SUMMARY:Urban Mosaics: Kr3wcial and Charm Taylor Live at the Museum
DESCRIPTION:Creative Assembly Cohort artists Kr3wcial and Charm Taylor present “Urban Mosaics\,” an unforgettable night of hip-hop at the museum that reflects the cultural vibrancy of New Orleans’s neighborhoods. \nFor this special performance in NOMA’s Lapis Center for the Arts\, the two artists bring together musicians from across the city for a one-night-only presentation.  \nFree with museum admission. Louisiana residents receive free admission on Wednesdays courtesy of The Helis Foundation.  \n\nCharm Taylor and the Light (Lauren Fuller\, Wino Willy\, Saint Amethyst)\nFrom the artist: Charm Taylor is a multidisciplinary artist\, curator\, and change-maker. As an independent vocalist and songwriter\, Taylor first gained recognition as the lead singer of the electric soul-rock band the Honorable South. She has collaborated with Galactic\, Spirit McIntyre\, Georgia Anne Muldrow\, Mononeon\, and more. Her music defies genres and her dynamic performances are infused with themes of ancestral memory\, wellness\, and deep feminine strength—also evident in her bold visual creations meditating on pathways to liberation. In 2015\, she released a critically acclaimed first solo EP\, The Road Within\, followed by several albums with local indie imprint Sinking City Records\, including her album She Is the Future\, and her most recent collection Evolution. Taylor has served in the community as an activist and educator\, and she is a graduate of Occidental College in Los Angeles. \nKr3wcial and More Love (TJ Nathan\, Jemila Dunham\, Yahel Yizracyah Yisrael)\nFrom the artist: In the vibrant tapestry of New Orleans’ rich musical heritage\, Kr3wcial emerges as a dynamic figure\, transcending the boundaries of traditional hip-hop. Born and raised in the heart of the Crescent City\, Kr3wcial’s music is a sonic journey through the soul of New Orleans itself. With lyrics that delve deep into the city’s intricate layers—from the gritty streets to the transcendent spirit of its people—he weaves a narrative that is both raw and poetic\, reminiscent of the city’s jazz and blues roots. Kr3wcial’s tracks\, often enlivened with the pulse of brass and the rhythm of New Orleans\, serve as a compelling commentary on the city’s multifaceted nature. Through his verses\, he explores themes of resilience\, identity\, and social consciousness. Beyond the studio\, Kr3wcial is a community.

SUMMARY:MARI Presents “Beyond the Beautiful Map: Toward Large-Scale Modeling and Community-Engaged Settlement Pattern Research”
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the centennial of the Middle American Research Institute (MARI)\, director Dr. Marcello A. Canuto gives a lecture in NOMA’s Lapis Center for the Arts: “Beyond the Beautiful Map: Toward Large-Scale Modeling and Community-engaged Settlement Pattern Research.”   \nPlease register in advance to guarantee a seat. Free and open to the public.  \nRegister Now \n\nAbout the Lecture\nDespite the long-standing interest in Maya settlement patterns in archaeology\, the tropical forest has imposed practical and methodological constraints that have led academics toward local-scale analysis. Ambitious efforts to scale up local models using remote sensing have been continually thwarted by the regionalism and heterogeneity of the Maya Forest.  \nThe use of airborne laser scanning (lidar) as a direct-discovery technique\, capable of mapping enormous areas in minute detail\, has given the discipline’s macro-scale objectives new life. Lidar provides new approaches to reconstruct Maya settlement patterns at previously unreachable scales by simultaneously recording topography\, archaeological settlement\, anthropogenic landscape modification\, and vegetation. \nHere\, we use lidar-derived settlement and topographic data to develop a settlement suitability model that identifies constraints on settlement patterning and historical contingencies in the growth of individual cities. We also demonstrate how this approach might give significant information for local modern communities to better manage and steward the natural and cultural resources of locations where the Maya Forest still exists. \n\n\nAbout Marcello A. Canuto\nMarcello A. Canuto is currently the Director of the Middle American Research Institute and Professor of Anthropology at Tulane University. He received his BA from Harvard University in 1991 and his PhD from the University of Pennsylvania in 2002. Before coming to Tulane in 2009\, he was an Assistant Professor at Yale University. \nHe has undertaken archaeological excavations in the Maya region\, South America\, India\, North Africa\, and the northeast US. His primary research interest in the Maya area has been on the integrative mechanisms that the ancient Maya used to build and maintain a socio-politically complex society throughout both the Preclassic and Classic periods. More broadly\, his interests include household and community dynamics\, the development of socio-political complexity in ancient societies\, the definition of identity through material culture\, and the modern social contexts of archaeology in Mesoamerica. His past research in Honduras investigated the nature of ethnic diversity at Copan.  \nHe now co-directs a project in the understudied Northwest Peten\, Guatemala where he investigates the construction of social categories and the mechanisms by which complex socio-political organizations develop and were maintained. \nAbout the Middle American Research Institute\nFounded in 1924\, the Middle American Research Institute (MARI) at Tulane University strives to promote greater understanding of the vibrant and diverse cultures of Middle America. It stewards an extensive collection of textiles\, artifacts\, and an archive of letters\, field notes\, maps\, and photographs from the scores of field projects it has sponsored and continues to sponsor. We strive to make these accessible to researchers and the general public through a variety of exhibitions\, workshops\, and symposia. \nFurthermore\, MARI continues to support anthropological\, archaeological\, ethnohistorical\, linguistic\, and ethnographic research projects throughout Mexico and Central America. \nLearn More

SUMMARY:Book Club Discussion | Identity Unknown: Rediscovering Seven American Women Artists
DESCRIPTION:The NOMA Book Club meets monthly to discuss fiction and non-fiction books related to art in NOMA’s collection and exhibitions. It is an informal group open to anyone on a month-to-month basis. In addition to monthly book discussions\, the book club meets periodically for curatorial programs related to the book selections. You do not have to attend every meeting or read every book to join. \nBook selections are inspired by the museum’s exhibition schedule. Participants are expected to procure their own copies. Selections are also available at the NOMA Museum Shop\, where museum members receive a 10% discount. \nMeetings are held in person or via Zoom. All meetings begin at 12 pm. \nFor information or questions about the NOMA Book Club\, please email kmccurdy@noma.org. \nRegister Now \n\nMarch 2024\nBook Club Discussion | Thursday\, March 21\, 12 pm\n\n\n\n\n\nIdentity Unknown: Rediscovering Seven American Women Artists by Donna Seaman \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho hasn’t wondered where-aside from Georgia O’Keeffe and Frida Kahlo-all the women artists are? In many art books\, they’ve been marginalized with cold efficiency\, summarily dismissed in the captions of group photographs with the phrase “identity unknown” while each male is named. \nDonna Seaman brings to dazzling life seven of these forgotten artists\, among the best of their day: Gertrude Abercrombie\, with her dark\, surreal paintings and friendships with Dizzy Gillespie and Sonny Rollins; Bay Area self-portraitist Joan Brown; Ree Morton\, with her witty\, oddly beautiful constructions; Loïs Mailou Jones of the Harlem Renaissance; Lenore Tawney\, who combined weaving and sculpture when art and craft were considered mutually exclusive; Christina Ramberg\, whose unsettling works drew on pop culture and advertising; and Louise Nevelson\, an art-world superstar in her heyday but omitted from recent surveys of her era. \nThese women fought to be treated the same as male artists\, to be judged by their work\, not their gender or appearance. In brilliant\, compassionate prose\, Seaman reveals what drove them\, how they worked\, and how they were perceived by others in a world where women were subjects-not makers-of art. Featuring stunning examples of the artists’ work\, Identity Unknown speaks to all women about their neglected place in history and the challenges they face to be taken as seriously as men no matter what their chosen field-and to all men interested in women’s lives. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n                                                \nEducation and outreach initiatives at NOMA are supported in part by the Zemurray Foundation; the Lois and Lloyd Hawkins Jr. Foundation; The Helis Foundation; The Gayle and Tom Benson Foundation; The City of New Orleans; IBERIABANK; The Wagner Foundation; Janice Parmelee and Bill Hammack; the Diversifying Art Museum Leadership Initiative\, funded by the Walton Family Foundation and the Ford Foundation; Sara and David Kelso; Patrick F.

