SUMMARY:Relational Mindfulness (Hybrid)
DESCRIPTION:How can we bring a more grounded and mindful version of ourselves to friends\, work colleagues\, and family members? This class will provide training in practices aimed at setting clear intentions\, learning to pause in conversation\, and listening deeply for feelings and needs.

SUMMARY:Laura Rathe Fine Art Houston presents Man Made\, a Dual-Exhibition Featuring Paul Rousso and Matt Devine
DESCRIPTION:Laura Rathe Fine Art (LRFA) is proud to announce Man Made\, a dual-exhibition of renowned artists Paul Rousso and Matt Devine. The opening reception will be held Wednesday\, February 21st from 5-8pm at our River Oaks District gallery (4444 Westheimer Rd). Paul Rousso and Matt Devine will be in attendance.\nMan Made serves as a celebration of the artistic prowess of both Paul Rousso and Matt Devine\, two visionaries who bring unique perspectives to the world of contemporary art. The utilization of heat and physicality to manipulate raw materials being fundamental to their practices. The exhibition explores the intersection of nature and human innovation\, creating a dialogue between the organic and the crafted.\nPaul Rousso\, recognized for his mastery of manipulating polystyrene into three-dimensional artworks\, presents a series of works that challenge perceptions of materiality. The works debuted in this exhibition showcase Rousso’s latest development – mirrored color abstracts. The mirrored coating resembles that of a kaleidoscope\, appearing glass-like upon first look. They invite the viewers to explore the depth and complexity of everyday objects\, transforming the mundane into the extraordinary.\nIn contrast\, Matt Devine’s metal sculptures convey a harmonious balance between strength and grace. Devine’s creations\, often characterized by fluid lines and geometric precision\, evoke a sense of movement and transformation. His sculptures\, though made from powerful\, organic materials\, appear weightless in any environment\, as if they could float away.\nThe exhibition will be on display through March 31st\, 2024.

SUMMARY:Reynier Leyva Novo: Former Present Today
DESCRIPTION:The Blaffer Art Museum at the University of Houston is proud to present the first solo museum exhibition in the United States of Cuban conceptual artist Reynier Leyva Novo. Former Present Today presents a newly realized installation and painting series to simultaneously reveal and conceal monuments\, structures\, and figureheads which manifest revolution and tyranny.

SUMMARY:Intimate confession is a project
DESCRIPTION:Intimate confession is a project is a group exhibition that considers transmission\, intergenerational life\, and cultural inheritance through the prism of intimacy and infrastructure. Through the work of eleven artists spanning generations and geographies\, the exhibition thinks through infrastructure as an intimate holding cell\, capable of affective and affirmative power.\nThe title is borrowed from a sonnet line by poet Juliana Spahr\, and is recast to reflect on the relational infrastructures of cultural material. In recent years\, a surge of scholarship on the built and unbuilt environments has emerged contrasting “humans\, things\, words\, and non-humans into patterned conjunctures\,” to quote feminist theorist Michelle Murphy. This exhibition examines how infrastructures can be understood as “affective” in their varied expressions of movement and imprint on cultural life.\nThe exhibition includes commissions and site-specific projects that expand on material and immaterial histories of Houston. At times they refer to the unique context of the Blaffer\, connecting art to other fields of knowledge and experience.\nIntimate confession is a project is accompanied by a rich public program featuring talks\, readings\, concerts\, and performances in connection with a range of citywide and institutional partners across the exhibition’s six-month run\, including Basket Books & Art\, the Sarah Campbell Blaffer Foundation Collection\, Institute for Global Engagement\, Institute for Research on Women\, Gender & Sexuality\, Project Row Houses\, and UH School of Art.\nThe Intimate confession is a project exhibition and programs are organized by guest curator Jennifer Teets

