SUMMARY:Ernest Withers: Goodnight My Love
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition of photographs from the Ernest Withers collection\, including works from Dr. Withers’ vast archive of more than one million negatives that have never been seen by the public. \nOn view: March 17-May 13\nOpening reception: Saturday\, March 17\, 6-8 pm \n\nAbout the artist:\nErnest Columbus Withers (1922-2007) was a freelance photojournalist in Memphis\, Tennessee and captured nearly 60 years of cultural history.  \nBorn and raised in Memphis to Arthur and Pearl Withers\, Ernest was the fifth of six children. Ernest Withers’ love of photography was sparked when he received his first camera\, a hand-me-down gift from his sister when he was a young boy. When Withers enlisted in the army in 1942\, he was trained as a military photographer and learned darkroom development while serving in the South Pacific during World War II. \n After returning home to Memphis\, Withers was one of the first nine African Americans appointed to the Memphis Police Department and was given a beat right on Beale Street. While working as a police officer\, Withers continued to pursue his career as a photographer and in the 1950s\, he helped spur the movement for equal rights with a self-published photo pamphlet on the Emmitt Till murder and trial. Unfortunately\, Withers’ popularity as a photographer compromised his position as a police officer and eventually led to him leaving the Memphis Police Department. \nWithers’ collection includes pictures of early performances of Elvis Presley\, B.B. King\, Ike and Tina Turner\, Ray Charles\, Aretha Franklin\, Isaac Hayes\, Howlin’ Wolf\, and the list goes on and on. Many locals knew of Ernest Withers as “The Picture Taker” because he never went anywhere without his camera. He photographed the day to day life\, backyard get-togethers\, family reunions\, weddings\, proms\, and much more. \nIn his more than 60-year career\, Withers accumulated a collection of an estimated 1.8 million photographs; his works appeared in The New York Times\, The Washington Post\, The TriState Defender\, the Pittsburgh Courier\, Jet\, Ebony\, Newsweek\, Life\, People\, and Time\, and have been featured in touring exhibits and shows around the world. The Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington D.C. currently displays over 30 of Ernest C. Withers’ images.  \nFor his life’s work\, Withers was elected to the Black Press Hall of Fame and received an honorary doctorate from the Massachusetts College of Art. Withers had nine children and married his high school sweetheart\, Dorothy Curry. Ernest C. Withers passed away on Monday\, October 15\, 2007\, at the age of eighty-five. You can see his work at The Withers Collection Museum and Gallery in Memphis at 333 Beale Street.

SUMMARY:Talking Back to the Screen: Feminism & Film Criticism
DESCRIPTION:Monthly filmmaking forum presented by Indie Memphis and Crosstown Arts \nIn Alice Bolin’s upcoming book\, Dead Girls\, she writes about moving to L.A. and seeing the city through a white male literary lens\, and needing to trust her own eyes rather than what she’s read. Miriam Bale’s path through the male-dominated world of film criticism at New York newspapers was similarly one of learning to trust her own eyes. The two writers will have a dialogue about different ways to engage with writing about film\, a misogynistic industry\, as women. Dead Girls (which covers Twin Peaks to True Detective) is an essay collection out in June 2018 from William Morrow/ HarperCollins. Alice Bolin teaches nonfiction at the University of Memphis. \nMiriam Bale is new Senior Programmer of the Indie Memphis Film Festival. \nDoors open at 6:30pm | panel discussion begins at 7pm\nFree and open to the public\nComplimentary beverages

SUMMARY:The Speed Trials Arcade
DESCRIPTION:New work by Crosstown Arts resident artist Josh Short \nInspired by 1980s era arcade games\, Josh Short has created a series of interactive driving simulators based on popular American mythologies about the road and our love/hate relationship with cars. Josh uses cast-off exercise equipment\, hand-made banners\, remote-controlled cars\, surveillance cameras\, and detritus found from the road to create a mechanical “Bricolage.” \nShort’s machines invite viewers to vicariously experience the life of a long haul trucker or an outlaw biker driving into the sunset. Using topical inspiration\, Josh has created a simulator “Slow Speed Chase” inspired by the 1994 O.J. Simpson white Bronco LA freeway incident. \nThe whole experience is moderated by the “Final Boss.” The artist controls the speed of the roads\, monitors the crashes\, and the arcade music accompanying the games. \nCome Experience the arcade that never was …

SUMMARY:Crosstown Arts Resident Artist Talks
DESCRIPTION:Resident artists Averell Mondie\, Vanessa Gonzalez\, Josh Short\, and Carrie Rubinstein will discuss their work. \nAbout the artists:\nAverell Mondie hails from Memphis\, TN. His self-taught photography focuses on portraiture\, street photography\, and photojournalism. Averell strives daily to capture city life\, particularly in his hometown\, in a unique gritty\, moody\, and minimalist style. \nSpurred often by galvanizing community development\, Averell walks\, bikes\, and buses through the corridors and alleys of Memphis\, chasing light and exploring relics deeply rooted in the city’s past. His style becomes more defined daily\, composing many of his shots with a cinematic frame\, focusing on low light\, aggressive shadows\, and desaturated tone. \nVanessa Gonzalez is a printmaker who uses mixed media in her art work. She was born in Laredo Texas and raised in Leon Mexico. Gonzalez was exposed to Latino art and culture from an early age\, which inspired her to become passionate to its rich cultural traditions. Vanessa is currently living in Memphis TN\, where she earned her Masters Degree in Fine Arts at Memphis College of Art and is an elementary school art teacher at a charter school. Vanessa’s work has being exhibited not only in the United States but also internationally in Mexico\, Australia\, and Germany. \nJoshua Short‘s work blurs the line between audience\, artwork\, and performer\, inviting the viewer to complete the art. Much like the all-American spectacle of pro-wrestling\, the audience is part of the performance. The action of entering into the artwork as a participant generates a more authentic experience by suspending the social filters that we carry into everyday life. Short uses cultural detritus as a point of departure. The inherited meanings found within cast-off objects combined with his artistic sensibilities creates an altered space that frames contemporary American Mythologies and Rituals. \nCarrie Rubinstein is a Brooklyn-based sculptor who creates life-sized installations from paper with pen and ink. She earned her B.A. in Studio Art from Smith College\, a Post Baccalaureate degree in Sculpture from Brandeis University\, and her M.F.A. in Sculpture from Hunter College with an exchange semester at L’École des Beaux Arts in Paris. In 2013\, she was a sculpture resident at the Vermont Studio Center. This experience generated early work for Retrofit\, a full room installation made entirely from paper through drawings\, hollow constructed forms\, and casting. Brooklyn’s Rhombus Space presented Retrofit\, which was Rubinstein’s first NYC solo show\, and she was their August 2015 artist-in residence. In June 2017\, Rubinstein created the paper installation\, Found Underground\, at Hunter College’s Thomas Hunter Project Space in Manhattan. In September 2017\, Retrofit traveled to the Krasl Art Center in St. Joseph\, MI. This was Rubinstein’s first solo museum show. Other notable NYC based group shows include exhibitions at Arts@Renaissance\, Brooklyn Museum’s Go Open Studio Project\, A.I.R. Gallery\, Orgy Park\, and The Roger Smith Hotel.
