SUMMARY:Film Screening: “Baltic Truth”
DESCRIPTION:Narrated by award-winning Israeli performer and son of Holocaust Survivors Dudu Fisher\, Baltic Truth exposes key facts of the first months of World War II in the Baltic States and how almost the entire Jewish community of the occupied Baltic Nations was eliminated via “Holocaust by Bullets” with assistance from the local population. \nUltimately\, Baltic Truth reveals how some national heroes involved in Holocaust crimes are still being celebrated by their fellow countrymen to this very day and reflects upon the need for accuracy in Holocaust history. \nThe film screening will be followed by remarks from Eugene J. Levin\, Director\, and a discussion with Dudu Fisher\, renowned artist of film\, television\, stage\, and song; and Kelley Szany\, Senior Vice President of Education & Exhibitions at Illinois Holocaust Museum & Education Center.

SUMMARY:Olga Cerpa & Mestisay
DESCRIPTION:Free (with a suggested donation of $10 at the door).\nReservations are strongly recommended!\nCo-presented with the Segundo Ruiz Belvis Cultural Center. \nSaturday\, February 11th – 8:00 PM \nOlga Cerpa is the most important female voice of the Canary Islands. Nominated for two Latin Grammys\, she has shared the stage with such artists as Omara Portuondo and Joan Manuel Serrat\, among others. Cerpa and Mestisay use “Jallo\,” an insular word that refers to the objects that the sea throws to the Canary shores\, to create splendid songs inspired by the musical influences that reach the beaches of their native land. Latin America\, Portugal\, Cape Verde and the African continent leave their mark as they revisit island songs that have been “found” in these years of musical journeys and that they rediscover for themselves and their audience through original arrangements. Olga Cerpa y Mestisay will be presenting their latest production\, Palosanto\, where they invited 17 renowned guitarists from around the world to record with them. \nCanary Islands and Puerto Rico \nThe commonalities between Canarios and Boricuas have intrigued generations of islanders from both sides of the Atlantic for decades. Probably the most evident similarity between the smallest of the Greater Antilles and the southernmost archipiélago in Spain is found in the language. However\, the strong connection between these two cultures goes beyond the Caribbean Spanish accent\, and can also be seen in its music\, aboriginal roots\, and profound ties to the African continent. Join us as we celebrate the music of the Canary Island and Puerto Rico in this special co-production of the International Latino Cultural Center and Segundo Ruiz Belvis Cultural Center.

SUMMARY:Exhibit Opening: Tilling the Past
DESCRIPTION:Admission to the special exhibit is free on Sunday\, Feb. 26\, 11 a.m. – 1 p.m. \nTilling the Past\nPhotography by Hilma Ljung\nBetween the years 1908 and the mid 1930’s armed with her 4×5 glass plate view camera\, Hilma Ljung photographed the lives and land that surrounded her and her family in the small village of Svalöv. In an era where photography was largely presided over by men\, Ljung shows us a mostly unseen perspective of rural Swedish life from the female’s point of view. Let us walk out of the darkroom and into the light to view Ljung’s pioneering photographs. \nThe land around Svalöv\, located in the southernmost region of Sweden\, is home to some of the country’s best soil and climate for farming; so much so that the Coat of Arms for the region is a farmer sowing seed. Wheat\, rye\, barley\, potatoes\, oat and flax were all grown for market\, with a vegetable garden\, and chickens\, for household use. A renowned dairy was eventually established on the property. Whey\, a by-product to the butter and milk production\, became feed for pig breeding\, an activity which won Hilma’s family considerable acclaim; the King himself once descending upon Svalöv to admire the breeding “sires and sow’s.” \nLjung’s photographs parallel famed Swedish painter Carl Larsson in that her love and passion for her family and home\, flow through her images with the same authentic pulse. Like Larsson who painted images of everyday activities\, Ljung also chronicled everyday life with a deep and genuine passion. She reveals her family’s favorite location to pick berries. She takes us to a lake where one of her sons is fishing. Her image of a beautiful sunny winter day creates a yearning for a fireplace and tea. \nPrior to 1903 when the invention of what we know today as film (gelatin silver negative)\, photographic emulsion was made on glass plates. There were two formats. The wet plate collodion\, discovered in 1851 by British inventor Frederick Scott Archer\, and the gelatin dry plate negative discovered in 1871 by Richard Leach Maddox. Both of these glass plate formats have a light sensitive emulsion that is attached to the glass plate with a binder. One of the main reasons glass plate negatives mostly disappeared from the consumer market was because of the introduction of the much more user friendly\, less fragile gelatin silver negative on celluloid roll film. Hilma photographed with gelatin dry plate glass negatives. \nThere is a beautiful and authentic simplicity attached to this story. A loving mother\, a devoted wife\, chronicling the life that surrounded her. People are drawn to the past. Ljung’s images are windows revealing a life that was\, tilling the past of people’s lives. \nLike summiting a mountain\, Hilma has given us a new vantage point. One that helps us viewers see the history of photography through an exciting and unfamiliar lens. Thank you\, Hilma\, for sharing with us your perspective of the world you lived in.

