SUMMARY:The Artist & Homeless Collective (discussion)
DESCRIPTION:THE ARTIST & HOMELESS COLLECTIVE \nHope Sandrow (artist) \nDiscussant\, Nina Felshin (editor of But Is it Art? The Spirit of Art and Activism) \nZoom \nContact myamamura3524@gmail.com for login info \nIn the early 1990s\, conceptual artist Hope Sandrow founded the Artist & Homeless Collaborative\, an innovative New York City public art project. Combining elements of grassroots activity with media techniques\, she worked with homeless women living at the Lenox Hill Women’s Mental Health Shelter at the Park Avenue Armory and several New York artists\, exploring the transformative potential of art in public and private life. Together with volunteers from the art world and activist groups including the Guerrilla Girls\, Women’s Action Coalition\, and Visual AIDS\, the women residents called attention to their experiences through exhibitions\, published work\, and activist poster projects. Sandrow will discuss her project with Nina Felshin\, the editor of But Is it Art? The Spirit of Art as Activism (Seattle\, WA; Bay Press\, 1995).

SUMMARY:How to Begin Again: An Initiation Towards Unitary Urbanism
DESCRIPTION:HOW TO BEGIN AGAIN: AN INITIATION TOWARDS UNITARY URBANISM \nMiguel Robles-Durán (Cohabitation Strategies) \nZoom \n  \nCohStra’s Venice Architecture Biennale piece\, How to Begin Again: An Initiation Towards Unitary Urbanism\, is a response to the question curator Hashim Sarkis posed\, “How will we live together” in the midst of global crises like climate change\, wealth inequality\, mass migrations\, political polarization\, and now pandemics? The current state of global\, neoliberal urbanization exploits communities\, cultures\, and the environment. How to Begin Again is a 4-step initiation to a new awareness about alternatives for the future of urban design. It centers on the concept of unitary urbanism\, which CohStra redefines as “an anti-capitalist and transdisciplinary practice that attempts to bridge popular and scientific knowledge to co-produce social and environmental justice in cities.” \nIn 2008\, the urbanist Miguel Robles-Durán\, together with his work partners Lucia Babina\, Emiliano Gandolfi\, and Gabriela Rendón\, founded Stichting Cohabitation Strategies (CohStra)\, an international nonprofit cooperative for socio-spatial research and development based in Rotterdam and New York City. CohStra focuses on conditions of urban decline\, inequality\, and segregation within the contemporary city. The group developed and designed over a dozen transdisciplinary urban projects in Europe\, Asia\, North America\, and South America\, utilizing different methodologies to structure frameworks that catalyze grassroots-led transformations.

SUMMARY:Art / Activism / Context / Surveillance (Lecture)
DESCRIPTION:This lecture\, held on Zoom\, traces the development of Beirne’s activist art and performance practice in relation to some precedents in modern art history. Email myamamura3524@gmail.com for registration information. \nThe artist will present selections from his work since the early ’70s that address political and sociological concerns. Also\, Beirne will discuss the genesis and implementation of Priority Seating\, his participatory work created for the UnHomeless NYC exhibition\, with special attention to surveillance. \nBill Beirne currently lives and works in New York City. For more than four decades\, Beirne’s conceptual art has examined public space\, communication\, interactivity\, and sociological concerns through public performances. In addition to exhibitions in the US and in Eastern and Western Europe\, he was commissioned by the Madison Square Park Conservancy’s public art series\, Madison Square Art. In his video installation and performance Madison Square Trapezoids\, Beirne\,  as “The Vigilant Groundsman\,” performed absurdist lawn maintenance tasks within the boundaries of live surveillance-monitored areas of the park.

