SUMMARY:Panel Discussion | Raven Chacon\, Laura Ortman and Suzanne Kite | September 29\, 6pm
DESCRIPTION:Panel Discussion and Performance | Raven Chacon\, Laura Ortman and Suzanne Kite\nPlug In Institute of Contemporary Art | 1\, 460 Portage Ave | Winnipeg MB | Canada\n\nAs part of Plug In ICA’s Respondent Series for the exhibition\, Days of Reading: beyond this state of affairs\, we present a conversation between\, artist and composer Raven Chacon\, and experimental musician’s Laura Ortman and Suzanne Kite. \nRaven Chacon’s participation in Days of Reading: beyond this state of affairs begins with a new book project and sound piece that will comprise twelve musical scores dedicated to twelve contemporary Indigenous women “working in the field of contemporary music performance or composition\,“ alongside essays and performance notes. \nThis work in progress is in dedication to the life of Zitkála-Šá\, an early 20th century Yankton Dakota woman who was a prolific writer\, musician\, and activist. Zitkála-Šá’s life is interpreted through music\, and\, in dialogue with collaborators Suzanne Kite and Laura Ortman\, in an abstract form that subordinates language and clarity\, never prescribing itself as one view that is presented as an authentic biography. \nThe public discuss will focus of Chacon’s research and the collaborative participation of Suzanne Kite and Laura Ortman. Kite and Ortman will perform on Plug In ICA’s rooftop shortly following the conversation and as part of Days of Reading’s opening reception. \n\nRelated exhibit:\nDays of Reading: beyond this state of affairs

SUMMARY:Days of Reading: beyond this state of affairs | Opening Reception | September 29\, 7pm

Jeanne Randolph\, and Sameer Farooq and Jared Stanley activate collections through ficto-criticism (Randolph) and speculative museums (Farooq and Stanley)\, and Leah Decter\, like Carranza\, excavates language from the archive of her maternal grandfather’s ship’s manifest coming in to Canada in her woven work\, (through)line(age) 1779-1925-2013\, 2013. As part of the exhibition Raven Chacon begins a new book project in dedication to the life of Zitkála-Šá\, an early 20th century Yankton Dakota woman that will be comprised of twelve musical scores dedicated to twelve contemporary Indigenous women “working in the field of contemporary music performance or composition.” \nThe exhibition is to be read as one moves through it. Through a paring of objects and texts\, how histories are captured and presented surface in prosaic terms\, but carry the weight of history’s missteps and misrepresentations. \n– Curated by Sarah Nesbitt and Jenifer Papararo \n\n\n\n\nWe would like to acknowledge Video Pool Media Arts Centre as co-producers of For Zitkála-Šá by Raven Chacon\, which is a work in progress. \n\n