SUMMARY:Six Scenes From Our Future
DESCRIPTION:Presented in coordination with Contemporary Arts Museum Houston’s (CAMH) 75th anniversary\, Six Scenes From Our Future features the work of six artists who were invited to respond to the institution’s inaugural exhibition\, This Is Contemporary Art (1948). This first show proposed a radical approach to the presentation of art. Offering unexpected pairings—like a Jacob Lawrence painting alongside a cheese slicer\, or an Alexander Calder mobile in dialogue with Eames screens and a Sunbeam coffeemaker—the exhibition merged museological and domestic contexts while also challenging entrenched hierarchies between the fine arts and design. This Is Contemporary Art set the stage for CAMH as a site of experimentation and play\, while announcing the Museum as a forward-thinking space centered around a belief in the transformational power of art and artists. So\, too\, did the inaugural exhibition position artists as uniquely capable of addressing and reflecting upon a constantly changing world\, asserting art and life as inseparable.\nSix Scenes From Our Future continues CAMH’s longstanding commitment to centering the visions and voices of artists. Working across sculpture\, photography\, video\, and painting\, the six selected artists will mine CAMH’s history to create new work or reframe extant work\, highlighting the institution’s ongoing commitment to commissioning artwork. The participating artists are either from or currently based in Texas\, with many located in Houston\, or have a deep connection to the Museum. Six Scenes From Our Future provides an opportunity to honor CAMH’s past while emphasizing the central role that artists have played and will continue to play in envisioning its future.\nParticipating Artists\nMel Chin\, JooYoung Choi\, Leslie Hewitt\, Lisa Lapinski\, Jill Magid\, and Leslie Martinez\nSupport\nSix Scenes From Our Future has been made possible by the patrons\, benefactors and donors to CAMH’s Major Exhibition Fund: Chinhui Juhn and Eddie Allen\, Sissy and Denny Kempner\, Dillon Kyle and Sam Lasseter\, MD Anderson Foundation\, Rea Charitable Trust\, Louisa Stude Sarofim\, The Sarofim Foundation\, and the Texas Commission on the Arts.\nContemporary Arts Museum Houston is funded in part by the City of Houston through the Houston Arts Alliance.

SUMMARY:Timothy McCoy  Beyond My Lens art exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Timothy McCoy creates images in order to transform the “reality” seen through the camera lens into an expression of the oneness and wonder found in Taoist/Buddhist philosophy. These photographs are meditations on the constant and inevitable change in nature. The flow of water is one object of this contemplation. The flow of water and the human journey have parallels. According to Eastern philosophy\, mankind’s resistance to transformation leads to suffering.\nSelected photographs from three bodies of his work emphasize “alternative” photographic processes  Tongues Turned to Stone (photogravure on gamphi-shi paper)\, Sanctuary (palladium on translucent vellum)\, and Long\, Long Journey to the Sea (gold-toned albumen). He chose these historical printing processes to evoke the timelessness of his content and his interpretive rather than documentary intent.

SUMMARY:'Rafael Domenech and Tomas Vu  Heat Silhouette'
DESCRIPTION:Asia Society Texas is pleased to present Rafael Domenech and Tomas Vu  Heat Silhouette\, the organization’s first public art installation. This collaboration between Cuban American artist Rafael Domenech and Vietnamese American artist Tomas Vu assumes the form of a dynamic outdoor pavilion with two stages\, occupying AST’s 13\,000-square-foot lot at the intersection of Oakdale and Caroline Streets in the heart of Houston’s Museum District. Rafael Domenech and Tomas Vu  Heat Silhouette is commissioned in partnership with the University of Houston’s Cynthia Woods Mitchell Center for the Arts.\nDescribed by the artists as a form of “urban acupuncture\,” Heat Silhouette is a physical structure designed to welcome the spontaneous circulation of people\, energy\, and events. The outdoor pavilion takes cues from college campuses\, popular culture\, and experimental magazines. Made of wood\, aluminum framing\, and laser-cut construction mesh — the very materials used to build the city of Houston — the pavilion becomes an extension of the museum and a public programming space. The title itself references the most omnipresent weather condition of Houston  the summer’s intense heat\, a heat so palpable that it feels as if it occupies actual space\, creating a silhouette or edge.\nFor the artists\, the pavilion resists merely being a form of architecture. Instead\, the pavilion physically operates as an experimental magazine\, referencing the graphic processes seen in radical publications from the 1960s and 1970s like Kontexts\, an important catalyst of avant-garde poetry. Readers do not flip Heat Silhouette’s pages; instead\, they become viewers that are invited to walk in\, around\, and through the publication. Laser-cut texts appropriated from popular science-fiction films\, poetry\, and other sources intermingle to form multiple layers and viewpoints that shift with the sunlight. Heat Silhouette is a space of active production filled with theater-like compartments — a site where text\, image\, and pattern coalesce into a kind of urban camouflage.

