He visited concentration camps in Berlin and Vienna. “In America if you were Black\, you were a slave\, you picked cotton and sugar cane and that was it\,” said Arnold. “But to see how the Germans built these camps/houses with sinks and toilets and wash basins for people that you were going to annihilate– to me\, it made no logical sense.” Despite facing his own share of systemic barriers and societal prejudices\, his work conveys a sense of activism and empathy\, calling for a dialogue that bridges the past to the present. \nMei-Yin Ng Focusing initially on modern movement as inner being\, Ng’s work continues to evolve with the possibilities of contemporary technologies. Her extensive prop training in Chinese dance inspired her to meditate on the use of props\, and later technology\, as an extension of the human form. She founded MEI-BE WHATever in 2002 as a collective field for collaboration and experimentation of technology in just this vein. MEI-BE WHATever has performed at festivals\, museums and theatres in US\, Asia\, Europe\, North and south America. \nSiaka Hinton “My screenplays\, in sum\, nurture characters\, birthed by phenomena and landscapes\, which I absorb each day. Because of my fervor and devotion to heart and spine of each story\, I feel them vividly\, which is what motivated me to create in school\, and will continue to drive me\, like a trusted collaborative hand\, tending to the life and soul of every creation.” URL:https://westbeth.org/event/get-to-know-your-neighbors/ LOCATION:Westbeth Community Room CATEGORIES:past-events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://westbeth.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/GET-TO-KNOW-SQ-NEIGHBORS_OCTv122.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20241013T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20241013T193000 DTSTAMP:20260424T000000 CREATED:20240807T204946Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241014T174612Z UID:10000576-1728844200-1728847800@westbeth.org SUMMARY:Pedro Giraudo Tango Quartet Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month at Westbeth DESCRIPTION:Click to enlarge \n \n Sunday Sept 15\, 2024 at 6:30pm\nand\nSunday Oct 13\, 2024 at 6:30pm \nWestbeth Community Room\n155 Bank St\nenter through courtyard\nNYC \nFree to Westbeth Residents\nTicket Information\nOct 13\, 2024 Eventbrite \nCelebrate Hispanic Heritage Month @ Westbeth Artist Housing with the sounds of the Pedro Giraudo Tango Quartet feat. dancers Mariana Parma & Leonardo Sardella \nPedro Giraudo Tango Quartet\nNick Danielson\, violin\nLoic Cordeone Da Silva\, bandoneón\nAhmed Alom\, piano\nPedro Giraudo\, bass\nDancers\nMariana Parma & Leonardo Sardella \nHispanic Heritage Month @ Westbeth Artists Housing is made possible in part with public funds from Creative Engagement\, a regrant program supported by the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council and administered by LMCC. \nDon’t miss out!