SUMMARY:Saekdong & Fashion
DESCRIPTION:‘Saekdong & Fashion’ Solo Exhibition\n김윤 개인전\n덕성여자대학교 의상디자인전공 부교수 \nExhibition: Feb. 10-Feb. 23\n@KCCoC Gallery\n9925 Capitol Dr. Wheeling\, IL. 60090\nInquiry: (847) 947-4460 \n패션디자인의 표현 영역 중 하나인 패션일러스트레이션은 기존의 패션 드로잉(일러스트레이션)이라는 인식에서 벗어나 빠르게 변화하는 패션 산업 속에서 패션의 새로운 장르로 발전하고 있다. 패션일러스트레이션의 융합적 표현기법 개발을 통해 패션디자인 영역의 대중화와 표현의 폭을 넓히는 작가의 활동은 패션 예술성의 확장과 패션산업의 무경계화적 발전을 보여준다. \nK-Fashion은 다양한 영역에서 표현되고 있다. 이번 작품에서 작가는 글로벌화되어진 K-Fashion의 예술적 범위와 실험적 아이디어 표현 영역을 확장하였다. 특히 한국 전통 패션의 대표적 색과 패턴인 ‘색동’을 통해 한국의 패션이 얼마나 빠르게 글로벌 패션에 스며들고 있는지를 보여주고자 한다. 또한 미니멀한 ‘도형화’로 표현한 한글의 일부를 한국 전통 스트라이프 패턴인‘색동’과 함께 디자인함으로써 K-Fashion의 세련되고 미니멀함을 한국적 색채로 보여준다. \n작가는 핸드크래프트적 아날로그 기법으로 한국 전통 원단에 표현한 핸드 스티치와 핸드드로잉을 사용하였고\, 조형적 특성 강조를 위해 디지털 프로그램을 함께 활용하는 융합적 표현을 보여준다. 이를 통해 패션일러스트레이션 표현의 새로운 방향성을 제시하고 패션일러스트레이션 관련 연구의 범위를 확장하였다. 또한 글로벌 패션산업에서 활용하기 적합한 K-Fashion의 디자인 표현 영역을 넓히는 특별한 전시가 될 것이다.\n \n‘Saekdong & Fashion’\nYoon Kim Solo Exhibition\nAssociate Professor\, Dept. of Fashion Design\, Duksung Women’s University \nExhibition: Feb. 10-Feb. 23 \n@KCCoC Gallery\n9925 Capitol Dr. Wheeling\, IL. 60090\nInquiry: (847)947-4460 \nFashion illustration\, one of the expression areas of fashion design\, is developing into a new genre of fashion in the fast-changing fashion industry\, breaking away from the existing perception of fashion drawing (illustration). The artist’s activities to popularize the fashion design field and expand the range of expression through the development of convergent expression techniques of fashion illustration show the expansion of fashion artistry and the borderless development of the fashion industry. \nK-Fashion is expressed in various areas. In this work\, the artist expanded the artistic range of globalized K-Fashion and the experimental expression of ideas. In particular\, we want to show how quickly Korean fashion is permeating into global fashion through ‘Saekdong’\, a representative color and pattern of Korean traditional fashion. In addition\, by designing a part of Hangeul\, which is expressed in minimal ‘figure painting’\, along with ‘Saekdong’\, a traditional Korean stripe pattern\, it shows the refined and minimalism of K-Fashion in Korean colors. \nThe artist used hand stitches and hand drawings expressed on Korean traditional fabrics with handcrafted analog techniques\, that shows a convergence of expressions using digital programs together to emphasize formative characteristics. Through this\, a new direction of fashion illustration expression was created and the scope of research related to fashion illustration was expanded. It will also be a special exhibition that expands the realm of K-Fashion design expression suitable for use in the global fashion industry.

SUMMARY:Mutinous Women: How French Convicts Became Founding Mothers of the Gulf Coast
DESCRIPTION:This program will be livestreamed on Zoom. Free and open to all. Register in advance here. \nJoin us as Joan DeJean and Jack McCord use maps from the Newberry collection to recreate the European settlement of the vast territory in North America that the French named Louisiana\, and to tell the story of one remarkable woman\, Marie Baron. \nOn February 27\, 1720\, Marie Baron and 95 other female inmates who had been serving time in a notorious Parisian prison were abandoned on an uninhabited island off the Gulf Coast. Most of the women had\, like Marie Baron\, been falsely charged with “public prostitution.” Those who survived their deportation on a ship named La Mutine\, “the Mutinous Woman\,” forged such remarkable lives that their impact on this country continues\, three centuries later. Their lives are recounted in Joan DeJean’s new book\, Mutinous Women: How French Convicts Became Founding Mothers of the Gulf Coast. \nIn Louisiana\, Marie Baron became a person of note and the wife of Jean François Dumont—a mapmaker responsible for many extraordinary maps in the Newberry collection. Dumont recorded events in Louisiana’s history that he himself had not witnessed but that his wife had\, embedding her perspective into his vision of the European settlement of North America. \nSigned copies of Joan DeJean’s book Mutinous Women are available for purchase online from the Newberry Bookshop. \nThis event is cosponsored by the Alliance Française de Chicago.
