SUMMARY:Justice Stephen Breyer at Francis W. Parker School
DESCRIPTION:Honorably serving for twenty-eight years as U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer challenges the textualist philosophy of the court’s supermajority with insightful analysis and arguments for a more nuanced view of Constitutional interpretation. Emphasizing the consequential impacts of major legal decisions\, Breyer upends the prevailing textualism approach as outlined in his book Reading the Constitution: Why I Chose Pragmatism\, Not Textualism. Former Justice Breyer and CNN senior Supreme Court analyst Joan Biskupic connect with Chicago Humanities to expand on his views for a flexible\, evolving Constitution. Breyer asserts that pivotal cases like Dobbs and Bruen were incorrectly decided. They underscore the importance of considering the intent and repercussions of legal statutes and offer a compelling case for a more balanced interpretation of law. \nAccessibility: ASL Interpreted\, Open Captions\, Assistive Listening Devices\, and Wheelchair accessible. \nhttps://www.chicagohumanities.org/events/attend/breyer-biskupic/

SUMMARY:David Lamelas: This Is My Place
DESCRIPTION:About the Event\nThis Is My Place is a fictional documentary about the itinerant life and conceptual artwork of artist David Lamelas\, whose sculpture Situacíon de cuatro placas de aluminio (Four Changeable Plaques) (1966)\, is currently on view in Endless. Commissioned by the Institute for Studies on Latin American Art (ISLAA)\, the film features Lamelas interviewed by Marilyn and Larry Fields Curator Carla Acevedo-Yates. Lamelas reflects on a life defined by migration between cultures and countries\, and how those experiences shaped his artistic practice\, which for decades has centered explorations of time and place. \nLamelas speaks with Endless curator Nolan Jimbo after the screening. \nASL is available upon request. Please email jkriegel@mcachicago.org for requests. \nAbout The Artist\nDavid Lamelas (b. 1946\, Buenos Aires\, Argentina; lives between Buenos Aires\, Los Angeles\, and Paris) is a pivotal artist within the histories of conceptual art and experimental film. He was a key figure within the Argentinian avant-garde during the 1960s\, participating in landmark exhibitions at the Instituto Torcuato di Tella in Buenos Aires and representing Argentina at the Venice Biennale in 1968. He then studied at Saint Martin’s School of Art in London and showed his work in pioneering exhibitions of conceptual art throughout the 1970s in Europe and the United States. He moved to Los Angeles during the mid-1970s and since then has divided his time between the United States\, Europe\, and South America.

SUMMARY:“This Living Earth – Our Shared Gaia” exhibition showcase at Beverly Arts Center
DESCRIPTION:WHO: Beverly Arts Center in partnership with the Beverly Area Arts Alliance – https://www.thebeverlyartscenter.com | https://beverlyarts.org/\nWHAT: “This Living Earth – Our Shared Gaia” Exhibition\nWHEN: April 5 – 27\, 2024\nWHERE: Beverly Arts Center\, Simmerling 2nd Floor Gallery\, 2407 W. 111th St\, Chicago\, IL 60655 \nARTISTS’ RECEPTION\n“This Living Earth — Our Shared Gaia” opening reception will be held on Friday\, April 5\, 2024\, 6:00-8:00 p.m. Admission to the family-friendly exhibition and reception is free to the public.\nFacebook Event Invitation: https://www.facebook.com/events/1090169548901618 \nBeverly Arts Center is pleased to present the art exhibition titled “This Living Earth – Our Shared Gaia” in its second floor gallery\, which is a cross section of visual observations from nature by 12 northern Illinois / Indiana artists in a variety of media. Both naturalism and abstraction are investigated by this group of artists: Sharon Bladholm\, Gabriella Boros\, Victoria Fuller\, Kathryn Gauthier\, Fletcher Hayes\, Mike Barret Kolasinski\, Basia Krol\, Deborah Maris Lader\, Kim Laurel\, Dorothy Mason\, Gregory Mejia\, Renee McGinnis. \nThe Gaia theory as a world concept focuses on observing how the biosphere and the evolution of life forms contribute to the stability of our planet. Hortus Botanicus (the botanical garden) is the underlying common influence that permeates each of these artists’ work\, whether of landscape\, plant\, water and animal study or as allegorical metaphors for our natural world in flux. Works exhibited are a figurative treatment of our nature subjects sometimes alluding to other symbolic meanings. \nThose symbols of our natural world are expanded on as pattern\, texture\, color\, form and light. We invite you to observe this diverse group of visual expressions compiled by the curator/artist team of Kim Laurel and Fletcher Hayes. \n“Heaven is under our feet as well as over our heads.” — Henry David Thoreau \nAccessibility: Wheelchair Accessible. \nhttps://www.facebook.com/events/1090169548901618
