As a young child Inocente and her family immigrated to the US from Mexico. After her father’s arrest and deportation for domestic violence\, most of Inocente’s childhood was spent moving from one homeless shelter to the next. When she was 12 years old Inocente discovered the power of art\, and since then she has been able to use the arts as a vehicle to rise above many great life challenges. Despite her sometimes bleak surroundings\, her brightly colored art represents a world of survival\, love and hope. Her story is the subject of the Oscar-winning film “INOCENTE”\, which depicts her life and art at age 15. Inocente now supports herself as a professional artist and motivational speaker\, while also working as an after-school art teacher. For more information on Inocente please visitoriginalinocenteart.com. \nMade possible by the Central Indiana Alliance Against Hate and the The Clowes Fund Inc.

SUMMARY:Brick Street South Poetry Series: Sue Swartz
DESCRIPTION:Brick Street South Poetry Series features a poet and an open mic the third Thursday of every month.  June’s featured poet is Sue Swartz. \nSwartz is community organizer by training\, born and bred in New York\, and now lives happily in Bloomington\, Indiana. \n“Words. I’ve got a million of them. Some have been published by Ben Yehuda Press in We Who Desire. The poems in this volume use the text of the Torah (aka the 5 Books of Moses) as a starting point to explore themes of belief\, covenant\, liberation\, choice\, and yes — desire. \nIf you want a taste of what I have to say… here tis (below). I’m available for readings as well as teaching both adults & kids about the process of midrash/commentary-making.” \n\nON THE EIGHTH DAY \nAaron’s sons Nadav & Avihu offered before God strange fire  \nthat had not been commanded— \n\nOn the eighth day\, Alessandro Volta \nput metal coins on his tongue \nand prophesied sulfurous electricity. \nOn the eighth day\, Leucippus \nconsidered the true nature of the void\, \nTeller the true capacity of the sun. \nCurie was entranced by radium\, \nand Maxwell by luminous radiations. \nOn the eighth day\, there were isotopes\, \ncloud chambers\, alpha rays. \nLife was vaporized in a simple test \nof hydrogen. On that day outside \nplanned creation\, God peered \ninto the universe and was afraid for us— \nNoisy children snapping berries \noff a poisonous bush\, racing \ndown the street with pointy twigs— \n\nDidn’t I tell you to knock that off? \n\nAnd burned to the nub two sons of priestly \ninheritance. Before the whole assembly \nwere they offered up\, a soothing savor. \nObject lesson: this may you burn \nin your copper pan\, of this sinew and thigh \nmay you eat. But this intoxicating notion\, \nthis 4-legged swarming-thing— \nIt is polluted meat. Strange fire. \n\nYour blowtorch future. \n–Sue Swartz \n\nFree admission and parking. Beer and wine for purchase.

SUMMARY:Adrian Matejka-Presented by UIndy's Social Practice Art MA program and Etchings Press
DESCRIPTION:With the lean\, long jab and agile step of a boxer\, Adrian Matejka delivers this knockout dramatization of the larger-than-life life of heavyweight champion Jack Johnson. In dexterous interpolating voices\, and in forms ranging from enveloping sonnets to prose letters and interviews\, Johnson emerges as a scrappy\, hard-edged hero—troubled by his own demons but determined to win the “fight of the century\,” a fight that underscored the bitter realities of racism in America. These poems don’t pull no punches. \nPresented by UIndy’s Social Practice Art MA program and Etchings Press\, a student-run publisher. \nABOUT THE BOOK \nThe legendary Jack Johnson (1878–1946) was a true American creation. The child of emancipated slaves\, he overcame the violent segregationism of Jim Crow\, challenging white boxers—and white America—to become the first African-American heavyweight world champion. The Big Smoke\, Adrian Matejka’s third work of poetry\, follows the fighter’s journey from poverty to the most coveted title in sports through the multi-layered voices of Johnson and the white women he brazenly loved. Matejka’s book is part historic reclamation and part interrogation of Johnson’s complicated legacy\, one that often misremembers the magnetic man behind the myth. \nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nAdrian Matejka is the author of The Devil’s Garden (Alice James Books\, 2003) and Mixology (Penguin\, 2009). He is the recipient of two Illinois Arts Council Literary Awards\, a National Poetry Series Award\, the New York/New England Award\, and a fellowship from the Lannan Foundation. He teaches at Indiana University and lives in Bloomington with his wife\, Stacey Lynn Brown\, and their daughter.

