Can’t Wait: Participate An exhibition by Angela Davis Fegan Wednesday, February 21 | 5:00-7:00pm Artists’ Talk and Celebration Can’t Wait: Participate will feature Angela Davis Fegan’s hand-printed wood type letterpress posters exploring the theme of participation as demonstrated care, as part of the CSGS’s series Care@Chicago in February 2018. This exhibition is an extension of an ongoing series of posters that Fegan has produced over the last four years, the lavender menace poster project, which is a public messaging and infiltration project produced through handmade paper production, letterpress printing and laser cut text. The paper production process involves incorporating organic and recycled/repurposed materials for symbolic/emblematic and grotesque results. Letterpress printing is used as subversion of the traditional means of mass commercial communication, and the current quaint production of wedding invitations. The goal of the work is to produce multifaceted alluring/repulsive handmade objects that stand out from the slick media saturated environment and announce resistance from the status quo. The project stems from a desire to voice institutional critique and run interference on mainstream leftist organizations that market tolerance as freedom and rights as consumer choices. Fegan’s interest, in these specific mediums, stems from her committed desire to craft handmade objects in the time of the supremacy of ephemeral digital experience. It is these types of handmade objects that lend themselves to the tactile viewing experience and to distribution through a network beyond that of a single location. It is meant for viewing in public space, such as bar bathrooms, community health centers, alleys, and hair salons. Angela Davis Fegan is a native of Chicago’s South Side. A graduate of Chicago’s famed Whitney Young High School, she received her BFA in Fine Arts from New York’s Parsons School of Design and her MFA in Interdisciplinary Book and Paper Arts from Columbia College Chicago. She has mounted shows at the University of Illinois at Chicago’s Montgomery Ward Gallery, Galerie F, Chicago Artists’ Coalition, the DePaul Art Museum, The Center for Book Arts (NY) and the Hyde Park Art Center. Her work has been selected for book covers including How to Seduce a White Boy in Ten Easy Steps by Laura Yes Yes, The Truth About Dolls by Jamila Woods, Secondhand by Maya Marshall, Where Brooklyn At by Roger Bonair-Agard and All Blue So Late by Laura Swearingen-Steadwell. Her work has been written about in The Offing (LA Review of Books), Hyperallergic, Chicago Magazine, the RedEye and the Chicago Reader. Both events are free and open to the public. This event is part of Care@Chicago, a project designed to examine and practice forms of self-care and ask what constitutes repair and relief in states and times of trauma. Co-sponsored by the Center for the Study of Race, Politics, and Culture. Event photo by Jasmine Clark.

Co-sponsored by the Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts, the Counter Cinema/Counter Media Project at the University of Chicago Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality, and the Nightingale Cinema. Barbara Hammer will appear via Skype in conversation with Jennifer Wild, associate professor in the University of Chicago’s Department of Cinema and Media Studies and Department of Romance Languages and Literatures. As part of a two-night celebration of pioneering lesbian filmmaker Barbara Hammer, we’re pleased to present the Chicago premiere of her latest film, Welcome To This House (2015, 79 min., DCP), a feature documentary on the homes and loves of poet Elizabeth Bishop (1911-1979), about life in the shadows, and the anxiety of art making without full self-disclosure. Hammer filmed in Bishop’s “best loved homes” in the U.S., Canada, and Brazil, believing that buildings and landscapes bear cultural memories. Interviews with poets, friends, and scholars provide “missing documents” of numerous female lovers. Bishop’s intimate poetry is beautifully performed by Kathleen Chalfant, and with the creative music composition by Joan La Barbara, it brings Bishop into our lives with new ways and unexpected details. Senses of Cinema raved, “as befits its subject, the film is a primarily poetic project, which inhabits the world of Bishop and her poetry, entranced by the beauty of life in all its forms.” Slant Magazine said “Hammer is careful to keep the film’s focus primarily on a sensorial experience of Bishop’s work and chosen habitat, which at its best becomes a polymorphous evocation of the sonorous affects permeating Bishop’s physical and psychological milieu.”

This panel will examine the structure of exchange between the scared and profane. It will examine markets where actors manage disreputable exchange in taboo markets. To push the field further the panel will ask how do you we think about exchanges that are “legal” but socially disreputable? How do market actors obfuscate disreputable ties through highly intimate and personal ways like gift-giving?

Aleksi Barrière is a contemporary stage and artistic director currently working in Paris. In advance of the production of Letter of Love (The Fundamentals of Judo) for Chicago's Trap Door theater, Barrière will discuss his approach to theatrical narrative, performance, and mise-en-scène that draws from two radical, French avant-garde movements: the "Panic Movement," founded in Paris in 1962 by Fernando Arrabal, Alejandro Jodorowsky, and Roland Topor; and "New Realism," which had important ramifications for both painting and performance art. The Counter Cinema/Counter Media Program will sponsor a student outing to the Trap Door Theater on April 12 to see Barrière’s play, which is based on texts by Fernando Arrabal and Yves Klein. Students may reserve a ticket by emailing a request to Dan Bertsche (ddb1@uchicago.edu) or Jennifer Wild (jenniferwild@uchicago.edu). About the play: Letters of Love (The Fundamentals of Judo) We are invited to partake in a judo fight, a game of chess, a reading of tarot cards, a monologue for four voices. This war against war is theatre as seen by poet Fernando Arrabal and painter Yves Klein, in the Latin Quarter in Paris in the 60s where they never met. It is a struggle against the prisons built by the dictators of the bodies and of the minds, even when they are our own mothers. A struggle where each punch and hold will be an embrace – an act of love.

