SUMMARY:Proposal for a 28th Amendment? Is it Possible to Amend an Unequal System?
DESCRIPTION:Proposal for a 28th Amendment? Is it Possible to Amend an Unequal System? is a participatory installation by artist collaborators Alex Strada and Tali Keren. It critically examines the U.S. Constitution and creates space for intervention and political imagination.\nThe artists ask visitors to engage critically with the U.S. Constitution and pose two questions: What 28th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution would you propose? And: Do you think it is possible to amend an unequal system?\nThey note that the U.S Constitution\, which opens with the phrase ‘We the People\,’ was written in 1787 by and for wealthy white male property owners\, and that to date\, only 27 amendments have been ratified to change the document. Their questions illuminate this legacy and ask for a collective response interrogating the Constitution’s embedded issues of structural racism\, settler-colonial violence\, heteropatriarchy\, reproductive injustice\, labor inequities\, and non-human animal and climate neglect.\nCentral to the installation are sonic soapbox sculptures that build upon the history of the soapbox as a site of collective struggle\, while also emphasizing listening\, mutuality\, and access. These objects emit an in-progress oral archive of responses to the project’s questions.\nCommunity members are invited to become part of the installation by stepping up onto the soapboxes\, listening to the archival recordings\, and adding their responses\, which will be collected and added to the project’s oral archive to be shared in future iterations of the work.\nThe work was initially commissioned by the Queens Museum and site-specific iterations\, and it was then traveled to the Yerba Buena Center for the Arts in San Francisco and the Aldrich Contemporary in CT.\nThe installation will open September 27th and will be on view through January 26th\, concluding a week after the January Inauguration in Washington\, D.C. PRH and the artists are interested in expanding the project’s reach so that diverse audiences around Houston can add their voices to the project’s oral archive. Prairie View A&M Univerisity Architecture Department\, content creation lab\, has generously partnered with PRH to build the soap boxes.

SUMMARY:Facing Survival | David Kassan
DESCRIPTION:This compelling and transformative exhibition features the masterful paintings and drawings of acclaimed artist David Kassan\, capturing the poignant stories and portraits of Holocaust survivors.\n“Facing Survival” stands as a profound testament to the enduring power of art in narrating the untold stories of resilience and survival. Through the evocative paintings and sketches meticulously crafted by Kassan\, the exhibition unveils the profound journey of more than two dozen Holocaust survivors. By intertwining the visual representation of the survivors with the sketches revealing Kassan’s artistic process\, this exhibition transcends conventional forms of testimony\, forging a poignant visual language that surpasses the limitations of spoken or written word.\nPreceding the creation of each portrait\, Kassan deeply engaged with the survivors\, filming their testimonies and comprehending their intricate histories. His profound connection with his subjects enables him to capture not just their present visages\, but the essence of their harrowing pasts. The lifelike imagery pulsates with their spirit\, pain and dignity\, transforming these paintings into testaments of resilience and reflections of lives shaped by unspeakable violence.\nMoreover\, “Facing Survival” aspires to transcend the incomprehensible statistics—such as the unfathomable six million lives lost—to highlight the individuality of each survivor. It is a testament that defies generalization\, seeking to evoke a profound emotional connection\, to allow us to bear witness to the miraculous existence of each singular soul.

SUMMARY:Risky(er) Business
DESCRIPTION:Risky(er) Business celebrates Dmitri Shostakovich and Nikolai Roslavets\, Soviet composers whose experiments and ideologies lived on the perilous line between favor and dissent in the 1920’s-’40s: when music represented power\, politics\, and the perspective of the people. When putting pen to paper wasn’t just risky. It was dangerous\, even subversive. Which of them toed the line safely\, and which landed on the wrong side of scrutiny – and survival? Join the Axiom Quartet as we piece together that history through music.\nThe Second String Quartet of Shostakovich is “Music for the Drawer”\, a now-celebrated masterpiece written with feverish frustration in 1944\, giving voice to the Russian people through a transformed folk song. Stashed unpublished – wisely – for years\, its descriptive twists\, turns\, grotesqueness\, and richness spin a heroic and pointed unspoken manifesto. The Fifth String Quartet (1941) of Ukrainian Nikolai Roslavets has never been performed in the United States since its discovery in 2005\, nor has it been recorded. Roslavets\, a chief academic in the community of 1920’s Russian modernists\, came under scrutiny in the 1930’s. Too late to save face with a government setting an example against intellectuals\, he shipped his scores and publications to students and disciples across the globe for preservation\, plotting a grail quest for historians to recover his work that continues to this day.\nRepertoire:\nRoslavets Quartet No. 5 (UNRECORDED)\n21′ Shostakovich Quartet No. 2\nThere will be no intermission\nAttire: Dressy Casual\, Business Casual

SUMMARY:Scenes From Films I'll Never Make
DESCRIPTION:Marking a major shift in Maloney’s practice\, Scenes From Films I’ll Never Make\, introduces a selection of 10 new oil paintings made by the artist within the last year. As the title suggests\, a lot of the pieces were first conceived as ideas for films that for one reason or another never came to be. Rather than letting these stories fall into the ether\, Maloney breathes new life into them with his brush\, imbuing his images with elements of surrealism or abstraction to help portray the psychological state of his characters. This work stems from Maloney’s own battles with mental illness\, isolation\, and anxiety. However he balances everything with revelry in the comical absurdity of modern life. Maloney’s ultimate concern is with the power of stories and how we as an audience connect to them.\nThe exhibition is on view at Sabine Street’s East Corridor Gallery through November 2.

