SUMMARY:Now Open: "Exquisite Corpse"
DESCRIPTION:The Exquisite Corpse (“Cadavre Exquis”) was a favorite Surrealist game from the 1920s onwards. The game involves multiple participants contributing to a single drawing. Traditionally\, participants create their section of the drawing and then cover it so the next person is ‘drawing blind.’ Once all participants have finished\, the drawing is unfolded and revealed. \nIn 2010\, we commissioned 92 artists of the region to produce 30 drawings\, to mark the 30th anniversary of the Paul Robeson Galleries. In the spirit of Paul Robeson\, we sought to promote free speech and creative expression\, reflecting a multitude of voices through our exhibitions\, programs\, and publications. The anniversary exhibition manifested Paul Robeson Galleries’ mission of inclusivity\, participation\, and community outreach\, and we are pleased to present a selection of the works. \nArtists: Perry Angelora\, Nakeya B\, Nina Lola Bacchuber\, Suzanne Kammin Baron\, Alaine Becker\, Lauren Simkin Berke\, Pat Brentano\, Michele Brody\, Karen Brummund\, Emanuele James Cacciatore\, Rodriguez Calero\, Robert Carioscia\, Megan Cedro\, Nancy Cohen\, Yvette Cohen\, Copie\, Laura Cuevas\, Patricia Dahlman\, Agnes DeBethune\, Paul Di Zefalo\, Molly Dilworth\, Marisa Dipaola\, Asya Dodina\, Nisha Drinkard\, Jordan Eagles\, Eileen Ferera\, David Rios Ferreira\, Sean Patrick Gallagher\, Jerry Gant\, Florencio Gelabert\, Irene Gennaro\, Beth Gilfilen\, Bonnie Gloris\, Dan Gluibizzi\, Jr\, Michelle Orsi Gordon\, Matt Louis Gosser\, Jaz Graf\, James Horner\, Jenny Kanzler\, Jen Keshka\, Ana Garces Kiley\, Sol Kjok\, Nick Kline\, Nadine LaFond\, Yen-Hua Lee\, Greg Leshe\, I-Ling Eleen Lin\, So Yoon Lym\, Mary Kate Maher\, China Marks\, Caitlin Masley\, Caroline Anne McAuliffe\, Anne Queeny McKeown\, Terina Nicole McKinney\, Darren McManus\, Meridith McNeal\, Lucia Warck Meister\, Emmy Mikelson\, Hannah Joanne Mishin\, Jason Mones\, Narciso Montero\, Brian Oakes\, Amy Ortiz\, Roberto Osti\, Courtnay Papy\, John A.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception for "Mirror Mirror"
DESCRIPTION:Paul Robeson Galleries at Express Newark is pleased to present\, Mirror Mirror\, an exhibition and publication featuring contemporary artists whose work could be classified as portraiture (in the broadest sense of the word). A portrait is most commonly recognized as a likeness of the face\, or upper part of the human form. \nParticipating artists: Manuel Acevedo\, Zoë Charlton\, Paolo Cirio\, David Antonio Cruz\, Kevin Darmanie\, E.V. Day\, Leah DeVun\, Nona Faustine\, Tatyana Fazlalizadeh\, Anne-Karin Furunes\, Phyllis Galembo\, Chitra Ganesh\, William Kentridge\, Riva Lehrer\, Ani Liu\, Jessamyn Lovell\, Hyphen-Labs\, Peggie Miller\, Anna Ogier-Bloomer\, Polixeni Papapetrou\, Patricia Piccinini\, Wendy Red Star\, Faith Ringgold\, Kevin Blythe Sampson\, María Verónica San Martín\, Leo Selvaggio\, Laura Splan\, Dread Scott\, Beat Streuli\, Arne Svenson\, Shoshanna Weinberger\, Deborah Willis\, Martha Wilson \nThe artworks challenge dominant paradigms about such things as gender\, race\, age\, societal norms\, technology\, and beauty. The emphasis on the exhibition is on provoking curiosity and discussion rather than providing a definitive definition of what constitutes a ‘portrait’. The diverse array of artists in have approached the subject of portraiture in a multitude of ways. Some have chosen to work with traditional\, realistic representations of the human face\, while others have used unconventional materials to create abstract references. Artists have looked to the past for inspiration – questioning who have created portraits and what agendas have been served through the process. Artists have looked to their immediate environment – friends family and strangers – to reexamine their world\, critiquing implicit assumptions and biases. Other visionary artists look forwards to create images of aspirational and inspirational potential future worlds.

