SUMMARY:Aurora Levins Morales: Gulf South Poetry and Ecology
DESCRIPTION:New Orleans Center for the Gulf South welcomes you to Tulane’s Climate Action Week with a Thursday poetry reading from poet-scholar Aurora Levins Morales. \nLevins Morales calls us to face the urgency and danger of the present with imagination and hope\, making the time and space to dream together\, dream big\, and set a real course toward our dreaming. She will be reading from and discussing Silt\, a prose poetry collection exploring the natural and social histories of the Mississippi River through Caribbean Jewish eyes\, through the stories of her own body and through her vision of ecological justice\, a global culture of reciprocity\, generosity and inclusion. \n“This is the ceremony of our cells\, each one a sip of water\, a tiny ocean. So let the water in you call to the water in me. Let the water in our veins call to the water in the world\, one rainstorm gathering over the dry paararllaces\, ready to pour down quenching relief\, for we are all of us thirsty. As we gather ourselves in prayerful determination on the edges of endangered streams\, look out over the peril and grief of dead zones that should teem with life\, let the water in me call to the water in you\, and from the deepest waters of our beings all of us feel the pull of a single moon bright with reflected light\, and all move together\, ebb tide and flow\, knowing that the rivers are ancient\, but this moment is new.” \nVisit her website: http://www.auroralevinsmorales.com/. \nThis event is free and open to the public. For more information\, please contact Regina Cairns at rcairns@tulane.edu or 504-314-2854.

SUMMARY:Ash Arder: Work in Progress
DESCRIPTION:Current Adapatations Resident Ash Arder welcomes members of the community to experience a work-in-progress series of interactive sound sculptures reflecting on the shared histories and tactile experiences of farmers and farm machines. The works are inspired by historic and contemporary technical documentation of agricultural processes and innovation. The works further Ash’s curiosity around what can happen when the experiences of plants and machines are taken into consideration when reflecting on the relationship between the agricultural industry and western culture at large. \nAsh Arder (b. 1988\, Flint\, Michigan) is a transdisciplinary artist whose research-based approach works to expose\, deconstruct or reconfigure physical and conceptual systems – especially those relating to ecology. Arder’s highly flexible practice examines interspecies relations and natural phenomena primarily through historical and popular culture lenses. \nStatement: At the very core\, my creative practice is concerned with the idea of relation. Relation is\, for me\, a basic tenet for understanding how collaboration between ideas and entities might occur. It also acts as a guide for interpreting and making tangible my own patterns of thought and logic. I use the idea of speculative collaboration as a framework to expose\, deconstruct or reconfigure physical and conceptual systems – especially those relating to ecology. \nThese systems and “exercises” take on forms including installation\, sculpture\, sound\, drawing\, electronics\, video and performance. Each ponders the role of agency\, both active and passive\, in co-creating an event or phenomenon. I am interested in complicating viewers’ own understanding of their proximity to and participation in the systems and cycles reflected in my work and subsequently at larger societal and ecological scales. These complications or moments of tension between living things\, objects and space serve as a catalyst for interrogating the very conditions responsible for the glitch. My work and research probe historical events and pop culture (future history) for insight into what I think of as “relational glitches\,” or ruptures in empathy.

SUMMARY:Deadline to Apply - FATHOM: Volume I\, Lead Residency
DESCRIPTION:A Studio in the Woods envisions an open call to select a local artist to work with Tulane biologists to raise awareness about lead contamination in New Orleans with themes related to both public health and the wellbeing of all living creatures. As in many older cities around the world\, lead contamination represents an important health risk to both human and animal inhabitants of New Orleans. Ongoing work by Dr. Jordan Karubian and colleagues suggests that high levels of lead in some New Orleans neighborhoods may impact the behavior and reproductive success of urban songbirds. In this way\, these songbirds may serve as “canaries in the coal mine” for the risks associated with lead contamination\, with the potential to raise awareness about this important but sometimes under-appreciated issue. \nThe artist will collaborate closely with scientists from Karubian Lab and staff at A Studio in the Woods to understand the effects of lead and develop provocative community engagement using the shared platform of Mardi Gras as a vehicle to reach a broad swath of local residents. The program period will be September 2019-April 2020\, and the artist should plan to be in residence at A Studio in the Woods for three weeks during this time. FATHOM: Volume I\, Lead is a pilot effort between A Studio in the Woods\, Karubian Lab\, and ByWater Institute to support and examine the real-world impact of art/science collaborations. If successful\, this project has the potential to extend an additional year. ByWater Institute researchers will study the collaborative process between the artist and scientists through interviews and observations\, and will evaluate the project’s impact on participants through surveys. \nAPPLY HERE

