SUMMARY:Book Club Curatorial Program with Curator Lisa Rotondo-McCord
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\, and 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 more information on the NOMA Book Club\, please contact NOMA’s Curator of Education\, Tracy Kennan\, at tkennan@noma.org or 504.658.4113. \nRegister Now \n\nMay 2023\nCuratorial Program | Tuesday\, May 30\, 12 pm\n\n\n\n\n\nMinistry of the Utmost Happiness by Arundhati Roy\nVintage\, 2018\, ISBN: 052543481X \nThe Ministry of Utmost Happiness takes us on an intimate journey across the Indian subcontinent—from the cramped neighborhoods of Old Delhi and the roads of the new city to the mountains and valleys of Kashmir and beyond\, where war is peace and peace is war. Braiding together the lives of a diverse cast of characters who have been broken by the world they live in and then rescued\, patched together by acts of love—and by hope\, here Arundhati Roy reinvents what a novel can do and can be. \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:Artist Talk and Book Signing with Binh Danh
DESCRIPTION:NOMA presents an artist talk with photographer Binh Danh in the Lapis Center for the Arts during the museum’s new Wednesday evening hours. \nEarly in his career\, Danh pioneered a technique of printing images directly onto tropical plants and grasses by activating the plants’ chlorophyll with sunlight and chemistry. Danh will speak about his early work\, as well as his use of antiquated photography processes\, like the daguerreotype\, to make striking contemporary art. Danh’s work is included in NOMA’s permanent collection\, and an example of chlorophyll printing is currently on view in the exhibition Photogenic: Photographs from the Collection of Cherye R. and James F. Pierce. Following the talk\, attendees are invited to join Danh in the NOMA Museum Shop for a book signing of the artist’s first monograph\, Binh Danh: The Enigma of Belonging (Radius Books\, 2022). \nThe museum will be open until 8 pm for program attendees to explore. \nFree with museum admission. Every Wednesday\, Louisiana residents receive free admission to NOMA courtesy of The Helis Foundation. \n\nAbout Binh Danh\nBinh Danh was born in Vietnam and immigrated to the US in 1979. Early in his career\, Danh pioneered a technique of printing images directly onto plant matter\, activating the plants’ chlorophyll with sunlight. Using this process\, Danh printed images associated with the war in Vietnam onto the leaves of tropical plants and grasses. Of this work\, Danh explains\, “This process deals with the idea of elemental transmigration: the decomposition and composition of matter into other forms. The images of war are part of the leaves\, and live inside and outside of them.” Known for his innovative approach to alternative photographic processes\, Binh Danh extends and reconsiders the pursuit of pioneering nineteenth-century photographers. For almost a decade\, Danh has traveled across the American West\, making daguerreotypes of scenic vistas on silver plates in a mobile darkroom he calls Louis\, after Louis Daguerre. Danh imbues this scenery with his distinctly personal perspective—namely\, an attempt to negotiate his connection as a Vietnamese American with the landscape and history of the United States. The highly reflective surfaces of Danh’s daguerreotypes literally mirror their surroundings\, embracing viewers within the idyllic environs of national sites and landmarks. This inaugural monograph features two volumes in a slipcase\, bringing together all three bodies of work and a separate book of essays and memorabilia that serves to contextualize Danh’s work.

SUMMARY:Celebrating Juneteenth at NOMA
DESCRIPTION:On June 19\, 1865\, nearly two years after President Abraham Lincoln emancipated enslaved Africans in America\, Union troops arrived in Galveston Bay\, Texas\, with news of freedom for over 250\,000 African Americans. With the principles of self-determination\, citizenship\, and democracy magnifying their hopes and dreams\, those Texans held fast to the promise of true liberty for all. \nOne year later\, in 1866\, Black people in Texas reclaimed June 19 as Juneteenth in recognition of Black liberation nationwide\, continuing the celebration and lobbying for the federal holiday status granted in 2021. \nJuneteenth is a time to gather with family and community\, honor the present\, and reflect on shared history and tradition. Recognizing the legacy of liberation that Juneteenth represents\, NOMA invites you to reflect on the theme of “movement” as you engage with artworks in the galleries and Besthoff Sculpture Garden. \nIn celebration of Juneteenth\, NOMA is free to the public on Sunday\, June 18. \n\nActivities\n\nFreedom at the Mat\n10:30 am | Besthoff Sculpture Garden\, Sculpture Pavilion\nCelebrate Juneteenth at the New Orleans Museum of Art Sculpture Garden by expressing your freedom in community with others in a 60-minute joy of freedom movement & mindfulness experience presented by Freedom At The Mat. \nSIGN UP NOW \nMusic in the Garden\n2 pm | Besthoff Sculpture Garden\, Pine Grove\nDue to excessive heat\, Music in the Garden will move inside NOMA’s Great Hall. \nEncounter the sounds of local New Orleans musicians while strolling through the Sydney and Walda Besthoff Sculpture Garden on select Sunday afternoons beginning at 2 pm. \nJoin us on Sunday\, June 18\, for a performance featuring Amine Boucetta.

SUMMARY:The UpStairs Lounge
DESCRIPTION:Mélange Dance Company presents The UpStairs Lounge in NOMA’s Lapis Center for the Arts on June 23\, 24\, and 25. \nThis presentation commemorates the 50th anniversary of the deadliest fire in New Orleans history\, when an arsonist set fire to the UpStairs Lounge\, a popular French Quarter bar and safe haven for the LGBTQ+ community. \nThrough dance\, film\, spoken word\, and elements of live music\, dynamic stories of love and loss in The UpStairs Lounge bring to life the quirky three-room bar with red flocked wallpaper that held church services\, presented charitable theatrical productions\, and united community in song. \nThe UpStairs Lounge is a celebration of life and a cautionary tale of internalized homophobia and hate. Mélange Dance Company revisits its inaugural production to illuminate the lives of its patrons\, honor its continuing spirit and relevancy\, and reflect on the legacy that we must carry on in today’s world. \nGET TICKETS \nOnline ticket sales end one hour prior to performances. If you wish to purchase tickets less than one hour prior to a show\, you will need to do so in person. \n$10 rush tickets are available at all non-sold-out performances.