SUMMARY:Brick Street South Poetry Series: Abegunde
DESCRIPTION:Abegunde is a Memory Keeper\, ancestral priest in the Yoruba Orisa tradition\, and a Reiki Master with a focus on the recovery and healing of ancestral memory from the Earth and human body. She chooses to forget that words and days have limits. Instead\, she chooses to remember – and live by – the words of a young Black woman in the 5th grade: Poetry can change the world.  As a result\, she spends her days and dreamtime chanting silenced memories into spoken histories. On the weekdays\, when she isn’t birthing new words out of sound and images\, she shapeshifts into a professor of African American and African Diaspora Studies and the founding director of The Graduate Mentoring Center at Indiana University. Her ongoing research and subsequent creations help us understand how unresolved ancestral emotions shape the lives of descendants of the Middle Passage and the links between ancestral wounding\, contemporary violence\, and illness and disease. She will read from ​her work-in-progress Learning to Eat the Dead: Juba\, USA\, ​a meditation on visiting Juba\, South Sudan\, living in the United States\, and poetic transparency. \nBrick Street South Poetry Series features a poet and an open mic the third Thursday of every month.  Free admission and parking. Beer and wine for purchase.

SUMMARY:Ramps\, Steps and Rails
DESCRIPTION:Ramps\, steps\, and rails are important things for homeowners and skateboarders alike to know how to make. At Bottom Level Tool Shop you can learn how to make these over a series of classes and be part of a small crew who’ll help neighbors in need. \nDuring the class you’ll build small skate and home items for Tube and elsewhere. By taking the class\, offered free in exchange for your help\, we’ll supply wood and hardware needed so you can also take what you make home for your own mini skate park or maybe to help around your house or the house of a neighbor of your choosing. \nThis class requires the prerequeisite Shop Safety class offered in the morning before this class. Shop safety usually has a cost but this is waived\, also\, with your commitment to help with this summer community home repair project we’re piloting at Big Car Collaborative with support from INHP.