SUMMARY:Opening Reception for "Seeking Asylum Resisting Detention\, NJ: States of Incarceration Newark"
DESCRIPTION:Project for Empty Space in collaboration with the Humanities Action Lab\, Newest Americans\, Rutgers University-Newark’s Graduate Program in Americans Studies\, and First Friends of NJ and NY presents States of Incarceration: Seeking Asylum\, Resisting Detention. This event includes the Newark premiere of the States of Incarceration exhibit in addition to three other components that examine the impact of immigrant detention in the Newark region. \nDr. Mary Rizzo and graduate student Dahlia Azran\, working with First Friends\, curated a collection of art created by detainees while in detention in North Jersey. Many of these pieces are composed of non-traditional materials such as candy wrappers\, toilet paper\, food-based ink\, and other scraps of utilitarian objects. In many cases\, discarded paraphernalia were some of the only materials available to detainees to use in creative endeavors. This portion of the exhibition demonstrates how detainees use art to resist the dehumanization of imprisonment\, seek refuge and find solace\, and express gratitude to the listeners who hear their stories. \nNewest Americans produced eight photographic portraits by founding partner Ed Kashi of people who were detained between 1996 and the present\, and conducted interviews with the subjects about their experience in detention and their lives since they were released. Kashi’s life-size portraits feature former detainees who firmly stand their ground even while their physical settings seem to be receding them\, as though they are there and not there\, at home and adrift\, uncertain of their place in America. These portraits are accompanied by recorded accounts from the detainees\, who phone visitors back when texted via cellphone. \nFinally\, another collection of artwork\, curated by Project for Empty Space’s Jasmine Wahi and Rebecca Pauline Jampol\, is comprised of pieces by four artists: Lizania Cruz\, Samer Fouad\, Jon Gomez\, and Ann J. Lewis (GILF). Each artists links the precariousness of people with an undocumented status in the United States to the larger threat of the carceral state.

SUMMARY:"1+1=3" /  Express Newark Brand Identity Workshop
DESCRIPTION:In March 2017 the Design Consortium was invited to participate in the Express Newark Grand Opening. For this exciting event we created a collaborative workshop for Opening participants that introduced visitors to the DC’s process and methodology\, and a small exhibition of the Express Newark Brand Identity design process. \nFollowing a quick presentation of our methodology\, we explained the “1+1=3” concept behind Express Newark (where 1+1 represent RU-N + the community)\, and made use of this notion to ask visitors what could “3” mean to them? \nIn the workshop\, we took visitors through a participatory design project. Participants filled out a Postcard indicating what “3” is for them\, and selecting the elements of the EN Brand Language which they wanted used for the visual expression of their message. \nVisitor’s responses to the exhibition’s prompts were then visually interpreted by DC design students Sarah Barcelos\, Anne Rochelle Bernal\, Andrea Cassar\, Tinhinane Khelifi\, Marsha Shnayder\, and Yosmany Michaca Vivar\, and showcased on the EN Instagram feed. During the Opening\, two large screens in the EN Lecture Hall displayed the Instagram feed as new Posters were being created and added in real time. \nThis workshop allowed us to gather input from community members that could inform ways in which Express Newark can engage with the community\, beyond the DC’s regular operations.
