SUMMARY:Kate Fowle: The Reflexive Museum
DESCRIPTION:Kate Fowle: The Reflexive Museum\nThe Museum Is Not What It Used To Be speaker series\nWednesday\, November 29\, 6:30 – 8:30 pm\nScrap Metal Gallery\, 11 Dublin Street\, Unit E \n  \n\n\n\n\nKate Fowle is Chief Curator for the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art in Moscow and Director-at-Large at Independent Curators International (ICI) in New York. \nFounded in 2008\, Garage Museum of Contemporary Art was one of the new wave of institutions established since the turn of the millennium in (re)emerging art centres around the world. Conceived as a place where people\, art\, and ideas\, create history\, the Museum provides access to knowledge\, the agency to ask questions\, and a forum for public debate. Through prioritizing collaboration and dialog it has developed as a production house\, working closely with artists to form a broad program of exhibitions\, performance\, education\, training\, research\, and publishing that engages with both international and local concerns. \nHaving welcomed over 2 million visitors since 2015—when Garage moved to its first permanent home—the Museum has become integral to Moscow’s creative life.  Now\, in preparation for the 10th anniversary\, attentions are turning to the future. As a contemporary institution in an evolving\, young culture—one that is not beholden to either the nineteenth- or twentieth-century museum models—the question is what imaginaries will support the advancement of a reflexive museum that can critically contribute to twenty-first-century society? \nWith thanks to Scrap Metal Gallery for providing the venue.

SUMMARY:Basil AlZeri: The Most Prized Of All Closets
DESCRIPTION:Basil AlZeri’s performance-lecture The Most Prized of All Closets explores the dual function of the pantry as a site of preservation and resistance. The pantry serves a basic function in a home as the place where fermented\, pickled\, preserved and dried foods are stored. With the advent of the global production and distribution of food\, many people are losing their connection to their local food practices\, traditions\, cultures\, and\, thus\, their pantries. For this reason\, social movements aiming to revitalize local food cultures and establish food sovereignty see the pantry as a vital site in the struggle against globalization and colonialism. Through an examination of the role of the pantry in Canada\, Estonia\, and Palestine\, AlZeri examines the pantry as a complex site where cultural\, economic\, political and social preservation become intertwined with practices of resistance. \n  \nBasil AlZeri: Most Prized Of All Closets\nPart of The Art of Propagation series\nWednesday\, November 8\, 7 – 9 pm\nHenderson Brewery\, 128A Sterling Rd.\nRSVP for free admission \n  \nThe Art of Propagation \nThe Art of Propagation presents a monthly conversation about varied relationships between culture\, food and social histories. The series features artists who broaden perspectives on art and culture through acts and projects of cultivation\, fermentation and propagation. \n  \nThe series will continue every second Wednesday of the month through March 2018 at Henderson Brewery\, MOCA’s future neighbour on Sterling Rd. \n  \nBasil AlZeri \nBasil AlZeri is a visual artist living and working in Toronto\, Canada. AlZeri’s practice involves the intersection of art\, education\, and food\, taking multiple forms\, such as performance\, interventions\, gallery and public installation. AlZeri’s work examines the socio-political dynamics of the family and its intersection with cultural practices\, drawing on the necessities of everyday life and the visibility of labour as sites of exploration. His work aims to facilitate a space for empathy through gestures of inclusivity and generosity. \n  \nHenderson Brewing Co.\n128A Sterling Rd\nHenderson Brewing company is a locally owned\, award winning\, neighbourhood brewery in downtown Toronto.

SUMMARY:MOCA Lounge at Art Toronto
DESCRIPTION:In partnership with superkül\, MOCA will be sharing proposals for the entry floor landscape of its future home on Sterling Road within a lounge in the SOLO Section of the fair. \nsuperkül’s seating structure responds to the mushroom column heads found in the Auto Building\, designed by architect J. W. Schreiber. Erected in 1919\, the building continues to be an important early example of flat-slab concrete construction. At the fair\, MOCA’s installation will act as a prototype for a circular seating composition that tests form\, scale\, user-friendliness and flexibility. A key element of the finish\, the surface detailing\, will be inspired by material textures found inside the heritage building. \nCome join the conversation and help select final aspects of the design in the lead up to MOCA’s opening in spring 2018. \n  \nArt Toronto \nFriday\, October 27\, 12 – 8pm\nSaturday\, October 28\, 12 – 8pm\nSunday\, October 29\, 12 – 6pm\nMonday\, October 30\, 12 – 6pm \nMetro Toronto Convention Centre\nNorth Building\, Exhibit Hall A & B\n255 Front Street West\, Toronto  \nFounded in 2000\, Art Toronto is Canada’s international contemporary and modern art fair\, located at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre in the city’s downtown core.

