SUMMARY:The State We’re In
DESCRIPTION:Solo exhibition at Kathryn Markel Fine Arts: \nNancy Cohen’s unconventional drawings\, drawn with paper pulp and fritted glass\, find their origin in her move to Jersey City in the 1980s. Along the shore and waterways\, the evergreen vegetation thriving amid industrial waste sparked Cohen’s environmental awareness. Waterways\, as subject and imagery\, draw from personal experience and recur in her work as symbols of nature’s ability to endure adversity. In “The State We’re In\,” Cohen pursues the theme of survival\, environmentally and personally. Cohen describes her process as “thinking with her hands.” Concerns outside the studio and challenges within are explored through physically pushing the boundaries of paper and glass. The materials serve as collaborators and provocateurs\, where fused glass objects or a handmade paper are repurposed as source material and inspiration for later works. Cohen’s choices of materials and processes challenge notions of fragility and resilience. Like fritted glass undergoing transformation in a kiln\, Cohen’s work focuses on strength and beauty in the struggle for survival. \nImage: Nancy Cohen\, Breathing Under Water\, 2023 (detail)

SUMMARY:Open Call: Vote for Democracy
DESCRIPTION:SaveArtSpace has partnered with Michele Pred to bring more public art to Milwaukee\, WI during the Republican National Convention\, starting June 24\, 2024. \nCurated by Michele Pred\, this billboard art exhibition featuring five billboards in Milwaukee\, Wisconsin\, coinciding with the Republican National Convention\, which is scheduled for July 15th to 18th. The billboards will be installed prior to the convention on June 24th and remain until July 22nd\, a few days after its close. \nThe overarching theme of the exhibit is the “preservation of democracy.” Autocracy and the reactionary\, racist ideas that go with it are on the march in the US and across the globe. They are given voice almost daily by the leader of the Republican Party and his minions\, even as the majority of Americans oppose their policies. To stop this surge of fear and hate\, we must make sure that our system does not devolve further. Only then can we continue the fight for an expanded democracy. Inviting persuadable voters to this conversation on one of the largest media stages of the year is a huge opportunity to do just that. \nThe selection process will focus not only on the artistic merits of the work but also on the clarity of the message and its potential to influence moderately conservative voters to support candidates and issues that expand reproductive rights. To this end\, incorporating text is encouraged but not required. \nWe invite artists of all ages and talents to submit their artwork between March 18 and May 13\, 2024. This is an opportunity to have your work placed on billboard ad space in Milwaukee\, WI. Three artists will be chosen from the open call\, they will join Michele Pred\, and Lena Wolff on billboards throughout Milwaukee\, WI. \nOpen call for art ends May 13\, 2024. There is a $10 donation per image submission to participate\, each donation is tax deductible and goes to producing the public art. Selected artists will be announced after May 27\, 2024. Public art will be installed June 24\, 2024 in New York City.

SUMMARY:TFAP@CAA Day of Panels 2024 | A NEW ERA: ART\, ACTIVISM\, AND ABORTION IN POST ROE AMERICA
DESCRIPTION:A New Era:  Art\, Activism and Abortion in Post Roe America \nTFAP@CAA Day of Panels 2024\nFebruary 17\, 2024\, 9am – 3pm\nHilton Chicago – 3rd Floor – Waldorf Room \nA New Era:  Art\, Activism and Abortion in Post Roe America \nSymposium Chair: Luciana McClure\, Southern Connecticut State University \nIn 2022\, Dobbs v. Jackson overturned the right to abortion in the U.S.\, undermining bodily autonomy and privacy. The Feminist Art Project (TFAP) looks at the way praxis as a feminist pedagogical project has changed and been transformed post Roe V. Wade. Artists have returned to the question of the role of feminist art and practice in times of crisis and violence\, particularly around issues of bodily autonomy. As a result\, we have seen a rise of collective solidarity between cis\, queer and trans women artists and collectives leading to the surge of a new wave of feminism. \nTFAP@CAA Day of Panels looks at feminist collective projects that remind us that the personal is political and that feminism is intersectional. TFAP will look critically at how artists\, scholars and organizers respond to this attack on human rights and the patriarchal rhetoric about abortion and its relationship to bodily autonomy. \nPROGRAM:\n9am – 9:30am\nWelcome – Connie Tell\, Chair\, Feminist Art Project National Committee\nIntroduction – Luciana McClure\, Symposium Chair\, (Southern Connecticut State University)\n9:30am – 10:30am\nKeynote talk – Whitney Bradshaw (Independent Artist)\n11:00am – 12:00pm\nAdvocacy to Action: The Power of Activism\, Abortion and Community Engagement\nPanelists: Lydia Nobles (Independent Artist) and Michele Pred (Independent Artist)\n12:30pm – 1:30pm\nThe Politics of Identity & the Body as Medium in Feminist Practice\nPanelists: Corey Loftus (The Institute of Fine Arts\, NYU)\, Martha Poggioli (Colorado College)\, and Sarah Beth Woods (Independent Artist)\n2:00pm – 3:00pm\nClosing Keynote & Call to Action Christen Clifford (The New School) \nVideos of the 2024 Day of Panels will be available on the TFAP website soon! \nTFAP is a Caucus Member of the National Women’s Caucus for Art.

