SUMMARY:Landscapes of Decline in 1980s Hollywood
DESCRIPTION:Professor Mike Dwyer of Arcadia University will discuss his new book\, Tinsel and Rust: How Hollywood Manufactured the Rust Belt. \nWhat is the Rust Belt? This seemingly simple question is surprisingly difficult to answer. In response to the difficulty that scholars and commentators alike have faced in defining the term (is it a place? a historical period? an economic condition?)\, this presentation redirects our attention toward the ongoing cultural production of the idea of the Rust Belt through popular film and media. \nBorrowing the concept of “landscape” from cultural geographers like Don Mitchell\, Dwyer analyzes the way that Hollywood film in the 1980s trained Americans to see smokestacks and factories as symbols of inescapable toxicity and decay\, rather than sites of ongoing struggle and negotiation involving actual human beings. \n

SUMMARY:Yoav Horesh: The Village
DESCRIPTION:The Schiltkamp Gallery is proud to display 30 black and white photographs by Yoav Horesh\, a Maine-based photographer and arts educator who has intimately documented his new home in Kittery. Named Admiralty Village\, it is a unique place — it was originally home to Portsmouth Navy Yard workers in the 1940s. The neighborhood was established to support a flourishing maritime endeavor during wartime. Today\, with 225 double units and 150 single-family homes\, some of its residents are still part of the Naval industry in Kittery\, though many units were sold to small families and individuals who make up the contemporary fabric of a humble community on the Maine Seacoast.

Guests are encouraged to arrive at 11:45 a.m. for refreshments. \nThis event is sponsored by the Alice Coonley Higgins Institute for Arts and Humanities and the Department of English at Clark University. \n\nAbout the Speaker \n \nMandy Gutmann-Gonzalez is a Chilean poet and novelist working at the intersections of text\, image\, archive\, and translation. They are the author of La Pava (Ediciones Inubicalistas) and A/An (End of the Line Press). Their work has been supported by fellowships and residencies from The Bucknell Seminar for Younger Poets\, Lambda Literary\, The Center for Book Arts\, TAKT Residency in Berlin\, The Frost Place\, Studios at MASS MoCA\, the Alice Coonley Higgins Institute for Arts and Humanities\, and MacDowell. They teach creative writing at Clark University. \n  \nAbout the Book \nUsing 17th-century court records of the Salem Witch Trials as a sounding board\, A/An mines the archives to uncover the power and violence residing within the language of the legal system. As state-legislated violence\, witch hunts were constitutive to the colonial order\, reinforcing what was normal and what was aberrant. Rather than regarding the witch hunts as historical curiosity or speculating to fill the gaps\, A/An considers the court examination as poetic form\, a hybrid of legal language and lyric utterance. In these poems\, English becomes foreign to itself\, having distorted through time and slipped through the sieve of law\, through the inevitable erasures of matter and the ideological erasures of the archive: the gaps marked “[illegible due to fold in paper]\,” and the silences that remain unmarked. In a poetics of the “[…]”\, A/An engages with textual gaps as lacunae. In A/An\, poetry and archive wrestle\, shattering these legal documents that act as gravestones and spilling the voices caught therein.
