More information on GODDESSES 3.0 can be found here! \nABSTRACT \n\n\nKairos\, Occasio\, and Fortuna are complex facets of the same goddess of luck\, but at a certain moment in time a troubling\, schizophrenic iconography came into being\, which cast Lady Luck as a distinctively female force\, both a capricious agent controlling the Wheel of Fortune and also as a body that could be either violently seized or wildly adored. This lecture will explore the uneasy gendering of Fortuna in some early modern images such as an engraving by Marcantonio Raimondi in the Metropolitan Museum that bears the descriptive title A Naked Man Holding Fortune by the Hair and Whipping Her. Rather than simply cancelling an image as such\, I would like to take the opportunity to reflect upon the ideological work that such artworks accomplished in their own time and to push us to think about how we can and must make sense of them as twenty-first-century viewers.\n\n\nABOUT THE SPEAKER \nMaria H. Loh is Professor of Art History at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. Previously\, she taught at CUNY Hunter College for six years and at University College London for over a decade. She is a contributor to Art in America and the author of three books—Titian Remade. Repetition and the Transformation of Early Modern Italian Art (2007); Still Lives. Death\, Desire\, and the Portrait of the Old Master (2015); and Titian’s Touch. Art\, Magic\, & Philosophy (2019). She has also written on: horror and “special affect” in early modern painting and sculpture; rainbow imagery in Stuart England; melancholia and the Renaissance in Ottocento Italy; remakes in Chinese cinema; repetition in Hitchcock’s Vertigo; seriality and Sherrie Levine; and the “open work” of Jeff Wall. Her forthcoming book—Liquid Sky—will be written for a general audience.  \nImage: Maria Loh\, courtesy of the Institute for Advanced Study.

A continuous relay of projected slides comprises an iconography of Goddess symbols\, taboo and sacred\, including images of animal attributes. Schneemann reacts spontaneously to the questions; she channels cogent answers triggered by the unpredictable images and finds herself physically activated\, turning into a howling wolf or crawling across the projection area\, squealing like a pig. (Description via Electronic Arts Intermix). \nFollowing the screening\, there will be a panel discussion featuring Rachel Churner\, director of the Carolee Schneemann Foundation\, and Donna Kessinger\, co-curator of GODDESSES 3.0 and feminist video artist. \nLocation TBA \nImage: Carolee Schneemann\, Ask the Goddess\, 1991.

It all started through a Facebook post. Sierra posted that she wanted to have a girl band named Dick Pinchers\, she tagged Laura V Ward of Octavia Cup Dance Theatre and the Glam Rock Cabaret\, and Alison Babalon of Beautiful Bastards and Oblivion Grin\, suggesting that they might be a good fit. Miraculously\, the trio formed. The raucous Dinner Party-esque band has become a sanity oasis for all three. Themes careen and intersect with swamp witchery\, hot flashes\, maniacal misbehavior\, and Goddess invocation. Alison’s virtuosic bass work anchors Sierra’s heavy-hitting drums and Laura’s minimalist guitar (or violin). Vocals range from primal screams to somewhat more melodic singing\, often within the same song. This IS your grandmother’s punk rock band. \nVia O+ Festival.
