SUMMARY:The Negro Motorist Green Book
DESCRIPTION:“The Negro Motorist Green Book” guided Black Americans to thousands of businesses for over thirty years. When the first “Green Book” was published\, the American road was a metaphor for freedom: freedom to change your present situation\, determine your destiny\, and travel. Yet\, in 20th-century America\, this same road was a dangerous place for Black travelers. The land was divided by segregation — through policy and through custom. For Black people\, the prejudice was severe: a systematic effort to deny their basic human rights. In an era of Jim Crow laws and “sundown towns\,” communities that explicitly prohibited Black travelers from staying overnight\, the “Green Book” offered critical\, life-saving information and sanctuary. \nNow\, through The Negro Motorist Green Book\, visitors will explore film\, photographs\, interactives\, and oral histories from travelers and “Green Book” business owners; compare “Green Book” sites then and now; and appreciate historical objects from the Smithsonian and from a variety of “Green Book” sites. The exhibition includes artifacts from business signs and postcards to historic footage\, images\, and firsthand accounts that illustrate not just the apprehension felt by Black travelers\, but also the resilience\, innovation\, and elegance of people choosing to live a full American existence. \nDeveloped by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service (SITES) in collaboration with award-winning author\, photographer\, and cultural documentarian\, Candacy Taylor\, Green Book offers an immersive look at the historic reality of travel for Black Americans and how the guide served as an indispensable resource for the rise of the Black leisure class in the United States. The exhibition highlights destinations created by Black Americans and strategies that affirmed their humanity\, their worth\, their light\, and their lives – and how it was done with ingenuity\, community\, and with help from Victor Green and his travel guide: “The Negro Motorist Green Book.”

SUMMARY:Aesthetics of Loss
DESCRIPTION:AESTHETICS OF LOSS is a collection of work by seven artists who have experienced loss of family members recently. Their studios became places for grieving and understanding the sudden vacuum of losing loved ones either suddenly or over a long period of illness. Caregiving\, memory\, helplessness\, loss and the ultimate mystery of death are explored through painting\, print-making\, fibers\, ceramics\, photography\, installation and video. Some artists utilize objects and clothing left behind by their loved ones and transform them into artworks and some use ritual and natural materials as memorial or commemorative actions of grieving and coming to terms. \nEbti is a multidisciplinary artist\, a self-taught photographer and a translator living between Cairo and San Francisco. She received her MFA in Fine Art from the California College of the Arts in 2021. Her practice is informed by languages\, theater\, literature\, music and her family’s making-traditions she never got to learn. Through this multi- faceted\, dislocated lens she looks at the ideas of home\, belonging\, and attachment. Though her work is rooted in photography\, she is constantly looking for new materials and methods that will best translate her ideas. Once she starts working on a project\, she embraces notions of accident and failure. Her practice is ever-evolving and is influenced by her restlessness. \nCassidy Early (b. 1994\, Worcester\, MA) is a nonbinary Scottish American artist living and working in Chicago\, IL.

Their work has been published alongside Garth Green- well’s essay Making Meaning: Against Relevance in Art in Harper’s Magazine (Nov. 2020)\, and as the LVL3 Artist of the Week (Nov. 2020). \nBrianna L. Hernández is a Chicana artist\, curator\, educator\, and death doula guided by socially-engaged values. In developing as an artist\, Brianna credits her late mother\, Sylvia D. Hernández\, as her most significant mentor. Brianna’s studio practice focuses on end-of-life care\, grieving processes\, and mourning rituals based on lived experience\, cultural research\, and collaborations with peers. In addition to formal artworks\, she offers workshops or viewers to self-educate on grief and end-of-life planning through the safety of the creative process. As a curator\, Brianna works with artists to make socially-charged topics publicly accessible in order to create opportunities for education and empathy. She also collaborates with community health researchers to incorporate the arts into public health projects through curatorial consulting. Brianna proudly serves as Director of Curation and Board Secretary at Ma’s House & BIPOC Art Studio on the Shinnecock Indian Reservation in Southampton\, New York. \nLinda b.

SUMMARY:Ukraine Will Resurrect!
DESCRIPTION:We invite you to the exhibition UKRAINE WILL RESURRECT!\nApril 7-30\, 2023.\nOpening: Friday\, April 7 at 7:00 p.m.\nFor over a year\, each event in the Ukrainian National Museum is a reminder of the war against Ukraine by russian terrorists\, which takes the best\, killing children\, schoolchildren\, students\, civilians\, and soldiers who defend the whole world from Putin’s aggression.\nThe international exhibit titled “Unissued Diplomas and their unwritten Easter eggs” showcases posthumously issued diplomas to students from Ukraine. The photos of students\, the spiritual meaning of Easter\, and the unwritten Easter eggs tell a sacred story of deceased people. These students died from rocket attacks and shelling during the evacuation\, while on a volunteer mission\, or during fierce battles on the front line.\n“Unissued Diplomas” is a documentary in memory of those Ukrainian students who perished as a result of russian aggression against Ukraine and will never become graduates.\nFebruary 24\, 2022\, is written in history as the day when Ukraine woke to air raid sirens\, rockets\, and shelling.\nThe Kyiv-Mohyla Academy exchange program at the University of Toronto and the Ukrainian-Canadian Union of Students (SUSK) were the organizers of the project – “We want to honor the memory of Ukrainian students who sacrificed their education\, life goals\, aspirations\, and dreams for the sake of our country.”\nThe international exhibition is presented in 45 universities and many Ukrainian embassies in 22 countries.\nThe Ukrainian National Museum supports Mark Tomashek’s initiative\, a student from Lviv\, and community activist Liliia Popovych from Chicago\, and presents this project within the exhibition “UKRAINE WILL RESURRECT!”. The show was previously displayed at the University of Illinois.\nMuseum visitors will enjoy a fantastic palette of Pysanky (Easter Eggs). The exhibit will include pysanky created by Anna Chychula\, Pysanka Artist (Pysankarka)\, from Oleg Kurylo’s private collection\, and paintings from the museum’s collection. Anna Chychula learned the art of writing pysanky from her mother\, Parania Dudycz\, who survived World War II as a young woman and came to the US as a refugee from the Displaced Persons Camps with her husband Ivan and their young children. Anna’s pysanky are amulets embedded with prayers for the Victory of Ukraine and faith in its Armed Forces. Symbols for Easter eggs are carefully selected. The octagonal star symbolizes the unity of two crosses and creates harmony and peace; oak leaves are symbols of strength.\nTogether to Victory!\nCurator Maria Klimchak\, co-curator Anna Chychula.

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.

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.
