SUMMARY:First Friday: Poetry Reading with Viento & Ms. Boogie
DESCRIPTION:Poster House is pleased to welcome viento and Ms. Boogie for an evening of poetry. These talented\, multi-hyphenate artists are sure to impress guests with their moving and insightful approach to verse. Ms.Boogie is an Afro-Latina Brooklyn-based MC and activist. Sex appeal\, independence\, and the power of femininity are at the top of her agenda as an artist—all topics readily discussed in the exhibition Ethel Reed: I Am My Own Property. Meanwhile\, viento izquierdo ugaz is a multidisciplinary artist who considers the effect of migration on the visual language of their lineage\, topics close to the many displaced artists featured in The Utopian Avant-Garde: Soviet Film Posters of the 1920s. \n\nMs.Boogie is a Afro-Latina Brooklyn based MC and activist. Sex appeal\, independence and the power of femininity are at the top of her agenda as an artist. She stands tall at the intersections of underground and Mainstream Media as a Black Trans Woman in the genre of Hip Hop. She has dedicated her artistry to building a bridge between the avant-garde and conventional gaze of Rap & Hip Hop. Her music is rooted in amplifying the narratives of Black Trans Woman\, a narrative which is often erased in Black Pop Culture. With Records like ‘Fem Queen’ and ‘Dickscipline’ she manages to not only represent her existence but also heal Black Trans Women by simply making them feel seen while simultaneously educating her audience who may not be privy to the realities she faces within her experience. In December of 2021 Ms.Boogie was featured in print for Vogue Mexico as well as being listed as a Emerging Talent in Peoples Magazine. \n\n\nviento izquierdo ugaz is a multidisciplinary artist\, cultural organizer\, art director & language justice worker based between Lima & New York. Through poetry\, photography\, thread and moving image they consider the effect of migration on the visual language of their lineage\, and how this lexicon permeates their queer & trans chosen family archive. \nThey are founder of Peru-based\, Cabritas Resistiendo\, a mutable platform which creates spaces for trans folks to resist together through learning and joy virtually and IRL. They are also co-organizer of BODYHACK\, a NY/global mutual aid happy hour for trans & non-binary people\, and co-founder of rogueTHEIF\, an upcycled denim brand/performative gesture seeking to poke holes in capitalist modes of exchange. \nviento is a consultant with Transgender Equity Consulting and a current Leslie Lohman Museum and EMERGENYC Fellow whose work has appeared in El Museo del Barrio\, A.I.R\, The Poetry Project\, Brooklyn Academy of Music\, & Lambda Literary; their first chapbook is Estoy Tristeza (No Dear\, 2018). \n\nPhoto credit: right-Andre Uncut; left- Joshua Allen.

SUMMARY:Queer History is Poster History
DESCRIPTION:From posters celebrating pride to promoting nightlife events to even combatting the AIDS crisis\, queer culture is deeply embedded in poster history. Poster House is pleased to partner with Silas Munro and Brian Johnson of Polymode for a deep dive into queer touchpoints within the medium. Explore the iconic contributions the queer community has made to the graphic design cannon and how they continue to shape poster history today. Whether advocating for queer rights or advertising the right to have a good time\, posters and queer history go hand in hand. \nSilas Munro is a partner of Polymode and is particularly interested in the often unaddressed postcolonial relationship between design and marginalized communities. His writing appears in the book\, W. E. B. Du Bois’s Data Portraits: Visualizing Black America published by Princeton Architectural Press. Munro has been a visiting critic at MICA\, RISD\, and Yale\, and is a Founding Faculty and CoChair at the MFA Program in Design at Vermont College of Fine Arts. He holds an MFA from CalArts and a BFA from RISD\, where he met Brian Johnson and began collaborating. \nBrian Johnson is a partner of Polymode where he focuses on creative direction\, design production\, writing\, and teaching. Born into a family of printers\, he is deeply invested in the production of good design without sacrificing our humanity or environment. He is a member of the Monacan Nation and holds a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design. His most recent publication\, Queering the Grid: Reading Codes in Dan Friedman’s Teachings (with Silas Munro) has led him to his current design writing research on Friedman’s 1994 Radical Manifesto\, which will be approaching its thirty year anniversary.  \nThis program is presented by CMYK Council\, Poster House’s working advisory board of BIPOC creatives\, designers\, educators\, and museum staff. \n\n\nThis online event will be hosted on Zoom with attendees cameras off. Closed Captioning will be provided. ASL interpretation is available upon request — please email access@posterhouse.org to request interpretation services. A recording of this event will be made available for all registered attendees. Questions about accessibility? Please contact Salvador Muñoz\, Public Programs Manager\, at salvador@posterhouse.org.

SUMMARY:It Takes a Village: Unsung Women and Their Contributions to Silent Film
DESCRIPTION:In the first two decades of the 20th century\, the nascent silent film industry offered women numerous opportunities to make a significant impact in the field. Mostly marginalized and forgotten over time\, these women contributed heavily to early Hollywood filmmaking\, doing everything from editing to designing\,  producing to directing. While some like Alice Guy-Blaché\, Lois Weber\, and Mary Pickford are well known by cinema buffs\, many unsung pioneers like Clare West\, Elsa Lopez\, and Marion Fairfax still live in obscurity. This lecture will acknowledge these many women’s talents and provide the recognition they deserve. \nFilm historian and writer Mary Mallory is the author of four books and a blogger  on Los Angeles and early film history. She has contributed to the Women Film Pioneers Project\, the San Francisco Silent Film Festival\, and American History magazine. She has lectured at the Niles Essanay Silent Film Museum\, Hollywood Heritage Museum\, and Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at UCLA\, and she currently serves on Hollywood Heritage’s Board of Directors. \n\n\n\n\nThis online event will be hosted on Zoom with attendees cameras off. Closed Captioning will be provided. ASL interpretation is available upon request with two weeks notice — please email Sarit@posterhouse.org to request interpretation services. A recording of this event will be made available for all registered attendees. Questions about accessibility? Please contact Sarit Cahana\, Access Coordinator\, at Sarit@posterhouse.org.
