SUMMARY:Celebration of Spring Exhibitions
DESCRIPTION:Join us for light refreshments and to celebrate the openings of our three new exhibitions. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRedwoods Rasanblaj: Origins and Disentanglements by Gina Athena Ulysse is a multisited public art project and series of creative gatherings and offerings at the Institute for Arts and Sciences and across sites at UC Santa Cruz and Santa Cruz. The exhibition builds on a large-scale installation at the Dakar Biennale (2024) and marks a decade since Gina Athena Ulysse’s call for rasanblaj. This decolonial organizing principle takes its meaning from a Haitian creole term translated as the assembly\, compilation\, enlisting and regrouping of ideas\, things\, people\, and spirits. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn Libia Posada’s first solo exhibition in the United States\, Everything is Going Right\, new and existing artworks from the Colombia-based artist and medical doctor emerge within a vernacular and aesthetic of disease and infection\, symptoms and treatments. With maps made of medical gauze\, prison uniforms sewn with delicate surgical thread\, and crutches blooming with plastic flowers\, the exhibition renders bodily the current conditions in which everything seems to be going wrong and moving right. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPoet and visual artist Ronaldo V. Wilson’s multimedia exhibition poetically and viscerally explores modes of blurring verbal and nonverbal languages to push against the boundaries of perception where notions of race and identity take shape. Emerging at the intersections of Black poetics\, performance and art\, the works in There Are No Words\, But Melodies move between freestyling (improvised voice/rap/lectures)\, drawings\, song\, writing\, and video in a kind of dance—a melodic and embodied critical resistance to oppression and lived realities of pain\, exile\, and loss. Critical histories and experiences of death\, life\, blood\, family memory\, and psychic loss are navigated in form and composition.

SUMMARY:Exhibition Opening Celebration: Maria Gaspar: Compositions
DESCRIPTION:Join Chicago-based artist Maria Gaspar to celebrate the opening of her first solo exhibition on the West Coast\, Compositions\, at the Institute of the Arts and Sciences.  \n\n\n\nMaria Gaspar: Compositions features newly commissioned and existing works from the award-winning artist that ask the crucial question: how do we build a future from the ruins of the carceral present? Grounded in community partnerships and forms of artistic activism\, Gaspar’s multidisciplinary practice helps us imagine new ways to transform existing structures of incarceration while simultaneously making present the histories of those kept out of sight. New works on display at the IAS include bars cast from a recently demolished wing of a sprawling urban jail\, to be activated in musical performances\, and sculptural renderings of the tools used to materially and metaphorically unbuild spaces of punishment. The exhibition includes a selection of films by the artist in the Institute’s purpose-built screening room.  \n\n\n\nThe Institute of the Arts and Sciences is pleased to participate in Santa Cruz’s First Friday Art Tour; join us on October 6 for an after-hours viewing of the exhibition with artist remarks at 7PM. Enjoy a live musical performance by Afro-Samba-Funk group SambaDá and arepas from local food truck\, Pana. This event is free and open to the public.  \n\n\n\nMaria Gaspar: Compositions is on view at the Institute of the Arts and Sciences September 26\, 2023 – March 3\, 2024. In addition to Compositions\, we invite you to enjoy the ongoing exhibition Sadie Barnette: Family Business\, on view at the IAS until December 3\, 2023. \n\n\n\nImage Credit: Mark Poucher \n\n\n\n\n\nWe are also excited for artist Ashley Hunt’s official release of his most recent free newspaper\, “Close California Prisons\,” a collaboration with Critical Resistance (CR) and Californians United for a Responsible Budget (CURB) at this event. “Close California Prisons” features conversations with CR members\, Nick DeRenzi\, Lily Fahsi-Haskell\, Alex Ludington\, Viju Mathew\, and contributions by Steve Brooke and Jo’an Dunn\, and it is created in dialogue with CURB. The newspaper serves as a companion to Hunt’s work\, “Degrees of Visibility\,” a ten-year investigation of carceral systems through landscape photographs\, text\, and community conversations made in locations throughout all fifty U.S. states and territories\, seeking to confront how prisons are presented and camouflaged\, contributing to aesthetics of mass incarceration. Works from “Degrees of Visibility” were exhibited at the IAS from February 5 – April 16\, 2023. “Close California Prisons” also begins the work of Hunt’s new documentary\, following CURB’s Close California Prisons Campaign and prison closures throughout the U.S. The free newspaper introduces the campaign\, its principles and histories\, including actionable tasks for readers to become involved. You are invited to take a newspaper and speak to members of CR who will be tabling at the Opening Celebration. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nWe are pleased to be part of National Arts & Humanities Month in October. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBlock Party on the Bluff\n\n\n\nJust down the road\, continue your First Friday festivities at the Seymour Center. In partnership with Event Santa Cruz\, the Seymour center invites you to join them for a Block Party on the Bluff\, where you can learn more about the groundbreaking research on natural events in Santa Cruz County\, the solutions available to our community\, and how you can contribute to their implementation. The event promises to be a fun-filled day with diverse local food\, vendors\, and live music\, all while discovering the value of our coastal ecosystems in one of Santa Cruz’s most iconic locations.

