SUMMARY:Alex Romania: Jerk
DESCRIPTION:“Jerk” created and performed by Alex Romania 7:30pm\, $10 suggested \nThis physically vulnerable choreography frames the male body between violence and pleasure — a microphone is bound to the body and swung from the pelvis evoking forms in the realm of BDSM\, pornography\, athletics\, games\, and flagellation. Through genital hypnosis and rigorous discomfort\, this is a dance of (narcissistic) pleasure and (quiet) longing\, (self) mutilation and (self) care. A dance to flatten and complexify the male body\, to tenderize the flesh\, to move beyond and to newly inhabit — a phallic solo to recompose the phallus. \nWith an opening performance by Edward Sharp\n  \nABOUT THE ARTISTS: \nAlex Romania is a multidisciplinary performance-maker\, organizer\, andteacher based in NYC who has taught and shown work nationally and internationally. Besides creating performance work\, Alex organizes events with dance and performance artists in NYC (such as the ‘Get Your A$ in CLA$’ class series at Abrons Arts Center)\, holds irregular discussions and events through his collective journalism platform INVISIBLE ARTISTS (a resource to approach sustainability in the arts)\, teaches teens how to devise original performance\, video-documents live performance\, and practices Thai Yoga. Alex has performed in works by Kathy Westwater\, Catherine Galasso\, Andy de Grout\, Eddie Peake\, Jacob Slominski\, Ishmael Houston-Jones\, Simone Forti\, Steve Paxton and has collaborated with a handful of performance art collectives\, amongst other artists. \n\nEdward Sharp: \nMy fashions withstand mutiny\, as in applicants to thermodynamics\, humors bodied\, andromache mined– mutation thatches bridges aborting charon in physiology foretold bottomless immovably (representing phylum exemplification\, being outlaws of barbarian\, resolutions to theological pageant\, and so on) andromeda therein longfellow terminates (stalls\, choppy\, memorized\, textually\, etch).

SUMMARY:DecolonizeLA - Song of Eurydice

SUMMARY:DecolonizeLA - The Hag
DESCRIPTION:The Hag\, “worship\, brainstorm sesh + pizza party” \nThe Hag is suspicious of the myth of progress. We are inviting like-minded individuals\, also wary of the propagation of expensive\, exclusive “arts & culture initiatives\,” to discuss their own qualms with top-down hierarchies at the institutional level\, as well as to worship at the altar of fuck all. We will provide pizza & snacks in exchange for your ideas: how to publish\, how to intervene\, how to propose & push forward alternatives\, how to realize our fantasies for decolonizing museums & galleries in Los Angeles\, and beyond. This event is part of DecolonizeLA\, and is made possible in part by a grant from the City of Los Angeles\, Department of Cultural Affairs. \nThe Hag (est. 2016) is a guerrilla arts publishing coven founded to crush the enemies of women’s liberation in the arts.

SUMMARY:Decolonize LA - Michelada Think Tank
DESCRIPTION:“No nipple is that dark.” \nHave you had a moment in art school when you realized you can’t even talk about the work because you have to explain/defend/validate your own body/experience/everything? \nMTT member Shefali Mistry\, as part of her graduate Public Practice thesis project\, has conducted a series of interviews on the experiences of artists of color in graduate school. From these discussions\, Michelada Think Tank (MTT) continues the “PoC Survival Guide” project with a public conversation about higher education and art school. Is formal education even necessary? What if you choose a formal education? For people of color who decide to go to art school\, how do you survive? How do you thrive as an artist when the curriculum and the community don’t reflect your lived experience and your practice? \nJoin us for a think tank style generative discussion on not only what issues we face\, but WHAT CAN BE DONE. How do we advocate for our own education within these institutions? Where do we try to implement change in curriculum and hiring practices? How do we create large scale structural change to move the condition of PoC artists beyond surviving and into thriving? We know this labor shouldn’t only be our burden\, but can we do it to ensure a better education for the generations behind us? \nThis event is part of the Decolonize LA series\, and was made possible in part by a grant from the City of Los Angeles\, Department of Cultural Affairs. \nMore about the Survival Guide project:\nAre we so busy surviving that we forget to be radical? \nIn summer 2015\, Michelada Think Tank initiated the “PoC Survival Guide” project\, posing the question\, “If there was a PoC Survival Guide for Artists of Color\, What Topics Would You Want it to Cover?” The project was a tongue-in-cheek\, but critical exploration of survival under a framework of institutional racism in the arts. Through a summer residency at LACE (as part of Chats About Change) and a series of think tanks\, MTT brought people together to talk about survival strategies for artists of color working in a predominantly white art world. \nMichelada Think Tank is a group of socially conscious artists who are interested in hosting conversations\, creating safe places and opening up opportunities to connect and build relationships between people of color (PoC). Through think tank sessions\, MTT creates networks of socially-engaged /community artists interested in creative ways of making social change happen.