SUMMARY:LaShawnda Crowe Storm with Maria E Hamilton Abegunde: Keeper of My Mothers’ Dreams
DESCRIPTION:November 3-January 20 \nOpen every first Friday 6-10 p.m. \n\nKeeper of My Mothers’ Dreams expands the dialogues began in Crowe Storm’s works Her Name is Laura Nelson and Be/Coming with newly commissioned pieces: Poems\, Origin and Sister Song.\n\n\n\nOn the South wall of the main gallery is Her Name Is Laura Nelson. It is Quilt I from The Lynch Quilts Project Series which explores the history and ramifications of racial violence in America\, particularly lynching\, through the textile tradition of quilting. Crowe Storm started the series 15 years ago. Her Name is Laura Nelson explores the intersection of lynching and gender violence. \n\n\n\nIn the North section of the main gallery is Be/Coming\, the first in the series Masquerade Americana\, a collaboration between Crowe Storm and Maria Eliza Hamilton Abegunde that began in 2007. This piece is rooted in the various masquerade traditions found throughout Africa\, particularly Gelede (Gail-lah-day) and Egungun (Ay-goon-goon) of the Yoruba in Nigeria. Gelede celebrates female mystical power\, while Egungun honors one’s ancestors.The Masquerade Americana series addresses historical and contemporary social ills and in/justices rooted in the American context from a Black / African-American lens.\n\n\n\nOrigin\, in the west section of the main gallery\, is a bronze casting of the pelvic bone of an unknown African American woman. \n\n\n \n\n\nOn the East wall is the poetry of Abegunde. The poems Be/Coming\, Laura Nelson Speaks\, Origin\, and Birth Song were written specifically for the ongoing collaboration with Crowe Storm. The remaining poems\, The Answer to Your Question and Supplication\, are earlier works that call attention to the historical erasure and disappearance of young Black girls and women. Supplication is also a prayer to the Yoruba deity Osun that combines elements of oriki for Osun (praise names) with a plea for guidance to find\, in this case\, Tionda and Diamond Bradley who were reported disappeared/missing on July 6\, 2001.\n\n\n \n\n\nThe writings and libation bowl add new layers to the experiences of remembering words and performances that examine how the abuse\, loss\, and commodification of one’s womanhood and humanity can be transformed through processes that lead to healing and the rebirthing and re/making of identity. \n\n\n \n\n\nIn the installation room is Sister Song\, grounded within the context of community co-creation efforts\, the bronze womb shapes were given to selected artists to complete their transformation. \n\n\n \n\n\nEach piece exhibited in Keeper of My Mothers’ Dreams was developed with the hands of many.\n\n\nAbout Lashawnda Crowe Storm \nIf life were a photo\, then Crowe Storm’s artwork would be its negative\, seeking to explore those aspects in our society that have been ignored or forgotten such as history\, lynching\, misogyny\, slavery and suicide. Her art is a form of social work and she uses it to open doorways to community dialogue\, which is the first step to healing\, which in itself leads to wider social change. Through her work\, a voice is given to the marginalized people and disregarded aspects of our society. \nAbout Maria E Hamilton Abegunde \nMaria E Hamilton Abegunde is a Memory Keeper\, poet\, ancestral priest in the Yoruba Orisa tradition\, and a Reiki Master. Her research and creative work respectfully approach the Earth and human bodies as sites of memory\, and always with the understanding that memory never dies\, is subversive\, and can be recovered to transform transgenerational trauma and pain into peace and power. She is a visiting lecturer in the department of African American and African Diaspora Studies and the founding director of The Graduate Mentoring Center at Indiana University. \nA series of events accompany the exhibition:\nDecember 3\, 3-5 p.m. \nBeComing Whole: It Takes a Village to Heal a Community \nJoin artists featured in Sister Song for a discussion about how the project developed and what it means to become whole through the process of making art that represents their own births. The artists will share why they accepted the invitation to participate\, why they selected the “womb” that they did\, how and why they selected the materials\, what they learned about themselves in the process\, and what was the most transformative part of this creation. \nDecember 9\, 3-5 p.m. \n\nJanuary 13\, 3-5 p.m. \nAfriye Wekandodis: Telling Our Stories to Be Free \nSongs for Laura Nelson (Performance) \nSinger\, performer and Sister Song womb-maker\, Afriye We-kandodis will present a two-part performance examining the themes present in Keeper of My Mothers’ Dreams. Sista Yo Mama U n Me Too shares the story of violation then reclamation and transformation as an enslaved woman grapples rape and how she spoke life into the spirit of a fellow tribesman who was used to violate her.   Through the performance\,I Am Laura Nelson she’ll bring voice and life to Laura Nelson. \n\nJanuary 20\, 3-5pm \nKeeping our Mothers’ Dreams Alive \nFor many of us\, our mothers never spoke their dreams out loud. Sometimes\, they did not dare dream them. We\, however\, are the ones they waited and are waiting for. We also have our own dreams. The power of dreamtime and the word are this: to remind us who we are\, to soothe our souls\, and to create futures that break away from the past but do not forget them. The exhibition will end with poetry readings\, spoken word performances\, and ritual to remember and give gratitude to all our Mothers’ Dreams. \nThis exhibit was made possible by the Herbert Simon Family Foundation\, Alan Mills and Sun King \nPictured: LaShawnda Crowe Storm\,”Untitled”(2017)\, bronze casting of pelvic bone\nImage courtesy of Polina Osherov and the artist.

SUMMARY:Audrey Barcio: Under Influence
DESCRIPTION:Heritage is a pressing concern to our generation. Should we allow the past to influence us—are we bound to ancient tools\, materials and techniques? Or should we endeavor to make work that is specific to our time\, embracing technology and its untested\, ambivalent ramifications? If we do\, are we at risk of becoming complicit in a catastrophe\, or a pale reflection of something fleeting? \nIn her solo exhibition Under Influence at Tube Factory Artspace in Indianapolis\, Audrey Barcio explores these questions in a new series of paintings that examines where the heritage of Modernism intersects with the tools of the Virtual Industrial Age. Her starting point for this body of work is the iconic grey and white checkerboard pattern recognized by contemporary digital designers as a symbol for emptiness waiting to be filled. Transforming that virtual nothingness into concrete form\, Barcio employs it to empower interpretations of the iconographic legacy of our Modernist forbearers. \nThis is a vision of an aesthetic symbology as futuristic as it is rooted in the constructed languages of the past: Suprematism\, Geometric Abstraction\, Futurism\, Orphism\, Color Field Painting\, Post-painterly Abstraction\, Minimalism. The work transcends the accepted cultural raison d’être of this century—the cult of self—to evoke instead the universal. \nUnder Influence speaks to something ancestral\, universal\, infinite\, and essential. It is a conversation arising not from coteries but from the unifying elements of a common world: shape\, color\, line\, form\, material\, surface\, and the infinite potentialities that arise from relationships. \nCommission of these new works were made possible by the Herbert Simon Family Foundation.\nRead more about Barcio in this Pattern Magazine story. \nAudrey Barcio received her BA from Herron School of Art and Design and her MFA from the University of Nevada\, Las Vegas.