SUMMARY:TFAP@CAA Affiliated Society Session | CHOICE TACTICS: ART\, ABORTION\, AND BODILY AUTONOMY TODAY
DESCRIPTION:TFAP@CAA Affiliated Society Session\nCAA 112th Annual Conference\nFriday\, February 16\, 2024\, 2:30pm – 4pm\nChicago Hilton | 8th Floor – Lake Erie\nConference Registration required for this event!\nCHOICE TACTICS: Art\, Abortion\, and Bodily Autonomy Today\nChairs: Miriam Kienle (University of Kentucky) and Connie Tell (The Feminist Art Project) \nHow do contemporary feminist artists\, art historians\, critics\, and curators address current legal restrictions to abortion access? How do they draw from or push against historical precedents for art about reproductive choice and bodily autonomy? Although acknowledging the tremendous historical harm done\, much present-day art about abortion draws on old visual tropes of clothes hangers and irrevocably marred bodies that has little resonance to the risks posed by the criminalization of abortion today. This imagery not only ignores how ending pregnancy is far safer than it was 50 years ago due to widely accessible medications for menstrual management after abortion became legal\, but it also inadvertently echoes anti-choice propaganda that emphasizes self-harm as integral to abortion. Therefore\, one must ask: How do feminist artists today visualize bodily autonomy\, self-managed menstruation\, and abortion in ways that refuse inaccurate\, outdated\, and punishing representations in favor of ones that are accurate\, informative\, and supportive (perhaps even playful\, joyous\, frustrated\, outraged\, or irreverent)? How might they forge intergenerational solidarities by re-activating historical modes of resistance that avoid nostalgia? How do they educate both menstruating and non-menstruating publics to transform political discourse on abortion? How can they help empower abortion seekers to have their physical\, emotional\, spiritual\, financial\, and/or legal needs met? This panel seeks presentations that investigate the visual and material tactics of feminist art that tackles abortion\, particularly those that attend to the complex gender\, sexual\, racial\, ethnic\, geographic\, historical\, medical\, legal\, and/or economic implications of abortion today. \nPanelists:\nBeau Green (Artist + Full Spectrum Careworker)\nbreadbox: promoting access to high quality abortion care throughpeer-to-peer education and art \nBasia Sliwinska (Universidade Nova de Lisboa)\nMy body (but not) my choice: feminist arts activism towards bodily autonomy \nErin L. McCutcheon (University of Rhode Island)\nPerforming the Politics of Voluntary Motherhood in Mexico City \nLouisa Lee (Buckinghamshire New University)\n‘What you want to do is make people look’: Visibility\, or lack of visibility\, for reproductive rights

SUMMARY:The Brodsky Center at Rutgers University: Three Decades\, 1986–2017
DESCRIPTION:Rutgers Distinguished Professor Emerita Judith K. Brodsky\, a visionary artist and advocate\, arts administrator and entrepreneur\, printmaker\, and scholar\, recognized that women and gender nonconforming artists\, as well as artists of color\, were excluded from the art world in the 1980s. Brodsky’s pioneering vision set out to rectify the situation by establishing in 1986 a print- and papermaking residency center for these artists\, now known as the Brodsky Center. From its inception\, the Center strategically placed itself at the vanguard of art making\, not only with print and papermaking techniques but also with the innovation of new ideas and narratives as a model for institutional and artworld diversity\, equity\, and inclusion. \nThe Brodsky Center\, with state-of-the-art facilities\, was the site of experiments with concepts that emerged in the 21st century as dominant concerns of artists in the contemporary art world: race and ethnic identity\, nonconforming gender issues\, climate and the environment\, the politics of language\, and immigration. The Center encouraged artists to explore how working in what were often for them the new processes of print and paper could expand their previous realms of thought. While at Rutgers University\, the Brodsky Center served as a catalyst for cultural transformation in New Jersey\, in the United States\, and worldwide. It continues to do so at its present location in Philadelphia\, the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. \nThe artworks on view in this exhibition are illustrative of new imagery and artistic languages now incorporated into contemporary art making in the 21st century. The exhibition is thematically conceived\, exemplifying the Brodsky Center’s mission to insert new narratives into the American cultural mainstream. Five representative artworks\, as emblems that capture the essence of the Brodsky Center\, have been singled out for placement at the entrance to the exhibition. The works on view are then organized into nine other sections: Cultural Vitality and Social Justice\, Documenting Place: Real and Imagined\, Escaping the Unitary Linear\, Icons and Symbols\, Innovations\, Looking at the Portrait\, The Sages\, Tribulations and Endings\, and Visualizing Texts. \nOrganized by Ferris Olin\, Distinguished Professor Emerita\, Rutgers University
