SUMMARY:Sebastian Hernandez - REVERB
DESCRIPTION:Reverb is a quartet movement based performance that thinks through ideas of queerness\, kin\, sorrow and the body. This performance asks the performers to question their commitment to performance\, movement\, and art making. How do we give and conserve energy. How do we survive in times of duress? How do we breathe amidst legislative violence? How do we find freedom in todays violently oppressive capitalist structures that seek to consume and dispose our bodies? \n\n\n\nSebastian invited queer black and brown movers they have met and danced with in queer Los Angeles night life. This politically direct invitation is no coincidence as this queer commons aids Sebastians work. This commons allows for the organic nature and mutual understandings of Sebastians artistic ideas and shared life experiences as minoritarian subject in todays increasing anti LGBT+ America. This mode of working is a central part of Sebastian’s practice as they not only source from the club but simultaneously contribute to queer club culture in LA through their monthly party\, YOU Los Angeles. \n\n\n\nDirected by Sebastian HernandezPerformed by Sebastian Hernandez\, Kearian\, Augustine\, Summer Breeze HoskinsMusic Score and Mixing by Sebastian Hernandez \n\n\n\nPresale tickets are available here\, and at the door- No one will be turned away

SUMMARY:Macula Dog • Bromp Treb • Mas Guerrero
DESCRIPTION:On Saturday June 10th MACULA DOG – the enigmatic\, electronic\, off-kilter\, self-contained band and performance unit from New York City – bring themselves and their holographs to Human Recources Los Angeles via UPEND. \n\n\n\nPlus\, the blurp and pivot of BROMP TREB\, a single human – Neil ‘Cloaca’ Young – who teases a tangle of crisscrossed gear and microphoning in a revue of body comedy and little ‘lectronic frenzies. \n\n\n\nAnd Angelino audio pilot MAS GUERRERO\, herself a node of high quality alt-reality squonk and digi-pastiche that hits ears in both abstractronic and song forms. \n\n\n\nAdvance tickets available here. \n\n\n\n++ \n\n\n\nMacula Dog is a New York City-based band\, a fully weird and wireless electronic audio-video duo that divvies out a flurry of wild and fun songs that’ve apparently jumped out of the same variable pitch blender as Devo and the Residents (and for headier heads Melted Men and Zoogz Rift!) \n\n\n\nIn support of a new LP\, Orange 2 on Wharf Cat Records\, they hit the west coast with their futurist-absurdist antics and a full costumery upgrade for the first time in six years. This gig will gig showcase the band’s new live configuration\, in which “…they carry their gear on harnesses\, adorning themselves with impact-resistant clothing to cushion from injury should their exoskeletal sit-stand legs slip out from under them. The duo also carry a camera and hologram projection system\, transforming each member into a fully mobile performance rig\, each with a mini jumbotron.“ \n\n\n\nhttps://maculadog.bandcamp.com/

SUMMARY:Aki Onda: Spirits Known and Unknown
DESCRIPTION:Photo by Aki Onda\n\n\n\nAki Onda “Spirits Known and Unknown” featuring Eyvind Kang \n\n\n\n“Spirits Known and Unknown” is a performance featuring various kinds of brass bells. It examines the materiality and spirituality of these objects and explores the uncanny and unknown. \n\n\n\nBells are a mysterious instrument. It is said that they were born when primitive people banged on resonant surfaces to frighten away evil. They have been used to call spirits in different cultures. They appear in church towers\, symbols of peace\, but have also been melted down and turned into bullets. \n\n\n\nOnda remarks “Playing bells can be eerie at times. I get the sensation that ringing them connects me to their former owners who may have rung them. The actions recall lost sounds and sense histories that would otherwise be erased. It’s like collaborating with forces such as spirits and ancestors which transcends the sense of time and space experienced through multi-sensory channels.” \n\n\n\nFor this special occasion\, Onda invited LA-based composer and multi-instrumentalist Eyvind Kang as a co-performer. \n\n\n\nPhoto by Lukasz Gawronski\n\n\n\nAki Onda is an artist\, composer\, and curator currently based in Mito\, Japan\, after living in New York for two decades. His works are often catalyzed by and structured around memories—personal\, collective\, historical—such as his widely-known project\, Cassette Memories (2004–ongoing)\, drawn from three decades of field recordings. Crossing genres\, he has been active internationally in art\, film\, music and performance. His artistic collaborators include Michael Snow\, Ken Jacobs\, Raha Raissnia\, Paul Clipson\, Loren Connors\, Alan Licht\, David Toop and Akio Suzuki. Onda has presented his work at The Kitchen\, MoMA\, MoMA P.S.1\, New Museum\, Blank Forms\, ICA Philadelphia\, REDCAT\, Time-Based Art Festival\, documenta 14\, Louvre Museum\, Pompidou Center\, Palais de Tokyo\, Fondation Cartier\, Argos\, Bozar\, ICA London\, International Film Festival Rotterdam\, Nam June Paik Art Center and many others. \n\n\n\nEyvind Kang—a multi-instrumentalist\, composer and arranger—works across genre and discipline\, bringing subtlety\, fluidity\, and emotional intensity to each of his varied projects. Wary of the divisions of music by nation\, Kang makes “people music” influenced by geology\, collective memory and sonic possibility. \n\n\n\nEverything in AirHuman Resources LA presents Everything in Air\, a series of public programs over the course of a year—new commissions\, exhibitions\, performances\, and forums\, often in hybrid combinations—using key concepts within artist and composer Maryanne Amacher’s work as points of departure.

