DESCRIPTION:Art\, Time\, and Rebellion in Ancient Americas is the second installment of HRLA Studies\, a series of free study sessions intended for skill sharing\, thought provocation\, collective learning and expansion of the commons. Two sessions are being offered this Spring. The sessions are free and open to everyone. No RSVP necessary. They take place in parallel to other HRLA programs at HRLA and around the area.HRLA Studies is a proposition instigated by clara lópez menéndez.

Organized into three thematic sections—object and time\, space and sound\, celebration and rebellion—it enables participants to engage with diverse artistic forms and worldviews\, highlighting how these expressions can also serve as a form of cultural resistance. \n\n\n\nReading for the first session: “‘Metaphysical Subtleties and Theological Niceties’: Incarnation\, Incantations\, Animism\, and the Powers of Pre-Columbian Visual Imagery\,” by Thomas B.F. Cummins.  \n\n\n\nAlan Poma is a Peruvian multidisciplinary artist who has developed the concept and practice of Andean Futurism. In his work\, Poma investigates the characteristics of ancient American inhabitants\, discovering resonances with the present.

SUMMARY:BAE BAE: SOUL RECOVERY
DESCRIPTION:BAE BAE (Kumi James) presents SOUL RECOVERY\, a live electronic music and sound performance that investigates how sonic resonance helps to create and strengthen bonds between people and spaces\, allowing us to regain access to our souls in a world that seeks to keep spiritual knowledge at bay. \n\n\n\nThe soundscape will be produced within the walls of Human Resources\, and will function as a spiritual response to the materiality of the gallery space itself. The invitation to guests is to engage in a process of soul recovery through attunement to the sound generated in the space. \n\n\n\nTickets are $10 and available via Withfriends. No one turned away from lack of funds\, but space is limited. \n\n\n\nSpecial thanks to Jacqueline Kiyomi Gork for providing the sound system.

SUMMARY:Sculptors Painting
DESCRIPTION:Organized by Cara Chan \n\n\n\nOpening reception: Friday\, May 17\, 6 – 9pmGallery hours: Saturday\, May 18 through Thursday\, May 23\, 12 – 6pmPainting event: Sunday\, May 19\, 2 – 5pm \n\n\n\nWe often think of art in categories: new media\, performance\,  painting\, sculpture. These can become limiting identities for artists\, who must constantly challenge and renew their creativity. Sculptors Painting features 31 LA sculptors who were challenged to drop their Festools and take up the brush and palette. The artists were given complete freedom with one restriction: no 3D elements; ONLY oil or acrylic on canvas/linen/panel.  The goal was to explore a foreign medium and inspire experimentation outside of the artists’ comfort zones. The works on view should therefore be read as paintings by artists accustomed to working in three dimensions. Different questions arise: How do ideas live in 2D versus 3D? How does embodied knowledge of mass and form translate onto canvas? Do style and identity transcend medium? Sculptors Painting is an exercise in play\, breaking from the familiar and encouraging lightness. \n\n\n\nZoe Koke will be teaching a painting lesson on Sunday\, May 19 from 2 – 5pm. Participants are asked to bring their choice surface: a primed canvas/panel/paper and paint: oil paint\, acrylic paint\, or watercolor.  Limited canvas paper and materials will be available. The topic will be painting as a gesture to heal the body. \n\n\n\nParticipants:  \n\n\n\nAdrian mm AbelaBrenda BarriosDaniel Klass BeckwithCara ChanAllen Hung-Lun ChenMax ClearyGabriel CohenIvana Dama Ryan FloresLili Abdel-GhanyJulia GarderSylvia HardyNevada HardmanLouis HeilbronnMerideth HillbrandShana HoehnAlex KerrJordan Kolesnik ZZ KrebsAaron MeyersHallie McNeillGozie OjiniAryana PolatCarlos Vela-Prado Jackie RinesHope StutzmanKaren TepazDaniel Alejandro TrejoValeria Tizol Vivas Chris WarrChristopher Wawrinofsky Amia Yokoyama

