'Rustin' Shines A Long Overdue Spotlight On The Architect Of The March On Washington
Six decades after Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his iconic “I Have a Dream” speech in front of an estimated 250,000 people on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, a new Netflix film is shining a spotlight on one of the architects of the March on Washington who has largely been left out of the history books.
Directed by George C. Wolfe (“Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom”) and written by Julian Breece and Academy Award-winner Dustin Lance Black (“Milk”), “Rustin” revisits a crucial chapter in the life of civil rights activist Bayard Rustin (played by Colman Domingo), who is best known for being a key adviser to King and organizing the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. Executive produced by Michelle and Barack Obama, who posthumously awarded Rustin the Presidential Medal of Freedom in 2013, the buzzy biopic dramatizes the weeks leading up to the historic march and explores Rustin’s identity as an openly gay Black man torn between love and duty in the 1960s.
“I love the fact that, even the way the script is written, we don’t leave his sexuality out of it at all. It’s infused with every part of who he is,” Domingo told NBC News in a recent video interview. “He’s messy in many ways, even with his relationship dealings. He’s a real, flawed human being who’s trying to do something extraordinary, but he’s just an ordinary man. He’s trying to figure out the systems in which he lives and trying to move the needle a little bit on our humanity.”
Wolfe, an acclaimed theater director and playwright who won multiple Tony Awards for directing Tony Kushner’s “Angels in America” and his own “Bring in ’da Noise, Bring in ’da Funk” in the 1990s, has long been interested in telling stories about ordinary people who do extraordinary things. Wolfe was asked to curate an exhibit more than a decade ago at the National Center for Civil and Human Rights in Atlanta, where he had an opportunity to delve into the life and accomplishments of Rustin, who died in 1987. -(source: nbc news)

This morning I took a history tour around Lincoln Square put on by Preservation Worcester. I learned a lot in the two and a half hour tour. I live close to Lincoln Square so it's wonderful to learn about the area. I even brought the group into the old courthouse which I worked at as Director of Facilities after it was turned into luxury loft apartments. Sadly upkeep has fallen by the wayside since the last time I was in the building.
My favorite nugget of knowledge was about Josephine Chapman, one of the first accredited architects in the country. No one would hire her so she opens her own practice in Boston with such success she opened a second in NYC. She's designed a couple buildings in the greatest city on earth, Worcester, MA.❤️

Celebrating 100 Years of Bauhaus Visiting Gropius House on the Equinox
The integration of art into all aspects of life is an ideal situation.
April 12, 2019 was the 100th anniversary of the Bauhaus school’s founding in Weimar, Germany. Established by Walter Gropius, the institution’s Proclamation described a utopian craft guild that combined architecture, sculpture, and painting into a single creative expression.
After immersion in a theory of materials, color, and formal relationships, Bauhaus students would enter specialized workshops, which included metalworking, cabinetmaking, weaving, pottery, typography, wall painting, music, and theater.
I am fortunate to be surrounded by friends who are living examples of this Gesamtkunstwerk (“all-embracing art form”) aesthetic. Envisioning life as a cross-pollinating, living work of art, our community of artist-makers fills life with beauty and function.
For instance, I went to visit Hapi in Arlington, MA, during the spring equinox, and he suggested taking a tour of the Gropius’ home in nearby Lincoln.
A recent article, “The 80-Year-Old Gropius House in Lincoln Is a Modernist Marvel,” published in Boston magazine explains the locale’s history:
Lured by a post at Harvard, Gropius had relocated to Massachusetts in 1937 with his wife, Ise, and daughter, Ati, renting a house in Lincoln while they planned for a home of their own. At the request of a mutual friend, philanthropist Helen Osborne Storrow provided land for and financed the construction of the new abode—a boon for a family that had been forced to abandon assets when they fled Nazi Germany for London in 1934. While Gropius and his partner Marcel Breuer were the official architects, the design was discussed nightly around the dinner table. Ise was the chief landscaper, and 12-year-old Ati offered input, too, requesting her own private entrance. Dad obliged with an outdoor spiral staircase, a curvy counterpoint to the clean-lined exterior that, he later wrote, “proved to be very practical because children could enter there directly without carrying dirt through the house.”
Admiring the inviting house, full of soulful, practical, and whimsical objects, beautiful as they sit frozen in time—as well as the largest collection of Bauhaus furniture outside of Germany—Hapi and I walked around and admired details like pre-Columbian statues gifted by Frida Kahlo, art by Joan Miró and Josef Albers on the walls, an early Marimekko dress neatly placed on the bed, and a theatrical light fixture that illuminate the dining room circle exactly to its edge.
On this day we visited—the 23rd of March—I wore an Agnes de Garron hat, St. John’s Bay corduroy shirt, Levi’s Iconic 501 jeans, and protective booties furnished by the house. Hapi wore a maroon bandanna, black Tasso Elba jacket, and maroon slacks and blue belt from Macy’s.

