SUMMARY:From Love II: Intimacy Through the Lens of Incarceration
DESCRIPTION:From Love II: Intimacy Through the Lens of Incarceration explores sex and sexuality through erotic art\, research based articles\, poetry\, paintings\, photos\, objects\, and ephemera\, created by currently incarcerated artists and their loved ones.  \n“Intimacy is a human right. The carceral system prohibits people from exercising that right\, a basic human need\, a salve. Healing is stolen from us.” JW \nThe exhibit exposes conditions that deny intimacy\, and highlights how intimacy is reclaimed\, maintained or lost. It sheds light on the struggle to sustain intimate relationships on the outside\, while serving time inside a system that denies people of basic human rights\, destroys families\, and is designed to break both body and spirit.  \nWith this in mind\, From Love II reminds us that fantasy\, pleasure\, sex\, and intimacy\, continue to serve as radical acts of resistance and liberation. Join us in the fight! \nPlease note\, this exhibition explores themes\, imagery\, and language that may be considered sensitive or provocative. Viewer discretion is advised\, as the content may include explicit or challenging subjects. We encourage thoughtful engagement and respectful dialogue as you experience the artwork presented. Some portions of this exhibit may not be suitable for all audiences. \nArtwork is for sale\, with prices available upon request\, and proceeds going directly to the artists. For more information\, please email singsingfamilycollective@gmail.com \nThank you for witnessing this work\, for being in community with us. \nLove & Solidarity\,\nAnna Adler & Joseph Wilson\, Sing Sing Family Collective\, August 2024 \nExhibit Dates: August 16-26\, 2024\nGallery Hours (Starting August 16):\nMon-Fri: 10AM-4PM\nSaturday\, August 17 10AM-6PM\nSaturday\, August 24 10AM-5PM \nOpening Reception: Saturday\, August 17\, 2024 4-6PM\nArtist Talk: Saturday\, August 24\, 2024 4-5PM \nCurated by Anna Adler &\nJoseph Wilson\nc/o Sing Sing Family Collective \nFeaturing…\nSircobra\nEllis Douglas\nBismark Lithgow\nDyego Foddrell\nJohn J.

SUMMARY:CALL FOR ARTWORK SUBMISSIONS: "I'm Scared" Art Show
DESCRIPTION:Call for Artwork Submissions for “I’m Scared” Art Show\n\n\nGallery Dates: October 4-31\, 2024\n\n\n“I’m Scared” Themes + Questions\nWhat does it truly mean to be scared? What are the shadows that haunt your thoughts? What are the things that keep you awake at night\, and what should we genuinely fear? \nI’m Scared will be an exhibition that plunges into the depths of human fear\, both conceptually and literally\, attempting to evoke reaction and send shivers down your spine. This show is not merely about showcasing artworks; it’s about creating an experience that challenges our perceptions of fear and allows us to confront them. \nFrom the seemingly trivial childhood dread of monsters lurking under the bed to the profound\, soul-shaking horrors that grip us as adults\, I’m Scared aims to represent a large spectrum of fear. We plan to feature a diverse array of works that resonate with audiences of many different demographics and backgrounds\, tapping into both universal and deeply personal terrors. \n\nSubmissions due by Friday\, September 6\, 2024 at 11:59PM\nNotifications: Friday\, September 13\, 2024\nSubmissions made outside of Submittable will not be accepted\, see link below! \nTo learn more about dates\, details\, guidelines\, and to apply – click here!\n\n\nIf you have any questions\, email Curator Lexi Rudley at alexar@bethanyarts.org.

SUMMARY:NIGHT SHIFT - Paintings by Fred Schuback
DESCRIPTION:NIGHT SHIFT – Paintings by Fred Schuback\nSeptember 7-26\, 2024\nOpening Reception: September 7\, 2024 2-4PM \nJoin us at Bethany Arts Community for NIGHT SHIFT\, an exhibit showcasing the evocative paintings of the late Fred Schuback. This exhibition offers a glimpse into Schuback’s unique artistic vision\, featuring works that capture his exploration of New York City’s underbelly. \nA preview of Fred Schuback’s work is available at www.fredschuback.com. \nAbout Fred Schuback \nIn order to support himself\, Frederick Schuback drove a yellow cab in New York City in the 1970’s and ‘80’s. He chose the night shift\, which gave him the freedom to paint during the mornings when the light was best in his Alphabet City studio. He rendered the people and places he had seen during the night with a vivid palette that may have been influenced by his childhood in Mexico. \nWhen Schuback was active\, New York was considered the epicenter of the art world. The city’s explosive creative energy and vast wealth had enabled unconventional artists like Andy Warhol\, Jean-Michel Basquiat\, Keith Haring and others to reach unprecedented levels of fame and glory. \nAs an artist\, Schuback was beginning to achieve recognition in the late 1980’s. He had earned a BFA from Pratt Institute and had had several critically acclaimed shows\, including a one-man exhibit at the Federal Courthouse in lower Manhattan. But he struggled with poor mental health and\, in 1992 at the age of 42\, he lost that battle. \nHis legacy lives on thanks to Pratt Institute’s Fred Schuback Scholarship\, which was established by the Schuback family\, and each year awards a monetary prize to a promising fine art student. A portion of the proceeds of this exhibit will go toward that scholarship. \nExhibit Dates: September 7-26\, 2024 \nGallery Hours (Starting September 9):\nMon-Fri: 10AM-4PM\nSaturday\, September 14 & 21 10AM-4PM \nOpening Reception: Saturday\, September 7\, 2024 2-4PM

