SUMMARY:This Is Not A Map
DESCRIPTION:“This Is Not A Map” brings together eight artists from Carnegie Mellon University’s Master of Fine Arts program. This collection of new works addresses contemporary notions of place\, time\, and storytelling. Hailing from five continents\, all now living and working in Pittsburgh\, the artists are each presenting an installation informed by their diverse studio practices\, utilizing a broad range of mediums\, from textiles and collages to video essays and digital sculpture. Where traditional mapmaking creates rigid understandings of constructs like nationhood\, gender\, and language\, this exhibition offers fluid systems of way-finding between shifting and interlaced worlds. A dance is re-choreographed\, an altar calls the past into the present\, discarded objects find a new sense of value\, and sensory fragments from childhood are restaged. Memory plays a vital role across the works on view\, exploring how a body can chart through space on its own terms. \nArtists:\nIzsys Archer (MFA ‘25)\nNaomi Chambers (MFA ‘26)\nTingting Chen (MFA ‘25)\nChantal Feitosa-Desouza (MFA ‘25)\nFrankmarlin (MFA ‘25)\nBulumko Mbete (MFA ‘26)\nAfrooz Partovi (MFA ‘26)\nMax Tristan Watkins (MFA ‘25) \nExhibition Opening Reception: Feb 10\, 6-8 PM \nThis is not a map is presented by the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust in collaboration with Carnegie Mellon University. Special thanks to MFA Director Katherine Hubbard\, Assistant Director Julie Hakim Azzam\, Head of the School of Art Charlie White\, and the College of Fine Arts at Carnegie Mellon University. Additional thanks to the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust team: Davine Byon\, Tara Fay Coleman\, Jesse Hulcher\, George Dun\, Kennedy Deen\, Josh Rievel\, and Chris Korch.

SUMMARY:Artist Lecture: Al-An deSouza
DESCRIPTION:Al-An deSouza renders photo-media\, installation\, text and performance works as staging grounds for examining historical memory and its legacies upon the present. Their works draw upon institutional and familial archives\, remaking them through strategies of humor\, fabulation\, and (mis)translation. Recent projects\, Through the Black Country… (2017)\, and La Vida del Capitan (2019)\, transpose\, respectively\, Henry Stanley’s 1870s African expedition journals to England during the 2016 Brexit vote\, and Columbus’ 1492 ship diaries to a 2019 expedition from Khalifia (California) to Al-Andalus (Spain). Both texts are accompanied by expedition maps and photographs. deSouza’s work has been shown extensively in the US and internationally\, including at the Johnson Museum\, Ithaca\, NY; Krannert Museum\, IL; Phillips Collection\, Washington\, DC; Pompidou Centre\, Paris\, and the Mori Museum\, Tokyo. deSouza’s two recent books: How Art Can Be Thought (Duke University Press\, 2018)\, examines art pedagogy and critique\, and how some of the most common terms used to discuss art may be adapted to new artistic and social challenges; Ark of Martyrs (Sming Sming Books\, 2020)\, is a polyphonic\, dysphoric replacement of Joseph Conrad’s infamous Heart of Darkness. deSouza is Professor of Art Practice at University of California\, Berkeley\, and is represented by Talwar Gallery\, NY and New Delhi. \nThis lecture is organized by the School of Art’s DEIJ Committee.

SUMMARY:Vox Humana
DESCRIPTION:Vox Humana invites you to a fusion of technology\, art\, and music celebrating the harmony between the ancient and the avant-garde. This event showcases the music of Carnegie Mellon University’s Exploded Ensemble\, architectural video projections from Advanced ETB: Animation Studio: AI Generated Animation\, and performance work from Advanced ETB: Digitally Mediated Performance. \nExploded Ensemble has crafted music for the pipe organ using code and custom software\, breathing digital life into one of music’s oldest instruments. Within the embrace of a beautiful acoustic space\, these compositions are not merely played but experienced\, as they interact with architecturally mapped video projections featuring AI-generated imagery. These visuals are tailored to complement and react to the unique architectural elements of the venue\, creating a dynamic and immersive environment. Performance artists will improvise live\, their movements and expressions influenced by the experimental music and its interplay with the physical space. Together\, these elements promise a mesmerizing exploration of how digital innovation can expand the boundaries of traditional musical performance\, creating a spectacle that is as thought-provoking as it is enchanting. Join us for an evening where the past and the future converge in a symphony of sights and sounds\, offering a glimpse into the limitless possibilities of artistic expression. \nThe Vox Humana team wishes to thank Church of the Ascension and Gary Harger for their generous support in realizing this event. This performance is made by possible by the Carnegie Mellon University IDeATE (Integrative\, Design\, Arts\, and Technology) program\, the CMU School of Art\, and the CMU School of Music.