SUMMARY:Amy Franceschini: A Farm That Sailed Away
DESCRIPTION:Amy Franceschini\, founder of Futurefarmers\, inaugurates MOCA’s The Art of Propagation series of conversations. Thinking about site\, environmental awareness\, food culture and agriculture\, Franceschini is invited to work with MOCA and across the city on a long-term engagement. The aim\, in time\, is to filter her thinking and actions\, in collaboration with local organizations\, artists\, researchers\, designers\, architects\, scientists and farmers. Her performative lecture will discuss Seed Journey\, a seafaring voyage from Oslo to Istanbul that linked the commons as they relate to local networks and a global complex of seed savers and stewards of the land\, air and water. \nThe Art of Propagation presents a monthly conversation about varied relationships between culture\, food and social histories. Franceshini’s event will be followed by presentations with five local artists who broaden perspectives on art and culture through acts and projects of cultivation*\, fermentation and propagation. \nThe Art of Propagation will continue every second Wednesday of the month from October 2017 – March 2018 at Henderson Brewery\, MOCA’s future neighbour on Sterling Rd. \n  \nAmy Franceschini: A Farm That Sailed Away\n Part of The Art of Propagation series\nWednesday\, October 11\, 7 – 9 pm\n Henderson Brewery\, 128A Sterling Rd.\nReserve a free ticket here \n  \nClick here to read a response to A Farm That Sailed Away by Alma Mikulinsky \n  \nAmy Franceschini \nLiving and working in San Francisco\, Amy Franceschini is an artist\, designer and founder of Futurefarmers. Futurefarmers use various media to create work that has the potential to destabilize logics of “certainty”. They deconstruct systems such as food policies\, public transportation and rural farming networks to visualize and understand their intrinsic logics. Through this disassembly new narratives emerge that reconfigure the principles that once dominated these systems. Futurefarmers’ work often provides a playful entry point and tools for participants to gain insight into deeper fields of inquiry- not only to imagine\, but to participate in and initiate change in the places we live.\nClick here to reserve your ticket \n  \nHenderson Brewing Co.\n128A Sterling Rd\nHenderson Brewing company is a locally owned\, award winning\, neighbourhood brewery in downtown Toronto.

SUMMARY:The Museum Is Not What It Used to Be: Vasif Kortun
DESCRIPTION:The program of talks\, The Museum Is Not What It Used To Be\, invites arts professionals to share their thoughts on how to create a museum model that answers to the pressures of our extreme present\, but at the same time establishes a meaningful and enduring agenda. \nThe first speaker\, Vasif Kortun\, founding Director of Research and Programs\, SALT\, Istanbul and Ankara\, will explore institutional time frames\, non-capitalist museum conditions\, zombie institutions and survivalist expansions with his talk\, Questions on Institutions. \n“The average lifespan of a private company is less than a century\, something like 75 years\, but public time is supposed or expected to be more or less infinite. The museum is a three centuries old operation making it older than most countries\, economic or political systems. It has however veered away from its legacy to align with others\, namely the theme park and the industrial fair.”  Vasif Kortun \nFuture speakers will include Kate Fowle\, Chief Curator for the Garage Museum of Contemporary Art in Moscow and Director-at-Large at Independent Curators International in New York as well as Alistair Hudson\, Director of Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art.\n \n  \nWatch the video:\n \n\n  \nVasif Kortun: Questions on Institutions\nSunday\, October 1\n2:30– 4:00pm\nUniversity of Toronto\nJohn H.

SUMMARY:Members' Event: Studio visit with Akin Collective featuring artists Oliver Pauk and Michael Vickers
DESCRIPTION:Open to mocamigos members and up ($150+) \nJoin us as we visit the studios of visual artists Oliver Pauk and Michael Vickers followed by a tour of AkinCollective. Light refreshments will be served. \nRSVP to Anne Rawn arawn@museumofcontemporaryart.ca by March 17\, space is limited. \nExact location details will be provided closer to the date of the studio visit. \nAkin Collective provides studio and shared workspace to over 160 artists\, designers and creatives working across almost 20\,000 square feet of studio space in 4 main Toronto hubs. Its sister organization\, Akin Projects is a registered nonprofit that offers free and low-cost creative programming and professional development opportunities to members of Toronto’s artistic and cultural community and to the public at large. \nLearn more about Akin Collective in their recent Toronto Star feature: ‘Akin Collective buys artists space and time’ \nOliver Pauk’s work cent​res around photographic\, sculptural\, and video-based elements straddling the boundary between physical and digital art. His specific interest lies in exploring the ways in which digitally captured objects can be translated back into the physical realm. Because objects in a digital state can fluctuate between mediums when edited and reformatted\, Pauk engages with this idea by presenting his work across various mediums. Oliver holds an Honours BA in Economics from the University of Toronto. Recent exhibitions include Volta 12 Basel; Mercer Union; Art Gallery of Ontario; Angell Gallery; Patrick Mikhail Gallery; Toronto International Film Festival; and The Gardiner Museum. \nMichael Vickers is a Toronto-based artist with a practice that works in the space between sculpture\, painting and installation. His recent work investigates the limits of different materials and presentation methods – painted\, curled and bent forms made of various painted aluminums and steels\, etched and engraved stone and marble works\, and installations that activate the exhibition space in different ways.  Vickers holds an MA in Art History from the University of Toronto and an Honours BA in Visual Arts & Communications and has exhibited locally and internationally- including presentations at Volta Basel\, Mercer Union\, Clark House Mumbai\, Division Gallery\, Patrick Mikhail Gallery and installations at the Art Gallery of Ontario and The Gardiner Museum. \n  \nImage: Oliver Pauk (right) and Michael Vickers (left)\, visual artists and collaborators on management of the Akin Collective.