SUMMARY:Environmental Art + Social Practice MFA Exhibition: Gently Unbind
DESCRIPTION:Gently Unbind \n\n\n\nThe Mary Porter Sesnon Art Gallery is pleased to present the Masters of Fine Art thesis exhibition of the inaugural Environmental Art + Social Practice 2023 cohort.  \n\n\n\nOpening reception: Thursday\, June 8\, 2023 from 4 – 6pmAfter party: June 8\, 2023 6pm – 8pm at the Greenhouse Project (located at UC Santa Cruz Farm)Exhibition on view (UPDATE): Wednesday\, June 8 – Saturday\, June 17\, 2023 \n\n\n\nAs our local community dries out from the unrelenting atmospheric river and prepares for the melting snow\, wars rage in landscapes worldwide and the pandemic continues to show its effects on our mental and global health. We welcome a group exhibition of the first graduating class in the MFA Environmental Art + Social Practice program at UC Santa Cruz.   \n\n\n\nGently Unbind illuminates the collaborative nature of this group of cohorts\, placing certain work outside of the institutional walls of the gallery and into the greater context of community and place. The Greenhouse Project places its foundation in the Farm at UCSC\, where the artwork collaborates with staff\, students and interns to build a lasting stage for programming social and agricultural experiments. Ritual\, identity and place (Philippines) inform objects and a performance of rebirth and community making. The liberation of minerals become pathways for research in extraction and capitalism. Soil takes form in performance\, printing pigment and as an ingredient in a horror film. Sand has been a powerful force on this landscape for millions of years\, through containment and black and white photography\, time passes and an investigation unfolds. Gold dissolves into syllabus\, wall paint and creates a multimedia experience that exposes the inequitable histories and chemical breakdown of a powerful mineral. Unearthed from our local community\, an archive of a stranger becomes the inspiration for a two year project that brings the stranger back to life through technology\, interviews\, accessories and performers. Lastly\, a film based project tackles the complexities of first generational (Polish) guilt and food\, culminating in a horror film constructed on an iPhone.  \n\n\n\nIn the infancy of the 21st century\, art and life become survival for the socially engaged artist/collective and their community. Gently Unbind exposes the questions and struggles of how one moves through this position in two years of research. The evidence of this group dislodges the paradigm of the independent artist sitting alone in the studio\, and brings forth a collaboration with society locally and globally.   \n\n\n\nartists: Annika BerryAnt LorenzoDav Bell – Greenhouse Projectisola tongL Gilbert – Greenhouse Projectlowen hatanoNatalie ZajacPete Brook \n\n\n\nAbout the programThis unique\, two-year\, residential program seeks prospective applicants who want to develop their artwork in relation to social and environmental justice questions\, contexts and communities. Headed by internationally-recognized artists and including affiliate faculty from across campus\, the program integrates the resources of a great public university with the Art Department’s mission of educating and training students in cross-disciplinary\, multimedia art practices. Learn more here.

SUMMARY:Irwin 2023: Blueprint Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us on May 17 for the Irwin 2023: Blueprint Opening Reception at the Mary Porter Sesnon Art Gallery. The Reception will be beside the Porter College koi pond. Remarks and awards ceremony at 5:30 p.m. \n\n\n\nBlueprint presents selected artwork from the recipients of the 37th annual Irwin Scholarship. Faced with shaky socio-political and environmental prospects\, the artists in the IRWIN 2023 cohort offer a return to the drawing board. Without a blueprint for the world as it currently is—or as it will be—the award-winning undergraduate artists reflect on the conflicted\, chaotic current moment as a time of potentiality. Their process-oriented practices materialize questions about what should be retained or abandoned in this time of upheaval. Through printmaking\, photography\, painting\, sculpture\, and installation\, Blueprint reevaluates modes by which to navigate the world to come\, offering space for the collective prefiguration of a continuous future. On view at the Mary Porter Sesnon Art Gallery\, UC Santa Cruz\, from May 17-27\, 2023. See directions and parking details here. \n\n\n\nThe 2023 Irwin Scholarship recipients are Ella Newton\, beatriz savin y juárez\, Nami Lee\, Rae Mancuso\, Taylor Wedaa\, Matthew Kim\, Oscar Kim-Dangle\, Ellory Erecius\, Maximilian von Strasser\, Sydney Gittins\, Naish Linde\, Nicholas Uglow.  \n\n\n\nThe William Hyde and Susan Benteen Irwin Scholarship Fund was established in 1986\, with a modest donation by Sue Irwin\, and now generates 12 annual merit scholarships to further the education of selected UC Santa Cruz students for proven excellence in the arts. The William Hyde Irwin and Susan Benteen Irwin Scholarship is our most prestigious student scholarship in the Art Department. The scholars are nominated by faculty to submit a portfolio of work and then are selected by an all faculty vote. This annual\, professionally organized exhibition has become a tradition in the art department and for the Sesnon Gallery for over 37 years. This scholarship shows the far-reaching effects of support for the arts.  \n\n\n\nNami Lee\, Doll House (2022)\, 44 x 60 in\, copper photo etching à la poupée on digital kozo with chine collé\n\n\n\nElla Newton\, Of the Pond (2022)\, 22 x 28 in\, digital print\n\n\n\nOscar Kim-Dangle\, Space (2023)\, 22 x 20 in\, acrylic on panel\n\n\n\nNicholas Uglow\, Hanabi (2023)\, 4 layer woodblock reduction print on kozo washi
