This is my visual poetry. The biggest challenge was grief, still is. I just remember one of Sky Hopinka's film about dislocation, it is not the same situation, but I interpreted what that meant to me. Dislocation can bring you closer to some people you love but at the same time takes you away from other people you love. Connecting through the internet doesn't feel quite real to me, so I feel their absence. The song is called "É Você" from Tribalistas.

Sky Hopinka: Saith the ghost, dream, oh, dream again, 2023. Inkjet print, etching. 39 3/4 x 39 3/4 in. from Subterranean Ceremonies  at the Frye Art Museum, Seattle, opening February 2024

Hier après la projection, Sky Hopinka explique qu’il est une personne calme et timide. Il ne le dit pas pour s’excuser mais pour assumer le point de vue de sa caméra loin du campement d’Oceti Sakowin à Standing Rock, *les tentes, les tipis, ce sont-là que les gens vivent...* Il n’est pas seulement calme et timide, il est rétif, avec fermeté, avec douceur. Ses films refusent l’explicitation et se déploient hors des structures conçues par et pour le monde blanc. Ou plutôt en en ignorant les attentes. Sky contrôle très précisément la communicabilité de son œuvre – la manière de répondre aux questions, de donner accès à de l’information - alors même que ses films ont cette beauté des agencements intuitifs et souples. Ce sont des films de contact et non d’accès. Il faut accepter la place donnée ici à notre position blanche, enfin tenue à l’écart, vitalement décentrée. Je me sens soulagée, comme si une rencontre était envisageable de cet endroit lacunaire et modeste, quasi analphabète mais attentif. Silencieux. O merci le silence… À la sortie P me confie ses soucis, il fait froid, il fait nuit, nous convenons en chuchotant sans nous plaindre mais le cœur lourd qu’il est difficile de s’aimer, nous enfants de cette destruction impériale. Ce matin, j’écoute la vive écrivaine Adania Shibli. Elle dit je crois quelque chose comme : la colonisation nous prive même de la possibilité d’aimer. Elle arme jusqu’aux intimités car pour endurer sa violence continue et inique, il faut serrer et durcir le cœur, éviter de ressentir. Alors oui le cercle familial tient. C’est ça que fait aussi l’État, resserrer la vie sur des bases de survie en quadrillant son déploiement au complet. Quadriller pour surveiller mais aussi pour resserrer (voire effacer, dans le cas de la guerre faite aux palestinien.nes) comme un tamis qui ne devrait plus rien laisser passer. *Comment dans ces conditions lutter pour ne pas devenir ce que ce système veut que nous soyons, des animaux humains*. Ce matin, je lis que le sénat français a voté sans contestation le projet de loi sur l’immigration du gouvernement Macron. Là aussi, tout va être plus dur, plus serré encore pour celleux qui ne peuvent pas montrer patte blanche. Je cite ici P qui en partage l’information : « l’automaticité de la naturalisation par le droit du sol ne sera plus acquise; le nombre d’années passées en France pour être éligible à la nationalité française sera doublé de 5 à 10 ans; le regroupement familial sera drastiquement limité, tout comme l’accueil des étudiant.es étranger.es; l’Aide médicale d’État supprimée; les personnes sans titres de séjour exclues du dispositif de l’asile; les délais de contestation d’une OQTF (Obligation de Quitter le Territoire Français) encore raccourcis et j’en passe ».

Week 7 - Reading Week

This Blog post is a little different to my normal weekly wrap ups because it's reading week, so I had no classes. I thought I would mention what I did instead.

I spent a lot of the week revising for a communication and practice test. I also traveled home to see my family and started my new job.

For Film Production workflow we had to read "Language of the Lens" a chapter from 'Cinematography:theory and practice: image making for directors and cinematographers" by Blain Brown and write a summary.

We also had to find a film on shortscapes and write a review. I picked "Kicking the Clouds" by Sky Hopinka and you can read my review here:

Since I didn't have class I made a point to watch filmmaking videos on YouTube instead. Here's some of the video's I watched :

Third Thursday events and exhibitions for September 21

The next Third Thursday — the monthly evening of art in Athens, Georgia — is scheduled for Thursday, September 21, from 6 to 9 p.m. All exhibitions are free and open to the public. This schedule and each venue’s location and hours of operation are available at 3thurs.org.

