SUMMARY:Once More\, With Feeling... (New Wight Biennial 2020)
DESCRIPTION:Organized by the UCLA Department of Art\nDate: Tuesday\, October 1\, 2020\nTime: 9:00 AM\nLocation: Online Exhibition\, on display Oct 1.-Oct. 31 \nGallery Website \nThe exhibition focuses on the contemporary resonances of the Non-Aligned Movement. We were interested in asking how Race\, Gender\, Sexuality\, and Empire throughout the third world impact contemporary art globally by engaging with how the political project of Non-Alignment finds itself articulated in the aesthetic\, formal\, social\, economic\, and political articulations of contemporary art today. The question that arises is\, why deal with this movement today\, or better\, why have the ideas and concepts of this movement seen such a resurgence\, and with such prominence in art in the past few years? \nThe exhibition will “open” (the website will become live & accessible) on October 1st. The website will display the work (sculpture\, video\, performance\, painting) of the 24 participating artists and will be complemented by programming. There will be 4 different panel discussions each centered around a different theme related to Non-Alignment. There will also be a feminist manifesto writing workshop that will meet 3 times throughout October in order to bring together a manifesto for the exhibition.

SUMMARY:Beyond Innocence
DESCRIPTION:Talk by Professor Miriam Ticktin\, the New School for Social Research\nDate: Thursday\, October 8\, 2020\nTime: 12:15 PM – 1:45 PM\nLocation: Zoom \nProfessor Ticktin’s talk on Racial Innocence will launch our year-long speakers’ series on Structural Violence. Culture\, Power\, and Social Change is a colloquium series in the Department of Anthropology that is aimed at an interdisciplinary audience of graduate students from a range of departments including anthropology\, gender studies\, sociology\, ethnic studies departments\, world arts and cultures/dance\, ethnomusicology\, urban planning and public policy\, and the School of Medicine. \nThis talk addresses the relationship between innocence and politics; even as innocence is defined against politics\, as freedom from the worldly and unworldly – my argument is that innocence is deployed in politically potent ways . Indeed\, I suggest it has moved to the center of political life today. The larger book of which this is a part investigates how discourses and images of innocence get assembled and weaponized across the fields of immigration\, gender politics\, racial politics and environmentalism. It is a flexible concept that intimately shapes why and how we should care\, for whom\, and whose lives matter. I will focus on innocence as a racialized tool that is central to border regimes—I will discuss both European and American borders — producing the difference between deserving and undeserving\, refugee and economic migrant\, and ultimately functioning to redraw understandings of “humanity” and its constituent outsides. \nProfessor Miriam Ticktin has served as Director of Gender Studies\, Chair of Anthropology\, and Co-Director of the Zolberg Institute on Migration and Mobility at the New School. Her work sits at the intersection of the race and immigration studies\, anthropology of medicine\, and transnational and postcolonial feminist theory. \nCo-Sponsored by\n\nCenter for the Study of Women\nCenter for European and Russian Studies

SUMMARY:An Archival Cure: Remedy\, Care\, and Curation of HIV-Positive Artists’ Records with the Visual AIDS Archive Project
DESCRIPTION:Organized by the UCLA Department of Information Studies \nDate: Thursday\, October 29\, 2020\nTime: 3:00 PM\nLocation: Online/Zoom \nMarika Cifor\, PhD\, is an Assistant Professor in the Information School at the University of Washington. She is a feminist scholar of archival studies and digital studies. Her research investigates how individuals and communities marginalized by gender\, sexuality\, race and ethnicity\, and HIV-status are represented and how they document and represent themselves and their social movements in archives and digital cultures. This multidisciplinary scholarship uncovers how archives and digital technologies\, data\, and cultures are shaping identities\, experiences\, and social movements. \nAIDS activists\, advocacy organizations\, physicians and medical researchers\, and people living with HIV/AIDS have devoted vast energy and resources to finding a medical cure for HIV/AIDS. Now well into the fourth decade of the HIV/AIDS pandemic\, a medical cure remains elusive. Drawing from her book-in-progress\, Viral Cultures: Activist Archives at the End of AIDS\, Marika Cifor examines activist archiving as cure. Since 1994\, Visual AIDS a community-based arts organization has documented\, collected\, preserved\, and made accessible the records of artists living with HIV and estates of artists who have perished\, in order to preserve and honor their legacies\, and to expose and redress AIDS’ injustices. The holistic cure Visual AIDS demands is requisite to responding in kind to an epidemic that is and always has been political and cultural as much as biomedical. In this talk\, Cifor analyzes the Archive Project’s curative efforts and their implications in three parts. First\, examining the archives as a remedy for one kind of death\, that of artistic career. Second\, she turns to AIDS archiving as communal acts of critical care. Finally\, she examines the archives as curing\, preserving digitally to ensure long-term animation. The Archive Project and the Artist+ Registry\, its digital archives counterpart\, highlight the material and conceptual affordances of archiving as anti-AIDS activism. Its records and their nimble activation hold imaginative capacities for challenging persistent gendered\, racialized\, and classed discrimination and stigmatization faced by those living with HIV/AIDS. The archives’ work also demonstrates the conjoined limitations of art and activist archiving in meeting urgent needs and redressing harm. Despite such constraints\, activist archiving can vitally engender survival.

SUMMARY:CSW Research Affiliate Brown Bag: Women in Postwar Franco-Japanese Films
DESCRIPTION:Women in Postwar Franco-Japanese Films\nA Talk by Hannah Holtzman\, PhD\nDate: Friday\, October 30thTime: 12-1 pm\nLocation: Online/Zoom \nRSVP \nAs part of a larger project on Franco-Japanese exchange in cinema\, Hannah Holtzman will discuss the roles of women in the first two Franco-Japanese cinematic co-productions\, Typhoon over Nagasaki (1957) and Hiroshima mon amour (1959). Hiroshima mon amour\, a collaboration by Marguerite Duras and Alain Resnais\, is perhaps best known for its formal innovation\, but it also introduced a new configuration of gender roles\, responding to both the fading tradition of Japonisme and the stereotypical race and gender roles in its immediate precursor Typhoon over Nagasaki. Typhoon over Nagasaki\, a commercial if not critical success at its release\, has been more or less forgotten by scholars today. This talk will compare gender in these films and analyze how both played a pivotal role in restarting Franco-Japanese cultural exchange in the postwar era. \nHannah Holtzman is a Research Affiliate at the UCLA Center for the Study of Women and a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of San Diego’s Humanities Center. Her\nresearch in global film studies and the environmental humanities focuses on Franco-\nJapanese cultural exchange and nuclear cinema. Her work has been published in French Studies and Contemporary French Civilization.
