SUMMARY:From BordersCruzadas to Borderlines
DESCRIPTION:Immigration is one of the most politicized issues in the United States\, as politicians across both aisles debate the fate of people fleeing violence\, poverty\, trafficking\, hunger\, and [political instability. ART WORKS Projects presents From BordersCruzadas to Borderlines\, a discussion between photographers Will Sands\, Oscar Castillo (BordersCruzadas project] and Cathy Edelman\, from Illinois based nonprofit CASE Art Fund [Borderlines exhibition]\, presenting two sides of a very complex issue facing the US Southern border. \nBordersCruzadas: A Collaborative Story recognizes that people impacted by displacement are often excluded from the conversations that determine their fate. Through documentary photography and content collaboratively created with four people fleeing their homeland\, BordersCruzadas explores the physical and symbolic boundaries that define the lived experience of those seeking to cross the United States’ southern border. \nBorderlines is CASE Art Fund’s ongoing photographic exhibition about the Juarez/Texas/New Mexico border. At Expo Chicago\, CASE will recreate the Sunland Park\, NM desert\, the site of the most recent cros­­sings in the El Paso region. The exhibition includes photographs of the terrain\, objects found in the desert\, photographs and videos of helicopters and border patrol searching the desert\, and a poignant interview from a local proprietor whose business is the site of most desert crossings today and in 2022. \nFrom BordersCruzadas to Borderlines will be held in person at ART WORKS Projects\, 625 N Kingsbury St\, Chicago\, on Wednesday\, April 12. \nDoors open at 5 pm to for an early preview of an exhibition in development\, BordersCruzadas. \nThe presentation and discussion will be from 6:00 – 7:15 pm.

SUMMARY:Chicago Latino Film Festival
DESCRIPTION:The Chicago Latino Film Festival began in 1985 with 14 films projected onto a concrete wall for an audience of 500. Today\, the Festival screens close to 100 films from all over Latin America\, the Caribbean\, Spain\, Portugal and the United States. \nThe Festival offers Chicago film lovers from all walks of life the opportunity to view films that might otherwise be inaccessible because they have yet to secure a distributor or streaming deal. Its programming reflects recent trends in Iberoamerican cinema\, from films that have become a sensation in the international festival circuit or were box-office hits in their country of origin or have yet to be released theatrically. \nThe Chicago Latino Film Festival is produced by the International Latino Cultural Center of Chicago\, a pan-Latino\, nonprofit\, multidisciplinary arts organization dedicated to developing\, promoting and increasing awareness of Latino cultures by presenting a wide variety of art forms and education including film\, music\, dance\, visual arts\, comedy and theater. Imperative to the ILCC mission is to increase cultural opportunities for the Latino community\, as well as\, create a cultural dialogue amongst Latinos and non-Latinos to discuss universal cross-cultural experiences.

SUMMARY:Book Talk in Lithuanian: Prof G. Subačius on Simonas Daukantas' Orthography
DESCRIPTION:Kviečiame į susitikimą su Ilinojaus Universiteto profesoriumi\, kalbininku Giedriumi Subačiumi\, kuris neseniai išleido įspūdingo dydžio veikalą „Simono Daukanto Sankt Peterburgo ortografija (1834-1846)“. Susitikime galima bus sužinoti daugiau apie Daukanto gyvenimą ir jo darbus. Daukanto asmenybė\, veikla ir svarba mūsų istorijai vis dar nėra plačiai žinoma. \nTaigi\, ką mes apie Daukantą žinome\, ko nežinome ir ko\, gal būt\, niekada nesužinosime. Profesorius Subačius – tikras Daukanto ekspertas\, apie šią asmenybę rašęs dar savo disertacijoje\, o pastaruoju metu prie jos sugrįžęs ir išleidęs jau dvi monografijas apie Daukanto rašybą. Jis papasakos apie tai\, ką Daukantas veikė Sankt Peterburge. Pavyzdžiui\, ar žinote\, kad ten jis susipažino su Valančiumi kartu darbavosi petys iš peties\, net susikūrė savą „Žemaičių akademiją“? Ar lengva ir ar pigu buvo tuo metu leisti knygas? Ar žinote\, kad Daukantas Sankt Peterburge išspausdino net 13 lietuviškų knygų ir ne visi spaustuvininkai tesuprato lietuviškus Daukanto tekstus? Kokie nauji metodai šiandien taikomi norint sužinoti rankraščių rašymo laiką? Ką apskritai mums gali pasakyti rašyba? Ar žinote\, kad stabili Daukanto rašyba susijusi su jo dvasiniu pakilimu\, o rašybos padrikumas dažnai lemtas nusiminimo\, harmonijos trūkumo ir ligų? \nApie visa tai ir daugiau – susitikime su prof. Giedriumi Subačiumi balandžio 15 dieną\, šeštadienį\, 2 val. popietų Balzeko lietuvių kultūros muziejuje Čikagoje\, 6500 S. Pulaski Rd. \nTRANSLATION: \nWe invite you to a presentation by linguist and author Prof. Giedrius Subačius\, from University of Illinois\, who has recently published an impressively sized work entitled “Simon Daukantas’ St Petersburg Orthography (1834-1846)”. The meeting will provide an opportunity to learn more about the 19th Century Lithuanian author Simonas Daukantas’ life and works. Daukantas’ personality\, activities and importance to our history are still not widely known. \nWhat is known or not known about Daukantas\, and what we may never know of him will be explored. Professor Subačius is a true expert on Daukantas\, having written about him in his dissertation\, and more recently he has returned to the subject and published two monographs on Daukantas’ writing. He will talk about what Daukantas did in St Petersburg. For example\, did you know that there he met Valančius\, worked side by side\, and even created his own “Samogitian Academy”? Was it easy and cheap to publish books at that time? Do you know that Daukantas published 13 Lithuanian books in St Petersburg and not all printers understood Daukantas’ Lithuanian texts? What new methods are used today to find out when manuscripts were written? What can spelling tell us in general? Do you know that Daukant’s stable spelling is linked to his spiritual upliftment\, and that the irregularity of his spelling is often the result of despondency\, lack of harmony and illness? \nAll this and more will be revealed at Prof. Giedrius Subačius presentation on Saturday\, April 15 at 2 p.m. at the Balzekas Museum of Lithuanian Culture in Chicago\, 6500 S. Pulaski Rd. \nLight refreshments will be served. \nFree admission. Donations and Balzekas Museum membership subscriptions very welcome. \nFor more information\, call 773-582-6500 or e-mail: info@balzekasmuseum.org. \nThis program is sponsored in part by the Members and Donors of the Balzekas Museum of Lithuanian Culture and by a CityArts grant from the City of Chicago’s Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events.

SUMMARY:Road to Utopia: Threshold KCCoC Gallery Invitational Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the Korean Cultural Center of Chicago and curated by SAIC (School of Art Institute of Chicago) KSA (Korean Student Association) Curating team\, the invitational exhibition asks each artist what their Utopia looks like. In this exhibition\, we invite you to explore the concept of Utopia through the lens of ten rising Korean artists. Each artist presents their unique vision of utopia\, which is shaped not only by their aspirations as artists\, but also by their cultural identity. By pushing the boundaries of their creativity and striving towards their own personal Utopias\, the ten artists\, inspire us to imagine utopia for ourselves and for the world we share. We hope that you will join us in experiencing the diverse stories and perspectives of these talented individuals throughout the exhibition space.