SUMMARY:Dark Matter\, Dark Energy\, Dark Imaginarence Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Nathaniel Donnett\nDark Matter\, Dark Energy\, Dark Imaginarence\nSolo Exhibition\n“For them\, as for me\, imagining is not merely looking or looking at; nor is it\ntaking oneself intact into the other. It is\, for the purposes of the work\, becoming.”\nToni Morrison\nThe University Museum is pleased to present Dark Matter\, Dark Energy\, Dark Imaginarence\, Nathaniel Donnett’s solo exhibition at Texas Southern University. The artist’s multimedia works consider how people navigate space and time through nonlinear trajectories and ask how abstraction reflects our realities while offering multiple ways to perceive them. Donnett examines the role imagination plays in contending with obstacles in our lives that manifest as systemic limitations and constitute nuanced moments of discovery.\nThe exhibition takes inspiration from the life of Ed Dwight\, an ex-Navy pilot who almost became the first Black astronaut to enter outer space but was denied because of sociopolitical interference and racial hostility. He later reimagined himself and became a sculptor. Following that path\, Donnett’s works—textiles\, sculpture\, installation\, sound\, video\, and\, importantly\, community engagement in the form of a backpack exchange with students from historic Black neighborhoods in Houston (Third Ward\, Sunnyside\, Acres Homes\, Fifth Ward)—combine the unknown and the embodied to search out Black cosmologies and material constellations that act as poetics\, prompts\, processes\, and presentations for lived transformation.\nDonnett approaches his practice through the lens of Dark Imaginarence\, a concept of art\, everyday aesthetic theory\, and notion(s) of Blackness. The exhibition also reflects on theories concerned with fugitivity\, spatial understanding\, and becoming: Gaston Bachelard’s The Poetics of Space\, which describes the house as a shelter and universe allowing for dreaming and protection; Fred Moten’s notion of enclosure\, a psychological entrapment caused by social precarity; and Michel Foucault’s concept of heterotopias\, an engagement with the plurality of space and time.\nFor example\, the centerpiece of the exhibition\, Staring at infinity through the corners of asymmetry (2023)\, uses reclaimed materials to recreate a geometric form shotgun house that references histories embedded within architecture\, and expansive galactic dreams.\nDonnett’s process is as much philosophical as it is musical—and concerned with how everyday actions and common materials hold memories and serve as witnesses to\nlived experiences. His recent works investigate tensions between the rational and the irrational as a route for accessing generative ways of moving\, thinking\, and living hidden within our subconscious that might help us reframe and redefine ourselves—and negotiate life’s constraints. Dark Matter\, Dark Energy\, Dark Imaginarence asks: What could happen if we changed our questions from “What is the sum of two plus two?” to “What is the sum of two plus a spaceship\, divided by Earth\, Wind & Fire’s song’ Devotion\,’ multiplied by the first half of Andrei Tarkovsky’s film Solaris?”\nThis project is supported by the Guggenheim Foundation\, Houston Arts Alliance\, and the University Museum at Texas Southern University.\nNathaniel Donnett was born in Houston\, Texas. Donnett received his B.A. in Fine Arts from Texas Southern University\, and his MFA from Yale University School of Art. Nathaniel received the 2024 American Academy of Rome Affiliated Fellowship\, a 2022 John Simon Guggenheim Fellowship\, a 2022 Houston Arts Alliance Individual Artist Grant\, a Dean’s Critical Practice Research Grant from Yale\, and an Art and Social Justice Initiative Grant from Yale (2020)\, among others.\nHis work has been exhibited nationally at The Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art\, Bentonville\, AK; the Virginia Museum of Fine Art\, Richmond\, VA; the Mennello Museum\, Orlando\, FL; the Ulrich Museum\, Wichita\, KS; Project Row Houses\, Houston\, TX\, The Virginia Museum of Contemporary Art\, Virginia Beach\, VA\, The American Museum\, Washington D.C.\, The University Museum\, Houston\, TX\, The Kemper Contemporary Arts Museum\, Kansas City\, MO\, The Mattatuck Museum\, Waterbury CT\, The Contemporary Arts Museum Houston\, Houston\, TX\, and The New Museum\, New York\, NY.

