SUMMARY:One-Act Play Reading
DESCRIPTION:Presenting Aria Da Capo by Edna St. Vincent Millay\, written in 1920 in homage to The Academy Players of the Broadmoor Art Academy\, the FAC Theatre Company will perform special one-act play readings in the museum galleries in celebration of our 100th Anniversary. Free and open to the public in the Loo Gallery. \nThe play that caught the attention of the critics on the second bill of the 1919-1920 season at the Provincetown Playhouse\, was Aria da Capo by Edna St. Vincent Millay.  An unusual play structurally\, a pastoral bookended with a harlequinade\, it is unique in that it was perceived by most to be an anti-war statement\, and yet can also be seen as an more universal portrayal of the human condition.  The play defies being set in a given time period and the playwright allows juxtapositions within the play to speak louder than the writing of any political statements could have accomplished. The characters are portrayed as being controlled by a script not of their own making\, and yet ultimately prove to be powerless to step away from it. The play’s oblique approach actually gives its message power and its simplicity of staging was perfect for it to be premiered by the Provincetown Players.

SUMMARY:Text Without Type
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the Broadmoor Art Academy’s 100th anniversary learn to use non-traditional letterpress and relief printmaking techniques to explore the visual\, material\, conceptual\, and poetic possibilities of text. We’ll be working at The Press at Colorado College\, with Aaron Cohick\, but the class will focus on “low-tech” processes for all skill levels that can be adapted for use outside of a letterpress studio: linoleum/paper relief\, collagraph\, stencil printing\, pressure printing\, pochoir\, monoprints\, and collage. Each student will produce a small print of their own combining various techniques\, and/or a set of print samples.

SUMMARY:3 MOVEMENTS Pop-up performance
DESCRIPTION:3 Movements is a collaborative\, multi-disciplinary\, multi-sensory\, three part installation and performance that takes place over the course of three evenings at three different exhibiting spaces in Colorado Springs. The installations and performances will be free and open to the public\, and encourage participants to engage directly with the pop up environment and the interpersonal interactions taking place inside the temporary structures. \nEach site focuses on and isolate specific modes of interaction that are commonplace encounters in everyday life. 3 Movements takes place in constructed environments that are at once private and public to embrace the fluidity of personal and shared encounters with others\, whether experienced personally or passively observed. In this controlled interactive space\, the performer (JD Sell) encourages participants to become acutely aware of the different levels of physical contact one may experience in a day\, from brushing shoulders\, to making eye contact or holding hands. \n3 Movements is comprised of a collaboration between JD Sell\, installation artist and lead performer/activator; Kate Perdoni\, Mitchell Macura and Alex Koshack\, soundscape designers and performers; and Alix Garcia\, Su Kaiden Cho and Aaron Graves\, moving-suit designers. \nFree and open to the public

SUMMARY:Melanie Yazzie: Finding Oneself Again and Again
DESCRIPTION:Melanie Yazzie is informed by the Diné philosophy of hozho — translated as blessings\, beauty\, and harmony. After experiencing illness\, she challenged herself to create artworks that find ways to heal from and to balance the negative effects of settler colonialism that Indigenous people live with on a daily basis. Her earlier works focused on calling attention to the harsh realities of racism\, poverty\, and loss of home territories. She continues to acknowledge these struggles\, but now layers her artworks with recuperative images. As a Mellon Foundation Artist in Residence at the Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center at Colorado College in 2018\, Yazzie began using printing plates recovered from a 1939 book project about Diné healing practices. By layering the fractional images of the color-separation plates with her own iconography formed from memories of people and places\, Yazzie asserts the ongoing significance of Indigenous knowledge. This exhibition presents recent works created during the Mellon Foundation residency and over the course of a very productive time following her experience at Colorado Springs.

SUMMARY:Detour
DESCRIPTION:Thomas Evans (aka Detour) is a Denver-based painter\, muralist\, and installation artist\, internationally renowned for his brightly colored portraits and large-scale artworks. Inspired by breakdancing and hip hop\, Evans often exists at the intersection of art and music\, notably with his innovative use of technology to create touch sensitive surfaces that respond with sound. For years\, the artist dreamed of creating touchable\, interactive paintings that would stimulate multiple senses at once\, breaking down barriers and assumptions surrounding fine art. That vision was finally brought to fruition with a major public debut during Evans’ stint as a Creative in Residence at the Denver Art Museum in the fall of 2017. As he mixes new media with traditionally accepted modes of representation\, Evans challenges expectations of static artworks that are positioned literally (and figuratively) beyond the viewer’s reach. Through physical engagement with the work\, museum visitors become active participants in the creative process as collaborators with the artist and fellow guests\, resulting in a unique\, memorable experience. For Evans\, art should be “a part of your life\, rather than just in it.” \nNow a Colorado icon\, Evans dedicated himself to a full-time studio practice a mere half dozen years ago\, and quickly exploded into the Denver arts scene. His 2012 MBA degree from the University of Colorado Denver has served him well\, implementing marketing savvy to build his artistic spirit of social activism and passion for community into a professional career. National acclaim came in 2016 with acknowledgement from the Huffington Post about They Still Live\, a series combining photography\, DNA mapping\, and African objects\, sponsored by Ancestry.com. The artist and his work have been featured by CNN\, numerous digital and print publications\, radio and television outlets\, and most recently\, on the Netflix show My Next Guest Needs No Introduction With David Letterman\, for which Evans painted two portraits\, one of the eponymous host and one of guest artist Jay-Z. \nEvans adopted the moniker of Detour as a break dancer living in Germany\, and has since traveled to locations across the globe\, from Tanzania to Argentina and France. For Evans\, experimentation is essential to growth\, and the willingness to explore a different path—taking an actual detour—is what helped him to make a dramatic professional shift and begin to find his artistic voice. Yet\, Denver remains home for the artist\, who celebrates its distinct cultures\, relaxed style\, and supportive art scene with growth that parallels his own development as a creative force. In his artist statement\, he says that his work “consists of channeling concepts and issues about the urban arts culture through portraits of minority and urban subjects\,” hoping to raise awareness of certain communities with artistic interventions as a “building block between the viewer and the message\,” leading to greater understanding. \nFor more about Thomas “Detour” Evans\, visit: www.iamdetour.com
