SUMMARY:Green Worlds in Black and White: Feminist Readings of the 1930s Wood Engraving Revival
DESCRIPTION:Join us! 8th Annual Ink & Electricity: Advancing Liberal Learning in the Digital Age lecture \nA talk by Kristin Bluemel\, Ph.D. \nThe enchanting black and white pictures featured in this talk tell a forgotten feminist tale of personal freedom and commercial success achieved by women artists whose creations of wood\, ink\, and paper brought joy and beauty into the dark days of the Great Depression and World War I. \n\n\nCo-sponsored by the Wayne D. McMurray-Helen Bennett Endowed Chair in the Humanities at Monmouth University. This talk is in connection with the I Wish to Say Teach-In Series and the exhibition of Sheryl Oring’s social practice art projects on display in the DiMattio Gallery.\n\nThis fall the DiMattio Gallery is hosting an exhibition of Sheryl Oring’s “I Wish to Say” and related works. Since 2004\, Oring has traveled with her typewriter\, asking the public to dictate and mail postcards to the US President. To date\, she has typed over 4241 postcards in her attempt to use art as a catalyst for social change. Part of our exhibition programming will be a teach-in series from Monmouth University faculty\, including Bluemel\, about topics related to themes that intersect with Oring’s project as art reaches across disciplinary bounds. \nThis event is free and open to the public. Typists will be available so guests can dictate their own postcard to the US President. \nFor more information\, please contact Dr. Corey Dzenko or Dr. Kristin Bluemel.

SUMMARY:Hurricanes of Color
DESCRIPTION:Michael Frankel\, the author of Hurricanes of Color and Monmouth University alumnus will be giving an artist’s talk and book-signing hosted by Prof. Ken Womack and Prof. Joe Rapolla. \nHurricanes of Color \nIn 1964\, fifteen-year-old Mike Frankel found himself among professional photojournalists covering a Beatles concert during the band’s first tour in the United States. A few years later\, he was a regular photographer at the Fillmore East\, a storied venue in classic rock. And in 1969\, he was onstage at Woodstock\, documenting one of the most important events in American music history. \nFeaturing Frankel’s stunning photographs of nearly every major rock figure from the 1960s and ’70s―including Led Zeppelin\, Pink Floyd\, the Rolling Stones\, Janis Joplin\, and the Grateful Dead―as well as many unpublished images of the Beatles\, Hurricanes ofColor chronicles an extraordinary moment. Frankel\, who was for a time a personal photographer for Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna\, developed an innovative style―one that layered images with multiple exposures to capture the spirit of the music of the era and the experience of listening to the bands live. \nA must-have for fans of classic rock\, this is a spectacular and profound collection of photography that complements the music of the world’s biggest performers.

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.

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: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.

SUMMARY:Archaeology and Enslavement in New Jersey (Credit Hours for History Teachers)
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Adam Heinrich\, Ph.D. \nThis two-hour session will look at the archaeological evidence for the lives of enslaved people in New Jersey of both African and Native American descent. The roles and lives of enslaved people have frequently been overlooked in New Jersey histories and at historical sites. Over the last several years\, archaeological investigations have been able to identify the presence of enslaved people through the evidence of their lives and culture. This has included how they coped with their lives held in bondage and maintained traditional lifeways. Artifacts discussed will include grave markers\, food remains\, and spiritual items. Images used during the session will be available to the attendees for use in their classrooms. \nRelevant NJDOE Social Studies Standards: 6.1.12.HistoryCA.2.a Research multiple perspectives to explain the struggle to create an American identity; and 6.1.12.HistoryUP.2.a Using primary sources\, describe the perspectives of African Americans\, Native Americans\, and women during the American Revolution and assess the contributions of each group on the outcome of the war.

SUMMARY:E. M. Forster’s A Passage to India
DESCRIPTION:Join us for Tuesday Night Book Club! Hosted by Monmouth University’s Ken Womack. This month’s novel is E. M. Forster’s A Passage to India. A Passage to India hauntingly evokes India at the peak of the British colonial era\, complete with the racial tension that underscores every aspect of daily life. Into this setting\, Forster introduces Adela Quested and Mrs. Moor\, British visitors to Chandrapore who\, despite their strong ties to the elusive colonial community there\, are eager for a more authentic taste of India. 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.