SUMMARY:Afi Ese and Jaymes Earl: Interconnected Opulence: The African influence on Black urban adornment
DESCRIPTION:The concept of opulence revolves around the symbols of wealth and status that hold significance within a particular community. This show highlights the urban trend of having gold teeth. Coined as grillz by Houston hip-hop culture\, gold teeth have historically held significance in the black community as a symbol of wealth\, success\, and individuality. In many African and African American cultures\, gold teeth are seen as a form of adornment and self-expression\, reflecting a person’s personal style and cultural identity. Additionally\, gold teeth have been used as a way for individuals to display their financial status and social standing\, especially in communities where traditional forms of wealth may not be as easily accessible. Overall\, gold teeth hold a special place in the black community as a symbol of cultural pride\, creativity\, and defiance\, reminding individuals of their heritage and the struggles they have overcome.

SUMMARY:Scenes From Films I'll Never Make
DESCRIPTION:Marking a major shift in Maloney’s practice\, Scenes From Films I’ll Never Make\, introduces a selection of 10 new oil paintings made by the artist within the last year. As the title suggests\, a lot of the pieces were first conceived as ideas for films that for one reason or another never came to be. Rather than letting these stories fall into the ether\, Maloney breathes new life into them with his brush\, imbuing his images with elements of surrealism or abstraction to help portray the psychological state of his characters. This work stems from Maloney’s own battles with mental illness\, isolation\, and anxiety. However he balances everything with revelry in the comical absurdity of modern life. Maloney’s ultimate concern is with the power of stories and how we as an audience connect to them.\nThe exhibition is on view at Sabine Street’s East Corridor Gallery through November 2.

SUMMARY:Facing Survival | David Kassan
DESCRIPTION:This compelling and transformative exhibition features the masterful paintings and drawings of acclaimed artist David Kassan\, capturing the poignant stories and portraits of Holocaust survivors.\n“Facing Survival” stands as a profound testament to the enduring power of art in narrating the untold stories of resilience and survival. Through the evocative paintings and sketches meticulously crafted by Kassan\, the exhibition unveils the profound journey of more than two dozen Holocaust survivors. By intertwining the visual representation of the survivors with the sketches revealing Kassan’s artistic process\, this exhibition transcends conventional forms of testimony\, forging a poignant visual language that surpasses the limitations of spoken or written word.\nPreceding the creation of each portrait\, Kassan deeply engaged with the survivors\, filming their testimonies and comprehending their intricate histories. His profound connection with his subjects enables him to capture not just their present visages\, but the essence of their harrowing pasts. The lifelike imagery pulsates with their spirit\, pain and dignity\, transforming these paintings into testaments of resilience and reflections of lives shaped by unspeakable violence.\nMoreover\, “Facing Survival” aspires to transcend the incomprehensible statistics—such as the unfathomable six million lives lost—to highlight the individuality of each survivor. It is a testament that defies generalization\, seeking to evoke a profound emotional connection\, to allow us to bear witness to the miraculous existence of each singular soul.

SUMMARY:Brenda Biondo: Sun to Earth
DESCRIPTION:Koslov Larsen is pleased to present Sun to Earth\, the gallery’s third solo presentation by artist Brenda Biondo. Combining several series of Biondo’s works\, Sun to Earth introduces new ways of looking at common subjects while challenging viewers’ perception of color and three-dimensional space. The works explored throughout the show focus on atmospheric phenomena and other ephemeral components of the natural world. Unnatural (Texas Tumbleweeds) and Prairie Wheels study the interconnectedness of humans and flora\, inspired by the iconic tumbleweed\, an invasive species brought inadvertently to the United States in the 1870s by Eastern European settlers. Influenced heavily by James Turrell’s Skyspaces\, Perceptual Skies emphasizes the limitless potential of light as a subject and the subjectivity of perception. Biondo states\, “Using a visual language that deconstructs the sky portion of the landscape helps articulate questions about how we engage with our environment and the emotional and psychological effects natural light has on humans.” The images in the series follow the formal aesthetics of modern painting\, particularly minimalism\, while emphasizing the ambiguity between the real and the reproduced.\nSun to Earth will be on view at Koslov Larsen from May 3 – June 21\, 2024.
