SUMMARY:Paha Stitch: Reclaiming the name and restoring dignity to Lakota Beading
DESCRIPTION:Rhonda Holy Bear will discuss her campaign to reclaim the Lakota language and eliminate the derogatory term “lazy stitch”.\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nWords we use to define Indigenous histories and traditions have significant meaning and power. Many common yet offensive terms still used today have racist origins to describe Indigenous artistic techniques and practices contributing to cultural erasure. Award-winning Lakota Artist Rhonda Holy Bear is committed to restoring the appropriate terminology and language to describe beading techniques. In this session\, Rhonda will discuss her campaign to reclaim the Lakota language and eliminate the derogatory term “lazy stitch” used to describe long-venerated traditional beading techniques. Rhonda will share how the offensive word was used to imply Lakota grandmothers were “lazy” women whose artwork was unworthy of respect. She will introduce the appropriate term\, “Paha Stitch\,” meaning Hill Stitch or apahaka kagege used to reflect the Lakota values for industriousness and a strong work ethic. Rhonda invites others to change the name to Paha Stitch to honor and preserve the true legacy of Lakota/Plains women. \n  \nAbout the Artist \nRhonda Holy Bear was born in South Dakota in 1959. Rhonda is a Lakota transitional art figure artist. She has been creating figures for over 45 years. She spent her formative years on the Cheyenne River Sioux Indian Reservation in South Dakota and\, later\, in Chicago. Rhonda would eventually move to the southwest\, settling in New Mexico and\, most recently\, Las Vegas\, Nevada. As a youth\, Rhonda researched the work of her ancestors in the vaults of the Chicago Field Museum. Her meticulous research and artistic gifts would establish Rhonda as a notable leader in her field. Her innovative transitional art figures\, a combination of sculpture and traditional techniques\, have elevated the prominence of Plains figures in contemporary Native American art. What were once primarily considered playthings are now highly collectible plains Indian art figures. Her work has been prominently displayed in museums and private collections in United States and around the world. Most recently\, her work has been featured in The Metropolitan Art Museum of New York\, The Smithsonian Institution’s National Museum of the American Indian and at the Art Institute of Chicago and The Field Museum of Chicago. Rhonda was recently honored in a naming ceremony in her native South Dakota. Her Lakota name is “Wakah Wayuphika Win” (Making With Exceptional Skills Woman).

SUMMARY:Live Performances: Sergio Gomez and Joanna Pinsky with Beate Axmann
DESCRIPTION:Live Performances will take place in the DANK Treffpunkt (1st floor gallery)\, where guests are encouraged to watch at any time during the session. Performances begin at 5:00pm and go until the artists are done painting (about 2 hours).\n\nPerformance dates:\n\nWednesday\, May 4 – Sergio Gomez with Beate Axmann\n\n5-7 PM\n\n\nTuesday\, May 17 – Joanna Pinsky with Beate Axmann\n\n5-7 PM\n\n\n\nAbout the performances:\nBeate Axmann has invited two Chicago-based artists to collaborate with her on this dynamic exhibition. Each artist will begin with their own large canvas. During this performance\, there will be several exchanges of the two canvases – meaning that each artist will add to the other artist’s work! This encounter will make visible the meaning of creative intervention\, trust and respect between the artists\, and the differences in their artistic expression.\n\nSpectators will have the unique opportunity to experience a very special art encounter – certainly not one that you see every day.

SUMMARY:Author Talk: Making Mexican Chicago
DESCRIPTION:In Making Mexican Chicago\, Mike Amezcua offers a powerful multiracial history of Chicago that sheds new light on the origins and endurance of urban inequality. Amezcua visits the Newberry to discuss how the Windy City became a postwar Latinx metropolis in the face of white resistance. \nThough Chicago is often popularly defined by its Polish\, Black\, and Irish populations\, Cook County is home to the third-largest Mexican American population in the United States. The story of Mexican immigration and integration into the city is one of complex political struggles\, deeply entwined with issues of housing and neighborhood control. \nIn the decades after World War II\, working-class Chicago neighborhoods like Pilsen and Little Village became sites of upheaval and renewal. Mexican Americans attempted to build new communities in the face of white resistance that cast them as perpetual aliens. Mike Amezcua charts the diverse strategies used by Mexican Chicagoans to fight the forces of segregation\, economic predation\, and gentrification\, focusing on how unlikely combinations of social conservatism and real estate market savvy paved new paths for Latinx assimilation. \nFor this event\, Amezcua will speak with James Akerman\, Curator of Maps at the Newberry and the curator of the exhibition Crossings: Mapping American Journeys. \nPurchase Making Mexican Chicago online from the Newberry Bookshop. \nThis event is being held in conjunction with Crossings: Mapping American Journeys . The exhibition runs at the Newberry from February 25 through June 25.\n \n  \nThis program is free and open to all; free tickets required.