SUMMARY:"meditation on what America+utopia might =" Work-in-Process Showing with Mary Armentrout
DESCRIPTION:meditation on what America+utopia might = Work-in-Process Showing with Mary Armentrout\nDate & Time: Saturday\, September 21\, 2024 6-7:30PM \nMary Armentrout presents a work-in-progress showing of her newest project: meditation on what America+utopia might =. This dance-theater performance-installation weaves together a de-construction of some of the colonialist tendencies still embedded in current American culture through the central figure of “the lady in the black dress\,” with an absurdist but deeply serious dive into the fraught but beautiful tendency of Americans to yearn for utopia\, which historically has not turned out particularly well for us – yet! “The lady in the black dress” is a metaphorical device\, a ghostly\, historically illogical\, Victorian presence with meta-tendencies towards humor\, towards complication\, towards philosophical inquiry\, towards both communal reckoning and community making\, who engages her audiences in collective puzzling about how we get closer to the future we want from the pasts and presents we find ourselves enmeshed in. \nDuring this roving site specific performance installation\, the audience will visit several different spaces within the grounds of the BAC. Please wear shoes for easy walking\, we will be inside and outside on the lawn\, and there will be stairs. Please do not hesitate to let us know if you have mobility or disability issues or concerns; we aim to accommodate them\, email Julia at julias@bethanyarts.org. \nAbout Mary\nMary Armentrout is a San Francisco Bay Area-based experimental choreographer\, performance artist\, videographer\, teacher\, and the director of the Mary Armentrout Dance Theater. Armentrout calls her genre-mixing site-specific works performance installations; recent awards include an Isadora Duncan Dance Award and an EMPAC commission. Her works problematize the lived experience of intentionality and presence\, and include the audience’s role as a key element of the performance equation. She installs work in both conventional and site-specific venues\, and MADT has been presented at numerous venues all over the San Francisco Bay Area\, as well as across the US and the UK\, Europe\, and China\, recently touring to universities across the states and the UK\, as well as the Brighton Fringe and the San Francisco International Arts Festival. For her EMPAC commission at RPI\, she created a site specific piece\, listening creates an opening\, that journeyed from the RPI campus through the town of Troy to the banks of the Hudson River\, which subsequently toured to the city blocks around ODC Theater in San Francisco\, and through the Sarah Lawrence College campus. \nShe teaches a variety of movement\, composition and Feldenkrais modalities\, both to a thriving local community and as a guest artist nationally and internationally\, and was recently voted a “Best of the East Bay” dance teacher in the local independent newspaper The East Bay Express. She also is the organizer of the Dance Discourse Project\, an on-going series of artist-curated discussions on the Bay Area dance scene\, and co-curates the mixed performance salon The Milkbar at her home studio in Richmond CA \nThis event is a Residency Community Program. As part of a residency at BAC\, we ask each artist to build and facilitate a Community Program. Community Programs are a unique opportunity for both artists-in-residence and our local community to gather\, engage\, and be in conversation with one another through art.

SUMMARY:Everyone Has a Story to Tell! Storytelling Workshop with BAC Artist-in-Residence Kona Morris
DESCRIPTION:Everyone Has a Story to Tell! Storytelling Workshop\nwith BAC Artist-in-Residence Kona Morris\nDate & Time: Thursday\, September 26\, 7 – 8:30PM \nJoin writer and storyteller Kona Morris (The Moth\, RISK!) for a crafting workshop to generate story ideas and learn how to structure them for optimal audience engagement. Bring a notebook and your most vivid memories!   \nMore About The Workshop\nStorytelling is both unique and universal. Our stories are what make us stand out as individuals\, but also what allows us to relate and have empathy for one another. The desire to share our stories is in our DNA. For as long as our ancestors could speak\, they were telling each other stories—to entertain\, to share learned wisdoms\, and to process intense experiences. It is a medium like no other because it encompasses every person on the planet\, no matter their background\, field of study\, or walk of life.  \nIn this 90-minute workshop\, we will start with a “Story Mining” exercise that provides prompts to help you remember your most important stories. Then we will cover storytelling techniques and tools for structuring successful stories. We will talk about the importance of a strong ending\, and how to tailor it for your specific audience and purpose. You will leave this workshop with a list of your best stories—and with the inspiration and confidence to share them!   \nAbout Kona\nKona Morris is a writer\, storyteller\, and comedian. She has won The Moth StorySLAM in Los Angeles\, and she’s been featured on national podcasts such as RISK!\, Monkey Tooth\, and It’s Funny Now. Kona starred in Denver’s Live Drunk History Comedy Troupe\, and her short stories and articles have appeared in a variety of publications.  \nTo learn more about Kona: https://konamorris.com/  \nThis event is a Fall Multidisciplinary Residency Community Program. As part of a residency at BAC\, we ask each artist to build and facilitate a Community Program.

