SUMMARY:Music for Healing
DESCRIPTION:Culture Lab LIC is proud to announce the debut of Music for Healing\, by multidisciplinary artist\, Angelica Olstad. Music for Healing is an immersive installation that combines the power of music with science-backed healing modalities. The project – backed by a $10\,000 NYSCA grant – explores new ways to connect through a set of different modalities and practices that explores the installation space as an opportunity to connect through a shared experience.  \n  \n"At Culture Lab LIC\, we believe in the power of art to inspire\, heal\, and unite communities\," said Artistic Director\, Tess Howsam. "With Music for Healing we are thrilled to provide a platform for exploring innovative approaches to wellness that are grounded in scientific research and accessible to all." \n  \nMusic for Healing will be featured as part of the Culture Lab LIC’s forthcoming exhibition\, “Shattered” which focuses on mental health. “The show aims to not only raise awareness for mental health issues but the importance of art as both a healing tool and outlet\,” said Dawn DeVito\, curator of Shattered. \nScheduled to run from May 2nd to June 2\, 2024\, Music for Healing is a unique collaboration between leading scientists\, musicians\, creative technologists\, and artists. Through a blend of soothing audiovisual displays\, filmed content showing people from the community meditating and dancing\, color therapy\, multichannel sound\, and guided audio meditations\, attendees will delve into the transformative potential of sound and music in promoting physical\, mental\, and emotional well-being. Also featured as part of the experience\, is the use of an EEG – an instrument for measuring brain activity in visitors. Once activated\, the EEG will impact the installation environment to create a tailored experience based on each unique visitor’s brain chemistry. This interactivity incentivizes participants to go deeper into the experience. \n  \nThe immersive soundscape that comprises the exhibition was written by Angelica Olstad with the intention of creating healing experiences for visitors. “I wanted to challenge the idea that music for healing needs to sound like you’re in a spa\,” says Olstad. “So I set to work with scientists to figure out the ideal beats per minute (BPM) and other musical characteristics needed to put visitors in a relaxed and healing state.” The resulting fifty-five minute composition is minimalist and introspective\, featuring piano and analog synths. The instrumental piece will be released as a companion piece to the installation as its own album titled\, “Music for Healing: Introspection” which will be available to stream on May 24th. \n  \nOlstad’s music was described as The Wire as\, “Openly appreciative of the constituents of a tradition whil at the same time calling fundamental assumptions into question”. Her musical style is minimalist in nature and often includes unconventional mediums including field recordings\, video art\, analog synths\, and soundscapes.  \n  \n“Music for Healing addresses increased feelings of isolation and loneliness in a post-Covid world\,” said artist Angelica Olstad. “This project is a culmination of my experiences as a community wellness teacher\, classically trained pianist\, and cultural producer. As a mixed-race artist\, I am committed to making wellness and arts experiences more accessible to a wider audience\, specifically\, BIPOC audiences who might not have access to traditional arts and wellness opportunities. My dream is for people to come to this space\, find a comforting place to heal and to want to come back to over and over again..” \n  \nThe artist partnered with a team of highly talented individuals and organizations from Donald Judd inspired pieces\, production at 100 Sutton Studios an Samples from Mars\, movement work by director Elena Vazintaris who’s worked with the likes of Chanel and Dior\, an sponsored by Arts Equity Group. Full credits list can be viewed HERE.  \n  \nIn partnership with Culture Lab LIC\, Music for Healing will also feature community programming through lectures\, live outdoor concerts\, free meditation and yoga classes accompanied by music and educational talks for schools. Programming will be designed with underserved populations in mind. Music for Healing invites visitors of all ages and backgrounds to explore\, engage\, and experience the transformative power of music in a welcoming and inclusive environment.  \n  \nMusic for Healing is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.   \n  \nFor more information on open hours and event information\, please visit Culture Lab LIC at https://www.culturelablic.org \n

