SUMMARY:Art 101: Mingei/Japanese Ceramics
DESCRIPTION:Know Mingei? If not\, don’t worry—it’s a fascinating part of Japanese art and culture that many people aren’t familiar with. Mingei (民芸) means “folk art” in Japanese. It was a movement that started in the 1920s when a philosopher named Yanagi Sōetsu noticed that everyday handcrafted objects—like pottery\, textiles\, baskets\, and woodwork—had a unique beauty even though they weren’t made by famous artists. Instead of focusing on expensive\, one-of-a-kind pieces\, Mingei celebrates the humble\, functional\, and handmade objects used by ordinary people. Join Craft Collections and Program Specialist Amanda Hiatt and Curatorial Fellow Sade Moore for a classroom-style lecture covering the fundamentals of Mingei art! \nAbout Art 101:  \nThe Art 101 Series is a fun and accessible introduction to the world of art\, designed for anyone curious about creativity\, visual expression\, and art history. These engaging classes break down art movements\, techniques\, and visual literacy in an easy-to-understand way—no prior knowledge required! Whether you’re exploring Renaissance masterpieces\, modern street art\, or traditional folk crafts\, Art 101 makes it all approachable and exciting. Through storytelling\, games\, art making\, and interactive discussions\, you’ll learn to see art in a new way\, understand its deeper meanings\, and even create your own interpretations. Perfect for beginners and art lovers alike\, the Art 101 Series turns art history into an adventure—because art should be fun\, not intimidating!  \nLocation: Ceramics Research Center\, Brickyard Engineering\, 699 S Mill Ave #108\, Tempe\, AZ 85281 \nDate: Sunday\, July 13\, 2025 \nTime: 10 a.m. – Noon  \nRSVP HERE >>>

SUMMARY:2025 fall exhibition opening reception
DESCRIPTION:This fall\, the ASU Art Museum will open two timely exhibitions that explore how we navigate the world. “Tierras Reimaginadas: Migration” reimagines migration as a natural\, spiritual and emotional experience shared across species and generations. Drawing from the museum’s collection\, the exhibition invites reflection on the movement of people\, plants\, animals and ideas as a force that reshapes land\, identity and belonging.“Michelangelo Lovelace: Art Saved My Life” is a retrospective exhibition. Lovelace\, who often spoke about his life and career as an artist through a vivid and layered lens\, chose to paint in an intentionally simplified manner because it allowed him to show what he called “the raw power of life in the inner cities of America.” Together\, these exhibitions provide a thought-provoking exploration of resilience\, community and the various ways art helps us navigate today’s ever-evolving world. \nSaturday\, September 13\, 2025\n5–7 p.m.\nASU Art Museum\n \nRSVP to save your spot! \n

SUMMARY:Language of the Four Directions: East
DESCRIPTION:Join the ASU Art Museum and Chris Hoshnic at a poetry workshop this fall!  \nLanguage of the Four Directions is a multi-site ekphrasis poetry workshop series rooted in Diné philosophy\, exploring how place\, community\, and direction influence creative expression. \nThrough this series\, we will activate the same artwork across five different locations\, engaging with it through writing\, storytelling\, and shared reflection to understand how each “area’s language” uniquely responds to the piece. \nEach workshop will center on a single shared image or artwork\, used as an anchor across time and space. Drawing from Diné’s four directional teachings — East (Ha’a’aah)\, South (Shádi’ááh)\, West (E’e’aah)\, and North (Náhookǫs) — we will consider how landscape\, positionality\, and community shape our interpretation and voice. \nSaturday\, September 14\, 2025\n3–5 p.m.\nASU Art Museum\n \nRSVP to save your spot! \n

Drawing from Diné’s four directional teachings — East (Ha’a’aah)\, South (Shádi’ááh)\, West (E’e’aah) and North (Náhookǫs) — we will consider how landscape\, positionality and community shape our interpretation and voice. \nLocation: ASU West Campus: Labriola Fletcher Library\, Room 305 4701 W Thunderbird Rd\, Glendale\, AZ 85306 \nDate: Sunday\, Jan. 30\, 2026 \nTime: 6–8 p.m. \nRSVP >>>