Since 2011\, Ziedah has created participatory art experiences independently and in collaboration with cultural organizers\, teachers\, poets\, healers and playwrights.

She now explores these same themes through facilitated art-making and storytelling experiences.

SUMMARY:Lost My Mind\, But I Think You Have It (WIP Showing) with BAC Artist-in-Residence Matthew Flatley
DESCRIPTION:Lost My Mind\, But I Think You Have It (WIP Showing)\nwith BAC Artist-in-Residence Matthew Flatley\nDate & Time: Thursday\, October 3\, 2024 2-3:30PM \nPlease join us for a studio showing and discussion of Matthew Flatley’s current work-in-progress ‘Lost My Mind\, But I Think You Have It’. Inspired by the common saying ‘one step forward\, two steps back’\, the piece examines the habit of repeating old patterns that prevent us from moving forward in life\, and physically explores the various ways a single impulse can move the body through space. Utilizing micro-movements and hyper-segmentation of conventional pathways\, the choreography aims to simultaneously appear both formal and fractured. After the showing\, there will be an open discussion between the choreographer and audience members.  \nAbout Matthew\nMatthew Flatley is a Brooklyn based choreographer and visual artist. In 2012\, he received his BFA in Dance from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts\, and performed with Brian Brooks Moving Company from 2013-2019. He was a cast member in Third Rail Project’s immersive shows ‘Then She Fell’ and ‘The Grand Paradise’\, as well as Christopher Williams’ dance-opera ‘A Wolf in Skins’. He has also performed works by Kate Weare\, Wally Cardona\, Seán Curran\, Sonya Tayeh\, Tyce Diorio\, and Deborah Jowitt. As a choreographer\, his work has been presented at The Museum of Art and Design\, TEMP Art Space\, Skirball Center for the Performing Arts\, Ailey Citigroup Theatre\, and the Salvatore Capezio Theatre. He also choreographed the music video ‘Renaissance Girls’ for recording artist\, Oh Land. Far from subtle\, he prefers to tackle societal norms and expectations with an in-your-face aggressiveness that blurs the line between obscene and refined.\n \nThis event is a Fall Multidisciplinary Residency Community Program. As part of a residency at BAC\, we ask each artist to build and facilitate a Community Program. Community Programs are a unique opportunity for both artists-in-residence and our local community to gather\, engage\, and be in conversation with one another through art.

SUMMARY:I'M SCARED
DESCRIPTION:I’M SCARED\nOctober 4-31\, 2024\nOpening Reception: Thursday\, October 10\, 2024 5:30-7:30PM \n\nWhat does it truly mean to be scared? What are the shadows that haunt your thoughts? What are the things that keep you awake at night\, and what should we genuinely fear?\n\n\n\nI’m Scared is an exhibition that plunges into the depths of human fear\, both conceptually and literally\, attempting to evoke reaction and send shivers down your spine. This show is not merely about showcasing artworks; it’s about creating an experience that challenges our perceptions of fear and allows us to confront them.\n\n\n\nFrom the seemingly trivial childhood dread of monsters lurking under the bed to the profound\, soul-shaking horrors that grip us as adults\, I’m Scared aims to represent a large spectrum of fear. We plan to feature a diverse array of works that resonate with audiences of many different demographics and backgrounds\, tapping into both universal and deeply personal terrors.\n\nExhibit Dates: October 4-31\, 2024\n\nGallery Hours (Starting October 4):\nMon-Fri: 10AM-4PM\nSaturday\, October 5 – Open to those enjoying ARToberFest-ivites\, click here to learn more!\nSaturday\, October 19 – 10AM-4PM \nOpening Reception: Thursday\, October 10\, 2024 5:30-7:30PM