SUMMARY:Decolonize LA - Cura Tierra Cura presents: DIS * Locate
DESCRIPTION:A participatory performance where rocks\, pollinators\, plants and animals weave participants through critical conversation on displacement in our city and share healing practices of toning\, movement and visualization for the future. \nWe seek to articulate together a critical and poetic view of the current dis*locate landscape; spheres of influence giving voice to some and not to others.

This participatory installation and performance will share tools for healing; we seek balance.\nOpen to everyone. Displacement organizers (tennant right\, NELA\, ext) business owners\, home owners\, transplants\, gentrifiers\, policy makers\, locals\, and LA natives are especially encouraged to attend. \nArrive by 7:30 to begin the evening in an honoring of the land and its people. \nThis event is part of the Decolonize LA series\, and was made possible in part by a grant from the City of Los Angeles\, Department of Cultural Affairs.

SUMMARY:DecolonizeLA : Suzanne Kite's "Sources" and "Some Numbers"
DESCRIPTION:Kite in collaboration with James Hurwitz and Devin Ronneberg present: \n“Sources or ( x ) x + [ ( x ) x { x } x x ] { x } +” is a performance that takes a body through an environmental simulation of the Oglala Lakota cosmologyscape\, shouldering the burden of 4 female Oglala characters who have shaped space/time. The piece includes 12 sculptures\, animation\, sound\, video\, carbon fiber\, clothing\, and movement\, developed from an obsessive hyper-structure derived from “bad” source books that attempt to qualify Oglala religion into simplified charts. This piece explores the relationship between the body and the entanglement between lies\, fiction\, oral history\, mythology\, ethnography\, and Oglala religion. \n“Some Numbers” is a lecture/performance that asks the question “WHY?” “Why are there so few Indigenous working artists? Why are there so few Indigenous art school graduates?” \nThis event is part of the Decolonize LA series\, and was made possible in part by a grant from the City of Los Angeles\, Department of Cultural Affairs.

SUMMARY:DecolonizeLA: Un-casting colonization from our dreams\, casting spells\, igniting our decolonized collective dreams through dance and plants w/ Charmaine Bee + Joy
DESCRIPTION:Join us to co-create change collectively as well as release restrictive & oppressive structures that limit expansion. Together let’s un-cast the nightmares of colonization! \nThis workshop/performance will consist of movement that co-creates ritual space\, use of herbs to support collective spell casting/ un-casting and to invoke and activate individual and collective dreams. Together we will interrogate how we can use our dream world as a space to activate our intentions. \nWe come to this work acknowledging the history\, psychological\, economic\, physiological impact of colonization on people Indigenous to the Americas as well as people of African heritage and the impact on our sacred practices of spell casting and un-casting. This work addresses “decolonizing” as a recognition and grounding in community to connect to the ever – evolving work (of our ancestors). Some of this work includes practices that have been passed on such as working with intention to manifest our desires. We are engaging in this work in order to assess/ release the oppressive structures that impact our growth and expansion from the micro to the macro level in the everyday. \nWe will bring our experience in herbalism/ plant medicine\, dream interpretation\, and healing movement work into the space to support the work of spell/un-casting. Be ready to move\, walk through the city\, dream & dance. Bring a lunch\, water\, and your intentions to decolonize L.A \nThis event is part of the Decolonize LA series\, and was made possible in part by a grant from the City of Los Angeles\, Department of Cultural Affairs.

DESCRIPTION:From Habeus Corpus to prison art practice\, Liberated Lifers will lead a discussion about our experiences within California’s State Prisons. \nTuesday May 10th\nFellowship & Food: 6pm\nPresentation&Discussion: 7-9pm\nHRLA: 410 Cottage Home St\, LA 90012\nPart of the DecolonizeLA Art Exhibition: May 1-11 \nThe Liberated Arts Collective is a collaboration between formerly incarcerated people serving term-to-life sentences\, teaching artists and writers. We are invested in art as a tool for personal and community liberation\, cultural expression and social change. Formerly incarcerated people come to the collective with a range of art experience and interests; some began our art practice years before being incarcerated\, some started making art in prison\, while others haven’t called our work “art” until now. While incarcerated\, many of us used art as a tool to make money\, remain sane in solitary confinement or steer away from prison politics. Now on the outside\, we use art to recognize our power and potential\, engage in leadership\, build notoriety\, express our concerns and our solutions\, and exhibit our progress and our evolution. Through art\, we gain a platform for our collective voices\, speak to younger generations\, address the “crisis on the streets” and educate the public about our experiences in California State Prisons and the probation system. \nThe Liberated Arts Collective grew out of and is a project of the Youth Justice Coalition’s “Welcome Home LA\,” a re-entry project and support system built by formerly incarcerated people in order to bring others home. Welcome Home was a direct response to the lack of community-input in L.A. County’s and the state’s Reentry plans. The collective is owned and operated by liberated lifers and other formerly incarcerated people and serves as democratic space for the uplifting of the collective’s members\, their wisdom and vision. This event is part of HRAL’s DecolonizeLA series\, and was made possible in part by a grant from the City of Los Angeles\, Department of Cultural Affairs. \nFor more info or to participate\, contact us:\nLiberatedArtsCollective@gmail.com\n(213) 536-1911 \n \n

