SUMMARY:Lecture: Dr. Dora Apel (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Why We Need a National Lynching Memorial\nThis talk examines the controversy over a national lynching memorial and argues that how we remember the past is crucial to changing the present and future. The Memorial to Peace and Justice\, dedicated to the nation’s thousands of lynching victims\, and an accompanying museum on Black history from slavery to mass incarceration opened in Montgomery\, Alabama\, in the midst of resurgent white nationalism\, continuing attacks on Blacks and people of color\, debates over immigrants and refugees\, and controversies over Confederate monuments. What is the political basis of white supremacist ideology? What is the role of women in white supremacist ideology? How does the ongoing construction of memory inherently structure a collective way of knowing that changes our understanding of racial and ethnic oppression and the ongoing struggles for equality and social justice? \nDora Apel is a cultural critic and art historian who writes about politics\, culture\, and visual imagery. Her focus is on traumatic imagery and memory\, race and ethnicity\, gender and sexuality\, cities and ruins\, war and the failures of capitalism. She is the author of six books\, including Calling Memory into Place; Beautiful Terrible Ruins: Detroit and the Anxiety of Decline; War Culture and the Contest of Images; Imagery of Lynching: Black Men\, White Women\, and the Mob; Lynching Photographs (co-authored with Shawn Michelle Smith); and Memory Effects: The Holocaust and the Art of Secondary Witnessing. She is the W. Hawkins Ferry Endowed Chair Professor Emerita of Modern and Contemporary Art History at Wayne State  University. \nClick here to join the meeting at 5pm on January 19th.

SUMMARY:Critical Studies Lecture: Alpesh Kantilal Patel (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Alpesh Kantilal Patel. Photo: Sarah C. Blanchette \nMultiple and One: Global Queer Art Histories\nIn a 1974 essay\, poet and theorist Édouard Glissant presciently wrote that “diversity needs the presence of peoples\, no longer as objects to be swallowed up\, but with the intention of creating a new relation.” My forthcoming book project “Multiple and One: Global Queer Art Histories” allows for such new relations and affiliations to emerge among artworks. Drawing on concepts from Glissant’s rich lexicon such as “archipelago\,” “opacity\,” and “errantry\,” Patel will stage collisions and encounters between artworks exploring queer issues that may appear unrelated at first glance. He does so to enact\, perform\, and instantiate cross-cultural contexts for sexual artistic geographies\, and thereby brings into being a new world of intimacy and relationality across multiple times and spaces. \nAlpesh Kantilal Patel is associate professor of contemporary art and theory at Florida International University. His art historical scholarship\, curating and criticism reflect his queer\, anti-racist\, and transnational approach to contemporary art. He is the author of Productive failure: writing queer transnational South Asian art histories (2017) and co-editor of the forthcoming Storytellers of Art’s Histories and a special journal issue commemorating Okwui Enwezor for Nka: Journal of Contemporary African Art (both 2021).  His next major book project is titled Multiple and One: Global Queer Art Histories. In 2016\, he was a critical studies fellow at Cranbrook Academy of Art. \nRegistration is required\, please use the RSVP button to register.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Beatriz Colomina (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Architecture in the Age of Pandemics: From Tuberculosis to COVID 19\nArchitecture and medicine have always been tightly interlinked. Architectural discourse weaves itself through theories of body and brain\, constructing the architect as a kind of doctor and the client as patient. Every age has its signature afflictions and each affliction has its architecture. The age of bacterial diseases\, particularly tuberculosis\, gave birth to modern architecture\, to white buildings detached from the “humid ground where disease breeds\,” as Le Corbusier put it. The discovery of streptomycin put an end to that age. \nIn the postwar years\, attention shifted to psychological problems. The architect was not seen just as a doctor but as a shrink\, the house not just a medical device for the prevention of disease\, but for providing psychological comfort\, “nervous health.” The twenty-first century is the age of neurological disorders: depression\, ADHD\, borderline personality disorders\, burnout syndrome and allergies—the “environmentally hypersensitive” unable to live in the modern world. But pandemics have returned. \nWith COVID-19\, a virus is completely reshaping architecture and urbanism and once again disease exposes the structural inequities of race\, class and gender. Will architectural