Architecture Design Copy
Diller, Scofidio + Renfro
Diller, Scofidio + Renfro (DS+R) is an interdisciplinary studio that fuses architecture with the visual and performing arts. The work of DS+R includes architectural commissions, temporary and permanent site-specific installations, multi-media theater, electronic media and print. Elizabeth Diller and Ricardo Scofidio founded D+S in 1979. Charles Renfro, a collaborator in the studio since 1997, was promoted to partner in 2004. The firm integrates architecture with new technologies, implements new materials and construction processes in its projects, and appropriates materials from unlikely sources such as the military, aerospace, and medical fields. Installations have been commissioned by the Museum of Modern Art and the Whitney Museum of American Art, both in New York; the Walker Art Center, Minneapolis; the Palais des Beaux-Arts, Brussels; and, Gallery Ma, Tokyo. Current projects include Boston ICA, which is in construction, the expansion and renovation of Lincoln Center, the design of the Highline as a public park in collaboration with Field Operations, and a master plan for Tivoli Gardens, Copenhagen. In 1999, Elizabeth Diller and Richard Scofidio were the first architects ever to receive the MacArthur Foundation Award. In 2002, the Whitney mounted a retrospective of the firm’s work.

Creating Lincoln: Sculptor Daniel Chester French
Born in New Hampshire in 1850, Daniel Chester French would grow up to be one of the most famous U.S. sculptors of his time. In 1867, French moved with his family to Concord, Massachusetts where he became a neighbor and friend of Ralph Waldo Emerson and the Alcott family. May Alcott is said to have been the influence pushing French to become a sculptor.
French spent his early training and education with William Rimmer for anatomy and William Morris Hunt for drawing. He then spent a year studying at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as well as in Florence at the studio of Thomas Ball. In 1875, French gained his first accolades and appreciation for his statue “Minute Man.” This statue was commissioned by the town of Concord, MA and was created to commemorate the battle of Lexington and Concord that had occurred 100 years prior.
Shortly after the sculpture creation, French opened his first studios: initially in Washington D.C., then moving to Boston, and finally to New York. With the World’s Colombian Exposition of 1893, French’s reputation began to grow as his “Statue of the Republic” gained national acclaim. French then followed this sculpture with other memorable works including: the “First Division Monument” and the “Butt-Millet Memorial Fountain” in Washington; “John Harvard,” Cambridge, Massachusetts; bronze doors for the Boston Public Library; and “The Four Continents” at the US Custom House, New York, which is now the Alexander Hamilton US Custom House.
French’s most popular work is the Lincoln Memorial, which was one of many projects that he collaborated with architect Henry Bacon on. For Indiana, French is known for creating the statue of Beneficence at Ball State University. In 1893, French became one of the founding members of the National Sculpture Society and then was appointed a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and letters in 1913. In 1917, French and his colleague, H. Augustus Lukeman designed the Pulitzer Prize medal- French specifically designed the side with Benjamin Franklin on it (Image from Pulitzer.org).
French was known for his collaborations. Besides working with those listed above, French also collaborated with Edward Clark Potter on the statue of George Washington in Paris, the statue of General Grant in Philadelphia, and the statue of General Hooker in Boston. He also worked Walter Leighton Clark and helped to found the Berkshire Playhouse, which later became the Berkshire Theater Festival. (Photo: Library of Congress, LC-USZ62-10017)
French received an honorary Master of Arts from Harvard after his creation of the statue of Emerson. He continued to sculpt and teach, including sculptor Edith Howland was one of French’s students. Howland was also known for studying under another famous Lincoln sculpture, Augustus Saint-Gaudens. French is also remembered for his estate and summer art studio, Chesterwood, that was designed by his friend and architect, Henry Bacon.
To learn more about Daniel Chester French and his influential friends, and to see images of Chesterwood, check out Harold Holzer’s article on his book “Monument Man: The Life and Art of Daniel Chester French” in “Lincoln Lore” available online here: https://www.friendsofthelincolncollection.org/lincoln-lore/an-interview-with-harold-holzer-on-monument-man/