SUMMARY:DecolonizeLA - DivineBrick
DESCRIPTION:DivineBrick (josie j) makes research-based existentially iconoclastic artwork. A lifetime of re-configuring views\, beliefs\, self-structure and modeling a research-oriented existence that explores belief and where it stems from\, this is where it has lead. \nBass pushing air\, creaking\, cracking a wooden device called the Basso\, to set the bio and molecular rhythm of the space. A device\, part bazooka subwoofer speaker\, part drum\, and part bellowing feedback loop. Supplier of urban noise this wooden sub-woofer will be the splintered connection to indigenous past. A exploration in movement called Corporeal Reformation will occupy the rest of this space. Inner woven reaction to time\, space voice and body\, will be aided by the pulse of the sub\, riding on witnesses inside a WhiteBox as landscape with their collective voices to activate our collective memory. \nTrying to reclaim some sort of indigenous or forgotten belief or behavior is close to impossible when these things have been destroyed or co-opted. Where does one turn if their past does not exist to borrow from it? Sometimes the things that the colonizer has stereotyped as “indigenous” become the only symbols on which to connect to\, either in act of dissent or in hopes of connection. This will further convolute this already broken system. This semiotics is also the way the colonizers themselves find ways of connecting to more holistic ways of existing. Unearthing resources and the destruction of land not only uproots the indigenous people but also further removes the colonizer from forgotten memories of coexisting\, not occupation of this land and its inhabitants (this includes plants and animals). \nTo add a bit more texture and dimensionality to this night I welcome Mike Meanstreetz (drums) and Z. Vidal (loop effects). Please come bath in this wave of sound\, be our landscape that we have forgotten. Share in the collective vocalization. I hope to remember something I forgotten many lives over. \n  \nThis event is part of the DecolonizeLA series\, and was made possible in part by a grant from the City of Los Angeles\, Department of Cultural Affairs.

SUMMARY:DAD DAD DAD
DESCRIPTION:DAD DAD DAD is a three-channel collaborative video installation by Maura Brewer and Paul Pescador that takes Stanley Kubrick’s 1980 film The Shining as a site of analysis. The first channel is a short\, essayistic video that examines the relationship between the characters in The Shining and the Steadicam technology used to film their actions. In 1980\, the Steadicam was a new technology that combined the stability of the tripod with the freedom of movement of hand-held film. In The Shining\, Kubrick deploys the Steadicam both to track the action unfolding onscreen and as a point of view device\, elevating the characters outside the confines of their physical bodies. The second channel is a narrative interpretation of The Shining\, in which puppets made out newspaper and Styrofoam move through interiors\, each mimicking a series domestic activities (cooking\, masturbating and watching television.) Shifting between handheld camera and found footage\, an underlying tone of violence and perversity builds. The final channel is an overlay of the previous two\, which heightens the relationship between animate and inanimate actors. The mechanism of the moving camera becomes a character\, functioning like a ventriloquist who both observes and enables the narrative action. Power dynamics between camera operator and subject become a metaphor for the relationship between father and child. \nThis film will screen for one day only on Father’s Day.