SUMMARY:Prima Sakuntabhai & Olivia Leiter
DESCRIPTION:This weeks Wednesday Night Summer Screening Series features short videos Olivia Leiter and Prima Sakuntabhai. \n\n\n\nOlivia LeiterDrawing from archival materials and phone interviews\, Amalgamated explores cooperation\, unions\, the 60s and 70s New York City tenant movement\, compromises\, financial issues and ideas around community and belonging. Special thanks to Ed Yaker\, David Wayne\, The Bronx Historical Society\, The Kneel Center for Labor-Management Documentation and Archives and The Tamiment Library and Robert F. Wagner Labor Archives. Amalgamated\, 202320 MinutesPrima Sakuntabhai Looking back at the work I made when I first moved to LA in 2017\, Site Specificity III is a reflection on how absence and disappearance render a site specific because it is no longer accessible. I turned my bedroom in Boyle Heights into a performance space for twenty audience members for an evening. The window covered in vellum becomes a projection screen\, revealing the projected image as the sun sets. The three-channel documentation shows the performance from three perspectives: the point of view of the performer\, the projection screen and through an X-ray filter. Ranging from fragmented childhood memories\, a city built by a heartbroken Roman emperor to proliferation of passenger planes\, the narratives and imagery in the work still resonate with my current work on memory in connection to place and blending of fact and fiction.Fast forward to the present\, Etretat is a short clip I put together from my return visit to France the summer of 2022. I had asked my parents to take me to Etretat\, a village on the Normandy coast\, known for its white chalk cliffs and remnants of World War II. When my dad was 16\, he visited his grand-uncle\, Pridi Banomyong\, the Thai revolutionary in exile in France\, who took him on a trip there. \n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nSite Specificity III\, 2018 \n\n\n\nThree-channel video documentation of performance \n\n\n\n19:55 minutes \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEtretat\, 20233 minutes

SUMMARY:Greetings Friends
DESCRIPTION:Greetings Friends is a full-length essay film made by Pau Pescador\, titled after a Disney Studio produced film. In 1941\, the United States government created the Office of Inter-American Affairs out of concern for the potential Nazi infiltration in Latin America. They hired Walt Disney to produce animated cartoons\, most of which focused upon Latin America as subject\, some of theses videos took on health issues\, such as malaria\, water treatment and tuberculosis as well as produced animated characters as visual representations for these countries. In Pescador’s 2017 essay film\, she reconsiders these cartoons and their relationship between cultural diplomacy and colonialism. She examines some of the regions that Walt Disney visited\, and attempts to understand how Disney iconography is still being culturally appropriated today. \n\n\n\nGreeting Friends is presented as part of the Summer Screening Series\, which runs every Wednesday at 9:00PM from May 3rd-August 31st.

