Opening on June 2… It’s Pablo-matic: Picasso According to Hannah Gadsby.

Fifty years have passed since the death of artist and cultural icon, Pablo Picasso. He’s a mainstay of the modernist art historical canon and a household name whose artwork sells for record prices, but what does his legacy look like in 2023 through a contemporary lens? A critical lens? A feminist lens? 

Using their incisive humor, comedian Hannah Gadsby worked with our curators, Lisa Small and Catherine Morris, to consider Picasso’s work through the aforementioned lenses in It’s Pablo-matic. The exhibition includes nearly 100 works including pieces by Picasso and selections by twentieth- and twenty-first-century feminist artists such as Dindga McCannon, Betty Tompkins, and Kaleta Doolin. Highlighting Gadsby’s voice alongside those of many of the included artists, the exhibition reckons with complex questions around misogyny, creativity, the art-historical canon, and who gets to be a “genius.”

Critical/negative thoughts about Theodora Goss's The Extraordinary Adventures of the Athena Club under the cut

Like, I'm not going to snark about how the club is called the "Athena Club" (because feminist goddess, Athena is not, her whole point is that she protects Zeus' rule because goddess of order and all that), but while I would totally be down for an all-female team à la League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (which I hate mind you), there are so many things that show me that for some of the works included, I don't get the feeling the author really understands them?

Like, making Frankenstein's Monster the villain while Victor was a benevolent figure is... A Choice, and not the subversion Goss thinks it is (not that I dislike Justine, she's one of the club members I enjoyed more).

I liked the Mary/Diana parts well enough, although you could tell Goss really likes Sherlock Holmes (at least he's ACTUALLY in character) and he kind of ends up overwhelming that subplot more often than not. And boy was the Jekyll/Hyde resolution so unsatisfying lmao

The basic idea for Catherine Moreau is there, but she comes off as being the author's mouthpiece more often than not (when she doesn't remind us for the billionth time that she's a cat) and she gets annoying very quickly because she makes Goss's knowledge gaps about the Victorian era very... obvious lol

Beatrice Rappacini would be interesting if she wasn't a diluted version of Catherine Moreau in terms of personality - come on. Make her a tragic pre-Raphaelite muse. Have her accidentally kill a couple of artists.

I don't mind Van Helsing and Seward being villains (although it could have been better done, because I don't buy Van Helsing ever doing that to his own daughter, if he had one), but also making Jonathan a villain is not a subversion in the slightest. If Goss really wanted to go full feminist with this plotline, have Mina be the one going on adventures, kicking ass and taking names, while he's quite alright staying at home with Quincey and sometimes helping from a distance.

Irene Adler, Carmilla and Laura are quite good. No notes.

WHERE IN THE WORLD IS CHRISTINE DAAÉ? Or even if Goss wanted to go for the Lloyd Webber version rather than the Leroux version, Meg Giry would have been a pretty good fit.

Diana Hyde deduces you're trans and gets MORTALLY offended when everyone assumes she'd have outed you when she realized it. then calls herself a slur for gender-fluidity. you didn't even realize those existed in the 1890s. Mary tells her not to and she does it more. she has pretty much forgotten that you're there at this point

Justine Frankenstein starts a long, rambling meander about how a loving God makes no mistakes in His creation, and anyway the soul is without gender according to certain obscure 17th-century French philosophers, while giving you significant looks

Beatrice Rappacini invented plant-based HRT and nobody's quite sure how, but she is waiting for you to ask for it. otherwise it would be Unethical, you know. if you're a trans woman she would like to talk to you (with religious fervor) about Artistic Reform Dress

Catherine Moreau does not deduce that you're trans. gender is human nonsense, and tiresome, and you'll have to spell it out for her one way or another. if you're a trans woman she still thinks you should wear suits, because dresses are Impractical

Mary Jekyll doesn't care that you're trans but isn't at all sure about GNC presentations. it seems terribly attention-drawing, and an awful lot of trouble. if you're a trans woman, she would very much advocate not wearing a suit. this would lead to an argument with Catherine (and probably Beatrice, too- what's wrong with CONVENTIONAL ladies' attire?!)

sherlock holmes deduces you are trans before you've figured it out yourself and refers to you with those pronouns and then when you look confused is like "ah...had you not arrived at that conclusion yet?" and wafts away in his dressing gown to smoke seventeen pipes, leaving you in a gender crisis

Jason Om and Catherine Alcorn to host NSW's Honour Awards

New Post has been published on https://qnews.com.au/jason-om-and-catherine-alcorn-to-host-nsws-honour-awards/

Jason Om and Catherine Alcorn to host NSW's Honour Awards

ABC journalist Jason Om and cabaret superstar Catherine Alcorn have been named as the hosts of this year’s Honour Awards, celebrating dedication and achievement within the LGBTQIA+ community in NSW.

“I’m flattered and excited to be called into action again,” the Walkley-winning reporter with the ABC’s 730 program said.

