SUMMARY:Charting the Archive of Ancestral Histories and Place with artist Kamau Ware
DESCRIPTION:How do we build an inclusive archive? What are some archival practices and tools for affecting repair\, especially from the point of place? Join the conversation with Kamau Ware and Jennifer Jones\, as they consider archival research methodologies\, how they manifest in art practice\, and how these expanded histories may be used to create futures. \nKamau Ware develops narratives about African Diasporic history through photography\, films\, exhibitions\, and social practice. The Black Gotham Experience (BGX)\, an organization he founded in 2010\, utilizes art and walking tours to illustrate the impact of the African Diaspora in New York City. The Black Gotham Experience has been in residence in the Seaport District of Lower Manhattan since 2017\, serving as a gallery\, event space\, and visitor’s center for walks. \nJames Gallery Andrew W. Mellon Fellow and artist Jennifer Jones (Ph.D. Program in Art History and SPCUNY). Jones’ auto-ethnographic research is inspired by turn-of-the-century family photographs\, set in one of the first free Black settlements in NYC and one of the oldest continuously occupied settlements in the country. She is currently researching methods of research to highlight or unearth histories that are left out of traditional archives. \nRegistration is not required. \nCOVID-19/BUILDING ENTRY POLICY\nCUNY attendees must show proof of vaccination by presenting a valid CUNY Access Pass through the CLEARED4 health validation platform upon entry. Non-CUNY visitors will need to show proof of ID by presenting a valid government-issued photo document. See the full Building Entry Policy for more information.

SUMMARY:Citation Needed Book Launch
DESCRIPTION:Artist Ari Wolff and The 14th Street Y are thrilled to announce the debut of Citation Needed\, an experimental publishing initiative designed to support and distribute artist books made by young people. Joined by the authors and open to the public\, the book launch will be May 25th\, 5:00–6:30 pm\, on the rooftop of the 14th Street Y. The evening will feature 10+ original titles created by 3rd–5th graders\, authors meet-and-greet\, and interactive games. \nThe Citation Needed book launch is the culmination of a year-long collaboration between Ari Wolff and the 14th Street Y\, in partnership with Social Practice CUNY and Printed Matter / St Marks. Copies of students’ artist books will be on display and available for purchase at Printed Matter / St Marks. A set of the books will also have a permanent home in the Artist Book Collection at the Center for Book Arts\, as the first works by children to be added to the collection. \n“The most incredible part of this process has been watching our workspace come together; we started with three students\, now we are at thirteen\,” said Ari Wolff. “They’ve taught each other how to use the typewriters and copier and how to problem solve when they get stuck. I feel really lucky to be included in this creative process.” \nThis project was incubated as an after school workspace\, in which young people were invited to experiment with visual poetry\, xerography\, typewriting\, and book arts. Embracing a process of chance\, many of the works created in this class were inspired through accidents. After many months of creation\, editing\, printing\, and binding\, the authors and illustrators are excited to share their work. These artist books are an opportunity to honor young people’s inner worlds\, autonomy\, and ability to create meaningful work that challenges oppressive systems\, demands of coherence\, and the status quo. \n### \nAbout Ari Wolff\nAri Wolff is a multidisciplinary artist\, writer\, and educator whose practice explores language as a visual object. Ari’s work proposes alternate modes of reading and seeing through mark-making\, xerography\, sculpture\, text\, and book arts. For the last decade\, Ari has worked with schools and community-based organizations to create process-based projects that meet at the intersection of art and literacy. Ari’s work has appeared at Longwood Gallery\, Plaxall Gallery\, Collar Works\, the Foundry\, and in POETRY Magazine\, among other places. Ari holds an MFA in Studio Art and Social Practice program from Queens College. \nAbout The 14th Street Y\nThe 14th Street Y is a vibrant community center grounded in the belief that contemporary Jewish sensibilities can be a source of inspiration\, connection\, and learning for the individuals and families we serve throughout New York City’s East Village and beyond. With a health and wellness center\, childhood\, parenting and adult education and enrichment programs\, and an innovative arts and culture department\, the 14Y is committed to the development of the whole person and bettering people’s lives by strengthening family connections and building inclusive and sustainable communities.
