SUMMARY:Thrice: Katy Kuchler\, Jessica Kartawich\, Victoria Jenkins
DESCRIPTION:Artists Katy Kuchler\, Jessica Kartawich and Victoria Jenkins take over 1205 Cruft St. \nJessica Kartawich: Act II “With love”\, is a curation of gifts. “All of the items in this room hold value not in what they are\, but in the way they were given and received. I am someone who places a high value on sentimentality and relationships and that extends to the physical representations of those things. The items on the walls are a few of the things that I’ve made throughout my life and given to those I care about—the things they’ve found important enough to keep. The items in the reliquary are a sampling of those that I have received throughout my life. The things in this room are two ends of a relationship\, and a connection that holds them together. There’s something to be said for the sentimental notion of holding onto objects that someone you love gave you.”–Jessica Kartawich \nVictoria Jenkins: Act III “Exploration” is named after her love for going new places and experiencing new things. “The pieces in the show were taken while in new places the first time I went there. These are the images I took with fresh eyes and what you see is what spoke to me. Each piece is made using a different medium\, printing in induvial ways\, edited differently\, but displayed all together as a collective whole to showcase the entirety of who I am as an artist and how my work speaks to me.”–Victoria Jenkins

SUMMARY:Carlos Rolón: 50 GRAND
DESCRIPTION:Photo: My Father’s Wishes No. 1\, 2014\, Wallpaper\, wood\, mirror\, 24kt gold leaf\, gold plated chains\, quartz crystals\, metal\, sunglasses and bronzed boxing gloves\nBefore language to Hemingway\, from the ancient Sumerians to the Greeks to the modern day\, there was the sport of boxing. With his exhibit 50 Grand\, Chicago-based artist Carlos Rolón/Dzine will present a dually charged exploration of boxing and domestic culture\, inspired by the tactility and performative qualities of boxing\, and its relationship to contemporary art at Tube Factory artspace\, 1125 Cruft St. Though the third iteration of the exhibit\, it will features a newly commissioned performative installation of live sanctioned Golden Gloves fights\, organized by Indy Boxing and Grappling and sponsored by Top Rank Productions. The exhibit is a nod to Ernest Hemmingway’s 50 Grand\, and like the story explores the relationship between courage and professionalism. \nWith this exhibit\, Rolón continues to mine his childhood memories. He invites the viewer to step into intimate scenes such as his family’s wood-paneled basement\, decorated with gold garlands and vintage beer placards\, where his father would watch prize fights like Roberto Durán V. Sugar Ray Leonard\, also known as the No Más Fight. This fight was particularly important for Rolon growing up as it allowed him to sit for short periods of time connecting with his father. \nRolón monumentalizes his blue-collar trophy den as the setting for his exhibition\, creating an homage not only to boxing culture\, but also to Puerto Rican immigration to America. \nWithin the exhibition is a newly commissioned performative installation of live Golden Glove fights organized by Indy Boxing and Grappling scheduled  June 2 and July 7\, 7-9 p.m. Fighters will wear robes designed by Rolón on each of the three scheduled fights then on display when the ring is inactive. \nWithin the main gallery is an installation of paintings and sculptural fabric works exuberant with color\, texture\, patterns\, and experiments in surface that create a visual dialogue between the physical charge of boxing\, the garments worn by the fighters\, and the artist’s own childhood home and upbringing as a first generation immigrant. Occupying the den is a series of custom-made trophies entitled Immigrants/Emigrants (Symbols and Mementos for the Nuyoricans) created\, as the artist states “for people like my father and mother who came to the U.S for a better life with dreams and aspirations that never quite materialized\, but still achieved success in other aspects of their life.” \nThe exhibit runs through July 22 open Monday-Friday 9 am-6 pm\, Saturdays 11-3 with extended evening hours every first Friday. \nMade possible by the Herbert Simon Family Fund\, Top Rank Productions\, The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts and Sun King Brewery \nAbout Carlos Rolón/Dzine (b. 1970\, Chicago\, IL) \nRolón attended Columbia College Chicago with a