discourse and practice likewise reshape itself? \nBeatriz Colomina is the Howard Crosby Butler Professor of the History of Architecture and the Founding Director of the Media and Modernity Program at Princeton University. She writes and curates on questions of design\, art\, sexuality and media. Her books include Sexuality and Space (Princeton Architectural Press\, 1992)\, Privacy and Publicity: Modern Architecture as Mass Media (MIT\, 1994)\, Domesticity at War (ACTAR and MIT\, 2006)\, Clip/Stamp/Fold: The Radical Architecture of Little Magazines with Craig Buckley (ACTAR\, 2010)\, Are We Human? Notes on an Archeology of Design with Mark Wigley ((Lars Müller\, 2016) and X-Ray Architecture (Lars Müller 2019) \nThis lecture is generously supported by the J. Robert F. Swanson Lecture Fund. \nAbout the J. Robert F. Swanson Lecture Fund\nThe J. Robert F. Swanson Lecture Fund at Cranbrook Academy of Art was established in 1983 by the family of J. Robert F. Swanson\, a noted architect who was also the son-in-law of Eliel Saarinen. Each year\, the Swanson Lecture brings to the Cranbrook campus architects\, designers\, artists or scholars who have received critical acclaim for their work and enjoy a sustained record of excellence and achievement in their respective fields. J. Robert F. Swanson and his wife and lifelong design partner\, Pipsan Saarinen Swanson\, founded their firm Swanson Associates in 1947 and worked on many exteriors and interiors\, including residences\, schools\, universities\, churches\, airports\, banks\, and government\, industrial and commercial projects

SUMMARY:CANCELLED - Lecture: Johanna Grawunder
DESCRIPTION:CANCELLATION NOTICE: As a precautionary measure\, we have made the decision to cancel the Johanna Grawunder lecture scheduled for March 12. We do not feel it is safe to ask Johanna to travel to Michigan at this time due to the many uncertainties presented by the coronavirus (COVID-19). The health and safety of our guests\, students\, and staff always come first\, and we hope to be able to welcome her to campus at a future date. \nEach year\, through the generosity of an endowment from Knoll International\, the Knoll Lecture Series at Cranbrook Academy of Art brings a renowned designer to campus for a free public lecture to promote the importance of design and build discussions with the Academy students. \nThis year\, Johanna Grawunder will deliver the lecture\, “CONCEPT”. Every project has a story. Whether a large-scale lighting installation\, a unique art-design custom commission or a mass-produced product\, the story we choose the tell is the driver of the design. Sometimes the story is a direct programmatic request or user-centered objective but for my work\, the main story is CONCEPT.  \nConcepts can develop from external interests- “pay attention to what you pay attention to”- as well as project-specific inspirations. They are a self-imposed framework around which my work is developed\, decisions are made and explained\, use of resources is justified (sometimes). Conceptual design is an abstract and idiosyncratic process expressed in everything from materials and color to the title of a thing.  \n  \nDesigner/artist Johanna Grawunder works on a broad range of projects\, including large-scale public lighting and color installations\, exhibition design\, architectural interventions and interiors\, and limited-edition furniture and light collections. Recent projects include a new Light Art collection for Carpenters Workshop Gallery\,  the personal exhibition “Alone Together” for Assab One in Milan\, exhibition design of the show “Van Cleef & Arpels: Time\, Nature\, Love” in Palazzo Reale Milano\, and “Coding”\, an immersive light installation recently completed for San Francisco International Airport\, and part of the permanent collection of the City and County of San Francisco.  \nTrained as an architect\, she was drawn to the medium of light early on and has tried to incorporate architectural principles and scale\, non-precious building materials and high technology light research into her designs.  \n Her work is included in many museum permanent collections\, including the High Museum Atlanta\, LACMA\, CNAP\, SFMOMA\, The Museum of Fine Arts\, Houston\, Art Institute Chicago\, Denver Art Museum and Musée des Arts Décoratifs Paris.  \n With a degree in Architecture from California Polytechnic University San Luis Obispo\, she studied and worked with Gianni Pettena and Cristiano Toraldo di Francia of Superstudio in Florence (1984-1985) then moved to Milan to work with Sottsass Associati (1985-2001)\, becoming a partner in 1989. At Sottsass Associati she was involved primarily with architecture and interiors\, co-designing with Ettore Sottsass\, many of the firm’s most prestigious projects.  In 2001 she opened her own design studio in San Francisco and Milan.  \n  \nSponsored by Knoll Lecture in Design. \n All lectures are free and held in deSalle Auditorium at Cranbrook Art Museum.

