Hella Hybrid Series
TIME- Digital Arts
Brett Kashmere
Wednesday, March 4
7:00 PM
Kulas Auditorium
Brett Kashmere is a Pittsburgh- based filmmaker, curator, and casual cultural historian. His work combines traditional research methods with hybrid interfaces, handmade equipment, and materialist aesthetics. Through intricate experimental documentaries and unadorned camera movies, Kashmere explores the intersection of history and (counter-) memory, geographies of identity, and the politics of representation. His films, videos, scholarship, and curated programs have been presented at festivals, conferences and venues internationally and used in university curricula. The film scholar Thomas Waugh writes that Kashmere’s essay-film Valery’s Ankle “may well give momentum (and integrity) to the discourses of sports, masculinity, and nationalism in Canadian cinemas.” Kashmere currently teaches in the Cinema Studies Program at Oberlin College in Ohio and is the founding editor of INCITE! Journal of Experimental Media & Radical Aesthetics.

Lunch on Fridays:
Joe Nanashe
Friday, April 10
12:15 pm
Ohio Bell Auditorium
Joe Nanashe was born and raised in Akron, Ohio. He began his studies at the University of Akron as a painter,
but soon moved on to sculpture, performance and video. The post-industrial landscape of Akron and its emphasis on
manual labor became a major influence on the repetitive task driven nature of his work.
Joe received his BFA from the University of Akron in 2003, and began attending Rutgers University that fall.
During his graduate studies, he further blended performance, video and installation into works that confront the viewer
with issues of violence, control and question the nature of perception. He received his M.F.A. in Visual Arts and the
Paul Robeson Emerging Artist Award in the spring of 2005.
His work has shown at the New York Underground Film Festival, the Cleveland Museum of Contemporary Art, and
the Chicago Underground Film Festival. He has exhibited internationally in Switzerland, Germany, the Netherlands,
Russia, Canada, and Argentina. Currently, Joe lives and works in Brooklyn, NY.
Sponsored by the Foundation and Liberal Arts Environments, Lunch on Fridays is free and open to the public. Pizza is served for the audience. Venues unless otherwise noted are located in CIA’s Gund building at 11141 East Blvd., Cleveland, OH 44106.

Bickford Visiting Artist
Steve Kurtz
Friday, March 20
2:15 pm (Talk starts at 2:30 pm)
Aitken Auditorium
Kurtz is the subject of Leeson’s documentary Strange Culture.
Steve Kurtz is a noted artist and founding member of the participatory theater group Critical Art Ensemble. He currently teaches at the University of Buffalo, The State University of New York, and is a former professor with Carnegie Mellon. Kurtz came to national and international attention when, in 2004, on reporting the death of his wife, Hope Kurtz, he was subsequently arrested on suspicion of bioterrorism. Strange Culture tells the bizarre tale of how an artist, in possession of recognizably benign bacteria used in museum and gallery exhibits, became the target of a criminal investigation driven by the U.S. Patriot Act.

Analogous Fields Residency at Banff Centre Alberta, Canada – Organized by Saul Ostrow and Charles Tucker
For over 70 years The Banff Centre has provided working and career opportunities in the arts. Located in the Mountains of Western Canada, its breathtaking views, committed staff and vibrant creative community has made the Banff Centre a dynamic environment in which artists are inspired to challenge assumptions that go beyond their own expectations.
This Spring Banff is offering another in its series of renowned thematic Residencies. Following on the heels of last year’s “Making Artistic Inquiry Visible,” this year’s “Analogous Fields” deals with the intersect between art and science. Organized by collaborators Charles Tucker, sculptor and artist/researcher, and noted critic and author, Saul Ostrow, the pair participated in last year’s program, Tucker and Ostrow have set for the goal for the 2009 program as the development of new knowledge and the creation of original work extending from the exploration of this convergence. This residency is specifically designed to foster collaborations and exchanges between individuals working in art and science disciplines. Artists, scientists, researchers, scholars, writers as well as collaborative teams are all encouraged to apply. The residency organizers are looking for creative thinking and innovative approaches.