Georgia Museum of Art, University of Georgia

Yoga in the Galleries, 6 p.m. — Join us for a free yoga class surrounded by works of art in the galleries. Led by instructors from Five Points Yoga, this program is free and open to both beginner and experienced yogis. Sanitized mats are provided. Space is limited and spots are available on a first-come, first-served basis; tickets are available at the front desk starting at 5:15 p.m.

Student Night: “Southern/Modern,” 6 – 8 p.m. — Join the Georgia Museum of Art Student Association for refreshments, door prizes and themed activities to celebrate the latest exhibitions, including “Southern/Modern.” Student Night is generously sponsored by the UGA Parents Leadership Council.

On view:

“Southern/Modern” — This exhibition is the first project to survey comprehensively the rich array of paintings and works on paper created in the American South during the first half of the 20th century. Featuring more than 100 works of art drawn from public and private collections across the country, it brings together a generation’s worth of scholarship.

“Where Shadows Cross: Photography by Jim Fiscus” — Iconic image maker Jim Fiscus produces layered single-frame stories that comment on human experience. 

“Sky Hopinka: Lore” — Images of friends and landscapes are cut, fragmented and reassembled on an overhead projector as hands guide their shape and construction in this video work stemming from Hollis Frampton’s 1971 experimental film “Nostalgia.”

“In Dialogue: Power Couple: Pierre and Louise Daura in Paris” — Portraits of Joaquín Torres-García’s daughters by Pierre Daura and Louise Heron Blair.

“Decade of Tradition: Highlights from the Larry D. and Brenda A. Thompson Collection” — Selections from Larry and Brenda Thompson’s gift of works by African American artists.

“Power and Piety in 17th-Century Spanish Art” — Works by premiere Spanish baroque painters such as Francisco de Zurbarán, Bartolomé Murillo, Pedro Orrente and others, on loan from Bob Jones University Museum & Gallery.

The museum’s days of operation are Tuesday – Sunday. Reserve a free ticket and see our policies at https://georgiamuseum.org/visit/.

ATHICA: Athens Institute for Contemporary Art

ATHICA@675 Pulaski St., Suite 1200

6 – 8 p.m.: Artist-in-ATHICA sculptor Mickey Boyd hosts open studio hours for his installation in progress. Boyd’s work investigates the substructure of the contemporary built environment through replicating the forms writ large around us. In surreal facsimile constructions, he uses the same materials as those in our residential structures: dimensional lumber, drywall, insulation, found doors, and windows, calling our attention to the suffocating sameness that pervades our market-driven society.

ATHICA@CINÉ Gallery

“80s Skate Photography: J Grant Brittain” — Drawn from Brittain’s vast catalog of skate photography, the exhibition highlights images found in his monograph “Push.”

Lyndon House Arts Center

“Sanctuary: Works by Mary Engel and Cheryl Washburn” — This exhibition combines the work of two artists with a shared passion for animals. Though their media of choice differs greatly, these two artists are compassionate for and inspired by creatures of all kinds.

“The Fables, by Kristin Roberts” — Athens artist Kristin Roberts illustrates Aesop’s Fables, inspired by their combination of personal accountability, the laws of nature, and the tenuous border between life and death. 

The Athenaeum

“Paul Pfeiffer: Red Green Blue” — Often located in the heart of a city or campus, the sports stadium has the capacity to fortify national, regional or community-based models of identity. Inside, the spectator is bombarded with carefully orchestrated stimuli, immersed in a multi-sensory experience intended to incite an emotional response. In “Red Green Blue,” Paul Pfeiffer edits audio and visual recordings of the UGA Redcoat Marching Band, examining the mechanics of the performance through close-up footage of band members and their directors during and between periods of play.

The Classic Center

Galleries will be inaccessible due to an event in the gallery spaces.

tiny ATH gallery

“Serendipity” — Works painted by Jim Barsness and Jesse Blalock in tandem. It was serendipity when Jim Barsness and Jesse Blalock met the first time, and when Jesse’s Mustang broke down in front of Jim’s studio, it was fate. They started painting together, sharing their processes, styles and their joy of art and creating.

—

Third Thursday was established in 2012 to encourage attendance at Athens’ established art venues through coordination and co-promotion by the organizing entities.