SUMMARY:Lecture: Paula Wilson
DESCRIPTION:Lecture Title: Mooning  \nPaula Wilson will discuss her multimedia practice that intermixes layered collage\, installation\, video\, painting\, and printmaking. Her subject matter is equally multifaceted. Drawing her inspiration from cultural and natural histories\, she reimages and reconstructs her worldview as a biracial Black woman. Her work often burst from the wall or frame\, a constant re-assembly of lived experiences: black and white\, urban and rural\, traditional and contemporary\, singular and collective. Wilson will also speak about her relocation in 2007 from New York City to the high desert town of Carrizozo\, New Mexico (population 996) where she co-runs the artist-founded organization MoMAZoZo and the Carrizozo Artist in Residency.  \n  \nVisual Artist Paula Wilson was born in Chicago\, Illinois\, and is currently based in Carrizozo\, New Mexico. Wilson’s most recent solo exhibitions were Entangled\, at 516 Arts\, Albuquerque\, NM (2019)\, The Light Becomes You\, at Denny Dimin Gallery\, New York\, NY (2018)\, and Spread Wild\, Pleasures of the Yucca\, at Smack Mellon\, Brooklyn\, NY (2018). She has been featured in publications such as Hyperallergic\, Artforum\, The New York Times\, and The New Yorker. Wilson’s artwork is in many collections including\, The Studio Museum in Harlem\, the New York Public Library\, Yale University\, and Saatchi Gallery. She holds a Master of Fine Art from Columbia University.  \n  \nSponsored by the Print Media Department  \n All lectures are free and held in deSalle Auditorium at Cranbrook Art Museum.  \n

SUMMARY:Lecture: Katja Prins
DESCRIPTION:Lecture Title: Brave New World \nKatja Prins will discuss her practice as a jewelry artist\, which has evolved over the last 22 years. This lecture will focus in particular on her fascination with the relationship between technology and the human body. Specifically engaged with how technology functions as our support structure\, she is both anxious and excited about the simultaneously healing-protective and toxic-destructive properties of technology. This ambivalent fascination provides her with imagery that is reflected through her work. \nKatja Prins (Haarlem\, NL\, 1970) graduated at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in 1997 and has been working as an independent jewelry artist ever since. She has had solo and group exhibitions in Europe\, USA\, Asia and Russia. \nShe has also lectured and taught at various institutions such as Hiko Minzuno College\, Tokyo\, JP\, Tainan National University of the Arts\, Tainan\, TW\, Savannah College of Art and Design\, Savannah\, USA\, RISD\, Providence\, USA\, University of Arts & Design Samara\, RU\, Konstfack\, Stockholm\, SE\, Alchimia\, Florence\, IT and the Gerrit Rietveld Academy\, Amsterdam\, NL. \nHer work can be found in public collections such as Cooper Hewitt Museum New York\, USA\, Museum of Arts and Design New York\, USA\, Rijksmuseum Amsterdam\, NL\, SM’s Stedelijk Museum ‘s Hertogenbosch\, NL\, Mint Museum of Craft & Design\, Charlotte\, USA\, CODA Museum Apeldoorn\, NL\, Museum Arnhem\, NL\, Musée des Beaux Arts\, Marseille\, France and the Schmuck Museum\, Pforzheim\, DE. \nIn 2009 she published her monography “The Uncanny Valley”\, which gives an overview of all her work. She’s been nominated for the Mari Funaki Award for Contemporary Jewelry 2016 and the Design Award Rotterdam 1999\, Museum Boymans-van Beuningen\, NL and won the Darling Publications Jeweller of the Year Award 2009. \n  \nSponsored by the Metalsmithing Department at Cranbrook Academy of Art.  \n  \nAll lectures are free and held in deSalle Auditorium at Cranbrook Art Museum.
