Artists’ Reception: Sept. 12, 4:30 – 7:30 p.m.
...
Lecture, "The Impact of 9/11 on Recent Art" by Dr. Dennis Raverty: Sept. 14, 1 p.m. at the auditorium (B08; adjacent to the gallery)
In recognition of the tenth anniversary of 9/11, NJCU Visual Arts Gallery presents “AFTERWARDS and FORWARD: A ten-year 9/11 reflective art exhibition,” to promote dialogue, deeper reflection, meditation, and contextualization relating to or emerging from the 9/11 disaster and to shed light on prevailing issues about violence in the world. Three themes are represented in the exhibition: artistic responses to 9/11; artistic responses to the war on terror; artworks to promote peace efforts. Each of 18 artists whose work has been selected for the exhibit has demonstrated a strong commitment to anti-war issues throughout his or her career.
The exhibition includes two significant works on loan from the National September 11 Memorial Museum: Milton Rosa-Ortiz’s Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, a light box with World Trade Center debris; and Werner Pfeiffer’s artist’s book, Out of the Sky-9/11 a tribute. Among other highlights of the exhibit are: Joel Meyerowitz’s Nov. 12, 2001, 2001 North Tower Shrouded in Smoke and Spray, a photograph from his Aftermath: Images from Ground Zero, 2001 series; Yoko Ono’s Wish Tree; and Ultra Violet’s sculpture, IX XI.
Other contributors to the exhibition are: Hugo Bastidas, an NJCU professor of painting; Richard A. Buntzen, a 2009 NJCU alumnus and collage artist; Nemat El-Nasser, a Jordanian artist; Carole A. Feuerman, an internationally active sculptor; Ben Jones, NJCU professor emeritus of art; Thierry Palau, a French graphic designer; Duda Penteado, a Brazilian-American artist; José Rodeiro, an NJCU professor of art history and painter; Herb Rosenberg, NJCU professor and sculptor; Patricia Saxton, a graphic designer/author; Jacqui Taylor-Basker, a film maker; Raul Villarreal, a 2006 NJCU alumnus and painter/author; and Chee Wang Ng, a Malaysian-American artist. Works by these artists include paintings, collages, prints, sculpture, graphic designs, a film, and an installation. A 24-page catalog is available on this exhibition at the gallery. (also available online).

... Segunda Quimbamba(5pm):
Segunda Quimbamba is a Jersey City Based percussion and dance ensemble that performs authentic Bomba and Plena, the drum music of Puerto Rico. The ensemble was founded by its director, Juan Cartagena and his wife Nanette Hernandez, as Los Pleneros de la Segunda (The Pleneros from Second Street) in 1989 during the Christmas season to perserve the Puerto Rican tradition of caroling called parrandas. Over the years, family members joined the group which began playing Bomba in 1995. In 1997 the name was changed to Segunda Quimbamba in honor of both Second Street, Jersey City, where most of the members live or have lived and Quimbamba, the mystical place described in a poem by the famous Puerto Rican poet Luis Pales Matos, called "Majestad Negra". in 1997 the Segunda Quimbamba Folkloric Center, Inc. was created to promote Bomba and Plena in New Jersey and the rest of the country. The Center produces a Newsletter about Bomba and Plena called, Guiro y Maraca and conducts music and dance workshops in these genres to share these traditions with the public and younger generations. Founder and Director Juan Cartagena was recognized as a Master folk artist by the New Jersey State Council on the Arts (NJSCA) in 2004. He also received FolkLife Apprenticeship grants from the NJSCA to further study Bomba and Plena with master artist Miguel Sierra, as well as study Bomba with Roberto Cepeda, a reknown master artist in Puerto Rico. Juan has also received a Mentorship grant from the Mid-Atlantic Arts Foundation to collaborate with Roberto Cepeda. In 2006 and 2007, Nanette Hernandez, the co-founder of the group, was awarded a Folklife Apprenticeship grant by NJSCA to study Bomba Dance with master artist, Juan Usera.