SUMMARY:NOMA at Night feat. Special Musical Guests and DJ HEELTURN
DESCRIPTION:Join us at NOMA for an evening of creativity inspired by the special exhibition Wangechi Mutu: Intertwined. The night will spotlight a showcase of music organized by Sari Jordan & Mahmoud Chouki\, featuring both local and visiting musicians in a women- and queer-dominated band. Songs during the set are inspired by the exhibition and meditate on themes of transmutation\, healing\, and the feminine figures who anchor Mutu’s vast practice. \nIn addition to the museum\, the Besthoff Sculpture Garden pavilion will be open for guests to view works from Wangechi Mutu: Intertwined installed there. \n$30 General Admission | $15 for Members \nPURCHASE TICKETS \nPlease note that food and drinks are not included in the ticket price. They are available for purchase directly from our partner vendors. \n\nNOMA AT NIGHT LINE-UP\n\nDJ Set by HEELTURN\nIn the Great Hall\nWith a strong urge to help build community and a wide taste in music\, New Orleans native HEELTURN started out honing his DJ skills on WTUL with a show he likes to call “Accepted Eclectic.” From there he has bounced all over the city bringing a unique mix of soul\, disco\, hip-hop\, R&B\, bounce\, baile funk\, house\, and club music to a wide variety of audiences. He has opened Washed Out\, guest DJ-ed Set De Flo at the Hi-Ho Lounge (spotlighted by Boiler Room and Resident Advisor)\, performed with Katey Red\, and played music festivals including BUKU and Bonnaroo. His love of the local music scene has led him to contribute writing to Antigravity and to co-book for the POC-focused punk music festival Deep Cuts.  \nArt-Making Activity: Assemblage\n6:00–9:30 pm in the museum’s first-floor galleries\n  \n \nFeatured Exhibition | Wangechi Mutu: Intertwined\nThis major solo exhibition of work by Wangechi Mutu brings together nearly one hundred sculptures\, paintings\, collages\, drawings\, and films to present the breadth of the Kenyan–American artist’s multidisciplinary practice from the mid-1990s to today. \n\nAdditional Credits\nMahmoud Chouki\nNOMA is pleased to work with internationally renowned multi-instrumentalist and composer Mahmoud Chouki\, who is organizing musical performances for each NOMA at Night program in collaboration with museum staff. \nMahmoud Chouki is a master guitarist\, multi-instrumentalist\, and composer living and working in New Orleans. His art draws together music from many different international contexts to consider how music can speak across cultural divides. His own compositions incorporate musical influences from across the globe\, ranging from European classical\, Andalusian from Southern Spain\, Levantine music from the Middle East\, Maghrebian music from North Africa\, Latin American music\, and jazz from the Southern United States. Integrating sounds and rhythms from many different cultures\, Chouki combines classical guitar with instruments such as the loutar\, a traditional instrument of the Middle Atlas region of Morocco; the sintir\, a Sub-Saharan instrument from the Sahel region (Mali); the oud\, an oriental lute; the Algerian mandole\, a steel-string fretted instrument resembling an elongated mandolin; the Bağlama saz\, a Turkish long necked bowl-lute; the banjo\, and a variety of percussion instruments. As artistic director of Rencontre Orient-Occident at Chateau Mercier in Sierre\, Switzerland\, Chouki has brought together a wide range of international musicians to envision new forms of dialogue between East and West\, with music often the only common language between performers. \nThank You to Our Supporters\nNOMA at Night is supported in part by grant funds from the Azby Fund; Ruby K. Worner Charitable Trust through the PNC Charitable Trusts Grant Review Committee; New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation; and the Louisiana Division of the Arts\, Office of Cultural Development\, Department of Culture\, Recreation\, and Tourism\, in cooperation with the Louisiana State Arts Council. Funding has also been provided by the National Endowment for the Arts. \n

The sailing vessel that brought John Winthrop to the shores of the New World in 1630 carried more beer than water. By the 1820s\, liquor flowed so plentifully it was cheaper than tea. That Americans would ever agree to relinquish their booze was as improbable as it was astonishing. \nYet we did\, and Last Call is Daniel Okrent’s dazzling explanation of why we did it\, what life under Prohibition was like\, and how such an unprecedented degree of government interference in the private lives of Americans changed the country forever. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n                                                \nEducation and outreach initiatives at NOMA are supported in part by the Zemurray Foundation; the Lois and Lloyd Hawkins Jr. Foundation; The Helis Foundation; The Gayle and Tom Benson Foundation; The City of New Orleans; IBERIABANK; The Wagner Foundation; Janice Parmelee and Bill Hammack; the Diversifying Art Museum Leadership Initiative\, funded by the Walton Family Foundation and the Ford Foundation; Sara and David Kelso; Patrick F.
