SUMMARY:Online Curator Talk: Tova Brandt
DESCRIPTION:New Nordic Cuisine is currently on display at the Swedish American Museum. In this virtual talk we get to meet with Tova Brandt who is the Executive Director of the Museum of Danish America in Iowa. The Museum of Danish American curated the exhibit. \nAbout the exhibit:\nThe cooking traditions and innovations of the Nordic region have captured the attention of the world and inspired chefs and home cooks alike.  In 2004 the Nordic Food Manifesto articulated a set of values for approaching food through the lenses of local production\, seasonality\, tradition\, and innovation\, among others.  The manifesto and reactions to it have sparked a robust dialog about food culture\, both in the Nordic countries and around the world.

SUMMARY:April Call to Peace with Peter Magai Bul
DESCRIPTION:Join us to send peace and love to all countries and meet our inspirational special guest Peter Magai Bul. https://theimmigrantstory.org/lost-boy/\nWe met Peter when he started representing South Sudan in the World Peace Flag Ceremony in 2014 at Peace Day. (Buildthepeace.org) and he has been huge supporter every year since then. Peter embarked on harrowing journey as one of the “Lost Boys and Lost Girls of Sudan” at the age of 8 when his ethnic Dinka population was attacked by the Sudanese government sending thousands of boys and girls separated from their families to survive over a decade struggling for their lives in exile. Hear about how he relied on his strong cultural upbringing to make it through years of unimaginable conditions and then went on to draw on his experiences to become a human rights activist and a community organizer\, inspiring youth to leverage their own experiences to make a change in the world. Also learn about his upcoming exhibit at Navy Pier:\nhttp://www.southsudanmagaibul.org/events\nJoin us here live or on zoom: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/81369934785 ID 813 6993 4785\nRead Peter’s complete bio below:\nPeter Magai Bul was born in Wangulei\, South Sudan. In 1988\, when Bul was only seven\, war in Sudan forced him to leave his family and embark upon the longest exodus of his life that first sent him to exile in Ethiopia. He is one of 26\,000 “Lost Boys and Lost Girls of Sudan\,” driven from their villages when the Sudanese government attacked his ethnic Dinka population of Southern Sudan in 1988. After escaping the Ethiopian war of 1991 to the border of Sudan and Kenya\, further attacks by the Sudanese government’s soldiers forced a final exile to Kakuma Refugee Camp in Kenya where he and about survived 14\,000 Lost Boys and Lost Girls resisted life-threatening conditions for a total of nine long years. Bul and about 3\,800 Sudanese refugees were finally resettled in the US in 2001.\nDuring his long walk\, he relied on his strong cultural upbringing that allowed him to survive. Later\, in the U.S.\, he drew on his experiences to become a human rights activist and a community organizer\, inspiring youth to leverage their own skills to make change in the world. As a survivor and a member of generation betrayed by the Sudanese leaders who murdered and displaced millions of his people throughout many decades of endless civil wars\, Bul is committed to championing the unity of his scattered people as well as peace in South Sudan and from the around the world. Throughout his thirteen years of struggles from various refugee camps in Ethiopia and Kenya\, Bul served as a leader\, caring for hundreds of motherless and fatherless children and he continue serving others throughout his over twenty years of living in the United States of America.\n\nBul shared his story with thousands of people at the invitations of faith-based institutions\, community organizations\, universities\, high schools\, elementary schools\, and other public venues. He made television appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show\, Avy Meyers North Town News Magazine\, as well as in news segments on WGN\, Voice of America\, and CAN TV\, among others. Stories from various aspects of his life have been published in news sources such as The Chicago Tribune\, Chicago Sun Times\, and Naperville’s Daily Herald. Bul is a passionate advocate for his homeland and the U.S Sudanese Community. He served as a Board Member for the Chicago Association for the Lost Boys of Sudan (CALBOS) and Sudanese Community Association of Illinois (SCAI)\, among others. He cofounded and served as a President of nonprofit organization\, the Philadelphia-based Ayual Community Development Association (ACDA). Bul is also a member of the US-based advocate\, humanitarian\, and charitable groups known as the Ambassador Group (AG) and Coalition of Advocates for South Sudan (CASS).