SUMMARY:Artist Salon with Margaret Pearce
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, October 10\, 2019\, 6:30pm at A Studio in the Woods\, join us for a potluck and to learn more about our newest Adaptations Resident\, Margaret Pearce. \nWhile in residence\, Margaret Pearce (Citizen Band Potawatomi)\, will continue research for “Mississippi Dialogues\,” a three-year project to map public opinion about flooding into an Indigenized map of the Mississippi River. She will use her residency to be in proximity to Indigenous communities of the Delta while researching their place-worlds with their permission\, and for sustained focus on translating those worlds into the design and layout of the panels. Margaret Pearce is a cartographer and writer based in Rockland\, Maine. She sees cartographic language as a powerful mode of graphic expression complementary to writing and speech\, where narratives and dialogues across cultures and between viewpoints can be explored and new possibilities given room to emerge and flower\, in particular for the expression of Indigenous geographies. \nThis is a potluck\, we will provide the main dish but ask that everyone pitch in a little something – drinks\, salad\, appetizer\, dessert… \nThe event is free\, but please RSVP here.

This installation was created in partnership with A Studio in the Woods\, through an artist residency.

SUMMARY:Artist Salon with Ladee Hubbard
DESCRIPTION:Monday\, December 9\, 2019\, 6:30pm at A Studio in the Woods\, join us for a potluck and to learn more about author Ladee Hubbard. \nLadee Hubbard is the second Gulf South Writer in the Woods\, an appointment spanning 18 months in 2019 and 2020 which includes a total of six weeks in residence at A Studio in the Woods\, public engagement programming\, and research support. During the residency\, Hubbard will be revising her novel\, The Rib King. Spanning a ten-year period between 1917 and 1927\, The Rib King shares its name with a fictitious brand of barbecue sauce that August Sitwell\, an African-American groundskeeper\, creates with the help of a cook\, Mamie Clark. The sauce receives national distribution and is sold with a caricature of August on the label. The Rib King draws upon the author’s interest in the popularity of minstrelsy and the devastating impact it had on African-Americans’ efforts to assert their rights as citizens during the first decades of the 20th century. In chronicling the path through which August Sitwell’s distorted image becomes an emblem of quality\, reliability\, and modern convenience the novel explores the nostalgia for slavery that was so vividly dramatized through the use of African-Americans to sell consumer items\, particularly culinary products\, during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. \nLadee Hubbard is the author of the novel The Talented Ribkins which received the Ernest J. Gaines Award for Literary Excellence and the Hurston-Wright Legacy Award for Debut Fiction. She received a BA from Princeton University\, a MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Wisconsin\, Madison and a PhD from the University of California\, Los Angeles. Her short fiction has appeared in Virginia Quarterly Review\, Callaloo and Guernica\, among other venues. Her film and book reviews appear in The Times Literary Supplement. She is a recipient of a Rona Jaffe Foundation Writers’ Award and has received additional fellowships and grants from the Sustainable Arts Foundation\, MacDowell Colony and Sewanee Writers Conference among others. She lives in New Orleans. \nGulf South Writer in the Woods\, a program of A Studio in the Woods and the New Orleans Center for the Gulf South\, is designed to support the creative work\, scholarship and community engagement of writers examining the Gulf South region. \nThis is a potluck\, we will provide the main dish but ask that everyone pitch in a little something – drinks\, salad\, appetizer\, dessert… \nThe event is free\, but please RSVP here

SUMMARY:Artist Salon with Nick Slie
DESCRIPTION:Please join us to meet A Studio in the Woods’ newest resident artist\, Nick Slie\, who has been awarded one of six Adaptations Residencies at A Studio in the Woods this season.\n\nThis is a potluck\, we will provide the main dish but ask that everyone pitch in a little something – drinks\, salad\, appetizer\, dessert… \nPlease RSVP here and let us know what you plan to bring. Click here for map and directions. Please note that parking is limited\, save on gas and carpool with a friend! \n\nWhile in residence\, Nick will embark on “Invisible Rivers\,” a series of performances and public walks that seek to re-engage citizens with the wisdom of adaptation and uncertainty inherent in the once wild paths of the Mississippi River.  “Invisible Rivers” unites the power of art\, the strategies of cultural organizing\, and the wisdom of ancestry to investigate how the structures of control it takes to levee a river have shown up in the interior landscapes of the people\, protecting us from a most necessary tool of adaptation: grief. \nNick Slie is a New Orleans-born performer\, producer and cultural organizer. He is the Co-Artistic Director of Mondo Bizarro and an Associate Professor of Theater at Nunez Community College. Nick’s creative endeavors range from interdisciplinary solo performances to large-scale community festivals\, from innovative digital storytelling projects to site-responsive productions. For more than a decade\, he has been passionately engaged in rebuilding his hometown of New Orleans\, collaborating across sectors on a vast array of local performance and arts-based civic engagement projects. Since 2002\, Nick has toured a wide array of imaginative projects to art centers\, universities and outdoor locations in 38 states across the country and abroad. However\, he is most proud of the work he does in Southeast Louisiana\, where the land kisses the water.

