Ren\u00e9e Petropoulos and Arturo Hern\u00e1ndez | Directed Reading
\nSaturday October 19 | 2-4 PM
\nTongva Park | 1615 Ocean Avenue
\nRen\u00e9e Petropoulos will collaborate with Oaxacan artisan Arturo Hern\u00e1ndez on a directed reading at Santa Monica’s Tongva Park, performed by invited members of the public in many simultaneous languages. For the directed reading, Petropoulos seeks to identify words and phrases that are not directly translatable between English, Spanish, and Zapotec, an indigenous language of the Mitla region. Other languages, such as Amharic and Hebrew, may also be included. Artisans and community members will be invited to contribute texts to create the directed reading, which will be performed by participants cast from among the public. Multiple individuals will represent \u201cvoices\u201d such as those of ancestors or from literature. Petropoulos will create a performance score based on the interplay of these words and phrases to convey emotional and cultural meanings without enabling language comprehension in a traditional sense.
\nACCESSIBILITY:
\nOur gallery and event spaces are fully accessible, with ground level entrances with no steps. Upon requests for assistance, we will make programmatic aspects of our projects available in accessible alternative formats. You can email requests or questions at communications@18thstreet.org.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