Mark Pasnik Architect, OverUnder
Mark Pasnik Architect, OUT100 list 2020, Boston Architecture, Massachusetts Architectural News, Design
Mark Pasnik Architect News
Nov 23, 2020
We are delighted to share the news that architect, author and activist, Mark Pasnik, a Founding Principal at OverUnder, Chair of the Boston Art Commission and a Professor at Wentworth Institute of Technology is one of the honorees on this year’s OUT100 list as compiled by OUT magazine.
Mark Pasnik, OverUnder, in OUT100 list
Mark is the only honoree that is an Architect and his role in raising the profile of Boston’s significant architecture and advocating for a re-examination of the city’s historic statues is a focus of the citation.
Mark is honored for his career work as a champion of “unpopular battles” which is at the core of OverUnder, the architecture design firm rooted in advocacy which he co-founded in 2006. OUT cites Mark as an expert and published author on brutalism, of which Boston City Hall is one of the most widely recognized examples. With Michael Kubo and Chris Grimley, Mark is the author of Heroic: Concrete Architecture and the New Boston, which broke ground in the scholarly assessment of concrete buildings.

OUT also cites Mark’s role as Chair of the Boston Art Commission, where he has been reminded of the “value of meaningful public discourse in communicating across divides.”
“Every year, OUT magazine’s 100 most influential LGBTQ+ people of the year is filled with politicians, entertainers, athletes, and activists who’ve become household names,” explains Diane Anderson-Minshall, CEO & Editorial Director of Pride Media.
“Each time there are honorees who aren’t so well known, but who have moved their world, field, or community in ways equally deserving of recognition. Mark Pasnik is one of those gems, a champion who has influenced our understanding of brutalist architecture as well as public monuments. His thought leadership and public action have touched many across the country, rippling outward through the ways his design firm OverUnder advocates for small cities that face real challenges and fights to preserve the legacies of earlier generations seen in buildings like Boston City Hall.”
The 26th annual OUT100 list is a collection of LGTBQ+ trail blazers, artists, leaders, and creators who have used their talent and voices to influence change and visibility in the last year.
I’ve included the text of the citation below and a link to the entire list of diverse, international honorees which includes François Arnaud, Tim Cook, Wilson Cruz, Karine Jean-Pierre, Rachel Maddow, Janelle Monáe, Queen Jean, Quinn, Ritchie Torres, Mary Trump, and Scott Wiener among others.
Mark Pasnik, Architect and Activist
When asked to describe himself, Mark Pasnik is humble. “I like to think of myself as having several interconnected roles — as an architect, educator, and advocate who champions the voices and legacy of other eras.”
In truth, Pasnik, who is gay, is also an expert and published author on brutalism, the “legacy of concrete modernist buildings,” as he defines the term. He cites Boston’s City Hall as “one of the most widely recognized” examples of the type of now-vilified structures “once celebrated for their bravado.” In his role as chair of the Boston Art Commission, Pasnik has been reminded of the “value of meaningful public discourse in communicating across divides.”
Earlier this year, the commission unanimously voted to remove the Emancipation Memorial in Park Square that depicted a freed American Black slave kneeling before Abraham Lincoln. He and others have implemented such discourse to address larger issues facing an increasingly polarized society suffering the effects of systemic oppression, which are often represented in historic statues that are out of step with today’s ethos. “I have been learning from many voices in Boston’s communities about symbolism and racial justice in public art,” he says.
Despite the current cultural divide, Pasnik remains hopeful for the future and the positive impact architecture can have in effecting change. “Architecture is a particularly fascinating art form because it records ideas from one era and transmits them across decades. Advocating for works of architecture means understanding those messages and sharing their lessons with new generations.” (https://overunder.co/)