SUMMARY:Take Root Presents: Tina Croll + Company & Ani Jav
DESCRIPTION:May 10th & 11th at 8pmAdvance sale tickets: $20 online\nTickets purchased at door: $25 cash or card \nAbout the Works:\nTina Croll + Company\nAncient Springs is inspired by Federico Fellini’s La Strada and poet Kathleen Raine’s Defending Ancient Springs.  Comprised of vignettes— “short stories”— this piece examines abstract and non-narrative methods of storytelling through movement and sound\, a little gavotte\, a twisted convulsive solo\, a stately waltz on some town square.  A chorus of dancers swirls through – sometimes joining in\, sometimes commenting on the action. The music is from various sources including – Tiny Tim\, Glen Velez\, Andy Teirstein\, traditional music from Macedonia\, Getatchew Mekuria\, Lila Downs & Mariachi Juvenil de Tecalitián \nInspired by the Sanskrit saying: ”Sanghe Shakti Kalau Yuge” (In this Dark Age Strength is in Unity.)  Full of intricate spatial patterns and rhythmic contrasts\, the work combines the choreographer’s ongoing interest in Eastern European/Asian folkdance forms.  Some ancient folk dances for women are danced in sublime unison. “She Rides a Tiger” refers to the Hindu goddess Durga\, "The Invincible."  She is the warrior goddess depicted in the Hindu pantheon riding a tiger\, with many arms\, each carrying a weapon. Sensuous and beautiful\, but the fierce form of the protective mother. \nAni Javian and Benjamin Roach\nWhat are our stories and how did they come to be? When The Sky Separated From The Earth asks questions around fantasy and reality\, deception and truth\, and duplicity and multiplicity. When The Sky is a playground\, gym\, town plaza\, church\, bedroom\, stage\, and home. It is loud and out-of-bounds; it is against the rules; it is not exactly true\, but it isn’t exactly false\, either. And it asks\, “How can we trust – in ourselves\, in others\, and in our world?” It works to reveal our humanity – full of faults\, but always with the capacity to listen to our own unique truths and the truths of those around us with compassion\, goodwill\, and heart.

SUMMARY:Tolia Astakhishvili and Kirsty Bell
DESCRIPTION:Writer Kirsty Bell joins artist Tolia Astakhisvhili in conversation on the first weekend of Tolia Astakhishvili: between father and mother\, Tolia’s exhibition at SculptureCenter. \nIn recent years\, Kirsty Bell has been an observer of and participant in Tolia’s work. Her texts have appeared alongside or within Tolia’s recent exhibitions at Bonner Kunstverein and Haus am Waldsee\, Berlin. \nBell’s recent book projects include the indispensable The Artist’s House: From Workplace to Artwork (Sternberg Press\, 2013)\, a wide-ranging inquiry into interrelations of living- and working-spaces that have inflected art practices as diverse as those of Gregor Schneider\, Marc Camille Chaimowicz\, and Alice Neel\, among many others; and Undercurrents: A Story of Berlin (Other Press\, 2022)\, a geographical\, political\, cultural\, and personal history of the city that unfolds across passages of localized attention and elastic historical breadth\, told in parallel to Bell’s coming and going from her own home on the Landwehr Canal. \nThis meeting dips into Tolia’s and Bell’s shared attunement to the resonance (the “shadow existence\,” as Bell has written of Tolia’s work) of buildings\, homes\, and cities. \nKirsty Bell is a British-American writer and art critic living in Berlin. She has published widely in magazines and journals including Tate Etc. and Art in America\, and was a contributing editor of frieze from 2011-2021. She was awarded a Warhol Foundation Grant for her book The Artist’s House\, and her essays have appeared in over seventy exhibition catalogs for major international museums and institutions such as the Whitney Museum of American Art\, New York; Stedelijk Museum\, Amsterdam; and Tate\, London. \nTolia Astakhishvili works and lives in Berlin and Tbilisi. Astakhishvili's recent solo exhibitions include The First Finger (chapter II)\, Haus am Waldsee\, Berlin (2023); The First Finger\, Bonner Kunstverein\, Bonn (2023); I Think It's Closed\, Bielefelder Kunstverein\, Bielefeld (2023). Her work has been included in exhibitions at Emalin\, London (2024); Sweetwater\, Berlin (2024); Kunsthalle Zürich (2023); Molitor Gallery\, Berlin (2023); LC Queisser\, Tbilisi (2023); Shahin Zarinbal\, Berlin (2022); Felix Gaudlitz\, Vienna (2022); LC Queisser\, Tbilisi (2022); Art Hub Copenhagen\, Copenhagen (2021); Räume für Kunst\, Kerpen (2021); Bonner Kunstverein\, Bonn (2021); Capitain Petzel Galerie\, Berlin (2021); Goethe Institute Bulgaria / Earth and Man National Museum\, Sofia (2019); Malmö Konsthall\, Malmö (2019); Cabinet\, London (2018).
