SUMMARY:Online Artist Talk | Curtis Talwst Santiago: Can’t I Alter
DESCRIPTION:Curtis Talwst Santiago: Can’t I Alter is the first exhibition devoted to the Canadian-Trinidadian artist’s drawing practice\, which has expanded significantly in recent years. Throughout his work\, Santiago grapples with “genetic imagination\,” or the ability to access generational knowledge through imaginative recollection and projection. For the artist\, this method serves as a means of wading through histories lost\, hidden\, and often tangled. In Can’t I Alter\, Santiago creates a multi-faceted narrative in an immersive\, drawing-filled installation that explores the theme of ancestry and the necessity of preserving the past while acknowledging the fallacies implicit in historical recollection. As viewers explore the space\, they join Santiago and his alter ego\, the J’ouvert Knight\, in an attempt to locate a diasporic ancestor whose existence cannot ever be fully grasped. A newly commissioned film accompanies the installation\, as well as performances organized by Santiago. \nLearn more about the exhibition here. \n\nImage: Curtis Talwst Santiago\, Red Face Ancestral Vision 1\, 2018.

SUMMARY:Bellwethers: The Culture of Controversy
DESCRIPTION:On three consecutive Tuesdays this spring – May 21\, May 28\, and June 4 – The Drawing Center will present a new program series\, Bellwethers: The Culture of Controversy\, which will convene a prominent group of writers\, cultural critics\, and artists to respond to a cultural “bellwether” and take it in their own interpretative direction. Each session examines a timely indicator\, word\, or phrase emblematic of a polemical socio-political topic of our moment and that impacts art as well as broader cultural production. \nTuesday\, June 4 at 6:30pm\nCANCELLATION\nWith Anna Khachiyan and Natasha Stagg\nForget the old style of enforcing political correctness—the new culture of cancellation is socially swift and unilaterally unpredictable. On the one hand\, “cancel culture” has been used to swiftly punish perceived criminal behavior; on the flip side\, it can operate as a means to extinguish nuanced debate and cast out public figures in trials by Twitter. How do we navigate this phenomenon that some see as inherently undemocratic and anti-nuanced and others praise as effective in a world in which the law is statistically proven to fail women and people of color? How does cancellation impact revisionist artistic and political histories? \nAnna Khachiyan is a writer based in New York. Khachiyan is co-host of the podcast Red Scare\, and an occasional art critic. She was “cancelled” by Twitter in 2018 due to her polemical commentaries\, and is a leading voice on the millennial left. \nNatasha Stagg is a writer based in New York. Stagg’s work has appeared in Affidavit\, Artforum\, Bookforum\, The Brooklyn Rail\, CR Fashion Book\, DIS Magazine\, n+1\, The Paris Review\, Spike Art Quarterly\, among many other publications. Stagg’s debut novel Surveys was published by Semiotext(e)/Native Agents in 2016\, and her book of critical essays will be published by Semiotext(e) later this year. \nImage: L to R\, Natasha Stagg and Anna Khachiyan.

Our current Age of Anxiety is super charged by the 24-7 newstainment cycle\, designed to keep us flickering through states of hysteria and scandal\, worry and outrage. Is there any relief from this panic? How does this time relate to other periods of collective hysteria? \nAndrea Long Chu is a writer\, designer\, doctoral candidate\, and sad trans girl in Brooklyn. Chu’s writing has been published by the New York Times\, Affidavit\, Artforum\, Bookforum\, and n+1. She also publishes a monthly journal on television called Paper View. Her first book Females will be published by Verso this October. \nJamieson Webster is a psychoanalyst and cultural critic based in New York. Weber is the author of The Life and Death of Psychoanalysis (2011) and Conversion Disorder: Listening to the Body in Psychoanalysis (2018); she also co-wrote\, with Simon Critchley\, Stay\, Illusion! The Hamlet Doctrine (2013). She teaches at the New School and supervises doctoral students in clinical psychology at the City University of New York. She co-writes a regular column for Spike with Alison Gingeras. \nImage: L to R\, Andrea Long Chu and Jamieson Webster.

SUMMARY:Bellwethers: The Culture of Controversy
DESCRIPTION:On three consecutive Tuesdays this spring – May 21\, May 28\, and June 4 – The Drawing Center will present a new program series\, Bellwethers: The Culture of Controversy\, which will convene a prominent group of writers\, cultural critics\, and artists to respond to a cultural “bellwether” and take it in their own interpretative direction.

This session invites contributors to engage with this form and its myriad applications as: a call to action\, theatrical exercise\, prescriptive fiction\, or a platform for extremist philosophizing or paradoxical pontification. \nChiara Bottici is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the New School for Social Research. Professor Bottici has written on myth\, imagination\, ancient and early modern philosophy\, the Frankfurt School\, psychoanalysis\, feminism\, and contemporary social and political philosophy. She is currently at work on a book on Anarcha-feminism. \nSam McKinniss is an artist and writer based in New York. McKinniss’s writing is regularly published in Artforum. His manifesto will address how an artist should be. \nAdrian Matejka is the author of The Devil’s Garden (2003) and Mixology (2009). His third collection of poems\, The Big Smoke (2013)\, was a finalist for the 2014 Pulitzer Prize. His most recent book of poetry (Map to the Stars)\, was published in 2017. Among Matejka’s other honors are a Pushcart Prize and fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation\, the Lannan Foundation\, the National Endowment for the Arts\, and a Simon Fellowship from United States Artists. He is the Ruth Lilly Professor of Poetry at Indiana University Bloomington and currently serves as Poet Laureate for the state of Indiana. \nAudrey Wollen is a writer and artist who lives in New York. Most recently\, Wollen’s artwork has appeared at the Museum of Modern Art Warsaw; Barischer Kunstverein\, Karlsruhe; the Washington Square Windows at 80wse gallery\, New York; as well as in a one-artist exhibition at Steve Turner Gallery\, Los Angeles. Her critical writing has appeared and is forthcoming in Affidavit\, The Nation\, and Bookforum. She is currently pursuing a PhD at The Graduate Center\, CUNY.