SUMMARY:Irish Art in Practice: Demands of Hope
DESCRIPTION:The Irish American Heritage Center\, in partnership with the Consulate General of Ireland\, Midwest\, presents Irish Art in Practice. Join Jennifer Keating\, Ph.D. as she brings us through the world of Irish arts and artists\, and the living applications and impressions it makes on the world around us. Jennifer Keating is a Senior Lecturer and the Writing in the Disciplines Specialist in the William S. Dietrich II Institute for Writing Excellence. Most recently\, she served as Assistant Dean for Educational Initiatives in the Dietrich College for Humanities and Social Sciences at Carnegie Mellon University. She brings an educator’s perspective to this fascinating series. \nDemands of Hope\, March 31st\, 7:00pm CST \nIn spring 2020\, in the throes of the Covid-19 lockdown\, Rita Duffy completed a residency at Trinity College confined like much of the world. She began sketching flowers akin to those she saw emerging in Dublin\, as well as highly detailed anatomic drawings of human organs\, exploring the strength and fragility of our systems in the face of a threatening pathogen. In Demands of Hope we will screen Duffy’s original animation\, Anatomy of Hope. We will also view key works by Ursula Burke like The Politicians\, as we explore the duality of hope: its yearning for something bright\, the preservation of what we treasure or the introduction of something new and our deep fears that such optimism may not manifest.

SUMMARY:Voices of the Proud: LGBT+ Composers
DESCRIPTION:On the Sunday before Transgender Day of Visibility\, join us to celebrate LGBT+ culture with “Voices of the Proud: LGBT+ Composers”! The program features the beauty\, love\, grief\, playfulness\, creativity\, and pride of music by LGBT+ artists chosen from a call for submissions.\nThis event will be broadcast live on the Crossing Borders Music Facebook and YouTube channels.\nEnjoy Xenia St. Charles Gilbert’s “How to Spot a Trans Woman According to My Neurosurgeon\,” performed brilliantly by violist Seth Van Embden\, along with the clever wordplay of a voiceover by the composer herself!\nTony Doubek’s “Mind Over Matter” is his own\, brand new arrangement of the final movement what he calls his “3 movement piece depicting my experience living with Bipolar II” from his “collection of intensely personal pieces.” It is stunning\, intensely beautiful\, and hopeful.\nFrida V. de la Sota’s “elegía de una pandemia” captures the stillness\, mourning\, and grief of the almost universal sense of loss during the pandemic.\nThe livestream will share the world premiere of Rylan Gleave’s “biomimicry” for piano quintet. Rylan took the idea of biomimicry\, which he calls “the emulation of natural elements\, for the purpose of solving complex human problems” and asks\, “What if we apply this idea to music?”\nEthan Soledad’s lush and romantic “In effect it is this: that I love you” was “inspired by a love letter written by renowned WWI poet Wilfred Owen to his colonel\, mentor\, and fellow poet Siegfried Sassoon. Both literary legends were known for their raw depictions of the war in their poetry with Sassoon serving as a major influence to Owen’s own work. Both were also closeted homosexuals in a time and place where it was criminalized. Even so\, the incredible bond the two formed during their time together is so evident in the unrelenting love and admiration that Owen exemplifies in this letter.”\nMiguel del Aguila’s exciting and wild “Tamboreño” is a pandemic creation inspired by carnival parades in Miguel’s home town in Uruguay\, with electric musical energy!\nLeland Harris’s “In the Outside: Queer Dances” finds authentic joy in its playful rhythms!\nFeaturing Marianne Parker; piano; Jennifer Leckie and Rasa Mahmoudian\, violins; Seth Van Embden\, viola; and Tom Clowes\, cello; Aidan Kranz\, cinematography; with special thanks to Thavary Krouch for her technical support.\nThis program is made possible in part by the Paul M Angell Family Foundation and City of Chicago’s Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events.\nCrossing Borders Music acknowledges support from the Illinois Arts Council Agency.\nPictured: composer Ethan Gonzalez Soledad\, sitting outside on a bench in a white button-down shirt and dark pants\, posing with a hand behind his head.