“Hosting last year was a blast, and I always have a fun time at the Awards, so I couldn’t say no. It’s a nice feeling to be welcomed back.”

 Om said the Honour Awards provides the LGBTQIA+ community in NSW an opportunity to come together in the face of increasing hostility from wider society.

“I think this year has been tough for our community, we all felt it, so events like the Honour Awards are a chance for us to look back and reflect but also to pull together and find joy in what we have managed to achieve despite the odds,” Om said.

“Most of all it’s a celebration of who we are, and of those in our community who have made a difference.”

Headlining the awards is showbiz extraordinaire Catherine Alcorn.

A renowned entertainer, starring in shows including The Divine Miss Bette, Ladies Who Lunch, and The Summer of Judy, she will soon grace the Sydney Fringe Festival stage alongside iOTA and Verushka Darling in Bangers & Mash at the Emerald Room.   

“As always, I am so excited to be performing at the Honour Awards and to be part of this fabulous celebration of diversity and community,” Alcorn said.

Also on the line-up is DJ Kate Monroe, and Sydney drag star Charisma Belle, who will be hosting the Red Carpet.

The pair will also be joined a host of presenters comprising leading lights from within the community.

ACON CEO Nicolas Parkhill expressed his thanks to all the performers and artists taking part in the 2024 Honour Awards. 

“We are so grateful for the support of the many artists and performers that light up Honour each year, and this year’s line-up is full of fabulous and talented ACON friends and allies,” Parkhill said.

“Thank you to Jason, Catherine, Kate and Charisma and all the other entertainers for bringing so much joy, pizazz and flair to this year’s Honour Awards.

“Honour is all about celebrating our communities and raising much-needed funds for vital health initiatives to improve LGBTQ health. I look forward to see you at the 2024 Honour Awards.”

First held in 2007, the Honour Awards celebrate outstanding service and achievements within the LGBTQIA+ community in NSW. It’s also a fundraising event with a charity auction for ACON, NSW’s leading HIV and LGBTQ health organisation.

Over 400 guests will descend at Doltone House Hyde Park in Sydney on Wednesday 18 September to recognise the efforts of over 30 finalists across 10 categories.

Tickets are on sale now and early bird pricing closes on 31 August. Tickets are available at honourawards.com.au

Faculty receive promotions in the School of Architecture and Planning

Eleven faculty in the MIT School of Architecture and Planning have been recognized with promotions for their significant contributions to the school, effective July 1. Five faculty promotions are in the Department of Urban Studies and Planning; four are in the Department of Architecture; and two are in the program in Media Arts and Sciences.

“Whether architects, urbanists, historians, artists, economists, or aero-astro engineers, they represent our school at its best, in its breadth of inquiry and in its persistence to improve, by design, the relationship between human beings and their environment,” says Hashim Sarkis, dean of the School of Architecture and Planning. “Collectively, they add considerable strength to our faculty.”

Department of Architecture

Azra Akšamija has been promoted to full professor. An artist and architectural historian, she is the director of the Art, Culture, and Technology program. She also directs the Future Heritage Lab. Akšamija is the author of two books, and her artistic work has been exhibited at leading international venues, including the Generali Foundation and Secession in Vienna; Biennials in Venice, Liverpool, Valencia, and Manila; Manifesta 7; museums of contemporary art in Zagreb, Belgrade, and Ljubljana; Sculpture Center and Queens Museum of Art in New York; the Royal Academy of Arts London; and Design Festivals in Milan, Istanbul, Eindhoven, and Amman.

Brandon Clifford has been promoted to associate professor with tenure. Clifford is the director and co-founder of Matter Design, which leverages ancient construction techniques to shape transformative architectural visions. Known for animating megalithic sculptures, he pioneers “projective archaeology,” merging historical events with imaginary futures. Clifford’s speculative works redefine architectural practice, paving the way for new constructive opportunities.

Timothy Hyde has been promoted to full professor. Hyde is an historian of architecture whose research has expanded the understanding of the ways in which entanglements of architecture and law have shaped buildings and cities from the 18th century to the present. In numerous articles, and in books such as “Constitutional Modernism and Ugliness and Judgment,” he has explored buildings — and more recently building sites — in the Americas and in Europe to reveal the participation of architectural discourse in the legal formulation of social techniques of the modern city.  

Lawrence “Larry” Sass has been promoted to full professor. Sass is a designer and researcher in the Department of Architecture at MIT. He is a pioneer within the field of design and digital fabrication for low-cost housing. He discovered a low-cost method of single-family home construction using computation and digital fabrication. The impact of his research has been knowledge construction related to the idea that digital fabrication can automate construction. His methods reduce the number of steps in the production of a home. He was the first to publish the idea of digitally fabricated wooden housing in 2006 and exhibited his idea at the Museum of Modern Art in 2008.

Department of Urban Studies and Planning (DUSP)

devin michelle bunten has been promoted to associate professor. Bunten is a teacher, writer, and urban economic theorist. Her research uses economic theory and empirical tools to study a range of urban topics, including gentrification and neighborhood change, restrictive zoning, and the white supremacy at the root of American housing.

