Concert | Hangzo Helikon: Hungarian Folk Music (online)


This concert presents a uniquely Hungarian program called "Hangzo Helikon". In the flowering of the folk and world music movement in Hungary, the genre of "sung verse" accompanied by folk instruments has played a highly significant role. Ferenc Sebo made his mark singing the verse of Jozsef Attila, while the Kalaka Ensemble has been synonymous for some 45 years with the setting of poetic masterpieces to music. The Hangzo Helikon series is an indispensable part of this tradition. The Palace of Arts has been the setting for presentations of numerous Hangzo Helikon albums to the public, of which a taster is provided here by Bea Palya, Kalaka and the Sebo Ensemble - performing verse by, among others, Janos Arany, Attila Jozsef, Sandor Kanyadi, Anna Kiss, Dezso Kosztolanyi, Ervin Lazar, Laszlo Nagy and Lorinc Szabo.

Book Club | Theatre and the Question of the Absurd


This four-session course will look at key plays and authors of what has come to be called (notably by critic Martin Esslin) “the Theatre of the Absurd.” With each play, participants will develop their notion of what “the absurd,” as a concept and as a technique, might have meant in the crafting and reception of these plays, and what it could mean now. Should we think of “the absurd” as a philosophical concept (life is meaningless, with no metaphysical presence or authority) – to which the existentialist Jean-Paul Sartre responded by insisting on human responsibility to create meaning? Should we think of “the absurd” as the realm of non-sense (incoherent thought and /or language; disassociation of what is said from what is seen) that captures how we often communicate? Or, is “the absurd” how we label behavior that is unacceptable or incomprehensible? Could “absurdist theatre” engage all of these definitions? The course will also ask why it is that all of these plays have seen recent and successful politicized productions, two (Rhinoceros and The Maids) being newly translated by the brilliant British dramatist Martin Crimp. Could it be that the absurd, seen in a certain light, speaks pointedly to our current historical moment of political crises and insecurity? Participants will be expected to have read the dramatic text BEFORE coming to the relevant session. FOURTH SESSION: Sony Labou Tansi, a Congolese writer influenced by European theatrical forms, wrote terrifyingly sardonic plays in French about irrational dictators in unnamed African countries. In The Parentheses of Blood (translated by Lorraine Alexander), soldiers seek Libertashio, a rebel leader. They must not, however, find him as their orders are to “seek.” In this discussion of this play, participants will consider how death haunts the stage, why Labou Tansi imagines his drama as a game, and if the absurd is not just another name for war.

Opening Reception | Can't Read the Room: Group Show


An exhibition of thesis work by 14 senior students in the BFA Visual and Critical Studies program. It embraces the complexities in presenting a group exhibition, weaving together diverse methodologies which address a range of social, political and artistic issues within a shared context. Rather than a selection of works that enhance the meaning of a singular theme, this exhibition aims to dispel artistic boundaries and bring cohesion to differences both aesthetic and cultural, where the individualism characteristic of postmodernism is exchanged for a "kind of collaboration...emblematic of democracy."

Opening Reception | Keli Safia Maksud: worried notes


The exhibition builds upon the artist’s ongoing interest in the formation of national identity, particularly in relation to post-colonial African statehood. Through sound, sculpture, installation, text, printmaking, and embroidery, Maksud explores notions of replication and standardization as enduring influences of colonialism — and as processes that continue to shape individual and collective understandings of self. Utilizing diagrammatic systems of notation as a starting point, worried notes examines inherited identities, cultural memory, and received histories. A “worried note” — also called a “blue note” — is a term in musicology that refers to a note that falls slightly below one that exists on the Western 12-tone major scale. Present in blues, jazz, and gospel music, and derived from African vocalization that is not based on the major scale, worried notes are often thought — within the construct of Western music — to contribute to sound that is expressive and intense, conveying emotions such as pain, longing, melancholy, and despair. It is in this space of dissonance that Maksud plays with boundaries often considered to be objective or inherent. Using embroidery as a language, she exposes traces of the past that inform our present context, stitching and embossing fragments of architectural blueprints, cartography, mathematical formulas, and music onto carbon paper. The musical fragments, in particular, represent pieces of various African national anthems, which were developed in the wake of colonial departure from the continent and sought to create shared identities for citizens of newly independent nations. However, they were often modeled after the anthems of former colonial powers in notation, structure, and concept. In repeating the musical norms of the West, they reinforced sonic — and cultural — borders analogous to those created through the haphazardous geographic partitioning of Africa.

Opening Reception | Raven Chacon: A Worm’s Eye View from a Bird’s Beak


A 2023 MacArthur “Genius” Fellow and the first Native American artist to receive the Pulitzer Prize for music in 2022, Chacon works through sound, video, scores, performance and sculpture to address Indigenous sovereignty and environmental justice. The show brings together groundbreaking works from the last 25 years with a newly commissioned sound and video installation, novel iterations of pioneering works, and a major public art mural on the building. The exhibition spans diverse geographic contexts: Sápmi (the Sámi homeland traversed by the present-day nation states of Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia) and Lenapehoking, or New York, in Turtle Island. Both locations share Indigenous histories and presents that colonialism has attempted to eradicate for centuries. Yet they are also sites where resilience, or, in the words of cultural theorist Gerald Vizenor, survivance, continues to thrive.