SUMMARY:Antoni Hervás - the awakening
DESCRIPTION:May 12 – June 4\, 2023 –– Wednesday through Sunday\, 12 – 6pm \n\n\n\nOpening: May 12\, 6 – 10pm \n\n\n\nCuero Amanecer: a celebration of queer clubs\, sexy dancing\, leather and fun! \n\n\n\nMay 18\, 9pm till L8 \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nthe awakening is a project by Barcelona-based artist Antoni Hervás\, curated by Clara López Menéndez. The exhibition will be accompanied by a 3 month long residency at the Tom of Finland Foundation (April-June). The show has been realized with the inestimable help and advice of Valeria Tizol Vivas. \n\n\n\nthe awakening departs from Hervás’ initiative to come to Los Angeles in Spring 2022 to research the beginnings of what is called “leather culture.” Interested in the murky origins of these aesthetics and performative codes of queer/gay life\, Hervás wanted to look into the origins of this community in Southern California. Especially how the drawings and life of Tom of Finland intersected in the dissemination of this aesthetic worldwide. Hervás looked into the places where Finland found his earliest inspiration and how\, through Finland’s fantasy\, this nowadays widely expanded gender identity and set of practices came to be. Hervás is particularly curious about how the specific forms of this subculture emerged\, becoming recognizable codes for those who knew how to see them\, while hiding in plain sight by taking from widely spread popular culture tropes––the cowboy\, the motorcycle gang\, the various men in uniform––and utilizing an exalted form of high masculinity as drag and cover. \n\n\n\nIn addition Hervás also dove into Los Angeles’s contemporary underground queer culture\, interested in putting together the less recorded inspirational wells of this history: the laidback working class clandestine gay clubs were men of all social and racialized backgrounds meet to find each other on the dancefloor and forget the rigid social strictures that demand heteronormative performances of them––at their jobs\, in the street\, with their families. These spaces represent for Hervás the heterogenous fertile grounds that inspired artists like Tom of Finland\, who then crystalized in their drawings a more whitewashed vision of these opaque origins. For Hervás\, this whitewashing obscures how in the club lines get blurred and difference dances in joy instead of splitting apart.  \n\n\n\nThe club is a fundamental space for gay life and culture\, one that is currently endangered by real estate speculation and the changes in habits catalyzed by the use of cruising apps. The show’s work is therefore partially a celebration of gay clubs and bars as a needed refuge and crucial space for queer becomings.   \n\n\n\nIn conjunction with the exhibition at HRLA\, an installation of drawings and materials from the Tom of Finland Archive will take place offsite at the Tom of Finland Foundation. These pieces have been selected by Hervás for being inspirational sources and key findings during his archival research for the project in 2022. This installation will run until the end of June (exact date TBD). \n\n\n\nWith the support of the PICE AC/E Mobility Grants and the California Institute of the Arts.  \n\n\n\nThank you Adam Otto Lutz\, Amy Chao\, Christine Yerie Lee\, Wes Larios for their help in making this fantasy happen!

SUMMARY:lily\, rose
DESCRIPTION:lily\, rose is an installation and performance at Human Resources Los Angeles that brings to life the world of Kelly Link’s short story through live music and theatrics by M.A. Harms\, navigating the woeful and complex reflections of our anti-hero\, the story’s main character\, as he reflects on his life post-mortem. This project explores periods of sorrow\, disgust\, humor\, and anger through the realization of musical performance\, video found footage\, white out illustrations\, stop motion animation\, and mannequin instruments. \n\n\n\ncarnation\, lily\, lily\, rose is a two-part project presented by LA-based artist M.A. Harms including an interactive installation at Coaxial Arts March 24–26 (carnation\, lily) followed by an installation and performance at Human Resources Los Angeles on April 28 (lily\, rose). This work is co-presented by Boss Witch Productions\, Coaxial Arts\, and Human Resources Los Angeles\, and is developed with support from a 2022–23 Boss Witch Productions Commission. \n\n\n\nAbout the Artist: M.A. Harms is a Los Angeles-based composer\, performer\, and instrument builder who explores the intersections between grief\, gender\, and sex through a combination of text and sound. Their practice centers performance art and interdisciplinarity\, imagining and creating sound using sculptural installations\, found objects\, electronics\, mannequins\, and placing equal significance on the visual experience of their work. M navigates literal stories and personal life events via sound practice\, obscuring them to the point that they begin to bridge the gap between individual and “universal” experiences. As a percussionist and interdisciplinary performance artist\, M has worked with artists including Eric Lennartson\, Daniel Newman-Lessler\, and Jeonghyeon Joo. They received their MFA from California Institute of the Arts\, where they studied with Tim Feeney and Nicholas Deyoe. \n\n\n\nYou can read more about M.A. Harms and Boss Witch Productions here\, and visit this link to check out M’s interview with writer siri gurudev about their practice and upcoming work.

SUMMARY:Blood is here: Carmina Escobar\, Roco Córdova\, & Dorian Wood
DESCRIPTION:Blood is here is a collaborative manifestation between vocalists/multidisciplinary artists Carmina Escobar\, Roco Córdova and Dorian Wood. It is an idea born from a recent collective performance within Wood’s touring 12-hour composition/installation Canto de Todes\, in which the three artists considered the contexts of space\, public proximity and ancestral energy to construct a web-like spatial environment consisting of their interacting voices. Each artist brings their respective trajectory to this intention\, replete with mindfulness and an urgency to continue addressing hidden narratives around body autonomy and claiming/reclaiming space. As an evening length performance\, Blood is here investigates the fluid histories through ritualistic practices and material experimentation\, centering on the broad possibilities of vocalization. The artists will transform the space\, intermittently inviting the public to witness and\, by presence alone\, assist in mutating the process\, utilizing concepts of voice as both unifiers and isolators. During this performance\, the artists will ask: Are we vessels for something finite\, or conduits for a broader\, more complex purpose? Blood is here is a plea for an alternative to documentation and archiving that relies on human presence\, mindfulness\, focus\, perspective and legend to assist in the longevity of our existences.

