Gallery Talk | Caminantes: Documenting Migration by Foot
What compels individuals to embark on grueling journeys by foot? How can art and scholarship collaborate to convey a more comprehensive understanding of the migratory experience? Curator Fabiola R. Delgado will moderate a conversation between artists Ronald Pizzoferrato, Erick Moreno Superlano, Francisco Llinás and Dr. Irina Troconis about the intricate dynamics of migration and agency in documenting the current Venezuelan phenomenon of "Caminantes" (walkers) –people currently traversing neighboring and distant countries by foot. This dialogue highlights the urgency of capturing the essence of these events and delves into the significance of preserving the narratives among some of the most marginalized individuals that take part of this migratory process. Nearly 8 million Venezuelans have left their country in the last decade (over a quarter of its population) making it one of the largest contemporary migration crises in the world. According to 2023 reports, it is estimated that 6,000 people leave Venezuela by foot everyday.

Workshop | Soil Compositions: Earth as Art Material
Drawing on her own relationship to soil as an architect and artist, Diana Mangaser identifies soil as a creative and generative material that shapes our surroundings. Mangaser will lead a material-focused workshop in which participants create their own unique soil compositions by selecting from an array of aggregates. As a primer for developing a deeper understanding of soil, the workshop imagines each material contributing its specific character to a personal soil structure that reflects the maker’s identity in some way. Once the soil compositions are created, participants will set them into a solid form that can both stand alone and contribute to the building of a collective structure. In this process of making, Mangaser poses questions for us to consider: What is soil? What is our relationship to soil and in what ways does it reflect on how we build our contemporary life? Participants will be asked to use organic materials during the program.

Book Discussion | Omnicide II: Mania, Doom, and the Future-in-Deception
In Jason Bahbak Mohaghegh's book, in which conceptual elaboration, storytelling, and poetics are fused in the infernal heat of the desert, the cycle of Omnicide is closed with a philosophy of doom and deception, plunging headlong into the inevitable, the fatal, and the infinite. There are certain games which can only be played at the end of worlds: their stakes are impossibly higher; their rules are unique to the collapse of all things. The author will be joined by fellow philosopher Reza Negarestani for a sequence of spirited reflections on those apocalyptic poetries of the Middle East found throughout the book—calling up the voices of Adonis, Joyce Mansour, Forugh Farrokhzad, Ibrahim al-Koni, Mahmoud Darwish, and Ahmad Shamlu.

Concert | Burnt Sugar The Arkestra Chamber Celebrates 25 Years of "Never Playing a Song the Same Way Twice"
Welcome to a two-night event kicking off a righteous celebration of Burnt Sugar The Arkestra Chamber's 25th year of "never playing a song the same way once." Burnt Sugar was formed in 1999 as a territory band, a neo-tribal thang, a community hang, a society music guild aspiring to the condition of all that is molten, glacial, racial, spacial, oceanic, mythic, antiphonal, and telepathic. The SmokeHouse vibe is all of that. As always, Burnt Sugar gives tribute to Maestro Lawrence 'Butch' Morris (1947-2013) for showing them the way and to Gregory Stephen 'Ionman' Tate (1957-2021) for creating the BSAC sonic spaceship, with gratitude to Jared Michael Nickerson who continues to steer them through a many-splendored celestial realm of cosmic noise and riddim. On the menu is a tasty lineup of BSAC family-led bands, each with their own caramelized flavor. Whatever suits you, the Burnt Sugar SmokeHouse is serving it up, free for the people. Come get some! Burnt Sugar Baby!!!
