We need more crosswalks like this one here across Broad Street in front of the Convention Center in Philadelphia.

 

It's not at the corner, it's in the middle of the block. There should be more crosswalks in the middle of the block like this one here.

Grumman Greenhouse was designed by Philadelphia artist Jordan Griska and installed in Lenfest Plaza in August of 2011. Grumman S2F Tracker was a 45-foot-long cold war era Naval plane with a 73’ wingspan used to bomb submarines. Griska obtained the decommissioned plane and folded the metal of the nose and body of the plane so that it appears to have crashed into the platform, and turned the existing sections into working greenhouses.

Both books were published by Duke University Press and translated into Korean. As a political and cultural sociologist and scholar of gender studies specializing in South Korea, she has published numerous articles in major scholarly journals and has been also consulted by news media, including CNN, the Economist, El Pais, El Periodico (Spain), Korea Herald (South Korea), South China Morning Post (Hong Kong), and Weekendavisen (Denmark). Currently, she is finishing up a book manuscript that examines the relationship between neoliberalism and democracy through the lens of civic activism in South Korea.

Her current projects include Asian Diasporas Digital Archive, a digital oral history repository at the Northwestern Library; “Performing History: Documenting and Enacting the Asian American Midwest,” an oral history and performance project with scholars at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, funded by the Humanities Without Walls consortium; Memories of War, an undergraduate research seminar and oral history project on the life narratives of Vietnamese and Korean Americans; and a book on Korean diasporas in China, Japan, and the United States. Active in community organizations, she is a co-founder of the Alliance of Scholars Concerned about Korea, a board member of Korea Policy Institute, and former board president of KANWIN, a Korean American women's organization focusing on domestic violence. She is a native of Seoul and Chicago, a former journalist, and a fan of genre fiction.

 

Workshop: "Creative Storytelling: A Screenprinting Workshop on Migration & Urban Narratives" with Rodney Camarce, Asian Arts Initiative and Maria Dumlao

 

Maria Dumlao works with combined media, including film, video, animation, sound, photography, embroidery and installation. Her work explores individual and collective history as mediated experience. Dumlao combines images of history, mythology and folklore, landscapes, and creatures to propose alternatives to the systemic representations ordered by colonial narratives. Born Tagalog in the Philippines, Dumlao immigrated to the US mainland, where she currently lives and works in the traditional homelands of the Lenape in Philadelphia. Dumlao received a BA in Studio Art & Art History from Rutgers College and MFA in Studio Art at Hunter College-CUNY; has exhibited, screened and performed both nationally and internationally; and recently was awarded 2021 Velocity Fund, the 2020 Leeway Transformation Award, the 2020-21 Philadelphia Photo Art Center Artist-in-Residence, the 2019 Independence Foundation Visual Arts Fellowship, and the 2019-21 Center for Emerging Visual Artist Fellowship. This past year’s (2021) exhibitions include, Pearlstein Gallery (Philadelphia), Michener Art Museum (Doylestown), Philadelphia Photo Arts Center (Philadelphia), and TCNJ Art Gallery (Trenton). Upcoming projects include Mas Masarap Magkasama (more delicious together), a public and interactive 2-season project in collaboration with Bahay215 at The Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education (Philadelphia, 2022), residencies at Interlude Art Residency (Hudson, NY 2022) and Portside Arts Center (Philadelphia, 2022), and a solo exhibition at Rowan University Art Gallery (Glassboro, 2023).

 

Rodney Camarce returns to the Asian Arts Initiative after serving multiple arts organizations throughout Philadelphia as a visual artist, a facilitator, the Youth Development Manager for the Mural Arts Program and a graphic recorder for the Bartol Foundation, Lenfest Foundation, and Ground Work USA. He has served as a Co-Ambassador for the Racial Equity Network for the National Guild for Community Arts, has been a Community Organizer in South Philadelphia and the International District in Seattle, works to build solidarity among all people in struggle, believes that we must subvert this cultural genocide by any means necessary, and practice radical optimism to imagine new possibilities.

The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts (PAFA) witnessed a milestone in the history of this institution, the nation’s first museum and school of the fine arts, when Paint Torch, a sculpture by internationally renowned artist Claes Oldenburg was installed. This new public artwork, a site-specific sculpture commissioned by PAFA for Lenfest Plaza, makes Philadelphia home to four large-scale public works by the artist – more than any other city in the world. Paint Torch marks Oldenburg’s first large-scale work to incorporate light sources.

Installed at a daring 60-degree diagonal position, the 51-foot high Paint Torch sculpture stands on the point of its handle in a gravity-defying gesture. Nearby on the Plaza floor is a six-foot high “glob” of paint, part of which the brush has lifted into the sky in a depiction of the act of painting a picture.

Workshop: "Creative Storytelling: A Screenprinting Workshop on Migration & Urban Narratives" with Rodney Camarce, Asian Arts Initiative and Maria Dumlao

 

Maria Dumlao works with combined media, including film, video, animation, sound, photography, embroidery and installation. Her work explores individual and collective history as mediated experience. Dumlao combines images of history, mythology and folklore, landscapes, and creatures to propose alternatives to the systemic representations ordered by colonial narratives. Born Tagalog in the Philippines, Dumlao immigrated to the US mainland, where she currently lives and works in the traditional homelands of the Lenape in Philadelphia. Dumlao received a BA in Studio Art & Art History from Rutgers College and MFA in Studio Art at Hunter College-CUNY; has exhibited, screened and performed both nationally and internationally; and recently was awarded 2021 Velocity Fund, the 2020 Leeway Transformation Award, the 2020-21 Philadelphia Photo Art Center Artist-in-Residence, the 2019 Independence Foundation Visual Arts Fellowship, and the 2019-21 Center for Emerging Visual Artist Fellowship. This past year’s (2021) exhibitions include, Pearlstein Gallery (Philadelphia), Michener Art Museum (Doylestown), Philadelphia Photo Arts Center (Philadelphia), and TCNJ Art Gallery (Trenton). Upcoming projects include Mas Masarap Magkasama (more delicious together), a public and interactive 2-season project in collaboration with Bahay215 at The Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education (Philadelphia, 2022), residencies at Interlude Art Residency (Hudson, NY 2022) and Portside Arts Center (Philadelphia, 2022), and a solo exhibition at Rowan University Art Gallery (Glassboro, 2023).