SUMMARY:Fuerza del desierto. The Sierra Hermosa Community Museum and Reading Club
DESCRIPTION:Gallery Hours: Thursday-Sunday\, 12:00-6pm \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nAn exhibition focusing on the The Sierra Hermosa Community Museum and Reading Club curated by Natalia de la Rosa. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Sierra Hermosa Community Museum and Reading Club (Zacatecas\, Mexico) was founded in 2000 by Juan Manuel de la Rosa in his hometown. Initiated as a small library\, this project quickly grew to feature textile workshops and a growing collection of artworks. Its collection is shared through a unique system: artworks are not warehoused but are exhibited in rotation within Sierra Hermosa (in a school library\, shops\, and in people’s homes). \n\n\n\nNatalia de la Rosa’s exhibition introduces the concept and the practice of this expanded museum and places it in the context of the extreme violence\, extractive politics\, and migratory crises which shape life in Zacatecas\, situated in the Tropic of Cancer in the North of Mexico. \n\n\n\nThis exhibition features work by the museum’s artist founder\, local painters Luis Lara and Francisco Lara\, textile artists Yuri Ríos and Gabriela Gamez\, and artists who participated in a residency within this experimental and rural museum (2017-2020). The latter artists include Wendy Cabrera Rubio\, John Birtle\, Cristóbal Gracia\, Josué Mejía\, Irak Morales\, and Israel Urmeer. This exhibition redefines concepts such as the border\, mobility\, and cultural contact as we encounter them within artistic\, museological\, and pedagogical contexts. The result is a reflection on Sierra Hermosa’s landscape\, its history and its own memory practices.

SUMMARY:Page Person - THE EAR* (*or how I became a person)
DESCRIPTION:THE EAR* (*or how I became a person) is a performance by interdisciplinary artist Page Person Sunday\, March 19 at 5:00 pm. At a time when the very existence of trans people is under attack\, the artist describes how claiming space for their own existence healed a lifetime of being the subject of discrimination\, bullying and the treat of physical assault. Who owns the narrative of our lives? If a hurtful narrative is placed upon us\, how can we assert ourselves and change that narrative? Person physically manifests as The Ear\, an oversized organ for hearing\, and invites the audience to hurl fragmented sounds and syllables of various homophobic and transphobic slurs; enacting the harm that it caused them as an individual to absorb these sounds. The Ear becomes twisted\, bound and deformed from the abuses enacted upon it. Various ritualized re-enactments of performances from their early drag career then give voice and agency to the artist and incrementally heal The Ear; which by the end of the work is returned to a whole and complete state. Owning the narrative of their gender has been the single healthiest choice the artist has made in a career that spans three decades; here they speak directly about their experiences and ask who has the right to deny us the power of creating our own life stories to live as complete people.

SUMMARY:Adrian Abela: Nebula and Gentes
DESCRIPTION:Nebula and Gentes were initially made for an extensive installation called CHARTI and exhibited in 2016. Nebula was also shown as part of the Malta Pavilion at the Venice Biennale 2017. The videos were recorded on Malta and Gozo over three summers starting in 2014. The work revolved around the rituals that the inhabitants of the islands would perform as part of catholic festivals that celebrate the saint of the town or village. Nebula is compromised of footage of fireworks which would normally indicate the initiation of the rituals and their closure. It was filmed with the intention of accessing an essence rather than an aesthetic of an identity. Gentes\, on the other hand\, records other aspects of these rituals and the people that perform them.

SUMMARY:Gemma Castro: Monuments
DESCRIPTION:Opening Saturday\, 21st 7-10pm \n\n\n\nExhibition is open Friday-Sunday\, January 21-31st\, 12-5pm \n\n\n\nClosing Performance: Gemma Castro + Olivia HP: Sunday January 29\, 6PM \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGemma Castro: Monuments\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nMonuments is a video installation exploring the process of rebuilding and restoration following heartbreak and loss. It reflects on how building physical and mental strength is a process of repetition with variation. A porous structure made from cinder blocks frames the video composed of everyday moments of work and rest. The music composed by the artist is stripped of any voices\, instead\, revealing the instrumental harmony and the friction of the different sounds. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nGemma Castro\, b. 1996 is a composer\, audio engineer\, and artist creating at the intersection of sound and architecture. Gemma has self released albums\, composed for public television\, and is an engineer at Stones Throw Records.  \n\n\n\nEverything in Air is a series of public programs over the course of a year—new commissions\, exhibitions\, performances\, and forums\, often in hybrid combinations—using key concepts within artist and composer Maryanne Amacher’s work as points of departure. The series was supported by a Mike Kelley Foundation Grant.
