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:Larissa Hammond: the / a mind  the b mind
DESCRIPTION:the/a mind the b mind\, is a fully commissioned exhibit featuring four large scale paintings\, one in collaboration with poet Ariana Reines. \nThe exhibit is several years in the making. “Through the years this show has evolved\, my body has been attacking itself through my immune system\,” says Hammond. “I went down many paths with both my art and physical body before I finally reached a turning point.” \nThe paintings happened after a series of conversations with Reines. “We spoke about the silence women carry\, what it really means and feels like to give consent\, communications that result from being mixed race and culture in America\, the importance of ownership and protection over one’s own body\, taking care\, how crucial it is to identify as sane\, and the importance of relating to other people with love and humor as a way through any kind of opposition\,” says Hammond. \nThe paintings themselves are an exploration in communication using a collective unconscious that Hammond built through her writings alongside conversations with Reines. “This collective unconscious is a combination of my matrilineal cultural heritage (Afro-Caribbean)\, past experiences\, and direct feedback from my body as I recovered from a brain injury\,” says Hammond. \nBorn in Indianapolis\, IN\, Larissa Hammond studied Architecture and Linguistics at the University of Cincinnati before earning her BA from Portland State University. In 2012\, Hammond earned her MFA from the Pacific Northwest College of Art + Oregon College of Art & Craft. Since graduating\, her thesis was purchased by conceptual artist Luis Camnitzer and she was named by Modern Painters Magazine as 1 of 25 Artists to Watch. Her first solo edition\, THE REDDENING\, was featured by Monograph Bookwerks and Triangular Press at the Codex International and LA Art Book Fairs. THE REDDENING was also purchased by the University of Iowa\, Indiana University\, and Oregon College of Art & Craft Rare / Artist Book Collections. \nBorn in Salem\, Massachusetts\, poet\, playwright\, and translator Ariana Reines earned a BA from Barnard College\, and completed graduate work at both Columbia University and the European Graduate School\, where she studied literature\, performance\, and philosophy. Her books of poetry include The Cow (2006)\, which won the Alberta Prize from Fence Books; Coeur de Lion (2007); and Mercury (2011). Her poems have been anthologized in Against Expression (2011) and Gurlesque (2010). Known for her interest in bodily experience\, the occult\, new media\, and the possibilities of the long or book-length form\, Reines has been described as “one of the crucial voices of her generation” by Michael Silverblatt on NPR’s Bookworm. \nMade possible by the Herbert Simon Family Foundation and Sun King Brewery.

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:Belladonna of Sadness
DESCRIPTION:One of the great lost masterpieces of Japanese animation\, never before officially released in the U.S.\, BELLADONNA OF SADNESS is a mad\, swirling\, psychedelic light-show of medieval tarot-card imagery with horned demons\, haunted forests and La Belle Dame Sans Merci with J.R.R. Tolkien influences. \nWe will be discussing this film\, the role witchcraft and superstition have played in gender roles throughout history\, all in relation to our exhibit Larissa Hammond: the/ a mind the b mind. \nThe last film in the Animerama trilogy produced by the godfather of Japanese anime & manga\, Osamu Tezuka and directed by his longtime collaborator Eiichi Yamamoto (ASTRO BOY and KIMBA THE WHITE LION)\, BELLADONNA unfolds as a series of spectacular still watercolor paintings that bleed and twist together. A young woman\, Jeanne (voiced by Aiko Nagayama) is assaulted by the local lord on her wedding night. To take revenge\, she makes a pact with the Devil himself (voiced by Tatsuya Nakadai\, from Akira Kurosawa’s RAN) who appears as a sprite and transforms her into a black-robed vision of madness and desire. \nExtremely transgressive\, BELLADONNA is fueled by a mind-blowing Japanese psych rock soundtrack by noted avant-garde jazz composer Masahiko Satoh. The film has been newly restored by Cinelicious Pics using the original 35 mm camera negative and sound elements and including over 8 minutes of surreal footage cut from the negative. On par with Rene Laloux’s FANTASTIC PLANET and Ralph Bakshi’s WIZARDS as an LSD-stoked 1970s head trip\, BELLADONNA marks a major rediscovery for animation fans. If Led Zeppelin had a favorite film\, this would be it. In other words\, Stairway to Hell.
