SUMMARY:Bring in Da Funk\, Part I
DESCRIPTION:Class Schedule: Thursdays – September 12 & 19 | 7:30 – 9:00 PM \n“On the one”—James Brown often defined funk as a groove\, emphasizing the first beat\, using the ‘one-two-three-four’ downbeat. However\, as the Godfather of Soul would agree\, funk encompasses more than just a rhythm: it’s about freedom\, expression\, and dance. If not for funk\, disco would have never been born. How did the genre develop\, and who were the central figures in the history of funk? This two-session virtual course taught by Kit O’Toole will trace funk through its blues\, jazz\, soul\, New Orleans\, and R&B roots. The class will culminate in discussing\, among other funk pioneers\, three of the music’s most important figures: Brown\, Sly and the Family Stone\, and George Clinton. The course includes multimedia presentations and class discussions. \nZoom Link will be provided upon registration.

SUMMARY:I Wish That I Had Spoken Only of It All
DESCRIPTION:Sheryl Oring\, Performance of I Wish to Say | 11am-1pm | Rebecca Stafford Student Center Patio \nArtist Talk | 4:30-5:30pm | Great Hall Auditorium\nExhibition Opening Reception | 5:30-7:30pm | DiMattio Gallery\, Rechnitz Hall \nWith backgrounds in journalism and fine art\, Sheryl Oring began her ongoing project I Wish to Say in 2004 from a concern that many people’s voices were not being heard. She started to take dictation from the public about what they wanted to say to the (next) President. Dressed as a 1960s secretary with a typewriter\, she records whatever participants say onto a postcard\, making copies with carbon paper. During larger events\, a secretarial bank takes dictation. Oring mails the postcards to the White House and exhibits copies. To date she has typed over 4241 postcards. In this artist talk\, Oring will discuss I Wish to Say\, now in its 20th year\, alongside her other socially engaged art projects. \nThis talk is in connection with the exhibition I Wish That I Had Spoken Only of It All: 20 Years of Sheryl Oring’s I Wish to Say\, which is on display in Rechnitz Hall’s DiMattio Gallery for the Fall 2024 semester. A reception and performance of I Wish to Say in the DiMattio Gallery will follow this talk. \nAbout the Artist \nSheryl Oring examines critical social issues through projects that incorporate old and new media to tell stories\, examine public opinion\, and foster open exchange. Using tools typically employed by journalists (the camera\, the typewriter\, the pen\, the interview\, and the archive)\, she builds on her experience in her former profession to create installations\, performances\, artist books\, and internet-based works that address themes of citizenship\, free expression\, first amendment rights\, story-telling\, and activism through art. Oring received her MFA from the University of California at San Diego. She is currently a board member for the National Coalition Against Censorship. She has held several academic positions\, most recently serving as the Dean of the School of Art at University of the Arts in Philadelphia. \nOring has shown her work at the O1SJ Biennial; Bryant Park in Manhattan; the Brooklyn Public Library; and the Jewish Museum Berlin. She has also presented work at Art in Odd Places in New York; the Art Prospect festival in St. Petersburg\, Russia; Encuentro in São Paolo\, Brazil; and the International Symposium on Electronic Art in Dubai. She has completed public art commissions at the San Diego and Tampa International Airports. Collecting institutions include the Library of Congress; Museum of Modern Art; Tate Britain; Bibliothèque nationale de Luxembourg; and many others. \nFor more information\, see: https://www.sheryloring.org/\nOr contact Dr. Corey Dzenko\, cdzenko@monmouth.edu \nThis exhibition was made possible with funding from the Edna Wright Andrade Fund of the Philadelphia Foundation and from the Diversity Innovation Grant Program coordinated by the Office of the Provost and Intercultural Center at Monmouth University. Thank you also to ArtNOW\, the Helen Bennett McMurray Endowed Chair of Social Ethics\, and Monmouth University’s Department of Art and Design and Department of Curriculum and Instruction.

