Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

She explores how domestic spaces are structured to mirror the psyche.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

a conceptual conflation of civility with politeness, manners, and respectability. My ongoing project works to disentangle civility from the moral ideals nearest to it. I distinguish a merely conversational (and I think mistakenly emphasized) sense of civility, understood as constraints on manner and mode, from a fuller sense involving reciprocal acknowledgment of one\u0027s fellow citizens\u0027 standing. Drawing on Stephen Darwall\u0027s distinction between recognition and appraisal respect, I argue that civility does not require appraisal respect: it demands no positive evaluation of others\u0027 beliefs, projects, or characters. What it does express is recognition respect, the acknowledgment of others as agents whose standing constrains how we may treat them. The distinction has practical stakes, and it locates forfeiture precisely. Those who systematically deny others\u0027 equal standing may forfeit the conversational benefit of the doubt owed among cooperating citizens without thereby forfeiting recognition respect. Acts condemned as uncivil, including derision aimed at such a target, can withhold appraisal respect while remaining consistent with recognition respect, and so with the reciprocal civic constructiveness democratic equals owe one another.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Chr class=\u0022copy-divider\u0022\u003E\u003Ch4\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAbout the speaker\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/h4\u003E\u003Cblockquote style=\u0022-webkit-text-stroke-width:0px;caret-color:rgb(0, 0, 0);color:rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:Arial;font-style:normal;font-variant-caps:normal;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:normal;orphans:2;text-align:start;text-decoration-line:none;text-decoration-style:solid;text-decoration-thickness:auto;text-indent:0px;text-transform:none;white-space:normal;widows:2;word-spacing:0px;\u0022 type=\u0022cite\u0022\u003E\u003Cdiv\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cimg class=\u0022img-fluid\u0022 src=\u0022\/sites\/g\/files\/litvpz3506\/files\/inline-images\/AR.jpeg\u0022 data-entity-uuid=\u002288246388-e510-462b-b60b-e2888f71f60a\u0022 data-entity-type=\u0022file\u0022 alt=\u0022Alex Richardson\u0022 width=\u0022400\u0022 height=\u0022400\u0022 loading=\u0022lazy\u0022\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cdiv\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAlex Richardson \u003C\/strong\u003Eis associate director for content strategy and engagement at the Prindle Institute for Ethics and assistant professor in philosophy at DePauw University in Indiana.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Having grown up in a family that renovates houses, there is a continued fascination with observing their interiors and how people within inhabit the in-between.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration. Within this space, Davis uncovers creative, even fantastical strategies for shifting human and more-than-human relationships towards a more ecologically just world.\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EVillamil \u0026amp; Villamil \u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cspan\u003Eis a Colombian artist duo founded by brothers Sebasti\u00e1n and Felipe Villamil. Working across sculpture, animation, moving image, sound and immersive installation, their practice appropriates elements of contemporary visual culture and intervenes through strategies of spectacle, including amplification, staging, repetition and hypervisibility. Through these interventions, they seek to disturb the \u201cconsensus of reality\u201d and draw attention to the invisible infrastructures that shape it.\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EGrace Piontek (they\/them)\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E is a visual artist exploring the ecology of queer animacy, intimacy and its expression. As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art. With a previous background in ecology and biology, their work arises out of the mythologies and hypotheses of the scientific world, exploring sites of tension or incoherence.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ELily Regalia (she\/her)\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E is a painter born in Saint Paul, Minnesota and based in Phoenix, Arizona. She explores how domestic spaces are structured to mirror the psyche. Working across painting and drawing intertwined with direct observation and self-portraiture, her practice investigates themes of identity, intimacy and absence. Having grown up in a family that renovates houses, there is a continued fascination with observing their interiors and how people within inhabit the in-between. She uses these unfinished states to reflect the instability and incompleteness within human connection.\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EDawn Kushner (she\/her)\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cspan\u003E is an Appalachian interdisciplinary artist whose practice centers around grief, memory and the cumulative effects of extractive capitalism.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err.

Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Since 2022, SI has undertaken a comprehensive process of examining its carbon emissions, energy use, travel, transportation, waste, materials and other aspects of institutional practice, with the goal of moving beyond isolated \u201cgreen\u201d initiatives toward a broader transformation of how an arts organization operates. Hessler will reflect on how this process has informed SI\u2019s curatorial thinking, including \u201c\u003Cspan\u003ESpora,\u201d an open-ended initiative that invited artists to intervene in the institution\u2019s architecture, infrastructures and working processes, and \u201cEnergies,\u201d an East Village-wide exhibition that addressed ecological affordances and effects, social formations and political arrangements attached to energy past and present. Rather than treating sustainability as a fixed set of solutions, SI approaches climate action as a collaborative process of learning, experimentation and institutional change. This includes rethinking exhibition materials and production, transportation and shipping, travel, reuse, partnerships and relationships with local communities. Drawing on SI\u2019s experiences, Hessler will consider how museums and arts organizations might redefine institutional success, collaboration, growth and progress in an era of ecological urgency.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Ch5\u003ESpeaker Biography\u003C\/h5\u003E\u003Cp\u003EStefanie Hessler is a curator, writer, editor and the Director of Swiss Institute (SI) in New York.

In this conversation, LACMA curators Leah Lehmbeck, Bobbye Tigerman and Clarissa Esguerra will discuss the curatorial vision behind the reinstallation, examining how the museum has reconsidered traditional narratives through new thematic, cross-cultural and interdisciplinary frameworks. They will explore the intellectual and practical challenges of reinstalling a global collection within a new architectural context, including decisions around object selection, interpretive strategies, audience engagement and accessibility.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.

Having grown up in a family that renovates houses, there is a continued fascination with observing their interiors and how people within inhabit the in-between.

Her practice is a space where dirt, bones and jars of microscopic algal communities meet costumes, wigs and jars of glass glitter; where queerness and an unruly curiosity for the natural world guide research and artistic exploration.

As a photographer, they primarily work with film. Using analog practices offers a tactile and embodied approach to image making, one that mirrors the human experience of physicality and possibility to err. As a photographer with a visual impairment, the language afforded through these discoveries is a vital part of their practice. Grace is exploring other media as well, including textiles, ceramics, and video art.