Catherine D’Ignazio has been promoted to associate professor. D’Ignazio is a scholar, artist/designer, and “hacker momma” who focuses on feminist technology, data literacy, and civic engagement. She is the director of the Data + Feminism Lab, which uses data and computational methods to work toward gender and racial justice, particularly as they relate to space and place.

Jeffrey Levine has been promoted to associate professor of the practice. Involved in land-use planning on the local and regional level for 25 years, Levine is interested in how to apply best practices in theory and research in local and municipal settings. His research interests are in the areas where public finance, private equity, and land-use planning intersect, as well as how transportation, housing, and sustainability interact in small- to mid-sized cities and regions.

Elisabeth Reynolds has been promoted to professor of the practice. Reynolds’s research is focused on systems of innovation, manufacturing and industrial competitiveness, and regional economic development. Her recent academic and applied work has focused on growing innovative companies to scale, digital technology adoption, and inclusive growth.

Andres Sevtsuk has been promoted to associate professor with tenure. Sevtsuk is the head of the City Design and Development Group in DUSP and director of the City Form Lab. His research focuses on public qualities of cities, and on making urban environments more walkable, sustainable, and equitable, bridging the fields of urban design, spatial analytics, and mobility research. He is the author of the Urban Network Analysis framework and software tools, used by researchers and practitioners around the world to model pedestrian activity in cities and to study coordinated land use and transportation development in ways that reduce transportation carbon emissions.

Program in Media Arts and Sciences

Kent Larson has been promoted to professor of the practice. Larson is an architect, director of City Science at the MIT Media Lab, and co-director of the Norman Foster Institute on Sustainable Cities based in Madrid. His research is focused on urban and architectural design, urban modeling and simulation, transformable micro-housing, living laboratories, ultralight autonomous mobility, and algorithmic dynamic zoning.

Danielle Wood has been promoted to associate professor. Wood is the founding director of the Space Enabled Research group, which seeks to advance justice in Earth’s complex systems using designs enabled by space. Prior to serving on the faculty at MIT, Wood held positions at NASA Headquarters, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Aerospace Corp., Johns Hopkins University, and the United Nations Office of Outer Space Affairs.

Time to share some of my Dislyte Beach designs, this post featuring some of the Shadow Decree. We got Anesidora, Catherine, Djoser, and Hyde here.

Anesidora brought her picnic box to the beach. Catherine has a huge hat to help keep the evil sun off of her pale complexion. Djoser wants people to eat but they all want junk food and he's mad about it. And Hyde realized he has to take his dog on a walk.

Who's your favorite from this and who are you hoping to see? I've drawn about half of the espers so far and I'll be finishing the set over the next few months!

dark academia book recommendations

The best books I (re-)read recently from best to 9/10:

Putin’s people (Catherine Belton) – don’t we all like analysing people who have power and money and how they got there?

Brief answers to the big questions (Stephen Hawking) – this one blew my goddamn mind, not that everyone didn’t know already but this man is just unreal in all ways possible and surprisingly witty as well

Da Vinci notebooks (there are a lot but I mean the one with this cover) – this one is especially for my fellow artists out there but also contains lessons about other things as well, and I just loved seeing how the mind of this genius worked

A personal matter (Kenzaburō Ōe) – might be disturbing or triggering to some as it does touch on delicate topics like alcoholism and centres around an internal moral debate about abandoning a newborn child who was born with an abnormality. Based loosely on the author’s own experience because he has a son who is a musical genius but also has a mental handicap.

Milkweed (Jerry Spinelli) – a heartbreaking story of a WWII concentration camp survivor, from what I understand not based on a real person but I’m not 100% sure so don’t quote me on that. Main character is adorable and following his mental growth was very interesting.

In cold blood (Truman Capote) – this is for my fellow gays. For those who were not aware, this book is actually a sort of reportage of real events Capote wrote about two criminals who murdered an entire family. Capote was gay as hell and it’s been speculated he fell in love with one of the criminals, Perry, as he narrates this character in a very specific manner that aims to invoke empathy in the reader by humanising him.

Something wicked this way comes (Ray Bradbury) – reminds me of Stephen King because of the ordinary setting where odd events take place, however not scary. Bradbury writes in a poetic manner that’s incredibly beautiful and captivating, and I’ve never come across any other author who writes in this way. Definitely an autumn staple.

Strange case of dr. Jekyll and mr. Hyde (Robert Louis Stevenson) – I don’t think I need to explain this one, but I just found this an interesting take on human nature.

All the light we cannot see (Anthony Doerr) – WWII, again. Equally heartbreaking but does not involve concentration camps, rather focuses on the war and horror outside of them.

(You will probably only appreciate my top 3 if you’re also nerd (I learned so much stuff from those books istg), if you’re more into novels and stories the rest will be more appealing to you instead.

Be it these books or your own favourites, happy reading!)
