The piece holds a deeply introspective mirror up to the audience so that they may see the power struggle between socialization and identity. It represents the choreographic process of representing personal conflict in dance, especially regarding gender representations in traditional dance and the changing gender landscape of dance. I See Her Face is a contemporary solo choreographed on dancer Molly Bagatto by Kennedy Cole. This work was premiered at The University of Akron Dance Company’s Fall 2021 dance concert. I See Her Face was subsequently selected by dance faculty to be performed at the East-Central Conference of the American College Dance Association in March 2022 and received highest recognition from the adjudicating panel of experts.","PeriodicalId":36214,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings from the Document Academy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42992608","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is a border trail taken by people who fled European totalitarian regimes during World War II. Its point of arrival, which overlooks the Mediterranean Sea, is the cemetery of Portbou, which recalls the memory of Walter Benjamin who died there on September 26, 1940. Between irony and tragedy, the tombstone takes up the famous quote from the philosopher “There is no document of culture that is not at the same time a document of barbarism.” In front of the cemetery, a memorial, created by the artist Dani Karavan, pays homage to the German philosopher, it is called “passages.” This sculpted work testifies to a reflection on memory, the partition of space and the journey through time, in resonance with Benjamin's thought. The Walter Benjamin path can be analyzed as a rhizome document. The path, in a documentary maze, establishes a tension between visible and invisible, presence and absence.Walking along the Walter Benjamin trail is an invitation to think poetically about the world, an experience of documentarity where word and thing, idea and experience coincide.","PeriodicalId":36214,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings from the Document Academy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43025304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conceptually, I am exploring DIS-EASE in three ways: As you can see, I am painting directly onto the gallery wall. As the keeper of these galleries, I can assure you that this is a big no-no. I mean how dare anyone disturb these pristine surfaces?! The rationale behind my discomfort is rooted in the idea that the gallery is a sacred space, and that these walls ought to be kept pristine so that the objects displayed against them can “speak for themselves.” And mind you, they will go back to white, but returning this wall to a perfect white surface will take more than just priming and painting, but I will deal with that later. Since I’m painting directly onto the gallery wall, this piece will cease to exist the moment we paint over it in order to return the gallery to its pristine neutral background to accommodate an exhibition that is scheduled to open in this very space in about two months. The impermanence of this painting goes against every fiber of my painter soul. The idea of spending all this time and materials on something that will not survive tends to be counterintuitive to most artists, who are not known for having excess resources. A final way this activity will cause me discomfort is by extending the invitation to DOCAM to join me in painting. As a maker of things with very particular opinions on how things need to look, I tend to prefer to do all of the things myself—that way it will be done the way I would do it.","PeriodicalId":36214,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings from the Document Academy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45146390","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In both countries we see efforts focused on promoting reading outdoors. We also see efforts in both countries to take the library outside, thus perhaps ensuring the library’s continued visibility and relevance to the community served. In both cases, library resources and outdoor spaces are woven together, despite challenges associated with taking these resources and programs outside. We also see differences: Norwegians typically consider themselves to be outdoors-oriented people, and the placement of library resources into outdoor spaces could thus be seen as a strategy to “meet people where they are,” outdoors. In contrast, in the United States there is a perception that Americans suffer from nature deficit disorder, and thus there is a focus on leveraging the library to promote more healthy engagement in outdoor spaces. This article sets the stage for larger international trends of this emerging trend, which does not seem to be diminishing even as vaccination rates suggest the COVID-19 Pandemic may be entering a new endemic stage.","PeriodicalId":36214,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings from the Document Academy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48137864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