Mar 1, 7:00 PM: Screening of Jane: An Abortion Service with panel discussion

0
0
The Film Studies Center and the Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality present a screening and panel discussion about reproductive rights. Jane: An Abortion Service is a fascinating political look at a little-known chapter in women's history. The film tells the story of "Jane," the Chicago-based women's health group who performed nearly 12,000 safe illegal abortions between 1969 and 1973 with no formal medical training. As Jane members describe finding feminism and clients describe finding Jane, archival footage and recreations mingle to depict how the repression of the early sixties and social movements of the late sixties influenced this unique group. Both vital knowledge and meditation on the process of empowerment, Jane: An Abortion Service showcases the importance of preserving women's knowledge in the face of revisionist history. (Kate Kirtz & Nell Lundy, USA, 1996, 58 min., digital video) Following the film is a panel discussion featuring Jenna Prochaska, staff attorney of the ACLU’s Women’s and Reproductive Rights Project; Leah Greenblum, director of the Midwest Access Coalition; Tiffany Pryor, executive director of Illinois Caucus for Adolescent Health; Kristin Schilt, associate professor and director of the University of Chicago's Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality; Sarah Valliere, clinical training alumna of the Midwest Access Project; and Jennifer Wild, associate professor in the Department of Cinema & Media Studies and the Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality at the University of Chicago. Co-sponsored by the Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality.

Elliott Powell, Assistant Professor, Dept of American Studies, University of Minnesota “Super Freaks and ATLiens: The Queer Afro-South Asian Aesthetic Futures of Rick James and OutKast” Abstract: Popular music scholars generally contend that the 1980s and 1990s were a period of increased politically charged musical cross-currents between black and South Asian sounds and musicians in the United Kingdom and the Caribbean, but not in the U.S. This paper challenges this narrative by exploring the place of South Asian aesthetics in the work of U.S. funk artist Rick James and American rap duo OutKast. In particular, this talk analyzes James’s 1986 album The Flag, his only solo album to feature South Asian instrumentation, and Outkast’ 1996 album ATLiens, their only album to engage South Asian cultural forms, for the ways that these albums use South Asian culture to articulate transformative black political ideologies. Through interviews and textual analysis, I argue that James and OutKast deploy the figures of “freaks” and “aliens,” respectively, as intercultural queer positionalities that trouble the dominant heteropatriarchal discourse of black politics. In so doing, I illustrate the ways in which these albums and artists’ use freaks and aliens to cultivate sonic and political possibilities that help us imagine and articulate a new kind of vision of intersectional, transnational, and coalitional praxis. Elliott H Powell is an Assistant Professor of American Studies at the University of Minnesota. He received his BA in History from The University of Chicago and PhD in American Studies from New York University. He is the recipient of numerous fellowship and awards from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the Ford Foundation, the Woodrow Wilson Foundation, and the International Association for the Study of Popular Music. His work is published or forthcoming in GLQ: A Journal of Lesbian and Gay Studies, philoSOPHIA: A Journal of Continental Feminism, the Oxford Handbook of Hip Hop Studies, and The Black Scholar (for which he co-edited their first queer and/or trans special issue). And he is currently finishing his book manuscript, The Other Side of Things: African American and South Asian Collaborative Sounds in Black Popular Music, which brings together critical race, feminist, and queer theories to consider the political implications of African American and South Asian collaborative music-making practices in U.S.-based black popular music since the 1960s. A reception will follow. This event is co-sponsored by the Center for the Study of Race, Politics, and Culture and the Center for the Study of Gender and Sexuality.

The Craft of Teaching and the Divinity School share the belief that matters of race and religion, so significant in defining the present moment, transcend the limits of Swift Hall, and it is crucial that specialists from other institutions be invited to guide community members in engaging race and religion productively, responsibly, and with intellectual and moral clarity, not only in classes directly pertaining to these topics, but in all manner of classes where they intersect other fields and problems. For this workshop, Prof. Schmidt will take the lead in guiding us in such dialogue and the ways in which it can be translated productively into the classroom. Prof. Angie Heo will provide a response.

Apr 16, 4:30 PM: Joseph J. Fischel, “Kink & Football, Consent & Dignity”

0
0
2018 Distinguished Alumni Lecture Joseph J. Fischel, PhD '11 “Kink & Football, Consent & Dignity” BDSM draws its moral, political, even erotic energies from consent talk. Yet erotic cannibalism and other lethal sex practices challenge consent as a guarantor of permissible, let alone good, sex. If consent does not vindicate any and all rough sex, what about other rough play, like football? Fischel argues that analogizing kinky sex to football to legitimate the former ultimately indicts the latter. Drawing on material from his forthcoming manuscript, "Screw Consent," and from his current research on the conceptual promiscuity of dignity, Fischel proposes that neither consent nor dignity deliver the sexual politics they promise. Joseph Fischel is an Associate Professor and Director of Graduate Studies of Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Yale University. Fischel is a theorist of social and sexual justice. His research on the regulation of sex, gender, and sexuality is informed by normative political theory, queer studies, and critical race and feminist legal theory. His first two books interrogate consent as the magnetizing, dominant metric of modern sex law and late modern sexual ethics. Sex and Harm in the Age of Consent (University of Minnesota Press, 2016) argues that the sociolegal figures of the recidivistic sex offender, the innocent child and the heroic homosexual invest consent with its normative power while obfuscating more pervasive but less perceptible forms of sexual injury and gendered violence. Sex and Harm in the Age of Consent won the 2017 Foundations in Political Theory First Book Award from the American Political Science Association. Fischel received his PhD from the Political Science Department at the University of Chicago in 2011. His dissertation, which developed into his first book, was supported by coursework, mentorship, and/or fellowships from the Political Science Department, the University of Chicago Law School, and the Center for the Study of Gender & Sexuality. His dissertation received the 2012 Julian Mezey Best Dissertation Award from the Association of the Study of Law, Culture and the Humanities. Free and open to the public.