SUMMARY:Southland Ensemble presents: Soundings
DESCRIPTION:Southland Ensemble presents a concert of music from the early issues of Soundings Press\, an important and influential journal of experimental music published by composer Peter Garland from 1971- 1990. Program will feature compositions by: \nJOHANNA MAGDALENA BEYER\nJOHN DINWIDDIE\nJAMES FULKERSON\nSTEPHEN L. MOSKO\nJAMES TENNEY \nCopies of many of the early issues of Soundings will be available for perusal after the concert. \nSoundings came to be in November 1970 in a workshop taught by Dick Higgins. From the start it was seen as encompassing more than just “local talent”\, and so contributions were solicited from many composers living in California. … (It) arose from a feeling that the work of musicians needed a much wider circulation than that afforded by current publications. \n“… old music can be just as inspiring as the traditional image of the Western composer\, forever pushing forward into explored territory. Both deserve equal attention in a magazine such as this.” \n– Peter Garland \nphoto: Eron Rauch\n \n  \n  \nSouthland Ensemble is: \nEric KM Clark & Christine Tavolacci\, directors\nCasey Anderson – Jennifer Bewerse – Orin Hildestad – James Klopfleisch\nJonathan Stehney – Cassia Streb \n  \n

SUMMARY:The Stars Down to Earth
DESCRIPTION:Screening\, with a short introduction and Q&A with Tashi Condelee\, Afia Fields\, Margaret Haines & others. \nThe text\, Sex Without Threat (within the upcoming Wrong Issue of Nonsensical)\, and the film\, The Stars Down To Earth\, consider the experience of attending astrology classes for five years under The Carroll Righter Astrology Foundation (home to Nancy and Ronald Reagan’s astrologer) while simultaneously keeping in mind philosopher and musicologist Theodor W. Adorno’s read of astrology (and astrologer Carroll Righter) as nothing close to an innocent past-time\, but instead—in line with ‘pseudo-rationality’ and ‘authoritarian irrationality’—fascism. \nThe film responds to this 1952/53 text\, The Stars Down to Earth\, and acts as its somatic secretary\, as Adorno—in his purposeful\, justified and pragmatic critique (myopia as tactic to scorn)—did not conduct evident field research.  \nShot in early 2015\, the 23 minute film acts as part sci-fi thriller\, part documentary\, part idealist anti-secrecy forecast.  \nAstrologers from the Carroll Righter Astrological Foundation divine events for 2015 and 2016—including\, reading the star charts for America\, Paris\, Russia\, Snowden and Chelsea Manning. Coupled with their predictions\, is the reincarnation of mythological prophetess Kassandra (Henry Hopper) and god Apollo (Afia Fields) in 2015 Los Angeles and Athens­. Kassandra’s divinations and access to past/present/future information see her momentarily and perhaps mistakenly identify with the ‘whistle-blowers’ the astrologers chart in their predictions for coming events\, as both live in multi-temporality (extreme knowing). And\, both are threatened with not only imprisonment\, physical harm or rape\, but worse: forget. This passing flash of identification sparks for Kassandra a kind of hysteric anarchy\, where she attempts to fool fate and create a dimensional transparency and chaos in defiance of Apollo and those around her (the world). \nResearch and notes for the film are included in the text\, Sex Without Threat\, which takes the internet as divination system\, and pairs the context of post-war Los Angeles (when Adorno is writing) with 2016 Los Angeles and Athens. This text also contains a short interview with artist\, trans-activist and filmmaker Paola Revenioti (who acts in the film as a pythia of Apollo)\, as Paola returns from Lesbos\, Greece where she is making two films and volunteering aid\, as the EU\, in part\, ignores its status and duties as signatories of the 1951 Refugee Convention—in this way\, Sex Without Threat also attempts to make the comparison between 2016 EU and the fascism/pseudo-rationalism Adorno relentlessly and carefully seeths and pin-points in 1952 California. \nCast and Crew:\nStarring Afia Fields & Henry Hopper\, Tashi Condelee\, Cynthia MacAdams\, Jack Taub\, Paola Revenioti\, John Sweet\, Veronica Monae\, Silvia Romero\, Doug Lee\, James Raymond.\nDirection: Margaret Haines\nCinematography: Dan O’Sullivan\nProduction Manager: Teague Schneiter\nOriginal Sound Score: Patrick Dyer\nAssistant Director: Giulia Caruso

SUMMARY:Tita Salina & Irwan Ahmett: Ring of Fire/Pacific Rim (Screening and Q&A)
DESCRIPTION:Screening of short video pieces by Irwan Ahmett and Tita Salina\, Jakarta-based artists who have been working together since 2010. Their tactical\, interventionist approach to social issues frequently plays itself out in public space\, and translate into spontaneously unfolding events through a spontaneous and self-organized approach that they describe as Urban Play. In the last few years\, they have been working with vulnerable groups in society\, including Indonesian undocumented workers and migrant laborers living in the Netherlands and Taiwan. Their ambition is to reflect the real situations and what has been happening\, but also to generate critical alternatives to these complicated issues through play. \nA brief conversation with the artists will follow the screening. \nAhmett and Salina recently completed a month-long residency at the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston\, in the context of the Megacities Asia exhibition. Their work has also been exhibited at the ST Paul St Gallery (Auckland NZ\, 2016)\, Biennale Jogja (Yogyakarta ID\, 2015)\, Asian Art Biennial (Tainan TW\, 2015)\, the Stedelijk Museum (Amsterdam NL\, 2014)\, and the ZK/U Center for Art and Urbanistics (Berlin DE\, 2013).

