Announcements
Allan Rohan Crite: Neighborhood features 65 paintings and works on paper, exploring themes meaningful to the artist: neighborhood, community and religion. Over a career spanning eight decades, Crite documented the multicultural, multiracial and multigenerational communities of Boston, as well as historic social and economic changes that transformed the nation in the latter half of the 20th century. The artist created a rich visual record of Black life in 20th-century urban America, revealing a sense of community that resonates across time and place.
Over the past couple of years, administrators and staff of the Zimmerli Art Museum at Rutgers University-New Brunswick have made it their mission to transform the facility into a bilingual space – and extend a welcoming hand to New Brunswick’s Hispanic and Latino community.
The Zimmerli’s first exhibition dedicated to Armenian nonconformist art from the Dodge collection features nearly 60 artworks by more than 30 artists who captured the ideological, stylistic and aesthetic diversity of Armenian nonconformism from the 1960s to 1990.
Artist Bently Spang (Enrolled Member of the Tsitsistas/Suhtai Nation) brings the latest iteration of his groundbreaking Tekcno Powwow Jr.²: To the Second Power to the Zimmerli on Sunday, Oct. 12. The event is part of the museum’s dynamic fall schedule, featuring more than 30 free public programs.
Con el fin de hacer del Zimmerli una institución bilingüe y reducir las barreras idiomáticas, el personal del museo se ha encargado de que se traduzcan las etiquetas, los carteles y otros materiales escritos de las galerías de todo el museo, además de organizar las populares celebraciones de Último Domingo y el Día de los Muertos, y de ofrecer el programa de extensión comunitaria Zimmerli Mobile en los barrios de New Brunswick.
