SUMMARY:Live from London: the Lubaina Himid exhibition at the Tate Modern
DESCRIPTION:Join Lisa Merrill\, PhD.\, Professor of Performance Studies\, Rhetoric and Public Advocacy Program\, Department of Writing Studies and Rhetoric at Hofstra University\, for a virtual conversation\, live from London\, discussing the Lubaina Himid exhibition\, which is on view at the Tate Modern from November 25\, 2021 to July 3\, 2022. Professor Merrill is a contributor to the exhibition catalogue. \nThe Lubaina Himid exhibition\, including recent work and selections from throughout her career\, takes inspiration from Himid’s interest in theater and unfolds in a sequence of scenes designed to place visitors centerstage and backstage. Initially trained in theater design\, Himid is known for her innovative approaches to painting and to social engagement. She has been pivotal in the UK since the 1980s for her contributions to the British Black arts movement\, making space for the expression and recognition of Black experience and women’s creativity. Over the last decade\, she has earned international recognition for her figurative paintings\, which explore overlooked and invisible aspects of history and of contemporary everyday life. In 2017\, she was awarded the Turner Prize and in 2018 she was bestowed with the honorary title of CBE for her contributions to the arts. \nProfessor Merrill is a performance and cultural historian\, specializing in 19th century performances and social issues on stage and in the streets. She applies her research and publications about performance history and critical race and cultural studies\, and spectatorship\, to a range of cultural artifacts\, artworks\, and performances. Currently Professor Merrill’s work on Turner Prize-winning artist Lubaina Himid’s “Memorial to Zong” is part of an exhibition at Lancaster Maritime Museum. \nAdmission is free. Advance registration is required. \nProfessor Merrill thanks the Hofstra University Museum of Art\, the Hofstra Cultural Center and the Center for ‘Race’\, Culture\, and Social Justice for making this talk possible. \n\n\nZoom Link: https://hofstra.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJcqf-2orj8uGtXdqV46oPjG4XpYTW6BURZ3\n\n\nImage Caption:\nLubaina Himid Le Rodeur: The Exchange 2016 © Lubaina Himid Courtesy of the artist and Hollybush Gardens\, London.

SUMMARY:Where Were You? Witnessing History
DESCRIPTION:Where were you when JFK was assassinated\, when the Towers fell\, or when Superstorm Sandy hit Long Island? One of the impacts of significant or life-altering events is that people remember where they were\, whom they were with\, and what they were doing. These types of monumental events often define generations. The 20th century saw the “day which will live in infamy\,” the bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7\, 1941\, which led to the United States entry into World War II. The 1960s were a time of unrest\, highlighted by the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy and the Reverend Martin Luther King\, Jr. along with nationwide civil rights and anti-war protests. The September 11\, 2001 terrorist attacks changed life as we knew it with long-lasting repercussions. A turbulent year\, 2020 began with a global pandemic and continued with civil unrest. The ramifications of these issues continue to emerge. \nThere are many ways we remember and commemorate a major trauma\, whether violent attacks\, war or natural disasters\, including remembrance ceremonies and creating memorial sites. Artistic responses are another. Artists use their talents to express and give voice to deep emotions – sorrow\, mourning\, and unease about what is to come. Works from the Museum’s collection by Jimmy Ernst\, Yonia Fain\, George Grosz\, Käthe Kollwitz\, and Gilles Peress acknowledge wartime atrocities. Jacob Lawrence and Andy Warhol powerfully depict volatile confrontations that occurred in Alabama during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s. The consequences of natural disasters\, such as hurricanes Katrina and Sandy\, are addressed by Luis Cruz Azaceta\, Susannah Ray\, and Michael Redpath. Quilts by Faith Ringgold\, along with works of art\, documents\, and objects from Hofstra University’s Long Island Studies collection\, aid in interpreting the period of September 11th and the days following for future understanding. The works of art included in the exhibition not only address personal beliefs and experiences of the artists\, but also serve to advocate for a cause and as a call to action. \n\nImage: Jimmy Ernst (American\, born Germany\, 1920-1984)\, Crystal Night\, 1963 Oil on canvas\, 34 x 41 1/4 in.\, Hofstra University Museum of Art\, gift of the artist\, HU69.4
