The Photography Program Presents: Genesis Báez
Thursday, April 4, 2024
6–7:30 pm
Weis CinemaGenesis Báez is an artist based in Brooklyn, NY. Born in Massachusetts, Báez grew up in both the Northeast US and Puerto Rico. Working primarily with photography, her works emerge from the temporal and fragmented experiences of living between worlds. Báez’s practice reflects on how people relate to place and each other, and where personal and collective histories merge.
Báez has exhibited her work internationally including the Whitney Museum of American Art, Huxley Parlour in London, ARCO Madrid, Yancey Richardson in New York, Ballroom Marfa, the Detroit Institute of Art, amongst others. Recent awards include a 2022 NYFA/NYSCA Fellowship in Photography, the 2022 Capricious Photo Award, and a 2023 Lighthouse Works Fellowship. Her work has recently appeared in publications such as Aperture, the British Journal of Photography, and BOMB Magazine.
Báez’s works are held in the permanent collections of the Whitney Museum of American Art, the Museum of Modern Art, NY, Detroit Institute of Art, and Yale University Art Gallery. She holds an MFA in photography from the Yale School of Art, a BFA with honors from Massachusetts College of Art & Design, and is an alumna of the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture. Báez currently teaches at Williams College.Sponsored by: Photography Program.

Open Studios by First-Year Students in the MA in Human Rights and the Arts
Material Storytelling
Friday, April 5, 2024
11 am – 1:30 pm
Bard Massena Campus, BarrytownFirst-year MA students at the Center for Human Rights and the Arts present works in progress developed in their core requirement in artmaking, taught by artist Robin Frohardt, with assistance from artist and CHRA alum Oscar Gardea. These works engage with the expressive potential of everyday objects, transforming found materials such as waste into artworks. Using puppetry, masks, shadows, and cardboard, the students demonstrate how simplicity and precarity in materials can offer powerful tools and forms of storytelling.
Transportation: Parking is available on the Massena campus for the duration of this event. For those without access to a car, the CHRA-Massena Shuttle will offer transportation to Bard students, staff, and faculty between Kline Bus Stop (Southbound) and the Massena Campus Roundabout, departing the Annandale campus at 9:40 am and 10:00 am and departing Massena campus at 1:30 pm and 1:50 pm. Any and all persons riding Bard Shuttles must be a Bard student, faculty, or staff member with a valid and legible Bard ID.Sponsored by: Center for Human Rights and the Arts.

Urinetown
Book and Lyrics by Greg Kotis
Music and Lyrics by Mark Hollmann
Directed by Liz Peterson
Music Direction by David Sytkowski
Friday, April 12, 2024 – Sunday, April 14, 2024
Fisher Center, LUMA TheaterSet in a Gotham-like city in the not-so-distant future, Urinetown is a scathing satire with a tragic love story at its heart. In it, we see how a community is torn apart by an oppressive for-profit system, how figures of liberation rise up, and the impossible choices they are left with. Featuring music inspired by so many other musicals, this is a show that both celebrates and satirizes the tradition of musical theater.

Capoeira Angola with Professor Tagan
Sunday, April 14, 2024
12–3 pm
Campus Center, Multipurpose Room"Capoeira Angola is an Afro-Brazilian martial art and dance with a liberatory purpose and strong musical tradition at its core. In this introductory class to Capoeira Angola, we will go over the fundamentals of movement and music that define the art form. Alongside physical training, we will sing songs and play the musical instruments of Capoeira. In addition to being a dance and martial art, Capoeira Angola is also, and maybe most importantly, a ‘game.’ Come ready to play, in loose-fitting clothes that you feel comfortable moving in, and ready to enjoy yourself."
Taganyahu Swaby is a professor of Capoeira Angola and an eastern medicine practitioner. Tagan has practiced the art form for more than two decades. Originally from Jamaica, Tagan first began training Capoeira Angola in Bahia, Brazil, in 2000. He has trained extensively with masters including Mestre João Grande. Mestre Boca Do Rio, and Mestre Alberto “Chorão” Nunes. He received the title of professor from his master, Mestre Chorão, in 2018. Tagan founded the group Acupe Do Brooklyn (formerly Angoleiros Do Brooklyn) in 2010 and has created, directed, and participated in presentations for Brooklyn Museum, Bam Dance Africa, Odunde Festival in Philadelphia, and the Brooklyn African Street Festival. Originally trained as a visual artist, Tagan also explores and celebrates Capoeira Angola in his award-winning Portuguese-Language films Se Safando and Flavio, and Through Printmaking.Sponsored by: Dance Program.

Thursday, April 25, 2024
5:30–7:30 pm
Avery Art Center; Ottaway Theater in the Ottaway Film CenterSynopsis
Filmmaker Jon-Sesrie Goff returns to the coastal South Carolina land that his family purchased after emancipation. His desire to explore his Gullah Geechee roots evolves into a poetic documentary weaving stories about generational wisdom, inheritance, faith, survival, and the tensions that define our collective American history, especially Black history. www.aftersherman.com
Bio
Jon-Sesrie Goff is a multidisciplinary artist, curator, and arts administrator. His creative practice explores the intersection of race, power, identity, gender, and the environment by unearthing the visceral representational value and authenticity behind the images propelled across varying diasporas. His body of work includes extensive institutional, community, and family archival research, visual documentation, and oral history. Jon engages with his work from the paradigm of a social change instigator. He studied sociology, economics, and theater at Morehouse College, completed his BA at The New School, along with an MFA from Duke University in experimental and documentary arts.Sponsored by: Film and Electronic Arts Program.