SUMMARY:labor & collective action as resistance
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a teach-in on May 25th hosted at Human Resources! \n\n\n\nlabor & collective action as resistance will explore how collective action can be applied to the spaces we inhabit. In awe of hundreds of organizing students and faculty across the US and beyond\, we come together to share cooperative strategies as both lineage and fuel to the momentum of mass mobilizing. A series of invited speakers will discuss their work and experiences as organizers and union workers from the tech industry to the university to the museum. They will share ways to activate our work for a liberated Palestine and continue to build our toolkit for ongoing resistance in our every day. How does this tradition of people organizing show us ways we can pose an existential threat to American empire and what new modes are being born? When tactics can be shared\, practiced\, and mobilized together – the people have power. RSVP here! \n\n\n\nSpeakersJackie Johnson is finishing her PhD in the Division of Cinema and Media Studies at USC. Over the past year and a half\, she has helped organize Graduate Student Workers including serving on the bargaining team for the union’s first contract. \n\n\n\nMeryem Kamil is an assistant professor of Film & Media Studies at UC Irvine. Her research is on Palestinian uses of technology. She has been a Palestine organizer since 2009\, working on divestment campaigns at UC San Diego\, University of Michigan\, and through the UC-wide coalition of Faculty for Justice in Palestine. \n\n\n\nGabi Schubiner is a founding worker-organizer with No Tech for Apartheid. They reside in Brooklyn and imagine a world where the conditions of Tech labor support global liberation. \n\n\n\nDana Kopel is a writer\, editor\, and union organizer currently pursuing a PhD in US history at UCLA\, where her research focuses on labor and leftist organizing during the later twentieth century. \n\n\n\nAmara Higuera is an artist and educator who began her teaching journey in the 74% Latinx LAUSD school district where 59% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch. She began developing an anti-oppressive pedagogy while there. She was recently published in the anthology Cultivating Critical Conversations in Art Education\, co-published with fellow educators who she started her organizing journey with. \n\n\n\nCo-organizers \n\n\n\nAmara Higuera &  Anna Cho-Son is an artist and writer and currently works as a community programs manager at a food hub located in South Central LA. She was previously the curator and editor at Active Cultures. She studied Fine Arts and Food Studies. \n\n\n\nPresented by \n\n\n\nuntune is an organism reliant on the contribution of interchanging parts —a social experiment in building support and natural resources with parameters continually reset to remain grounded in current issues relating to the correlation between culture\, ecology\, and food sovereignty—a creative entity for learning and supporting the teachings of Indigenous wisdom and ecological knowledge—within and outside a curatorial fieldwork.Additional Notes  We encourage participants to arrive at 11am for tea & coffee* and stay throughout the day. The program of speakers will be from 11:20am-2:15pm (15 minute midpoint break included).

SUMMARY:David Bad: all in\, win or lose
DESCRIPTION:Opening reception: Wednesday\, May 29th 6 – 9pm Gallery hours: Thursday\, May 30th through Monday\, June 3rd\, 12 – 6pm \n\n\n\nEver since I can remember I’ve been painting\, drawing\, sketching\, or coloring something. Being introduced to art at a very young age and having family members encouraging it\, is why I paint for more hours than I sleep. With art i feel as if i always need to have a sketch book around\, or pen and a napkin as I wait for the waiter to bring my food. A sort of Freedom of doing without thinking\, freedom from thinking; sort of. \n\n\n\nI do give all the credit to my mother and siblings for pushing me towards art or any creative outlet. My mother was a teacher’s assistant and would come home with fresh crayons and new books for me to draw in. We used to go to record stores and pick out CDs\, my mother was a classic rock and oldies lover. My older brother\, who was a graff writer\, had these books with amazing word style art pieces with characters in them. Some pages just scribble\, some very detailed similar graffiti pieces to the ones I’d see out on the streets. Thinking what great lengths and fun adventures these graffiti artists would go on to put up a “NAME”\, on a billboard or on risking it on some train tracks. My oldest sister use to sew her own clothes and Halloween costumes. She was also the best illustrator of all of us and taught me a lot about drawing. My sister Justine was heavy into music\, she was the one who got us to go out and buy CDs. She would collect her music off the radio by recording them on cassette tapes\, I actually got my taste in music from her. \n\n\n\nMy name is David Bad\, born and raised in Lincoln Heights\, Los Angeles\, California 90031\, five minutes from Chinatown. I’m a painter but have other various skills as well as photography\, sculpting\, and music production\, and more creative outlets i come across worth learning. This art show\, however\, is a painted series; it being my first show ever I’d like to show you my favorite thing in the whole world to do. This show is called “All In\, Win or Lose\,” which consist of 52 hand painted playing cards. The images painted represent Chicano culture\, Lucha Libre matches\, pin striped low riders\, Aztec ceremonies\, gold hoop earing with thin eyebrows\, elotes\, tamales\, tacos with tapatio\, the Zoot Zuiters\, white blank tee with greased up over sized 501s while sporting Corteze. The lifestyle I was raised in. \n\n\n\n– David Bad