SUMMARY:Kozmopoliz Kampopoliz: A Tour of Cosmo Campoli's Hyde Park
DESCRIPTION:Take a trolley tour through the Kozmopoliz\, also known as Cosmo Campoli’s Hyde Park\, as we celebrate the 100th birthday of the late artist.\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nMany know Campoli’s Bird of Peace sculpture in Nichols Park\, but he lived in the neighborhood for over 40 years\, leaving his mark on everything from what was eaten at certain restaurants (Spaghetti A La Gargoyle anyone?) to what got shown at the 57th St. Art Fair. On this tour\, we’ll retrace his steps\, searching out the bits of Hyde Park’s past that survive to this day. \nTour Guide: Paul Durica is the Director of Exhibitions at the Newberry Library. He has a PhD in English from the University of Chicago\, where he developed a series of free and interactive walks\, talks\, and reenactments dealing with Chicago’s past. These public history experiences have received local and national media attention and led to collaborations with cultural institutions from across the city. This is his fifth Hyde Park tour. Find out more at https://pocketguidetohell.com/ \nAdvance RSVP’s are required. Space is very limited. Masks and proof of vaccination required. \nThe trolley will load and unload passengers outside the Logan Center for the Arts\, 915 E 60th St. \n\n\nThis event is part of a day-long series of events\, Cosmo’s Cosmos: 100 Years of Birth\, Death\, and Rebirth. \nMarch 21\, 2022 will be the centenary of the birth of sculptor and Hyde Park resident Cosmo Campoli. Campoli (1922-1997) was part of the “Monster Roster” group associated with the Chicago Imagists in the 1950s\, including Leon Golub and H.C. Westermann. His work\, which frequently centered on themes of birth and death\, was exhibited as part of the Chicago Imagists at the Hyde Park Art Center. His sculpture\, “Bird of Peace\,” known colloquially as “The Egg\,” is a well-known piece of public art in Nichols Park. \n\nThis event is part of the Chicago Lost & Found series of events focused on Chicago art history created by Media Burn Archive. It is being held in partnership with the Smart Museum of Art and the Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts at the University of Chicago.  It is presented as part of Art Design Chicago Now\, an initiative funded by the Terra Foundation for American Art that amplifies the voices of Chicago’s diverse creatives\, past and present\, and explores the essential role they play in shaping the now.

SUMMARY:Film Screening: Say My Name
DESCRIPTION:A look at female lyricists in hip-hop and R&B.\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout this event\n\n\nDiscussion led by hip-hop artist Amina Norman-Hawkins. \nIn a hip hop and R&B world dominated by men and noted for misogyny\, the unstoppable female lyricists of Say My Name speak candidly about class\, race\, and gender in pursuing their passions as female MCs. This worldwide documentary takes viewers on a vibrant tour of urban culture and musical movement\, from hip hop’s birthplace in the Bronx\, to grime on London’s Eastside\, to Philly\, Detroit\, Chicago\, Atlanta\, and L.A.\, and points in between. Featuring interviews and musical performances from a diverse cast of women that includes Remy Ma\, Rah Digga\, Jean Grae\, Erykah Badu\, Estelle\, as well as newcomers Chocolate Thai\, Invincible and Miz Korona\, this powerful documentary delves into the amazing personal stories of women balancing professional dreams with the stark realities of poor urban communities\, race\, sexism\, and motherhood. The more than 18 artists featured in SAY MY NAME battle for a place in a society that creates few chances for women. From emerging artists filled with new creativity\, to true pioneers like MC Lyte\, Roxxanne Shante\, and Monie Love\, these are women turning adversity into art.