SUMMARY:Mike Richison’s Election Collection: 2004-2024
DESCRIPTION:Mike Richison’s Election Collection: 2004-2020 showcases 20 years of design and video art inspired by the presidential election cycle. Richison began working with this topic in 2004 when he created a short video loop of George W. Bush drinking water during the debates. This evolved into performances and interactive video projects that break down language into musical and abstract elements. \nThe culmination of these explorations is Electo Electro 2024\, an interactive installation that enables participants to produce techno-inspired beats using video clips of presidential candidates. This project combines iMacs\, iPads\, custom software\, and the housing from decommissioned Diebold AccuVote TS voting booths. Users can remix videos from political rallies and debates in a structured sixteen beat loop. An iPad-based touchscreen design parodies the system employed by the AccuVote\, a voting system that was difficult to audit and susceptible to hacking. \nAs a parody\, the format of Richison’s installation resembles a polling station\, while the branding and graphic elements of the project hearken back to vintage electronic devices. The AccuVote debuted in the early 2000s as the poster child of the Help America Vote Act. After its widespread adoption\, a group of researchers discovered a long list of vulnerabilities that can lead to stolen votes\, lost votes\, or a failure of the computer itself. The project deals with expectation\, failure\, and vulnerability \nOn the opening day and throughout the run of the exhibit\, Richison will perform and demonstrate this project. His goal is to “encourage users to examine media and become individuals who can control media\, rather than be controlled by it.” \nThis event is being held in conjuction with ArtNOW’s Mike Richison\, Electo Electro 2024 on October 4 at 10:15 AM.  \nAbout the artist\, Mike Richison: Mike Richison is a multimedia artist and an Associate Professor at Monmouth University\, where he teaches motion graphics. He employs a variety of approaches to artmaking\, including sculpture\, graphic design\, and interactive video. His work utilizes found objects\, such as turntables\, voting booths\, and scavenged video clips as well as the Max MSP Jitter programming environment. Richison has exhibited at Autonomous Cultural Centre Medika (Zagreb\, Croatia); Figment NYC and Art in Odd Places (New York); and Peters Valley School of Craft and Morris Museum (New Jersey). His projects have received attention in outlets such as Leonardo\, VICE\, FACT Magazine\, Hyperallergic\, WABC-TV Channel 7 News New York\, and The Washington Post. Before moving to New Jersey in 2007\, he lived in the Detroit\, MI\, area for several years.

SUMMARY:I Wish That I Had Spoken Only of It All: 20 Years of Sheryl Oring’s I Wish to Say
DESCRIPTION:Curated by Corey Dzenko\, Associate Professor of Art History\nWith backgrounds in journalism and fine art\, Sheryl Oring began her ongoing project I Wish to Say in 2004 from a concern that many people’s voices were not being heard. She started to take dictation from the public about what they wanted to say to the (next) President. Dressed as a 1960s secretary with a typewriter\, she records whatever participants say onto a postcard\, making copies with carbon paper. During larger events\, a secretarial bank takes dictation. Oring mails the postcards to the White House and exhibits copies. To date she has typed over 4241 postcards. \nFor this exhibition\, MU’s DiMattio Gallery will chronologically display hundreds of I Wish to Say postcards\, photographs\, and videos of performances\, along with larger prints of select postcard texts. A timeline on the wall will note the presidential elections that span Oring’s project. The empty wall space for 2024 will fill as MU student-typists add postcards they collect during the current election season. The other half of the gallery will showcase a selection of Oring’s related projects that all involve a question\, active listening\, and a typewriter for a secretary to record dictation. These include Collective Memory (September 2011)\, recorded memories of the 9-11 attacks; Travel Desk (2014)\, travel stories that were then carved into a wooden table now installed in the San Diego International Airport; and other artworks. \nMulti-part programming will include an artist’s talk to showcase Oring’s timely and inclusive artmaking practice. MU students will participate as typists at numerous live events throughout the exhibition’s duration. MU faculty from various disciplines will hold public teach-ins in the gallery about topics related to Oring’s project. Finally\, MU is collaborating with nearby Neptune and Long Branch school districts so that high school students can dictate their own postcards to the future president. As an educator\, Oring has involved younger constituencies\, empowering the next generation of participants in both US democracy and artmaking. \nOring performs I Wish to Say: Thursday\, September 19\, 2024\, 11am-1pm\, Rebecca Stafford Student Center Patio \nArtist talk: Thursday\, September 19\, 2024\, 4:30-5:30pm\, Great Hall Auditorium\nOpening Reception: Thursday\, September 19\, 2024\, 5:30-7:30pm\, DiMattio Gallery\, Rechnitz Hall \nAbout the Artist\nSheryl Oring examines critical social issues through projects that incorporate old and new media to tell stories\, examine public opinion\, and foster open exchange.

