SUMMARY:Screening of Extraterrestres (2017\, Puerto Rico/Venezuela); Q&A to follow
DESCRIPTION:About the film: Teresa is a vegetarian and a successful astrophysicist who lives with her girlfriend\, Daniela\, in the Canary Islands. After years of self-exile\, Teresa returns to Puerto Rico to invite the family to her wedding. But the Díaz family\, who lives in a rural town\, are a conservative and well-to-do family who control much of the poultry industry in Puerto Rico. No one in the family is who they appear and none is willing to reveal their most intimate secrets\, so once back home\, Teresa chooses to lie. When several acts of sabotage force the closure of the family business and Daniela\, tired of waiting for Teresa\, travels to Puerto Rico to meet her new family\, the Díaz family nucleus collapses like a supernova star\, unleashing a chain reaction that puts in evidence that we are all “Extraterrestrials.” \nFree and open to the public. \nThis event is related to the exhibition Breathe into the Past: Crosscurrents in the Caribbean. \nLocation: Edith Kinney Gaylord Cornerstone Arts Center\, Room 131 at Colorado College \nImage: Suchitra Mattai\, Tethered (detail)\, 2020\, vintage saris\, wire\, and found object\, dimensions variable\, courtesy of K Contemporary\, Denver\, photo by Wes Magyar.

SUMMARY:Poetry Reading and Workshop with Rajiv Mohabir
DESCRIPTION:About Rajiv Mohabir: ​​Rajiv holds a BA from the University of Florida in religious studies\, an MSEd in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages from Long Island University\, Brooklyn\, and an MFA in poetry and literary translation from Queens College\, CUNY where he was Editor in Chief of Ozone Park Literary Journal. While in New York working as a public school teacher\, Rajiv also produced the nationally broadcast radio show KAVIhouse on JusPunjabi (2012-2013). He received his PhD in English from the University of Hawai’i and is currently Translations Editor at Waxwing Journal and teaches in the BFA/MFA program in the Writing\, Literature\, and Publishing department at Emerson College. In “Coolitude: Poetics of the Indian Labor Diaspora” In this project I take a look at the cultural productions of writers\, artists\, musicians\, and filmmakers who descend from indentured laborers from Guyana\, Trinidad\, Suriname\, Mauritius\, South Africa\, Fiji\, and those in second diaspora in England\, the United States\, and Canada. I chart the poetics of Coolitude\, itself a queer cousin of Césaire’s\, Senghor’s\, and Damas’s Négritude. Coolitude uses the labor economy of the British Empire to suggest a similarity in identities\, not based on racial or ethnic sameness\, but rather the function of the economic category Coolie. \nThis event is related to the exhibition Breathe into the Past: Crosscurrents in the Caribbean. \nLocation: Max Kade Theater\, Armstrong Hall\, Colorado College

SUMMARY:Converging Journeys: Thomas Blackshear\, Dean Mitchell\, and Ezra Tucker
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an intimate discussion between Thomas Blackshear\, Dean Mitchell\, and Ezra Tucker as they discuss their creative practices\, which move across design & illustration\, commercial\, and fine art. Their careers have spanned more than four decades and are marked by a commitment to creative exploration as well as charting new pathways for artists of color in historically white industries. \nEvent is free and open to the public. Please RSVP \n\nKnown for his dramatic lighting and sensitivity to mood\, Thomas Blackshear has produced illustrations for advertising\, books\, calendars\, collectors’ plates\, greeting cards\, magazines\, postage stamps\, and national posters. His clients range from Disney Pictures\, Lucasfilm\, and Universal Studios to International Wildlife and National Geographic magazines. He has illustrated thirty United States postage stamps and a commemorative stamp book titled I have a Dream. In 1995\, he created Ebony Visions\, which has been the number-one-selling Black figurine collectible in the United States for the past twenty years. \nHis recent Western Nouveau paintings have been featured on the covers of Art of the West magazine and Western Art Collector. In 2020\, Blackshear was inducted into the Hall of Fame for the Society of Illustrators. \nDean Mitchell is proficient in watercolors\, egg tempera\, oils\, and pastels.  During his four-decade-long career\, Mitchell has become well known for his figurative works\, landscapes\, and still lifes. At the age of twenty-three\, he became the youngest artist ever accepted into the National Watercolor Society; just five years later\, he was admitted into the American Watercolor Society.  He holds numerous gold medals from these and other prestigious painting associations worldwide. His awards now number in the hundreds\, and his work is featured in museums\, corporate\, and private collections throughout the country. The New York Times art critic Michael Kimmelman praised him as a “modern-day Vermeer.” \nAfter thirty plus years of illustration and commercial art success\, Ezra Tucker embarked on a fine art career\, determined to create his own style of artistic beauty in both the portrayal of wildlife and historical personalities and events surrounding the settling of the American Western Frontier. This 18-year journey has proved fulfilling and rewarding to his artistic vision and ambitions. Tucker is widely admired for his paintings that portray wildlife\, notably mammals but also birds as well as historic scenes. \nThe Black Experience in the history of the American West has been untold by the historical record and visibly absent from many of our nation’s museum collections. Tucker’s historical paintings pictorially tell the stories of people of African descent: cowboys\, bronco busters\, Pony Express riders\, Buffalo Soldiers\, Black Seminole Scouts and other Americans. \n  \nThis program is presented in partnership with Broadmoor Galleries and Jewelry Company.