SUMMARY:Pests: How Humans Create Animal Villains
DESCRIPTION:Why do we love cats and hate rats? Why do we adore elephants and fear snakes? Scientist and science writer Bethany Brookshire argues it’s all a matter of perspective\, and where we want animals to be. When they’re in zoos\, or wild places\, we love them and can’t wait to get close. But when animals pop up where we don’t expect\, we respond with fear\, rage\, or simple annoyance. It’s no longer an animal. It’s a pest.\nJoin Bethany Brookshire as she dissects the dynamic between human and pests\, and why some animals earn our love\, and others our hate.\nEligible for CPE credit.\nDistinguished Lectures are supported by Apache Corporation.

SUMMARY:Writers of Color
DESCRIPTION:INSTRUCTOR: Julia Brown\nTIME: Six Tuesdays\, February 13\, 20\, 27\, March 5\, 12\, 19\, 6:00–9:00 p.m. CST\nPRICE: Early bird price: $210 for members\, $240 for nonmembers. The deadline for early bird pricing is Wednesday\, February 7. After Wednesday\, February 7: $240 for members\, $270 for nonmembers. Become a member here. Apply for a scholarship here.\nLOCATION: Writespace\, 1907 Sabine Street\, #125\, Houston\, TX 77007 (map)\nLEVEL: All levels\nCAP: 15\n​Where does our inspiration come from?\nHow do we dive into our own uniqueness to write the stories and poems that are uniquely our own?\nIn this multi-genre\, six-week course\, we will consider these questions and others to help us better understand ourselves as narrative engines.\nWe will focus on writing\, close reading\, and workshopping\, immersing ourselves in our craft\, whether literary fiction or slam or sci-fi. We will familiarize ourselves with the fundamentals of prose and poetry in order to apply those elements to our work\, reading work by published writers in order to expand our sense of narrative possibility. We will support each other in taking risks and being vulnerable\, and use workshop to offer and receive feedback\, gather ideas for revision\, and refine our responses to works in progress.\nOver the last few decades\, organizations designed to support and promote the work of writers of color have emerged across the country. Cave Canem\, Kundiman\, Canto Mundo\, VONA\, Kimbilio\, and others recognize the need to provide writers of color with the kind of community and workshop space that encourages taking risks\, resisting stereotypes (in ourselves\, others\, and in our writing)\, and creating poems\, stories\, novels\, and essays that speak to the range of our experience as human beings. This workshop shares these intentions and seeks to provide Houston writers of color with the freedom and support offered by these organizations.\nThis workshop is open to writers of all backgrounds typically underrepresented in American literature\, including\, but not limited to\, writers who identify themselves as African American or Caribbean\, Asian American\, Middle Eastern\, Chicanx\, Hispanic\, and Latinx. Expect to come away with fierce new work\, as well as a renewed sense of the power found through community.\nThis workshop is funded in part by a grant from Poets & Writers.\nThis event is funded in part by the City of Houston through Houston Arts Alliance. This project is generously funded by the Houston Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs\, and Mid-America Arts Alliance.

SUMMARY:Intimate confession is a project
DESCRIPTION:Intimate confession is a project is a group exhibition that considers transmission\, intergenerational life\, and cultural inheritance through the prism of intimacy and infrastructure. Through the work of eleven artists spanning generations and geographies\, the exhibition thinks through infrastructure as an intimate holding cell\, capable of affective and affirmative power.\nThe title is borrowed from a sonnet line by poet Juliana Spahr\, and is recast to reflect on the relational infrastructures of cultural material. In recent years\, a surge of scholarship on the built and unbuilt environments has emerged contrasting “humans\, things\, words\, and non-humans into patterned conjunctures\,” to quote feminist theorist Michelle Murphy. This exhibition examines how infrastructures can be understood as “affective” in their varied expressions of movement and imprint on cultural life.\nThe exhibition includes commissions and site-specific projects that expand on material and immaterial histories of Houston. At times they refer to the unique context of the Blaffer\, connecting art to other fields of knowledge and experience.\nIntimate confession is a project is accompanied by a rich public program featuring talks\, readings\, concerts\, and performances in connection with a range of citywide and institutional partners across the exhibition’s six-month run\, including Basket Books & Art\, the Sarah Campbell Blaffer Foundation Collection\, Institute for Global Engagement\, Institute for Research on Women\, Gender & Sexuality\, Project Row Houses\, and UH School of Art.\nThe Intimate confession is a project exhibition and programs are organized by guest curator Jennifer Teets
