SUMMARY:Michelle Nonó - Poverty\, Political Theater and Emancipatory Education in the Caribbean
DESCRIPTION:Caribbean artist and community organizer Michelle Nonó will discuss the role of social practice art in struggles for equality\, visibility and political change. Nonó and her sister compose Las Nietas de Nonó\, a performance collective that also runs an alternative art and community space in a house inherited from their grandfather in the industrial zone of San Antón\, Puerto Rico. The sisters describe the center\, known as Patio Taller\, as a site for emancipatory education in a Freyrean model\, where community members can both learn and teach according to their own abilities\, needs\, and interests. They also host residencies for other Caribbean artists and activists. Las Nietas are perhaps best known for popular theater productions\, which address issues relevant to the community such as drug abuse\, violence and incarceration\, and the cycle of poverty and discrimination that feed these behaviors.\n \nNonó will be included in the exhibition “Revolution at Point Zero: Feminist Social Practice” opening in March at the Glass Curtain Gallery in Chicago. Last year she had a Jackman Goldwasser Residency at the Hyde Park Art Center in Chicago. The sisters were also invited to the fourth edition of Casa Tomada\, a meeting of young artists\, writers and thinkers 2017 in Havana\, Cuba\, September 2017.

SUMMARY:Diana Al-Hadid Artist Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Diana Al-Hadid will discuss her upcoming NAM exhibition\, which runs from May 9 – July 24\, 2016. The works appear to be trapped in an eternal moment of precariousness and decay. Inspired by historical forms from art and architecture\, Al-Hadid’s highly material sculptures and paintings are charged with drips\, textures\, patterns\, and ornaments that recall Arabic calligraphy and Islamic textile patterns. Yet through their ruinous quality\, they simultaneously evoke absence. The works have been described as metaphorical “bridges” between the past and the present\, as well as cultural bridges between the Middle Eastern world of Al-Hadid’s early childhood and the Western world she now inhabits. \nAl-Hadid received a BA in Art History and a BFA in sculpture from Kent State University and an MFA in sculpture from Virginia Commonwealth University. She later attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Maine. Her work is included in the collections of The Whitney Museum\, The Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston\, Weatherspoon Art Museum\, and The Judith Rothschild Foundation\, New York\, among others. Al-Hadid has had solo exhibitions at the Secession in Vienna\, Austria\, Columbus College of Art and Design\, Weatherspoon Art Museum\, Virginia Museum of Fine Arts\, Nasher Sculpture Center\, Centro de Arte Contemporáneo\, La Conservera\, Nevada Museum of Art\, and the Hammer Museum.

SUMMARY:Elena Dorfman\, Syria's Lost Generation
DESCRIPTION:Elena Dorfman will discuss Syria’s Lost Generation\, to be exhibited at the museum starting May 9. For several months over the last two years\, Dorfman covered the Syrian refugee crisis for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.

SUMMARY:Alexis Esquivel Artist Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Alexis Esquivel is a Cuban visual and performance artist whose work often explores themes of history\, race\, and identity\, particularly in a Cuban cultural context. Esquivel presents the sharp perceptions of the black population’s social reality in his paintings through his nonconformist readings of history. His work details historical figures past and present that are extracted from “official” photos to be juxtaposed with cultural artifacts from the past\, or repainted following conventions of famous Western artworks. His works feature a surrealist flavor and a high dose of irony. Esquivel’s paintings appear as dense layers where even fortuitous accidents of the painting process are obvious.