concentration in painting and drawing. Rolón has been recognized for his elaborately crafted paintings\, ornate sculptures and works that come out of American\, Latino and uniquely based subcultures. His studio practice investigates pop culture\, craft\, ritual\, beauty and its relationship to art history\, subculture\, appropriation and the institution. As a first-generation immigrant of Puerto Rican decent\, the artist creates objects questioning the concept of luxury and craft making to explore questions of identity\, integration and aspiration. His work also represents a detailed examination of curiosity and the process of art making and the cultures surrounding this. The work often addresses his biography by melding memory and the imaginary with carefully crafted\, hybrid works that are playfully situated between the contradictory worlds of conspicuous consumption and urban artifact. The work is at once melancholic\, excessive and exuberant\, poised somewhere between celebration and regret. Rolón illuminates how the masculine can become delicate and the how the baroque can be minimal. The artist often channels this approach with site-specific installation work\, vivid large-scale paintings and ornate sculptures in various materials expanding on ideas of self-reflection and imagined luxury. The works ultimately produce a hybrid language of social practice\, painting and sculpture inviting the viewer to engage in discourse and discussion.\nRolón has had solo exhibitions at The Dallas Contemporary\, Dallas; Bass Museum of Art\, Miami; Baltic Centre for Contemporary Art\, Gateshead\, UK; Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico\, San Juan\, Puerto Rico; and CAM Contemporary Art Museum\, St. Louis. His work has also been exhibited in group shows at The Museum of Contemporary Art\, Chicago; Marta Herford Museum\, Herford\, Germany; Museum Het Domein\, Sittard\, The Netherlands; Museum of Contemporary Art\, San Diego; Museo del Barrio\, New York and Centro Atlantico de Arte Moderno (CAAM)\, Canary Islands; Oakland University Art Gallery\, Michigan and Museo de Arte de Ponce\, Puerto Rico.\nIn 2007 Rolón represented Ukraine in the 52nd Venice Biennale. He is a recipient of the Joan Mitchell Foundation award for Painting and Sculpture. Rolón’s work is included in the following public collections: Bass Museum of Art\, Miami; Brooklyn Museum\, New York; City of Chicago Public Art Collection; Deagu Art Museum\, Deagu; Museo del Barrio\, New York; Museo de Arte de Ponce\, Puerto Rico; Museo de Arte de Puerto Rico\, San Juan; Museum Het Domein\, Sittard\, The Netherlands; Museum of Contemporary Art\, San Diego; Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art\, Kansas City; and Pinchuk Art Centre\, Kiev\, Ukraine\, among others. \nAbout Tube Factory artspace: Tube Factory is a 12\,000 square foot museum space curated based upon the themes of community\, place\, memory and mythology. We commission local\, regional\, national and international contemporary visual and musical artists\, borrow artifact-based exhibits and create community-sourced exhibits. \nA previously vacant former manufacturing building\, it is open Monday-Friday\, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. \nSaturday 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. \nShauta Marsh is chief curator at Tube Factory artspace\, curating and/or organized over 40 exhibitions including Inheritance: LaToya Ruby Frazier and Tony Buba\, Mound At Large: Trenton Doyle Hancock\, Fermata: Richard Mosse\, RCA: Scott Hocking\, Richard Mosse: Fermata\, Toyin Odutola\, Mari Evans:Carl Pope\, etc. Prior to working as a curator\, she wrote for various national and local publications.

SUMMARY:INOCENTE Documentary Screening
DESCRIPTION:Join us for dinner and a screening of the Oscar-award-winning documentary Inocente followed by a Q & A with the artist. You can learn more about the documentary at inocentedoc.com. \nMade possible by the Central Indiana Alliance Against Hate and The Clowes Fund Inc\, in partnership with Heartland Film\, who screened the film in 2016\,CHIP Indianapolis and the Immigrant Welcome Center. \nAbout the artist:\nInocente is a San Diego artist and activist. 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 visit originalinocenteart.com.\nChildren are very welcome to attend all programming over the course of the weekend. \nSay you’re coming on Facbeook: https://www.facebook.com/events/120965935139152/

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.
