SUMMARY:How Do We Continue in Public?
DESCRIPTION:In this nightlong program\, we face the necessity of going on in an age of personal\, systemic\, ecological\, and international polycrises. Organized by Chloë Bass and Cory Tamler\, our six-hour\, open conversational gathering explores continuity through perspectives such as disability\, geologic time and the climate disaster\, gentrification\, internationalism/anti-nationalism\, and abolition. \nHow Do We Continue in Public? will take place during one of the longest nights of the year in the Northern Hemisphere\, a time of celebrations that relish in pushing sleep’s boundaries\, or that offer sources of strength in maintaining light. It’s a time for crossing thresholds\, making resolutions\, burning candles\, reading one more and one more and just one more poem together. Ways of celebrating (within) extended darkness insist that no matter what is happening around and within us\, endurance is essential: in action\, in inaction\, in thought\, in deed\, and in affect. \nDrawing on the ambivalences of the nocturnal season\, How Do We Continue in Public? asks how we can keep building our collective future from fragmented\, often questionable material. Invited facilitators will contribute texts and knowledge to a six-hour\, open conversation that guests can enter\, leave\, and return to on their own rhythms\, in a space full of comforts to see us through the long night. Join us to read\, rest\, and rediscover wonder through togetherness in uncertainty. \n\nFeaturing:\nTBA \nAccessibility:\nThe event will take place across two spaces in the same building: the Westbeth Community Room (6:30pm–10:30pm) and the Collapsable Hole (10:30pm–12:30am). The Community Room is wheelchair accessible; the Collapsable Hole is not. Limited seating will be available throughout both spaces.\nMore accessibility details will be shared soon. If you have specific accessibility questions\, please contact Cory and Chloë at spcuny@gmail.com. \n  \nBios\nOrganizer bios: \nChloë Bass is a multiform conceptual artist asking how the named and unnamed feelings we hold in common shape our civic society. Through installation\, conversation\, performance\, text\, sculpture\, and media-based practices\, her work uses daily life as a site of deep research to address scales of intimacy: where patterns hold and break as group sizes expand. She is currently working on Since feeling is first (2023 – ongoing)\, a series of works examining intimacy at the scale of the courtroom and the law. Her projects have appeared nationally and internationally\, including recent or upcoming projects with the Sharjah Architecture Triennial\, the ICA at VCU\, St. Louis Art Museum\, Creative Time\, the Buffalo AKG\, Skirball Cultural Center\, California African-American Museum / Art + Practice\, Henry Art Gallery\, The Pulitzer Arts Foundation\, The Studio Museum in Harlem\, Mass MoCA\, Kunsthalle Wilhelmshaven\, BAK basis voor actuele kunst\, The Kitchen\, and elsewhere. \nCory Tamler is an artist and dramaturg working across performance\, writing\, and social practice. Cory is a founding member of In Kinship Collective (Wabanaki/Maine)\, the author of A Permanent Parliament: Notes on Social Choreography (2022\, Laboratory for Social Choreography/Segal Center Publications)\, and a PhD candidate in Theatre and Performance at The Graduate Center\, CUNY. Growing up in a city of three rivers\, she has worked with bodies of water in Pittsburgh\, Maine\, Helsinki\, Palau\, Brandenburg\, and in Berlin\, co-designing and leading walks\, paddles\, and residencies with marine biologists\, anthropologists\, and with other artists across disciplines. She walks the Panke from its source area near Bernau to its two mouths in the center of Berlin. \n  \nGuest Co-Host Bios: \nTBA