SUMMARY:mocamigos Event: Studio visit with artist Nep Sidhu
DESCRIPTION:Open to mocamigos members \nJoin us for a visit to artist Nep Sidhu‘s  Leslieville studio and some light refreshments. \nRSVP to Anne Rawn arawn@museumofcontemporaryart.ca by March 3\, space is limited. \nExact location details will be provided closer to the date of the studio visit. \nNep Sidhu’s art practice resides along a continuum comprised of conceptual and technical components originating from antiquity\, with relevance for the present. His sculptural practice combines language\, light-baring materials\, and incantation thus creating a third space that unifies endless parallels and possibilities. This work is informed by the interplay of script\, the poetic wave of architecture\, and an affinity for community. To date\, Sidhu has produced large-scale explorations around ancestor veneration\, the divine feminine\, and the intersection of myth and history. \nWith the divine feminine in mind\, along with a sense of pride and values that has become unbalanced in Sidhu’s ancestral home of Chakar\, Punjab. Sidhu and his family along with Davinder Singh have formed Sher-E-Punjab Academy as an institution of boxing and learning for the village youth of Chakar.  In addition to the physical regimen\, the students are also engaged by educational programming and life coaching. \nThe family’s focused approach to bring change to the community is by the empowerment of young girls\, who are the building blocks to their future. With boxing being the forefront of this initiative\, Sidhu explores the intersection of Ceremony and Sport through his textile and adornment practise under Paradise Sportif. It is here where Sidhu’s investigation into vestment and a non-commercial clothing line\, discloses the ideal conduct for maximum sustainability in contemporary spaces. The guiding principle is protect and exalt. Paradise Sportifreadies individuals (from women in the school to the arts collective Black Constellation and Shabazz Palaces) to engage with the sacred that exists within themselves and their environment. Aesthetic components drawn from myriad textile and ornament traditions which leverage\, reinforce\, and disguise ceremony. A dialogue between sport and ceremony upholds considerations around time\, place\, and divine connectivity. \nImage: Malcolm’s Smile\, 7a\, 7b\, 7 c 2015 Wool\, poly-cotton\, aluminum\, 150 x 96 x 15 in. each. Commissioned by the Frye Art Museum and funded by the Frye Foundation\, Douglas Smith. Courtesy of the Artist.

SUMMARY:Members’ Event: Studio visit with artist Rajni Perera
DESCRIPTION:Offered to moccamigos members \nmocamigo members are invited to visit the studio of the Canadian Artist Taking On The Global Art Market: Rajni Perera. \nArtist Biography: \nI explore issues of hybridity\, sacrilege\, irreverence\, the indexical sciences\, ethnography\, gender\, sexuality\, popular culture\, deities\, monsters and dream worlds. All of these themes marry in a newly objectified realm of mythical symbioses. They are flattened on the medium and made to act as my personal record of impossible discoveries. \nMy approach to the deconstruction of the non-European\, female body image\, delving into the miniaturist aesthetic as in “The New Ethnology”\, “The New Archaeology” and the “Yogini” series\, manifests itself in the form of re-appropriated religious icons. Leveraging embellished photographic portraiture as in “Maharajas” and “Maharanis” challenges contemporary notions of masculinity viewed through the non-European\, female lens.By painting these object-beings\, I am engaging in a discussion with the viewing audience about the aesthetic treatment of gender and the non-European sacred and secular body in a popular culture context. \nThese saccharine women and stoic men\, flaunting their blood\, breasts and armor around and throughout the stretched paper surface\, conceal violent stories and ideologies; a complex dichotomy that is not explored or discussed in internationally (or more particularly Western) circulated imagery of Hindu and Tantric gods and goddesses. It is much the same for the ethnic body image\, as represented in print media and online or screen culture. The semiology becomes reduced\, simplified and pared down to suit a blander ideological palette. \nIn my work\, I seek to open and reveal the dynamism of these icons\, both scripturally existent\, self-invented and externally defined. I am creating a subversive aesthetic that counteracts antiquated\, oppressive discourse\, and acts as a restorative force through which people can move outdated\, repressive modes of being towards reclaiming their power. \nLimited registration. RSVP required.
