SUMMARY:Les Indes Galantes
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition “Clément Cogitore: Les Indes Galantes” is on display at The Joslyn from Sept. 10 through Feb. 23\, 2025. Working at the intersection of cinema\, photography\, and installation\, Clément Cogitore examines ritual\, collective memory\, and notions of the sacred. “Les Indes Galantes: takes its title and music from a 1735 opera-ballet by French composer Jean-Philippe Rameau. The fourth and final section of the opera is inspired by a meeting in 1725 between six Native American tribal chiefs and King Louis XV\, during which the chiefs performed several traditional dances. Cogitore pairs Rameau’s dramatic Baroque soundtrack with a style of dance born in Los Angeles in the early 1990s known as K.R.U.M.P. Spanning ages\, races\, and ethnicities\, Cogitore’s dancers gather in a circle on a sparsely-lit stage to engage in a “battle\,” a common K.R.U.M.P performance format. The filmmaker captures this scene from multiple vantage points—distant observer\, audience member\, performer—to immerse viewers in this tight-knit dance community. \n

SUMMARY:Appliqué Sur Le Terrain
DESCRIPTION:In the installation “Appliqué sur le terrain\,” Henry Payer views the cultural landscape of present-day Nebraska through the vibrant lens of Indigenous ribbonwork appliqué. The installation is on view through Sept. 4\, 2025.  \n “Appliqué sur le terrain” involves sewing layers of silk ribbons\, cotton\, wool\, and glass beads to make regalia for special occasions. The distinctive symmetrical patterns reflect kinship\, ecological knowledge\, and oral histories of various Indigenous communities.  \nInspired by The Joslyn’s collection of Karl Bodmer watercolors\, Payer created eight appliqué collages that layer Missouri River landscapes\, calico fabric\, and texts about the colonization of the region. He hand-stitched the designs in the Ho-Chunk appliqué style\, called zeenįba hirarucak. Each floral and geometric pattern references historical examples created by Umónhon\, Ponca\, Ho-Chunk\, Pawnee\, Ioway\, and Otoe-Missouria women\, honoring the legacy of artists whose names were not documented. As part of this collaborative project\, contemporary artists have generously shared their appliqué stories and regalia. \nNote: The museum is open until 8 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursdays.

SUMMARY:Abraham Lincoln: President\, Emancipator\, Corporate Pitchman
DESCRIPTION:“Abraham Lincoln: President\, Emancipator\, Corporate Pitchman” is on display at The Durham Museum Jan. 20 through April 27.  The exhibit offers an innovative and immersive multi-sensory exploration of one of America’s most iconic figures. Through tactile displays and detailed imagery\, the exhibition sheds light on Lincoln’s multifaceted roles – as a president who led the United States through the Civil War\, an emancipator who took pivotal steps toward abolishing slavery and a corporate figure who\, posthumously\, became a symbol in modern advertising. \nVisitors are invited to engage with Lincoln’s legacy in ways that appeal to both the senses and the intellect\, with tactile images enhancing the experience for all audiences\, including those who are blind or visually impaired. By merging history with contemporary cultural analysis\, the exhibition encourages a critical look at how Lincoln’s image has been appropriated and commercialized over time. \nExhibit is included with admission.

SUMMARY:Les Indes Galantes
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition “Clément Cogitore: Les Indes Galantes” is on display at The Joslyn from Sept. 10 through Feb. 23\, 2025. Working at the intersection of cinema\, photography\, and installation\, Clément Cogitore examines ritual\, collective memory\, and notions of the sacred. “Les Indes Galantes: takes its title and music from a 1735 opera-ballet by French composer Jean-Philippe Rameau. The fourth and final section of the opera is inspired by a meeting in 1725 between six Native American tribal chiefs and King Louis XV\, during which the chiefs performed several traditional dances. Cogitore pairs Rameau’s dramatic Baroque soundtrack with a style of dance born in Los Angeles in the early 1990s known as K.R.U.M.P. Spanning ages\, races\, and ethnicities\, Cogitore’s dancers gather in a circle on a sparsely-lit stage to engage in a “battle\,” a common K.R.U.M.P performance format. The filmmaker captures this scene from multiple vantage points—distant observer\, audience member\, performer—to immerse viewers in this tight-knit dance community. \n

SUMMARY:Appliqué Sur Le Terrain
DESCRIPTION:In the installation “Appliqué sur le terrain\,” Henry Payer views the cultural landscape of present-day Nebraska through the vibrant lens of Indigenous ribbonwork appliqué. The installation is on view through Sept. 4\, 2025.  \n “Appliqué sur le terrain” involves sewing layers of silk ribbons\, cotton\, wool\, and glass beads to make regalia for special occasions. The distinctive symmetrical patterns reflect kinship\, ecological knowledge\, and oral histories of various Indigenous communities.  \nInspired by The Joslyn’s collection of Karl Bodmer watercolors\, Payer created eight appliqué collages that layer Missouri River landscapes\, calico fabric\, and texts about the colonization of the region. He hand-stitched the designs in the Ho-Chunk appliqué style\, called zeenįba hirarucak. Each floral and geometric pattern references historical examples created by Umónhon\, Ponca\, Ho-Chunk\, Pawnee\, Ioway\, and Otoe-Missouria women\, honoring the legacy of artists whose names were not documented. As part of this collaborative project\, contemporary artists have generously shared their appliqué stories and regalia. \nNote: The museum is open until 8 p.m. on Wednesday and Thursdays.