Book Discussion | Red, White, and Blue on the Runway: The 1968 White House Fashion Show and the Politics of American Style (online)


On February 29, 1968, the White House hosted its first--and only--fashion show. At the time, the patriotic event was lauded by the press, and many predicted it would become an annual occasion, especially since fashion had grown to become the fourth largest industry in the United States, employing 1.4 million Americans, more than 80 percent of them women. But the social and political turmoil of that particular year--from the Vietnam War, the civil rights movement, and the assassinations of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Sen. Robert F. Kennedy--cast a shadow over the festivities. Dr. Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell's book is a behind-the-scenes look at this once-in-a-lifetime event, and why it was destined to be the last. The politics of fashion touched everyone involved in this landmark occasion in American fashion history, from hostess Lady Bird Johnson and the Johnson daughters to the designers, including Bill Blass, Mollie Parnis, Geoffrey Beene, and Oscar de la Renta, as well as the models and guests. Chrisman-Campbell is an award-winning fashion historian, curator, and journalist. She is the author of Fashion Victims: Dress at the Court of Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette, Worn on This Day: The Clothes That Made History, The Way We Wed: A Global History of Wedding Fashion, and Skirts: Fashioning Modern Femininity in the 20th Century.

The Animated History of Tibet is a nine-part historical documentary series featuring original artwork, maps, and interviews with leading specialists in Tibetan history and culture from universities across Europe and North America. The series will take viewers on an animated journey through over 1300 years of history, starting with the rise and fall of the Tibetan Empire and the first spread of Buddhism to Tibet in the 7th century CE. Later episodes will focus on the origins of the Tibetan Buddhist sects, the court intrigue of the government of the Dalai Lamas, and the complex and shifting relationship that Tibet shared with the Chinese Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties. The final two episodes will explore Tibet as an object of European orientalist fantasy and imperial ambition, as well as the invasion and annexation of Tibet by the People’s Republic of China and the origins of the modern Tibetan diaspora. Attend a pre-release screening of the first two episodes of The Animated History of Tibet and, following the screening, a discussion and Q&A session with the series’ co-producer and writer, Dr. Alexander K. Smith and the lead animator, Saraa Amber.

Discussion | Putting a Price on Carbon: Carbon Border Adjustments, Climate Change, and International Trade


In responding to the growing climate crisis, governments across the globe are deploying new and ambitious market-based policies aimed at driving down greenhouse gas emissions. A prime example is the European Union’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), which began to take effect in fall 2023. It will price the carbon emissions of certain carbon-intensive imports into the EU, such as cement, steel, and some electricity, if the producing country does not have climate policies equivalent to the EU’s. CBAM aims to level the playing field for products produced in the EU, which already face a carbon price, and to prevent carbon leakage. While CBAM could spur countries outside the EU to adopt more robust climate policies, it also might disadvantage industries in the Global South that export to the EU and prompt protectionist responses from others, which would harm international trade. There also are questions about whether CBAM is consistent with international trade rules. At this panel event, experts in trade, climate, and international economic law will discuss CBAM’s implications for the United States and other countries, and the challenge of achieving a balance between climate action and international trade. PANELISTS: Dr. Inu Manak, Fellow for Trade Policy, Council on Foreign Relations Dr. Jesse Scott, Visiting Research Fellow, German Economic Research Institute DIW Berlin; Adjunct, Hertie School Robert Howse, Lloyd C.

Film | Histoires d’A (1973): Abortion Rights in France


A landmark documentary about the struggle for abortion rights in France, opens with a card stating that the women we are about to see—women seeking abortions, campaigning as activists, or living with the consequences of the repressive laws governing reproductive health—are not exceptional. Yet Histoires d’A stands apart from the dogmatic militant cinema of its era precisely because it allows us to see its subjects not as illustrations of a trend, but as individuals with their singular problems and—most importantly—their perspectives. Directors: Charles Belmont and Marielle Issartel 85 min. In French with English subtitles Followed by a discussion.

Book Discussion | Leonor: The Story of a Lost Childhood


Author Paula Delgado-Kling takes us to her homeland, Colombia, where she finds answers to the country’s drug wars by examining the life of Leonor, a former child soldier in the FARC, a rural guerrilla group. Delgado-Kling followed Leonor for nineteen years, from shortly after she was an active member forced into sexual slavery by a commander thirty-four years her senior, through her rehabilitation and struggle with alcohol and drug addiction, to more recent days, as the mom of two girls. Leonor’s immense resourcefulness and imagination in the face of horrendous circumstances helped her carve a space for herself in the FARC, a world dominated by males. She is beautiful, and by honing her powers of seduction, Leonor created a parallel world where she made herself a protagonist. She never stopped believing that she was a woman of worth and importance. It took her many years of therapy to accept that she was a victim. For half a lifetime, she regarded herself as “the First Lady of the Southern Bloc,” and exploited any power she fabricated for herself to stay alive.

Film | Eva's Promise (2022): Art Hidden from the Nazis (in-person and online)


This documentary tells the story of Eva, who promised her brother, Heinz Geiringer, that she would retrieve his paintings and poetry, hidden under the floorboards of their family's attic, if he should die in the concentration camps. Heinz and Eva's mother married Otto Frank, Anne Frank's father, after the war, and so their story often sits in the shadows of The Diary of a Young Girl, but this film showcases Heinz's artistry and Eva's dedication to share his story. Director: Steve McCarthy 60 min. Followed by a talkback with McCarthy; Eva's grandson, Eric Schloss; and the film's producer, Susan Kerner. Explore Eva's incredible story, as well as the stories of the Schloss and Geiringer families who have kept Eva and Heinz's legacies alive over the years.