SUMMARY:With(n)essing in Motion Workshop
DESCRIPTION:With(n)essing in Motion Workshop\nInstructors:\nKandis Williams\nJosh Johnson \nVisual artist Kandis Williams and dancer Josh Johnson (Forsythe company\, Sad for No Reason) will guide a group of participants through screenings and movement exercises that will excavate the space between affective moving bodies and documentation. Dance pieces will be constructed around the device as it witnesses and proofs bodies within our collective mind. This workshop will ask participants to engage in exercises and conversations around the camera phone as an extension of the eye and internalizer of the voice. The eye\, the body and the document of bodies in space created by our ability to witness our surroundings with this technological extension of the eye will be investigated through movement exercises. In dialogue\, we will examine specifically civic and journalistic images of violence. The recent rash of police shootings post Ferguson will be treated as a starting point to look back on these documents and the way they shape the interactions of a multitude of partial subjects\, in the hopes that dissecting these videos as strange choreographies will explore how the tensions in the bodies of victim\, perpetrator\, and witness are framed\, aligned and circulated within the distended Cartesian mind of web2.0.  \nPlease bring:\nA camera phone w/ internet access and at least 2GB of space\nMovement clothes \nWe ask a $30 suggested donation\, please come even if you don’t have it!\nReaders of the material viewed will be provided to all participants.

SUMMARY:TROPHY
DESCRIPTION:TROPHY is a dance/music/media performance of fragments\, stop-n-go selfies\, and broken encounters. In a hyperbolic world of live music and immersive video art\, TROPHY follows the pursuits of three dancers who face a gnawing pressure to exhibit success and the impact of media authority over them.  It asks\,  how does the labor of performing\, posing\, and posting about life – while it is presumably happening – affect the experience of simply being in the world?   \nChoreography: Kevin Williamson\nIn collaboration with performers: Barry Brannum\, Jasmine Jawato\, Kevin Le\nScore: Jeepneys (Anna Luisa Petrisko)\nVideo Art: Cari Ann Shim Sham*\nLighting Design: Katelan Braymer \nThu Aug 25 – 8pm\nFri Aug 26 – 8pm & (10pm pay-what-you-can)\nSat Aug 27 – 8pm\nSun Aug 28 – 7pm \n*Special event:\nSat Aug 27th (following the show): community dance jam with live dj set by Jeepneys and video art by Cari Ann Shim Sham*.  This event is free and open to the public.  Starts at 9pm!  \nFor more info or to purchase tickets: www.kevinwilliamsontrophy.eventbrite.com

SUMMARY:Marisa J. Futernick “13 Presidents” Book launch and artist’s talk\, in conversation with Steve Kado
DESCRIPTION:In 2014\, Marisa J. Futernick drove nearly ten thousand miles across America\, visiting all thirteen of the country’s Presidential libraries along the way. 13 Presidents is the result: an artist’s book that combines photographs from the journey with a suite of short stories. Mixing fact and fiction\, each President from Herbert Hoover to George W. Bush is a protagonist in this collection of unexpected portraits. \nThe photographs\, shot on analogue film\, depict the everyday details of the towns that these men are from\, including the homes where they were born\, and their final resting places. 13 Presidents weaves together personal narrative with wider cultural observation\, forming a vision of America that is both invented and true. \nMarisa J. Futernick is an artist and writer based in London. She was born in Detroit\, Michigan and raised in Hartford\, Connecticut. Futernick has published several books\, including How I Taught Umberto Eco to Love the Bomb (RA Editions and California Fever Press\, 2015) and The Watergate Complex (Rice + Toye\, 2015). She has exhibited widely\, at venues including the Whitechapel Gallery\, London; Royal Academy of Arts\, London; Jerwood Space\, London; Arnolfini\, Bristol\, England; and Yale University. \nSteve Kado is an artist\, writer and musician from North York. Works and performances of his have been seen at places like The Wattis\, 8-11\, Tate Britain\, YEARS and REDCAT. He co-hosts the Talking Show on KCHUNG radio with Nicolas Miller and is the Editor-at-large for Prism of Reality. Other writing of his has appeared in Artforum\, Flash Art and a piece about his visit to the Nixon Library was recently published in Night Papers. He is in the band LEAD. \n13 Presidents is published by Slimvolume in September 2016.
