SUMMARY:Artist Talk: Laura Anderson Barbata
DESCRIPTION:As a part of Laura Anderson Barbata’s work in Emerson Contemporary’s off the pedestal multimedia installation\, the artist will be giving a talk at the Media Art Gallery on September 18th\, from 5:00-6:00pm (doors open at 4:30 pm). \n\n\n\nBarbata’s inspiring performance work Indigo is a call to action in response to the violence and murder of Black persons at the hands of the police. A group of sixteen resplendent characters clad in hand-dyed fabrics\, woven details\, and ornate stitching\, many standing at the height of stilts\, powerfully demonstrate the textile art aspect of Barbata’s vision. Come celebrate off the pedestal\, a multimedia group exhibition featuring visual artists Laura Anderson Barbata\, New Red Order\, and Paula J. Wilson. This exhibition is on view in the Media Art Gallery at 25 Avery Street from August 1 – October 5\, 2024. The exhibition is free and open to the public Tuesday – Saturday\, 12-6 pm.  \n\n\n\nLaura Anderson Barbata\, Indigo\, 2017\n\n\n\nCurated by Distinguished Curator-in-Residence Leonie Bradbury and Curator of Special Projects Shana Dumont Garr\, off the pedestal speaks directly to the national phenomenon of the removal of Confederate and other racist monuments in the wake of the police murder of George Floyd. Although monuments are generally presented as permanent\, timeless\, and expressive of universal values\, this exhibition proposes that public memory could be more effectively addressed and activated through ephemeral expressions. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nNew Red Order’s large-scale video installation Culture Capture: Crimes Against Reality examines the contradictions inherent in a society built on both the longing for indigeneity and the violent erasure of Indigenous peoples. They base their critique on historical events\, and the pacing of the digitized imagery\, accompanied by skillful sound design\, transports viewers into their speculative reveries.  \n\n\n\nPaula J. Wilson’s performative video Living Monument and 2D wall work Thyself monumentalize Black female bodies through dramatic scale and bold gestures. Her work elevates embodied histories and reminds us that joy and celebration are crucial parts of resistance. This exhibition is part of Emerson Contemporary’s Regarding Monuments: Visualizing Hidden Histories\, a multi-year initiative that includes exhibitions centered on monuments\, several public art installations\, and a technology incubator.

SUMMARY:How to Commit Crimes Against Reality: ARTIST TALK with New Red Order
DESCRIPTION: *Doors open at 5:30pm \n\n\n\n“Do you want to realize your fullest potential? Be your truest self? Act with confidence? Attract abundance? Alleviate anxiety? Experience clarity? Know your purpose? Be the change you want to see? Be truly present? Experience real freedom? Change the world? Be a part of the solution? On some level\, we all want to feel this way\, but sometimes in our globalized\, capitalist\, settler-colonial society it feels impossible. Which is why the New Red Order is developing a dynamic system to help our accomplices achieve all of this and more. This sneak peek of our free introductory video\, Never Settle\, will tell you what you need to know to take control of your life today!” \n\n\n\nAs a part of New Red Order’s work in Emerson Contemporary’s off the pedestal multimedia installation\, the artist group will be conducting a workshop on September 27th\, from 2-3:30 pm at Emerson’s Media Art Gallery. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNew Red Order’s large-scale video installation Culture Capture: Crimes Against Reality examines the contradictions inherent in a society built on both the longing for indigeneity and the violent erasure of Indigenous peoples. They base their critique on historical events\, and the pacing of the digitized imagery\, accompanied by skillful sound design\, transports viewers into their speculative reveries.
