Guido A. Sanchez launches "Queer Mythology" | Lofty Pigeon Books, Church Avenue, Brooklyn, NY, USA
Oct 6, 2024 (UTC-5)ENDED
Bro
Join author Guido A. Sanchez for a reading, Q&A, and signing in celebration of this beautiful illustrated book that offers fresh retellings, paired with beautiful illustrations, to give new life and celebrate the inspirational and resilient LGBTQIA+ community in some of humanity’s earliest tales.Preorder your copy! About the bookMyths and legends tell our stories. They connect us and show us not only who we are, but also reflect the people during the time the stories were first told. And LGBTQIA+ people have been a part of every community since the dawn of storytelling.From Tu’er Shen, the Chinese rabbit god who protected those yearning to come out in an unaccepting world, to Ghede Nibo, the Haitian spirit who performed drag in the realm of the dead, the twenty myths told in this collection capture one irrefutable fact—even as labels, language, and definitions have changed, LGBTQIA+ people have always existed. Some of these myths are not widely known. Others are myths that you may think you know, but over time their inherent queerness has been erased. Spanning the globe and thousands of years, Queer Mythology highlights the legends and tales of LGBTQIA+ gods, heroes, spirits and more. Advance praise for Queer Mythology “Sanchez’s brings to light a never-ending human connection across cultures of the world.” —Booklist “Fascinating and validating, these mythological heroes are highlighted with great care and exquisite art.” —Sara Farizan, award-winning author of If You Could Be Mine and Dead Flip “Guido A. Sanchez has created a lovely collection of inclusive and affirming myths from around the world that show that queer folks have always been here, and we have always been heroes.” —Carrie Harris, author of Xavier's Institute: Liberty & Justice for All About the authorGuido A. Sanchez is a writer, middle school teacher and leader, comics aficionado, and podcaster based in New York. Guido revels in nurturing young people along their journeys as they begin to tell the myths of their own lives. Once the school day wraps up, he also steps into the role of cohost and creator of Dear Watchers: The Omniversal Comic Book Podcast. With his vast collection of over 30,000 comics, he navigates the intricacies, inspirations, and impacts of world-building in fictional reality and the modern myths we all love.

VALS Visiting Artist Lecture Series | Dock 72
Oct 8, 2024 (UTC-5)ENDED
Bro
The Pratt Fine Arts Visiting Artist Lecture Series (VALS) is back! Join us at Dock 72 in the Brooklyn Navy Yard for an inspiring evening. Hosted by our Fine Arts MFA program, VALS is one of several free and open-to-the-public events we offer each year. Follow us on Instagram @prattfineart to see what’s coming up, and we look forward to welcoming you soon! Our first VALS of the season features Flaviu Cacoveanu, whose artistic discourse simultaneously embraces – from a performative perspective – language, photography, installation, ready-made objects, or sculptures, and it mainly occurs at a point where these media intertwine. His profoundly intuitive process is sensitive to the interplay between the elements and materials he carefully selects. The artworks are born within his cell phone – which has in the meantime become not only a living space or an extension of reality but outright the artist’s studio – in the shape of sketches or short story-type videos, advancing slices of reality which, taken out of the context, are endowed with new meanings. Therefore, his works are brought to the attention of the public as “notifications” inviting viewers to do a double take and look more closely at the details, which reveal the poetry inherent in the everyday. Through seemingly nonchalant, yet sharp and humorous observations he highlights traces left by unnoticed inhabitants of the city, often insects, discarded items of consumption and various random acts which all compile a portrait of the artist as a reflection of his environment. Flaviu Cacoveanu, born 1989 in Cluj, Romania, lives and works in Berlin, Germany. His works have been exhibited amongst others at Parliament Gallery in Paris (FR), Lutnita Gallery in Chisinau (MD), Liste Art Fair 2024 in Basel (CH), Baronian Gallery in Brussels (BE), NADA Villa Warsaw in Warsaw (PL), Art Brussels 2023 in Brussels (BE), Art Au Centre 2023 in Liege (BE), ART-O-RAMA 2022 in Marseille (FR), The National Museum of Contemporary Art in Bucharest (RO) and at the Art Encounters Biennial 2021 in Timisoara (RO). Previous VALS artists include Diana Al-Hadid, Korakrit Arunanondchai, Judith Bernstein, Michael Berryhill, Wafaa Bilal, The Black School, Pradeep Dalal, Abigail D. Deville, Nicole Eisenman, Rochelle Feinstein, Keltie Ferris, LaToya Ruby Frazier, Schezerade Garcia, Rico Gatson, Jeffrey Gibson, Mark Thomas Gibson, Nancy Grossman, Trenton Doyle Hancock, Edgar Heap of Birds, James Hyde, Laura Kalman, Nina Katchadourian, Elektra KB, Baseera Khan, Savannah Knoop, Leigh Ledare, Jennie Jieun Lee, Ann Lewis, Tau Lewis, Kalup Linzey, Ibrahim Mahama, Park McArthur, Alicia Mersy, Wardell Milan, Ayanah Moor, Lavar Munroe, Narcissister, Rashaad Newsome, Catherine Opie, Amanda Phingbodhipakkiya, Alexis Rockman, Aura Satz, Shazia Sikander, Lorna Simpson, Wendy Red Star, Dan Walsh, Hu Xiangqian, and Frank Wang Yefen.

VanderMeer will be joined on-stage by Emily St. John Mandel (Station Eleven) for in-depth conversation on the world of Area X, followed by an audience Q&A and signing.
