Join us in Brooklyn for a public reading on the occasion of Alex Strada’s “Public Address” on Monday, June 8, from 6–7:30 pm. This program takes place inside the project’s main installation at Columbus Park, and is in partnership with the Brooklyn Public Library.

Guest readers are artist Pablo Helguera, community organizer and educator Rob Robinson, Arash Diba of @vocalnewyork, advocate Maria Ponce Sevilla, author Samuel Stein, scholar Alexandra Délano Alonso, Eva Raison, Director of Brooklyn Public Library's Outreach Services, and architect Nandini Bagchee. The readings will be accompanied by an artist-led walkthrough of the installation.

The artworks in Public Address—handwritten and drawn accounts printed as aluminum city street signs—were created by people living and working within New York City's shelter system through log writing workshops. Written to be encountered and responded to, these anonymous entries are addressed to the NYC public, inviting reflection and collective attention.

☀️It’s perfect weather for a visit to Alex Strada’s installation in Brooklyn’s Columbus Park, which is on view through the summer.

Whether you’re getting off the subway, are on a lunch break, reside in the area or are just passing through, stop and read notes, drawings, and other forms of testimony by those impacted by the city’s ongoing homelessness crisis. By embedding testimony within the visual and spatial codes of the city, the project amplifies voices too often excluded from public discourse while foregrounding ways in which civic infrastructures can be reimagined as platforms for listening.

For those currently in Venice for the Biennale, visit “Hard Teeth” the just-opened Kosovo Pavilion curated by @josesparza, our Executive Director and Chief Curator!

Kosovar artist @brilant.milazimi composes a painting installation in the newly re-opened Chiesa di Santa Maria del Pianto, with an architectural structure designed by @lanzaatelier. Across the curved horizon, Milazimi shows long lines of sinuous and ghostly figures winding through the landscape. These works point Kosovo’s longstanding concerns of displacement, stagnation, and autonomy.

Tuesday, May 26, at 6:30 pm, urbanist and researcher Garine Boghossian presents “An Armenian Atlas / Աշխարհացոյց” an ongoing counter-mapping project that centers houshamadyans, memory books produced by Armenian Genocide survivors across diasporic centers, from Aleppo to Los Angeles.

Houshamadyans often include mental maps drawn from memory and lived spatial knowledge of the homelands from which Armenians and other minoritized communities were ethnically cleansed. Boghossian, herself a third-generation survivor, overlays these mental maps onto contemporary satellite imagery, alongside personal and archival photography. Through this work, she documents Indigenous dispossession, challenges the systematic erasure central to ongoing state-led genocide denial, and recovers lost spatial histories that gesture toward reparative futures.

Following the presentation, Boghossian will be joined in conversation by Lara Fresko Madra, Assistant Professor and Luma Fellow at Bard College’s Center for Curatorial Studies.

Next week:
🔥 4/28, 6:30–8 pm: Monstrous, Malodorous, Otherworldly: Listening Session with Mhoze Chikowero, Shana L. Redmond, and Zoé Samudzi (@babywasu) (*Limited Capacity)
Explore sonic archives and radical alternate imaginaries through vinyl, audio recordings, and soundscapes. The evening will open with a guided introduction before giving way to a call-and-response exchange between the hosts, who each bring distinct practices rooted in sound, memory, and speculative world-making. Part conversation, part back-to-back set, the session invites audiences into an intimate encounter with the otherworldly frequencies embedded in archival and experimental sound.
