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

Whether you’re drawn to textures\, color play\, or just want to slow down and make something beautiful with your hands\, this workshop is a perfect place to start. You’ll be introduced to floor looms\, tabletop looms\, and frame looms\, learn key techniques like warping\, plain weave\, and adding texture\, and get plenty of time to experiment with yarn\, pattern\, and rhythm. We’ll rotate through different stations so everyone gets guided time on the looms\, and you’ll also create your own off-loom mini weaving to take home.

SUMMARY:Black & White Comedy in a Color World: Paper Moon
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 PAPER MOON (1973\, dir. Peter Bogdanovich\, 102 min.\, U.S.). \nOther films to be screened:\nTHE PLOT AGAINST HARRY (1971\, dir. Michael Roemer\, 81 min.\, U.S.). on January 26 | 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 \n

SUMMARY:jumpstART: One of a Kind Screenprint
DESCRIPTION:Explore and experiment with the immediacy of this one of a kind screenprinting technique. Printed images will be made using Caran D’Ache water-soluble crayons and soft graphite to create layers of drawings and textures. Explore the many different effects possible achieved with simple\, freeing and direct techniques. You do not need to have a plan for an image\, as it is possible to experiment with the materials and our extensive collection of textures that we use for rubbings directly on the screen.
