Lecture Title: Collectivity as Practice

Lecture Description: Related Tactics (Michele Carlson, Weston Teruya, and Nate Watson) will discuss our work together as a collaborative unit, a platform that allows us to disrupt the idea of a singular artist voice wherever possible—challenging the radical individualism embedded in the art world and our lives—particularly as we engage with issues requiring a multiplicity of perspectives to build collective analysis and power. While the core of our work is a creative collaboration between the three leads, we often utilize curatorial approaches as artistic gestures to construct space for collective voice, address the impacts of systemic white supremacy, and foster mutual support and transformation.

About Collective: Related Tactics is an artistic collaboration between artists and cultural workers Michele Carlson, Weston Teruya, and Nathan Watson. Formed in 2015, our projects are made at the intersection of race and culture. We explore the connections between art, movements for social justice, and the public through trans-disciplinary exchanges, collective making, and dialog. Related Tactics has exhibited at Wexner Center for the Arts, University of San Francisco Thacher Gallery, Southern Exposure, The Luminary, and Center for Craft; and supported through Kala Art Institute’s Print Public, Montalvo Arts Center, Craft Research Fund, San Francisco Arts Commission, and Ruth Foundation for the Arts.

Join us for an engaging and interactive experience in conjunction with art exhibition, Spirituality, Kinship, and the Human Condition: Work’s by Carole A. Pavlo  @ VPA Complex, build. 70.

Lecture description: In this period that can aptly be described as a time of crisis on multiple fronts—environmental, geo-political, and a global pandemic—it is evident that the fallout continues to disproportionately affect the most marginalized and vulnerable populations. In a time of great inequality, unrest, and division, we need to ask, what are the resources, knowledge, and skills needed to improve the quality of our communities and to forge bonds of kinship across our differences in the service of social justice in the real world? Esteemed CSUMB Founding Faculty member Dr. Josina Makau will share her insights, developed over decades of study on dialogue, cooperative argumentation, deliberation, decision making, and ethical and effective communication, in response to these pressing questions. At heart of this presentation and discussion will be key social justice concerns: How to give voice, how to be seen, how to be heard, and how to be understood.

About Dr. Josina Makau:

Josina M. Makau received an MA in Philosophy from UCLA, and an MA and PhD in Rhetoric from UC Berkeley. Following fifteen years on the faculty at Ohio State University, she was selected to help found CSUMB.  During her tenure at the university,  Dr.  Makau served as the dean of arts and humanities, director of the Human Communication Division, and coordinator of  the university’s Practical and Professional Ethics Program.  Her local and regional community service  have included participation in media literacy projects, partnerships in bioethics, peace work,  moral education efforts, and service as Vice President of the PG Pops Orchestra Board of Directors. Nationally, Dr. Makau's record includes extensive service on editorial boards and academic review initiatives. She has served in a number of leadership roles within the Academy as well, including as Chair of the National Communication Ethics Commission and editor of Ethica, among others.

Art Review | Wall Street Journal featuring VPA Associate Professor Dionicio Mendoza

By Peter PlagensNov. 5, 2022 7:00 am ET

“...some gems. Among them are “Extraño 9” (2020), an easily elegant combination of hanging rope and flax, by Tanya Aguiñiga (b. 1978); “Naufragios” (2022), a big, hilariously tragic painting of the European “discovery” of America, by the septuagenarian Raul Guerrero; and my personal favorite—a truly witty work—“Coyota” (2020), a huge folkily surrealist wall-relief portrayal of the animal by Hector Dionicio Mendoza (b. 1969).”

Yo Soy Chinatown, Salinas | I am Chinatown, Salinas

Exhibit & Public Art Installation

Yo Soy/I Am Chinatown, Salinas engages the power of community through histories, storytelling, and first-hand accounts of Chinatown as home, cultural landmark, and complex socio-cultural microcosm. This exhibition is part of a two-year-long community public art and exhibition project in partnership with the Visual and Public Art Dept. at CSUMB and made possible in part by a grant from The Creative Work Fund, a program of the Walter and Elise Haas Fund that is also generously supported by The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation.

Yo Soy/ I Am Chinatown, Salinas features a series of daguerreotype portraits that bring us face-to-face with the socio-cultural concerns, histories, and stories of Chinatown. Binh Danh’s new body of work includes a public art installation, collaborative community engagement, and an art exhibition that displays a complex 19th Century photographic process as a tool for empowerment and a medium for examining socio-cultural and political issues that affect marginalized communities. Danh’s work explores the historical context of Chinatown, Salinas through community-sensitive work that employs first-hand perspectives to identify the complexities of revitalization and cultural preservation efforts alongside issues of racial disparities, exclusionary ordinances, and the criminalization of neighborhoods, communities, and public space.

EXHIBIT ON VIEW: OCTOBER 3 – NOVEMBER 18, 2022

PUBLIC ARTWORKS ON VIEW: OCTOBER 1, 2022-MAY 30, 2023
