Rappazzo moved to Los Angeles in 1992\, working with such notable film directors as Rob Reiner\, Wolfgang Petersen\, Jonathan Lynn and Ken Kwapis. She performed in the Los. Angeles jazz scene with the Jon Mayer trio and recorded “Black and White”\, a straight ahead standards record with them. After appearing in many of the local clubs she recorded her second album with Paul Smith\, Jim DeJulio and Joe LaBarbera. This project\, “Regarding Frank\,” was a tribute record to Sinatra and his Capitol years of the 1950s. \nABOUT DARRYL REEVES AND JONN HANKINS\nDarryl Reeves is a third generation metalworker and owner of Andrew’s Welding and Blacksmith Shop in New Orleans’ Seventh Ward. He is a master trainer for the New Orleans Master Crafts Guild\, training apprentices in advanced ironwork\, including welding and blacksmithing. Reeves\, who apprenticed under noted master blacksmith and furrier William “Buddy” Leonard\, is well known for his creative contemporary steel and brass staircase railings and furniture\, and is revered for his restorations of antique ironwork at historic sites. His public commissions include the restoration of the ornate fence at the Presbytère in Jackson Square\, fabrication of a new identical fence for its sister building\, the Cabildo\, and the disassembly and reconstruction of the massive gate at the Chalmette National Cemetery\, which dates to 1872. \nJonn Ethan Hankins is the founding director of the New Orleans Master Crafts Guild. He previously served as Executive Director of the New Orleans African American Museum\, Development Director of the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival Foundation\, and Principal Development Officer for Corporate and Community Affairs at the New Orleans Museum of Art. At NOMA\, he directed\, “Raised to the Trade: Creole Building Arts of New Orleans\,” an award-winning exhibition and oral history research project that documented two centuries of families of master craftsmen who built and still maintain New Orleans’ unique architecture. \nABOUT ALWAYS FOR PLEASURE\nAlways for Pleasure is a 1978 documentary film by Les Blank about social traditions in New Orleans. The film has footage of musical events\, Mardi Gras Indians\, a jazz funeral\, various second line parades\, cooking and eating red beans and rice and a crawfish boil. Mardi Gras and St. Patrick’s Day 1977 are captured\, and local musicians perform and are interviewed\, including Kid Thomas Valentine\, Allen Toussaint\, Danny Barker\, Blue Lu Barker\, Irma Thomas\, the Neville Brothers and Professor Longhair.

His first novel to appear in English\, Signs Preceding the End of the World\, was published to great critical acclaim in 2015 and included in many Best-of-Year lists\, including The Guardian‘s Best Fiction and NBC News’s Ten Great Latino Books\, going on to win the 2016 Best Translated Book Award. He is currently teaching at Tulane University. \nRosana Cruz is a writer\, parent\, social justice movement leader and intersectional feminist.

They currently serve as the Vice President of Movement and Capacity Building at Race Forward: The Center for Racial Justice Innovation. Born in the US to Cuban parents\, Cruz identifies as a pre-natal exile\, remaining close to the grandparents\, aunts\, uncles and cousins who stayed behind in Cuba. They were raised by a single mother in a multi-racial community in North Miami in the 1970s and 80s. Cruz draws deeply from this experience\, as well as their close ties to the Caribbean\, in their writing. They hold an MA in Latin American Studies from the Stone Center at Tulane University. Essays by Cruz have been published in hipMama\, Bridge the Gulf Project\, Colorlines.com and the anthology Mamaphonic. Cruz is a 2018 VONA Voices Fellow.

SUMMARY:NOMA Book Club Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Join NOMA staff and fellow book lovers as we read and discuss fiction and nonfiction books related to art\, artists\, art museums\, NOMA’s collections and exhibitions. Our full 2018 schedule and reading list has been announced. \nOrganized by NOMA’s Felix J. Dreyfous Library\, the Book Club is an informal group. You do not have to attend every meeting and we understand if you have to leave a discussion or program early. The book club offers several types of programs: a book discussion group that meets once a month (no reading in December)\, curatorial programs\, field trips\, and Meet the Author receptions. Most book club programs start promptly at noon\, but please arrive at 11:30 a.m. if you wish to bring a sack lunch or meet beforehand. NOMA will provide water and soft drinks. \nRSVP for the meetings you wish to attend so we can prepare the meeting space. \nPlease contact Sheila A. Cork at 504.658.4117 or scork@noma.org for information about joining the NOMA Book Club.\n \nMay 2018 Selection\nShocking Paris: Soutine\, Chagall and the Outsiders of Montparnasse by Stanley Meisler \nSt. Martin’s Press\, 2015. ISBN: 978-1137278807 \nFor a couple of decades before World War II\, a group of immigrant painters and sculptors\, including Amedeo Modigliani\, Marc Chagall\, Chaim Soutine\, and Jules Pascin dominated the new art scene of Montparnasse in Paris. Art critics gave them the name “the School of Paris” to set them apart from the French-born (and less talented) young artists of the period. Soutine arrived in Paris while many painters were experimenting with cubism\, but he had no time for trends and fashions; like his art\, Soutine was intense\, demonic\, and fierce. After the defeat of France by Hitler’s Germany\, the Eastern European Jewish immigrants who had made their way to France for sanctuary were no longer safe. In constant fear of the French police and the German Gestapo\, plagued by poor health and bouts of depression\, Soutine was the epitome of the tortured artist. Rich in period detail\, Stanley Meisler’s Shocking Paris explores the short\, dramatic life of one of the most influential artists of the twentieth century.

SUMMARY:Small Talk: Fashion designer Serena Gili on A Queen Within: Adorned Archetypes
DESCRIPTION:Small Talks are ten to fifteen minute gallery talks focused on one object or a small group of objects. These brief informal sessions enrich the visitor experience and allow visitors to learn more about artworks in our permanent holdings as well as those on view in temporary exhibitions. \n\nJoin fashion designer Serena Gili in the exhibition A Queen Within: Adorned Archetypes\, where one of her ensembles is on display. Gili graduated from Central Saint Martins BA and MA fashion course\, with a focus on knitwear design. Her BA collection earned her the second runner-up L’Oréal Professional Design Talent Award and a mentorship at the Sarabande foundation (Lee Alexander McQueen CBE). Gili’s design work is creative and precise\, with great attention to fine details combined with a strong interest towards innovative and unconventional materials. Inspired by religion\, uniformity\, devotion and control\, Gili creates pieces close to sacred art and religious objects. Her current collection is a sensory feast that you hear before seeing\, with a rat-a-tat-tat of thousands of glass beads against molded acrylic. She currently works as a freelance designer in London.
