SUMMARY:Art Fair Jury Day
DESCRIPTION:February 27\, 2019 at Lake Michigan College\,  9 AM – 5 PM \nFree & Open to the Public \nWatch as the jurors – a panel of professional artists and art experts – select the artists for the 2019 show.  Jurors review the more than 900 artists who submit their work in hopes of being invited to be a 2019 Krasl Art Fair on the Bluff artist. \nNever been to a Jury Day?  This is how it works: \nFormat: 5 jurors view 5 slides on projection screens at a time.  Four of the slides represent the applying artist’s work\, and one is a picture of their booth.  Volunteers read the artist’s statement and description\, the jurors’ score and the next artist is displayed.  All work is anonymous. Only jurors may ask questions. \nThe audience is free to come and go. Jury introductions and rules of the jury begin promptly at 9AM. Jurors take a one hour break close to noon. Jurors review artists by category (there are 11 this year.)  An artist must be “juried in” to participate in the KAF.   Note: This is not an opportunity for artists and the public to interact with the jury. \n

SUMMARY:Arte Cubano
DESCRIPTION:Building on recent events\, this timely exhibition reflects more than twenty-five Cuban artists’ ruminations on the quotidian\, social\, and political realities of the island and the contemporary world. The island geography and political intensity of Cuba inform the work in a way that is immediately identifiable\, often concealing coded\, even subversive\, ideas while simultaneously celebrating the richness of Cuba’s cultural identity. Peeling away the layers of Cuban art often reveals a story of struggle caused by the US embargo and its economic and political consequences\, the social upheaval that a true revolution produces. \nSpanning several generations\, these contemporary Cuban artists come from an unusual place: a country embargoed by our own because of its socialist revolution. All of the artists in this collection grew up in socialist Cuba\, and many graduated from the prestigious Instituto Superior de Arte\, built at the beginning of the revolution\, Havana’s equally excellent San Alejandro Art Academy or the Escuela Nacional de Arte. Others graduated from local art schools. Despite their disparate backgrounds\, aesthetic sensibilities\, subject matter\, materials\, and styles\, there is something uniquely Cuban about the art in this collection. \nMid-America Arts Allliance co-organized Arte Cubano with the Center for Cuban Studies (NYC) to synthesize two extraordinary private collections held by Kathy and Marc LeBaron and Karen and Robert Duncan. This exhibition could not have been made possible without their collecting vision and loan generosity. The Center for Cuban Studies opened in 1972 and was organized by a group of scholars\, writers\, artists\, and other professionals\, in response to the effects of US policy toward Cuba. \nA Program of ExhibitsUSA\, a national division of Mid-America Arts Alliance and The National Endowment for the Arts. \nExhibition Sponsor:  \nPREVIEW PARTY\nFRIDAY\, NOVEMBER 30\n5:30 PM – 8 PM \nPROFESSOR SILVIA PREDRAZA LECTURE – 5:30 PM – 6:30 PM \nSilvia Pedraza\, Professor of Sociology and American Culture at the University of Michigan\, will speak on generational politics\, tracing shifts and differences in the attitudes and experiences of Cuban islanders and those who left.