SUMMARY:Sip & Stitch with BAC Artist-in-Residence Dawn Bisio - Green Drinks @ Sing Sing Kill Brewery
DESCRIPTION:Green Drinks: “Sip & Stitch”\nwith BAC Artist-in-Residence Dawn Bisio\nDate & Time: Thursday\, October 24\, 2024 7-9PM\nLocation: Sing Sing Kill Brewery – 75 Spring Street\, Ossining\, NY 10562 \nRegister Here!  \nLearn Sashiko! Sashiko is a traditional Japanese embroidery technique used for repairing clothes and creating a unique style. In this hands-on workshop\, visual artist\, Dawn Bisio\, demonstrates how to patch a hole and two basic stitches: the running stitch and the cross stitch. All materials are included and you will complete the workshop with your very own patch to take home that you can use to decorate or repair a piece of clothing of your own! In partnership with Green Ossining and Sing Sing Kill Brewery.     \n*If you’d like to bring a piece of scrap fabric from home\, a loose weave cotton or linen is recommended.   \nAbout Dawn\nDawn Bisio is a Korean American painter and installation artist based in the Mohawk Valley of NY. She is best known for her colorful\, multi-layered acrylic abstract paintings and her contemplative mixed media installations. Her work also delves into printmaking\, gestural paintings\, encaustics\, and illuminated pieces in a range of scales and media. Aside from acrylic paint\, she preferences the use of fabric\, natural materials\, and found objects. While her paintings and other 2D works often begin loosely and spontaneously and develop in an improvisational fashion\, her installations are carefully thought-out pieces involving significant planning\, engineering\, and exploration of a specific theme\, such as identity\, the environment\, and women.  \nDuring her residency at BAC\, Dawn will be working on an installation\, called Threads of Tomorrow: Fashioning Sustainability. Clothing over-production and fast fashion cause enormous pollution from carbon emissions\, polluted water\, and overflowing landfills. As a self-proclaimed recovering clothes horse\, this installation is Dawn’s way of helping to protect our precious natural resources. Using all recycled fabrics/clothing as a canvas for this installation\, Dawn will have eight “paintings”- two rows of four paintings facing each other\, with a large sculpture of a coat with tails in forward motion in the middle\, as if it were an invisible figure running down the hall. Though the piece is about recycling textiles and protecting the environment\, it’s also about freedom; freedom for a brighter future and freedom of the mind to change and adapt.  \nFind Dawn:\nwww.dawnbisio.art \nInstagram: @dawnbisioart  \nThis event is a Fall Multidisciplinary Residency Community Program. As part of a residency at BAC\, we ask each artist to build and facilitate a Community Program.

SUMMARY:Materiality and Memory with Karen Ami & Pamela Irving
DESCRIPTION:Materiality and Memory with Karen Ami & Pamela Irving of The Chicago Mosaic School\nDates & Times: Friday-Monday\, November 1-4\, 2024 9AM-5PM\nCost: $500.00 \nRegister Here!  \nIn this 4-day experimental mosaic workshop\, artists Karen Ami (US) and Pamela Irving (Australia) bring their expertise and collaborative experience to Bethany to teach Materiality and Memory\, a workshop to develop your art practice and expand your creative language. Karen and Pamela will lead students through a series of exercises that will evoke and explore aspects of personal memory and individual subjective experience while also addressing more general and abstract ideas through mosaic\, collage and writing. \nThis workshop is ideal for artists looking to find their own style and voice through material artmaking and creating ideas and awareness for future works. Over the 4-day workshop\, students will be doing individual as well as collaborative exercises that will open new methods for developing artistic ideas through play and experimentation. Mosaic\, collage and writing are how we can learn to express those ideas to build our expression and practices. \nWe ask that participants bring copies of family photos (people places things)\, small mementos (an odd earring\, a coin\, a stone\, etc.)\, any additional materials they would like to use in a mosaic (Broken dishes\, etc.). Students will be given workbooks\, some drawing and other materials and use of tools that are included with the workshop. \nAbout Karen\nKaren Ami is passionate about facilitating collaborations\, sharing knowledge and an informed understanding of mosaic art. and continues to be an ambassador for the school and the art form. In addition to establishing and leading CMS for 18 years\, she is a curator\, lecturer and practitioner and is currently pursuing a PhD in Creative Studies. MFA\, School of the Art Institute of Chicago\, BFA\, The Boston Museum School/Tufts University. She has exhibited in over 24 countries and her works can be found in many public and private collections.\nhttps://karenami.com/ \nAbout Pamela\nPamela Irving is well known throughout the world for creating works that are full of color and character\, whimsy and subversion. Her large-scale installations can be seen around the city of Melbourne\, most notably at Luna Park and Patterson Station (an international mosaic mural collaboration which she facilitated over several years). Pamela’s use of materials- broken china\, found objects\, and ceramic shards shows her unique approach to mosaic art.\nhttps://www.pamelairving.com.au/ \nLearn more about The Chicago Mosaic School here!
