SUMMARY:BOOK LAUNCH & PANEL DISCUSSION | Marie Tomanova: Young American
DESCRIPTION:  \nBOOK LAUNCH & PANEL DISCUSSION\nMarie Tomanova: Young American \n  \nTuesday\, May 21. 2019 \n6:00pm Panel Discussion \n6:45pm Book Signing \n  \n  \nThe Print Center is pleased to host the Philadelphia launch for an exciting new book\, Marie Tomanova: Young American\, which has already received international attention. Tomanova will be joined in conversation by the book’s author Thomas Beachdel and Ksenia Nouril\, our Jensen Bryan Curator. They will discuss the impetus for and execution of the project\, as well as reflect on its meaning in our current political climate. \n  \n“Marie Tomanova’s debut monograph Young American celebrates an idea of an ‘America’ still rife with dreams and possibilities\, hope and freedom. As a Czech immigrant struggling in a new environment to belong\, to come to terms with her repressive past and her uncertain future\, the portraits taken between 2015 and 2018 in New York City visualize an America in which individuality is valued as uniqueness and not judged as a lack of sameness.” \n– Thomas Beachdel\, Art Historian\, City University of New York\, Hostos \n  \nMarie Tomanova (b. 1984\, Czechoslovakia) received a BFA from Masaryk University\, 2007 and an MFA from University of Technology\, Czech Republic\, 2010.

Gallery\, Czech Center New York\, Museum of Sex\, Untitled Space\, all New York; Orange County Center for Contemporary Art\, Santa Ana\, CA; Ars Gallery\, Prague; and Museum of Modern Art\, Tbilisi\, Georgia. Her work has been featured in publications\, including Artforum\, Calvert Journal\, Dazed\, Der Spiegel\, Forbes\, i-D\, Interview\, Paper\, Purple\, Sleek\, VICE and W Magazine. \n  \nMarie Tomanova: Young American\, 2019\, introduction by Ryan McGinley with an essay by Thomas Beachdel.

SUMMARY:Open Door at the Rail Park and Site/Sound
DESCRIPTION:Mockup of Moon Viewing Platform\, Courtesy of Site/Sound.\nJoin us for a walking tour of the Philadelphia Rail Park\, with artist Sarah McEneaney\, who was the driving force behind developing this shared urban space rising from the tracks and thoroughfares that were once the terminus of the mighty Reading Railroad. McEneaney now serves as the Vice Chair of the Rail Park’s Board of Directors. \nIn addition to touring the Rail Park\, we will view a number of temporary\, site-specific audio-visual installations from Site/Sound: Revealing the Rail Park. We will be joined by artist Matthew Suib\, who will talk with us about the installation Moon Viewing Platform\, which he created with Nadia Hironaka and Eugene Lew in conjunction with Mural Arts Philadelphia. \nMoon Viewing Platform is an interdisciplinary public installation that will transform an inhospitable and disused stretch of open-air land into a large-scale performance/gathering space featuring regular acts of caring\, a stage and building-sized nighttime video projections featuring an episodic series of short films. The garden/installation references the karesansui (Japanese dry landscape garden)\, as it becomes a set for a series of short videos and musical performances\, inviting audiences to enter another world through the senses and the imagination and provides the opportunity to engage in intimate commemorative gatherings that celebrate compassion\, creativity\, and community as essential components of human life. \nThe installation’s viewing sites are wheelchair accessible. \nOpen Door offers unique behind-the-scenes tours at Philadelphia’s most intriguing cultural sites. \nThis event is free and open to the public. RSVP is required. \nRSVP to Mikaela Hawk by October 14 at Mhawk@printcenter.org or 215.735.6090 x1

SUMMARY:Crack Up-Crack Down: Slavs and Tatars on Curating the 33rd Ljubljana Biennial of Graphic Arts
DESCRIPTION:Hinko Smrekar\, Slovenian Art Exhibition\, c. 1910. © Narodna galerija\, Ljubljana.\n  \nThe art collective Slavs and Tatars will speak about their curatorial debut Crack Up-Crack Down: 33rd Ljubljana Biennial of Graphic Arts (June 7 – September 29\, 2019)\, which brought together 30 international and regional artists to explore the graphic language of satire. Founded in 1955\, The Ljubljana Biennial of Graphic Arts is the oldest biennial dedicated to the medium. In their talk at The Print Center\, Slavs and Tatars will highlight how they used the exhibition as a medium to literally and strategically refocused “the graphic” for the twenty-first century. \n  \nAbout the Artists \nSlavs and Tatars is an internationally renowned art collective devoted to an area East of the former Berlin Wall and West of the Great Wall of China known as Eurasia. Since its inception in 2006\, the collective has shown a keen grasp of polemical issues in society\, clearing new paths for contemporary discourse via a wholly idiosyncratic form of knowledge production: including popular culture\, spiritual and esoteric traditions\, oral histories\, modern myths\, as well as scholarly research. The collective’s practice is based on three activities: exhibitions\, publications and lecture-performances. Their work has been the subject of solo exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art\, NY; Salt\, Istanbul; Vienna Secession\, Kunsthalle Zurich; Albertinum\, Dresden and Ujazdowski Centre for Contemporary Art\, Warsaw\, among others. Slavs and Tatars has published ten books to date\, including Wripped Scripped (Hatje Cantz\, 2018) on language politics as well as Molla Nasreddin (currently in its 2nd edition with I.B Tauris\, 2017)\, a translation of the legendary Azerbaijani satirical periodical. The collective’s focus on Eurasia challenges our often times one-dimensional way of seeing relationships between science\, religion\, power and identity. Their work is currently featured in the main exhibition “May You Live in Interesting Times\,” of the 58th Venice Biennale. Slavs and Tatars is represented by Tanya Bonakdar Gallery (NYC)\, Kraupa-Tuskany Zeidler (Berlin)\, Raster Gallery (Warsaw) and The Third Line (Dubai). \n  \nThis program is supported by John B. Hurford ’60 Center for the Arts and Humanities and Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery at Haverford College. \nAll of The Print Center’s Exhibitions and Programs are free and open to the public.
