Green Worlds in Black and White: Feminist Readings of the 1930s Wood Engraving Revival
2024-10-01 18:00 - 19:00 (America/New_York) | DiMattio Gallery at Rechnitz Hall
Join us! 8th Annual Ink & Electricity: Advancing Liberal Learning in the Digital Age lecture
A talk by Kristin Bluemel, Ph.D.
The 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.

Co-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.

This 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.
This event is free and open to the public. Typists will be available so guests can dictate their own postcard to the US President.
For more information, please contact Dr. Corey Dzenko or Dr. Kristin Bluemel.

Cat Stevens, Tea for the Tillerman
2024-10-01 19:30 - 21:00 | The Great Hall Auditorium/Virtual, 400 Cedar Ave, West Long Branch, NJ, 07720, United States
It’s just like book club but with albums! With new advances in technology, the way we consume music through our devices, apps and on demand streaming services like Pandora, Spotify and iTunes is making the idea of the “album” as an art form extinct. Get together with other music enthusiasts on Tuesday nights to discuss some of the greatest records of all-time! Listen to the album beforehand and then come prepared to discuss. This event will feature Cat Stevens, Tea for the Tillerman.
This event is offered BOTH in person and via Zoom. Join us in person at the Great Hall Auditorium on the Campus of Monmouth University or join us via zoom. When you register you will be provided the ZOOM meeting link to join the conversation.
Free and open to the public, but registration is required.

Mike Richison, Electo Electro 2024
2024-10-04 10:15 - 11:25 | Rotary Ice House Gallery
Monmouth University’s Prof. Mike Richison (Graphic Design) will perform his Electo Electro 2024, updated for the 2024 election cycle. This interactive installation combines audience participation, music, news footage, and politics. The project allows participants to remix videos from political rallies, debates, and news in a structured sixteen beat loop. The touchscreen design is a parody of the system employed by the Accuvote, a voting system that is difficult to audit and susceptible to hacking. The parody continues into the format of the installation itself which will resemble a polling station.
Richison will introduce his project, perform, and then open up his event for discussion. If you cannot make it to Richison’s live performance, stop by the Ice House Gallery to see his project on display for the semester. For more on the project, see Richison’s discussion of it in the Journal of Network Music and Arts.
For more information, contact the co-chairs of ArtNOW, Prof. Amanda Stojanov at astojano@monmouth.edu or Prof. Dickie Cox at rcox@monmouth.edu

On October 5, an ensemble of leading lights take the stage for Offenbach’s fantastical final work, headlined by tenor Benjamin Bernheim in the title role of the tormented poet. Hoffmann’s trio of lovers are sung by soprano Erin Morley as the mechanical doll Olympia, soprano Pretty Yende as the plagued diva Antonia, and mezzo-soprano Clémentine Margaine as the Venetian seductress Giulietta. Marco Armiliato conducts Bartlett Sher’s evocative production, which also features bass-baritone Christian Van Horn as the Four Villains and mezzo-soprano Vasilisa Berzhanskaya in an important company debut as Hoffmann’s friend Nicklausse. This live cinema transmission is part of the Met’s award-winning Live in HD series, bringing opera to movie theaters across the globe.
