mix tapes, to his skills on the 1&rsquo;s and 2&rsquo;s, he has become one of Hip Hop&rsquo;s most recognized DJ&rsquo;s and is known in the streets and industry as the real &lsquo;Mix tape King&rsquo;. This C.E.O/Artist/Producer recently dropped his 7^th commercial release, and over the years has worked with everyone from Nina Sky to Snoop Dogg, and Tego Calderon to KRS One. Touch is a champion for the Latino community, as well as a global icon, having toured in over 30 countries. You can catch Tony on his weekly radio shows, for more info check www.tonytouch.com.</p><p> Doors open at 6:00pm</p>

One of the most respected MCs in any language, Ana Tijoux is set to explode with her brand new record La Bala (the bullet), the follow up to her Grammy-nominated album, 1977.