SUMMARY:Mardi Gras From a Bird's Eye View Bead Collection
DESCRIPTION:Recycle your beads with the Mockingbird Project! Artist Pippin Frisbie-Calder\, scientists from Karubian Lab\, and community volunteers will be out on the Uptown parade route (St. Charles between Napoleon and Louisiana) to recycle Mardi Gras Beads and raise awareness about lead contamination in the city. Bring us your beads and we will exchange them for a hand-made throw and recycle them. Saturday\, January 15\, 1:30pm – 5:30pm. \nA Studio in the Woods is working in collaboration with Tulane biologists Dr. Jordan Karubian and PhD student Annelise Blanchette to host an artist residency for printmaker Pippin Frisbie-Calder to raise awareness about urban birds and lead contamination in New Orleans with themes related to both public health and the well being of all living creatures. As in many older cities around the world\, lead contamination represents an important health risk to both human and animal inhabitants of New Orleans. Ongoing work by Dr. Jordan Karubian and colleagues suggests that high levels of lead in some New Orleans neighborhoods may impact the behavior and reproductive success of urban songbirds. In this way\, these songbirds may serve as “canaries in the coal mine” for the risks associated with lead contamination\, with the potential to raise awareness about this important but sometimes under-appreciated issue. The artist will collaborate closely with scientists from Karubian Lab and staff at A Studio in the Woods to understand the effects of lead and develop provocative community engagement using the shared platform of Mardi Gras as a vehicle to reach a broad swath of local residents. \nA key component to this project will be getting toxic beads out of the trash and into recycling programs. In addition to high levels of lead in New Orleans from historic contamination\, Mardi Gras beads have been shown to have high levels of heavy metals. Objects tossed off of Mardi Gras parade floats\, called ‘throws’ locally\, comprise approximately 25 million pounds of trash produced annually during the two week celebration. Our intention is to incentivize people to recycle their beads by exchanging them for a beautiful\, eco-friendly\, handcrafted throw. Thanks to GroundsKrewe.org and ArcGNO.org for assistance in recycling our beads!

SUMMARY:Mardi Gras From a Bird's Eye View Bead Collection
DESCRIPTION:Recycle your beads with the Mockingbird Project! Artist Pippin Frisbie-Calder\, scientists from Karubian Lab\, and community volunteers will be out on the Uptown parade route (Napoleon between Magazine and St. Charles) to recycle Mardi Gras Beads and raise awareness about lead contamination in the city. Bring us your beads and we will exchange them for a hand-made throw and recycle them. Sunday\, February 23\, 1:30pm – 5:30pm. \nA Studio in the Woods is working in collaboration with Tulane biologists Dr. Jordan Karubian and PhD student Annelise Blanchette to host an artist residency for printmaker Pippin Frisbie-Calder to raise awareness about urban birds and lead contamination in New Orleans with themes related to both public health and the well being of all living creatures. As in many older cities around the world\, lead contamination represents an important health risk to both human and animal inhabitants of New Orleans. Ongoing work by Dr. Jordan Karubian and colleagues suggests that high levels of lead in some New Orleans neighborhoods may impact the behavior and reproductive success of urban songbirds. In this way\, these songbirds may serve as “canaries in the coal mine” for the risks associated with lead contamination\, with the potential to raise awareness about this important but sometimes under-appreciated issue. The artist will collaborate closely with scientists from Karubian Lab and staff at A Studio in the Woods to understand the effects of lead and develop provocative community engagement using the shared platform of Mardi Gras as a vehicle to reach a broad swath of local residents. \nA key component to this project will be getting toxic beads out of the trash and into recycling programs. In addition to high levels of lead in New Orleans from historic contamination\, Mardi Gras beads have been shown to have high levels of heavy metals. Objects tossed off of Mardi Gras parade floats\, called ‘throws’ locally\, comprise approximately 25 million pounds of trash produced annually during the two week celebration. Our intention is to incentivize people to recycle their beads by exchanging them for a beautiful\, eco-friendly\, handcrafted throw. Thanks to GroundsKrewe.org and ArcGNO.org for assistance in recycling our beads!
