SUMMARY:jumpstART: Sculpting Hands
DESCRIPTION:This workshop will focus on creating life-like human hands in clay. Students will gain an understanding of proportions\, anatomy\, and modeling techniques based on observation/research. The workshop will offer demonstrations to illustrate sculpture methodology\, as well as individual critiques to assist students in meeting their personal goals. \nFiring Schedule: Sculpture students are welcome to fire finished work in our Ceramics Studio. Finished work may not be on an armature and must be bone dry before firing. Therefore\, sculpture students are encouraged to bring finished work home at the end of the term and bring it back to campus the following term for firing. Additional questions about firing sculpture works can be directed to Scott Cooper\, Studio Technician at scooper@fleisher.org.

SUMMARY:Rituals for Reclamation: An artist talk and reflection on the dinner ritual
DESCRIPTION:Join Leeway x Fleisher Visual Artist-in-Residence Candy Alexandra González @candy_alexandra1 on Sunday\, January 25th from 1-2:30pm for the culminating event in the “Rituals for Reclamation” series\, which was a multidisciplinary artistic exploration of maize and queerness. \n​This artist talk is the final ritual of Rituals for Reclamation\, a three part project supported by the Leeway x Fleisher Visual Artist-In-Residence program that sought to hold space for sapphic queers of color to engage in the reclamation of the term “tortillera”\, which has historically been a derogatory term used to denote lesbianism. This artist talk will serve as a reflection on the first two rituals of the project and an invitation to the broader community to learn about this body of work. \nRegister here.

SUMMARY:Black & White Comedy in a Color World: The Plot Against Harry
DESCRIPTION:Although color film technology was available since the early 1930s\, black & white and color films both co-existed in theaters until color would dominate filmmaking by the early 1970s. Yet monochrome film would still occasionally be used for feature films\, resulting in some of the most-esteemed titles of the last fifty years (RAGING BULL\, SCHINDLER’S LIST & ERASERHEAD among them). \nWhile in modern times black & white is often deployed to suggest past periods or austere seriousness\, some of the color era’s most-striking comedies have also been shot in the process. We’ll discuss what black & white brings to the comic tone of these films as well as examine the careers and artistic interests of the directors and their collaborators. Following the films we’ll enjoy an open class discussion. \nThis week\, we’ll be screening THE PLOT AGAINST HARRY (1971\, dir. Michael Roemer\, 81 min.\, U.S.). \nOther films to be screened:\nPAPER MOON (1973\, dir. Peter Bogdanovich\, 102 min.\, U.S.) on February 2 | REGISTER\nSIDEWALK STORIES (1989\, dir. Charles Lane\, 97 min.\, U.S.) on February 9 | REGISTER\nLA VIE DE BOHÈME (1992\, dir. Aki Kaurismäki\, 103 min.\, Finland) on February 23 | REGISTER\nCOMPUTER CHESS (2013\, dir. Andrew Bujalski\, 92 min.\, U.S.) on March 2 | REGISTER\nFRANCES HA (2012\, dir. Greta Gerwig\, 86 min.\, U.S.) on March 9 | REGISTER
