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.

SUMMARY:Book Launch with John Lehr
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of his publication The Island Position\, newly released by MACK books\, John Lehr will speak about the book and his practice with Peter Barberie\, The Brodsky Curator of Photographs\, Philadelphia Museum of Art. \n\nAs described by the publisher\, “The ‘Island Position’ is an advertising term that describes the premium position of an advertisement surrounded solely by editorial content. In The Island Position\, John Lehr explores the facades of American commercial spaces that are threatened by the emergence of e-commerce. In a rush to remain relevant\, storeowners emblazon their windows and walls with anything that will grab attention: tessellations of quick-fading ads\, floor-to-ceiling decals of fanned money or flowing hair\, haphazard product displays\, and desperate\, hand-scrawled invitations. They repaint\, renovate\, rebrand\, and rearrange\, gestures which point to the desires and anxieties of people who are being left behind as our thumbs lead us into the new economy. The work presents a turning point in our cultural landscape: the transition from a physical culture to a virtual one.” \n  \nThe book is 112 pages and includes a short story by George Saunders. It will be available for purchase at the launch.  \n\nJohn Lehr received a BFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art and an MFA from Yale University. His work is included in the permanent collections of the Denver Art Museum; Yale University Art Gallery\, New Haven\, CT; Metropolitan Museum of Art\, Morgan Library and Museum and Museum of Modern Art\, all New York; and Center for Creative Photography\, Tucson\, AZ. Lehr has been reviewed widely\, in publications including Artforum\, Art in America\, Artinfo\, Artnews\, The Brooklyn Rail\, Collector Daily\, The New Yorker\, New York Magazine\, The New York Times and The Washington Post. His recent publications include newflesh (Gnomic Book: New York\, 2019)\, PhotoWork: Forty Photographers on Process and Practice (Aperture: New York\, 2019)\, Photography is Magic (Aperture: New York\, 2015) and The Pure Products of America Go Crazy (Center for Creative Photography: Tuscon\, 2015). He is the author of El Camino Real (Roman Nvmerals: New York\, 2016) and The Island Position (MACK: London\, 2018). \n  \nPeter Barberie is the Brodsky Curator of Photographs\, Alfred Stieglitz Center\, at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. He holds a B.A. from the University of Connecticut\, Storrs and an M.A. and Ph.D. in the history of photography and modern art from Princeton University. Since 2008 he has organized more than twenty-five exhibitions\, including Long Light: Photographs by David Lebe (2019)\, the first survey devoted to the American photographer; WILD: Michael Nichols (2017)\, a survey of Nichols’ photography of the natural world creatively installed with art on similar themes from across the Museum’s collection; Paul Strand: Master of Modern Photography (2014)\, an in-depth retrospective of Strand’s photography and films that traveled to several European venues; and Zoe Strauss: Ten Years (2012)\, a mid-career survey of Strauss’s photography and her closely related efforts at public engagement.

SUMMARY:William Earle Williams: Party Pictures | Launch Party
DESCRIPTION:  \nPlease join us for a Launch Party at The Print Center! \nThe new monograph William Earle Williams: Party Pictures is dedicated to the artist’s acclaimed series of the same name. Williams’ insightful photographs taken in the 1970s and 80s revel in the details of a particular moment and reveal the unspoken cues of class\, race and gender. In Party Pictures\, you will find blue-blood doyennes in starched lace and society upstarts dripping with jewels alongside A-list celebrities and blue-collar wait staff. Williams employed his status as an artist to access otherwise inaccessible social events in Philadelphia\, such as highbrow charity galas\, as well as counter-culture costume parties and other gatherings. \nWilliam Earle Williams: Party Pictures was inspired by a 2011 exhibition of this work at The Print Center. Texts include an essay by The Print Center’s former Jensen Bryan Curator John Caperton\, connecting the “Party Pictures” to Williams’ other bodies of work\, an interview between Williams and Edith Newhall\, art critic for The Philadelphia Inquirer and ARTnews\, and an introduction by The Print Center’s Executive Director Elizabeth Spungen. \nWilliams is Professor of Fine Arts and Curator of Photography at Haverford College\, PA. His photographs have been exhibited widely\, including at the Cleveland Museum of Art\, Duke University\, Museum of Fine Arts Houston\, Smith College\, George Eastman House and National Gallery of Art. His work is in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art\, New York Public Library and Philadelphia Museum of Art. Williams has received individual artist fellowships from the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation\, Pennsylvania Council on the Arts and Pew Center for Arts & Heritage. \nParty Pictures is a fascinating record of the time\, touching on the history of photography\, the legacy of Philadelphia and the societal changes of the late 20th century. \n________________________________________________________________________________________________ \nWilliam Earle Williams PARTY PICTURES \nPublished by The Print Center\, Philadelphia\, PA (February 2020).

SUMMARY:Artist Talk with Miguel A. Aragón
DESCRIPTION:Aragón in the studio\, Photo: Xavier Minguella\nThe Print Center is pleased to partner with the Manhattan Graphics Center (MGC) to present an artist talk with Miguel A. Aragón\, joined by Ksenia Nouril\, our Jensen Bryan Curator\, and Sarah Kirk Hanley\, MGC’s Executive Director. \nAragón will talk about his career and themes related to his ongoing work\, which was exhibited in Miguel A. Aragón: Indices of Silence/Índices del silencio (January 17 – March 13\, 2020) at The Print Center. \nMiguel A. Aragón (born Ciudad Juárez\, México; lives Staten Island\, NY) is a printmaker whose work explores memory\, perception and loss in relation to the mass murders\, arrests and corruption associated with the war on drugs in and beyond his hometown. \nWorking in a sophisticated array of media and techniques on paper\, from physical alteration of photocopies to wood burned-embossing\, puncturing and chemical alteration\, Aragón’s process ties directly to his concept and subject matter. He alters and distorts enlarged photographs of victims using forceful reductive processes that evoke loss and pain. Aragón’s charred\, poked\, drilled and erased images directly correlate to the damage the ongoing violence has burned into the collective Mexican memory. \nAragón has a BFA from the University of Texas\, El Paso and an MFA from the University of Texas\, Austin. He is Assistant Professor in Printmaking\, College of Staten Island\, City University of New York. He has exhibited extensively nationally and internationally in solo and group exhibitions\, and has received numerous awards\, prizes and residencies. His work has been included in several surveys of contemporary printmaking and is held in private and public collections\, such as the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston; National Museum of Mexican Art\, Chicago; and Minneapolis Institute of Art. \nWatch the Talk:\n\n\n \n  \n\n \n\n \n\n  \n\n  \n

SUMMARY:The Making of William Earle Williams: Party Pictures
DESCRIPTION:Presented on Zoom*\nLimited to 40 guests \nA virtual conversation on the making of William Earle Williams: Party Pictures. Published in February\, this monograph contains over 70 stunning black-and-white photographs by Williams\, taken in the 1970s and ‘80s at social events in and around Philadelphia – from upper crust Main Line society balls to Henri David’s infamous Halloween parties. In these insightful images of blue-blooded doyennes\, society upstarts\, A-list celebrities and blue-collar wait staff\, Williams reveals the unspoken cues of class\, race and gender. \nWilliams will be joined by contributors John Caperton (The Print Center’s former Curator)\, Edith Newhall (art writer for The Philadelphia Inquirer and Artnews) and Elizabeth Spungen (The Print Center’s Executive Director)\, along with designer Laurie Churchman of Designlore.