SUMMARY:A Taste of Melanin: Silent Disco
DESCRIPTION:Get ready to dance through music history! Enjoy all the music that has been influenced by black culture\, presented by the ASUArt Museum and A Taste of Melanin. \n\n\n\n\nBlack culture has shaped the music we listen to today. From gospel and blues set the stage for rock ‘n’ roll\, while jazz has this crazy ability to cross all kinds of borders with its beats. African rhythms mixed with other musical styles gave birth to hip-hop\, R&B\, funk\, and loads more. Black culture’s influence is everywhere in modern tunes—it’s the heart and soul of what we listen to. \n\n\nAt A Taste of Melanin\, we believe that black culture is beautiful\, complex\, and often misunderstood. In today’s media landscape\, the black community is often portrayed in a negative light\, and we want to change that narrative. Our goal is to showcase the rich history\, art\, music\, and traditions of black culture\, and to help people gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of its many facets.  \nRSVP >>>

SUMMARY:Performance by Jennif(f)er Tamayo: ‘mygrunt is a total world\, a prelude’
DESCRIPTION:Join artist-in-residence Jennif(f)er Tamayo for a live sonic performance presented as part of “Tierras Reimaginadas: Migration.” \nIn “mygrunt is a total world\, a prelude\,” Tamayo weaves together field recordings\, voice\, protest sounds\, memory fragments and electronic beats into an immersive soundscape exploring migration\, liberation and queer decolonial listening practices. \nDrawing from interviews with migrant community members\, family and collaborators\, the performance layers breath\, wind\, laughter\, sirens\, bass and celebration. Through repetition and distortion\, these sounds shift and expand\, activating the artworks in the exhibition and creating dialogue between personal memory and collective resistance. \nPart sound collage and part embodied archive\, this live mixing performance invites audiences to experience migration not only as movement across borders but as a shifting sonic landscape shaped by survival and possibility. \nRSVP >>>

India)\, Wanesia Misquadace (Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa\, b. 1971)\, and Agnese Udinotti (United States\, b. Greece 1940). This multigenerational grouping of artists lends itself to a rich conversation about training\, history\, and material concerns. Through diverse alloy-based practices\, the exhibition explores connections between the body\, nature\, labor and regional culture\, revealing metalwork as both an artistic and cultural form of transformation. \n“Wrought by Fire: Metalwork of the Southwest” is organized by Windgate Curatorial Fellow Sade Moore and made possible by generous funding from Windgate Charitable Foundation. This research was supported by a Craft Research Fund Grant from the Center for Craft. The exhibition is presented in collaboration with a Community of Practice composed of Sandra McClain\, metal shop Manager at Phoenix Forge\, Leticia Bejarano\, Local Jeweler and Co-Owner of Weld-Her and Shanen L. Aranmór\, MS\, CWI/CWE\, Chief Wellness Welder for Weld Like A Girl. \n____ \n“Cross Check: William Wegman and Jacob Trouba\,” brings together the distinct practices of artist William Wegman and professional hockey player turned artist Jacob Trouba. “Cross Check: William Wegman and Jacob Trouba” explores movement as a form of artistic production\, translation\, and collaboration. Rooted in the shared language of hockey\, the exhibition examines the body as both subject and medium through a series of collaborative works presented publicly for the first time. Drawing on his experience as an athlete\, Trouba covers himself in ink while wearing hockey gear and propels himself across the canvas\, leaving behind marks that record speed\, force\, and impact. Wegman responds by translating those gestures into paintings that reinterpret the movement at an intimate scale\, creating an ongoing dialogue between action and reflection. Borrowing its title from the hockey maneuver in which a player forcefully checks an opponent with both hands on the stick\, Cross Check reveals how physicality\, play\, and creative exchange transform movement\, whether on the ice or in the studio\, into a powerful form of artistic expression. \n“Cross Check: Jacob Trouba and William Wegman is organized by ASU Art Museum Senior Curator Alana Hernandez and ASU Art Museum Windgate Curatorial Fellow Sade Moore. The exhibition is made possible by generous funding provided by NHL Unites.