But when their fates tangle with those of Cecil Fielding and his local friend\, Dr. Aziz\, at the nearby Marabar Caves\, the community of Chandrapore is split wide open and everyone’s life—British and Indian alike—is inexorably altered. \nWhen you register you will be provided the meeting link to join the conversation.

SUMMARY:Joan Osborne + Crash Test Dummies
DESCRIPTION:Two incredible artists\, each performing their own set! Since she broke through over 25 years ago with the multi-platinum Relish and its touchstone mega-smash “One of Us\,” Joan Osborne the seven-time Grammy nominee has never played it safe. Osborne has followed her restless musical heart\, exploring a diverse range of genres: pop rock\, soul\, R&B\, blues\, roots rock\, gospel\, funk\, and country – all of which can be heard on her latest album Trouble and Strife\, along with the Western side of C&W and a touch of glam and disco. “For a lot of the record\, we were going for a ‘70s AM radio vibe\,” says Osborne. As for the lyrics\, the songs “are the most political I’ve ever written\,” she conveys of her first album of originals since 2014’s confessional Love and Hate. Osborne also produced Trouble and Strife\, primarily recorded in her basement studio in Brooklyn and released on the label she founded in 1991\, Womanly Hips. \n \n\nIn 2018\, 25 years after the release of their multi-Grammy nominated hit album “God Shuffled His Feet”\, The Crash Test Dummies hit the road for the first 8me in 20 years with an Anniversary Tour that spanned North America. The overwhelming recep8on led to a 30th Anniversary Tour in 2022 for their debut release “The Ghosts That Haunt Me” that touched down in the US\, UK\, Germany\, Austria\, the Netherlands\, Luxembourg\, and Canada. And the band is showing no signs of slowing down . . . \n“Touring again was not something we’d planned on\, but surprisingly – at least to me – there are lots of people who many years later\, s8ll want to come and hear us. The folks that are coming out to see these shows tell us their stories\, some of them very funny\, some very dark and all very personal. It’s very humbling\, being in the confidence of so many people” says lead singer-songwriter Brad Roberts\, “and it has inspired us to con8nue to tour and make music.” \nEarly 2023 will see the release a new\, original Crash Test Dummies single “Sacred Alphabet“ as they again hit the road in North America and Europe. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Puccini’s La Rondine
DESCRIPTION:Puccini’s bittersweet love story makes a rare Met appearance\, with soprano Angel Blue starring as the sophisticated French courtesan Magda\, opposite tenor Jonathan Tetelman in his company debut as Ruggero\, an idealistic young man who offers her an alternative to her life of excess. Maestro Speranza Scappucci conducts Nicolas Joël’s Art Deco–inspired staging\, which transports audiences from the heart of Parisian nightlife to a dreamy vision of the French Riviera. Soprano Emily Pogorelc and tenor Bekhzod Davronov—both making their Met debuts—complete the cast as Lisette and Prunier.