SUMMARY:UnHomeless NYC
DESCRIPTION:7 March – 14 April\, 2022\nOpening March 9th 3-7pm (in person) \nOverview\nKingsborough Art Museum (KAM) is pleased to present UnHomeless NYC\, a group exhibition that brings together sixteen artists and artist groups who use participation\, activism\, and pedagogy as their media. Connecting students\, artists\, activists\, academicians\, and the public\, the show offers a forum to consider and better understand NYC’s housing crisis and think about our future as the city emerges from the pandemic in Spring 2021. \nBackground\nThe exhibition holds particular importance for Kingsborough; based on the 2018 #RealCollege survey\, out of the 22\,000 CUNY students\, 55% were housing insecure in the previous year\, and 14% were homeless. UnHomeless NYC was initially conceived to challenge the stigma of homelessness. Through artworks that highlight research\, statistics\, and activism\, the show will examine how the fundamental human right to housing has been eclipsed in this city and offering an opportunity to imagine a different future. \nArtwork\nThe first work in the exhibition\, Miguel Robels-Duran and Cohabitation Strategies’s (CohStra) twenty-four-minute documentary video\, Uneven Growth (2014)\, convincingly explains how neoliberalism has affected land use and changed people’s relation to housing in New York City\, especially after the 2008 financial crisis. The new landowners–the banks and hedge fund firms–manage their tenants as dots on a spreadsheet\, treating homes as commodities. This section also introduces examples of CohStra’s transformative urban design that suggests alternative possibilities for the future of our city. \nAcross from CohStra stands the show’s centerpiece\, a recreation of an installation from Martha Rosler’s If You Lived Here . . . originally exhibited in 1989. Rosler\, the long-time anti-homeless advocate and activist-artist\, invites contemporary local activists to use her work as their headquarters\, as other activists did in the work’s original installation. Another artwork in this section by critical urbanist Manon Vergerio is the Anti-Eviction Mapping Project (est. 2014)\, which provides the opportunity to view eviction data on a city map while listening to the recordings of the evictees’ personal stories. BFAMFAPh.D. an artists’ collective that bases its work in radical pedagogy\, will invite a group of KCC administrators and students to form a think tank with NYC housing activists that will seek solutions to the unique forms of housing and food insecurity that exist on campuses. \nMichael Rakowitz’s paraSITE workshop creates a portable inflatable shelter that galvanizes a do-it-yourself spirit and foregrounds marginalized voices for viewer participants. Bill Beirne’s Priority Seating (2017-) initiates change by asking gallery visitors to place the priority seating signs he created on public benches and other support structures to advocate for preferential seating for the homeless. Amplifying the messages of these seminal pieces\, the artist William Baronet will display in the gallery\, a selection of signs Baronet has been purchasing from homeless people for over three decades. Michael Corris will create a ‘zine\, Incidents on the Street: A Workbook\, based on the stories these signs reveal. \nCanadian artist Dominique Paul’s Median Income Dress (2015) contains LED lights that make visible the city’s rezoning and gentrification. Connected to the colors of online census-based income maps\, the dress changes to distinguish residents’ income levels as she walks through various parts of Brooklyn and Manhattan\, and engages the passersby in conversation about the changes they were witnessing in their neighborhood. Income and related issues of race also echo in Dread Scott’s two photographs from the 2016 series entitled On the Impossibility of Freedom in a Country Founded on Slavery and Genocide. In this series\, Scott places contemporary struggles for racial justice within the history of civil rights activism in the United States\, pointing to the foundation of inequality and calling for institutional change. \nCollaboration is a focus of the exhibition. Hope Sandrow and The Artists and Homeless Collaborative’s historical video\, Making Art\, Reclaiming Lives (1993)\, demonstrates the value of collective artmaking by documenting the creation of a mural by homeless women living at the NYC Park Avenue Shelter as they worked together with several New York artists. The show will also feature Sandrow’s Shelter News and Resumé project. The artist duo Susan Hoffman Fishman and Elena Kalman’s site-specific installation\, Fragmented Home: Kingsborough (2021)\, provides visitors the opportunity to manifest their ideas of home to create and collectively build a structure made of black parachute cord and 6” x 24” pieces of corrugated cardboard. As part of an outreach effort beyond the campus\, during the exhibition\, the artist Nancy Hwang\, in collaboration with chef Heidi Thomas\, will host eight extraordinary dining experiences for eight homeless people each time\, under Maya Lin’s Ghost Forest (2021) at Madison Square Park. At-a-glance Huang’s work makes us contemplate the overlapping issues of homelessness and ecology. \nUnHomeless NYC further proposes ecology and regenerative energy as alternative frames within which to reconsider the housing crisis. Considering the unique clothing needs of the homeless\, Sachigusa Yasuda will work with fashion-design students and others to reimagine modes of production and distribution with her anti-capitalist clothing line\, UpCycle\, UpLift. By altering recycled clothes to suit the requirements of those who live on the street\, Yasuda invites the public to envision alternative economic systems that are more equitable. Considering different models for habitation and community in the age of climate change\, Bibi Calderaro of The Institute for Wishful Thinking (est. 2008) will pose the questions: “What’s home? Whose home?” by hosting walks to various sites on the Kingsborough Campus–Urban Farm\, Beach\, and other locations–to consider how various other life forms make their homes in the environments that surround us. \nThe artists Maureen Connor and Tommy Mintz\, also of the Institute for Wishful Thinking\, will create a slide show that presents details about the exhibition and its events on campus-wide information monitors. The works and events both in and outside the gallery encourage visitors and students to apply the knowledge and insights learned through the arts and humanities to reconsider how they think about the housing insecurity that exists both on campus and in other Brooklyn neighborhoods. \nUnHomeless NYC is an experiment in community college teaching that connects the college with the local community. \nAccess\nThe exhibition will be in a hybrid form. The show and all events will be accessible through online after October 13th at: https://homelessnyc.commons.gc.cuny.edu/artists/ \nUrban Intervention\nDuring the exhibition\, there will be physical satellite events held in Manhattan and Queens. \nCOVID-19 Protocols\nWe will follow the CUNY Protocols for Spring 2021.

SUMMARY:Come Back Cities: a support group for Fathers with special needs children (first meeting)
DESCRIPTION:Come Back Cities: a support group for Fathers with special needs children is a safe space where Fathers could gather to share honest perspectives/experiences with each other; find fellowship and support with other Fathers raising special needs children; and participate in community art projects that honor the real experiences of Fathers with special needs children.  The goal is simple\, to create a space that works to empower Fathers in the lifelong process of raising our children with special needs.  In the Fall of 2021\, we will meet on a monthly basis via the Zoom video conferencing platform.  This will continue in the Winter/Spring of 2022 but we will also add more in-person community and art engagements where Fathers can come together.\n\nI am the Father of a 4 year old daughter who was diagnosed with Charge Syndrome and Deafblindness before she was 1.  Phoenix is my inspiration and I realize that I have a lot to open up about in raising a child with special needs.  I am extremely thankful for the community support from the New York Parent Association for Deafblind\, the Social Practice CUNY initiative and my MFA program at Brooklyn College – Performance & Interactive Media Arts.\n\nI am committed for life to my daughter\, my family and the collective empowerment of our families/communities.  Please consider joining me on Saturday\, Oct 16th\, 2021 @ 7:00pm est where Fathers can grab a beer or tea\, and talk!\n\nRSVP is required to ensure a safe space for all Fathers by emailing: jb.kilusan@gmail.com
