SUMMARY:Blue Beauty: Cyanotypes (one session)
DESCRIPTION:Discover a historic photographic printing technique that you can do in your own backyard! This workshop will provide you with a brief introduction to the cyanotype process\, which was discovered by John Herschel in 1842 and used for over a century to reproduce drawings and images (it was especially popular among engineers\, thus the term “blueprint”!) The gorgeous deep blue hues of cyanotypes will transform your images. You will learn how to prepare your photosensitive material and make prints outside in the sunlight\, using found objects and transparencies as your negatives. The workshop will also explore techniques for printing on fabric\, as well as toning your images to alter their final color. \nWhat you will learn:\n1. Brief history of cyanotype\n2. How to prepare paper with solution\n3. How to expose photograms and negatives in sunlight\n4. Demonstrations of printing on fabric and amber toning \nNote that this classroom is accessible by stairs only; please contact Fleisher for more information.

SUMMARY:Curatorial Tour "Crescendo: How Art Makes Movements (1981–1999)" with Joyce Chung
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a special tour of Crescendo: How Art Makes Movements (1981–1999) with curator Joyce Chung. \nCrescendo: How Art Makes Movements (1981–1999) is a historical survey of multidisciplinary art projects that intersected with Asian American social movements between 1981 and 1999. Largely inspired by jazz and improvised music\, art forms central to the Black Arts Movement\, the artists featured in this exhibition intended to redefine the presence of Asian Americans and broaden their artistic horizons beyond the politics of representation. Crescendo\, the exhibition’s title\, is a metaphor to capture the growing sociopolitical activism during this time\, which coincided with an artistic and cultural renaissance within the Asian American community\, as reflected in major achievements in music\, poetry\, dance\, theater\, and opera through collaborative explorations. \nJoyce Chung is the Curator at Asian Arts Initiative in Philadelphia\, where she oversees the exhibition and performance program. Her curatorial projects focus on the complexity of identity and representation through the lens of the politics of place. Chung is also interested in artistic exploration of struggles and hardships that are often overlooked\, such as those of ethnic and gender minorities\, women\, and immigrants. She previously worked at a number of museums and galleries both in Korea and the USA\, including the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art\, Korea\, Hyundai Card\, Kukje Gallery\, as well as for the Gwangju Biennale and Performa\, New York. Chung holds an MA in the Humanities with a concentration in Art History from the University of Chicago and a BA in Art History from Wesleyan University. \nThis tour will meet at Asian Arts Initiative located at 1219 Vine Street Philadelphia\, PA 19107. \nThis tour does not include transportation. Asian Arts Initiative does not have dedicated parking. Street parking is available. \nAsian Arts Initiative is designed as a mobility accessible facility\, with access to all public floors and spaces\, and seating accommodations for programmed events. Both non-gendered and individually isolating restrooms are available on each floor\, all equipped with changing stations. If contacted in advance\, we will make every attempt to fulfill requests for reasonable accommodations such as access to assistive technology devices and materials in alternative formats.