Mark Pasnik, AIA
Founding Principal, OverUnder
Boston, MA
Mark Pasnik is an architect, author, and professor who co-founded OverUnder, a multidisciplinary practice engaged in architecture and design projects ranging from books to city design in the United States and abroad. His renown has centered on the challenge of preserving and rethinking concrete buildings from the modern era, most recently heading the firm’s work on a Getty Foundation-funded conservation management plan for Boston City Hall. He has been an activist in the effort to preserve the Government Service Center in downtown Boston, a building by the preeminent modernist Paul Rudolph, who was a gay man.
Not afraid to take on an unpopular battle, Mark is the “concrete guy” and this is the thread that connects his studies at Cornell and Harvard, his work as an architect and designer, his influence as a university professor and scholar, and his contributions to preservation.
Concrete modernism—often labeled with the term Brutalism—represents perhaps the single most controversial movement in architecture. Its monumentality and bravado are characteristics that may be considered either inspiring or dehumanizing. Yet Pasnik has helped bring a new appreciation to these misunderstood buildings. As a consequence, many that were once vilified are now gaining new appreciation.
With Michael Kubo and Chris Grimley, Mark is the author of Heroic: Concrete Architecture and the New Boston (Monacelli Press, 2015), which broke ground in the scholarly assessment of concrete buildings, receiving awards from Docomomo US, Historic New England, the Boston Society of Architects, and the Boston Preservation Alliance. An outcome of the popularity of the book is that the title term—Heroic—is being widely used as a new name for Brutalism, one that better reflects the original civic-minded aspirations behind the works.
Pasnik is also known for providing a renewed voice to the seminal men and women of the era through his research and publications, including two towering figures who passed away recently, Henry N. Cobb and N. Michael McKinnell.
Cobb was known for his skyscrapers around the globe, including Boston’s Hancock, and as a founder of New York’s Pei Cobb Freed & Partners. He died at 93 on March 2, shortly after Pasnik edited Cobb’s only book (Henry N. Cobb: Words & Works 1948-2018).
McKinnell, who won the competition for Boston City Hall at age 26, passed away from COVID-related causes at 84 on March 27. Pasnik worked closely with McKinnell to preserve his legacy of ideas and buildings.
Looking to the future, Pasnik has been leading studios at Wentworth Institute of Technology with dozens of aspiring architecture and design students, aiming to reimagine the future of important, yet often troubled, concrete buildings. His efforts have influenced civic conversations about preservation around structures like Rudolph’s Government Service Center (Rudolph passed away in 1997), which is currently in danger of partial demolition.
In 2019 Pasnik started a new initiative in conjunction with the city’s mayor’s office, where architecture students at Wentworth engage with high school students from Boston Public Schools to evaluate and reimagine a concrete building by Marcel Breuer in the Roxbury neighborhood.
Mark has taught at the California College of the Arts, Carnegie Mellon University, Northeastern University, Rhode Island School of Design, and Wentworth Institute of Technology, where he is currently a professor. He received the American Institute of Architects Young Architects Award and was a member of the executive board of Boston Society of Architects.
Pasnik currently serves as chair of the Boston Art Commission. In this role he has been an advocate for social justice in public art, most recently overseeing the public process that led to a unanimous vote to remove and recontextualize the Emancipation Group in Boston. The statue, showing Lincoln with his arm raised over a kneeling Black man, had been criticized for decades as a misrepresentation of history and a demeaning portrayal of the formerly enslaved figure, Archer Alexander. The vote on June 30 culminated two years of work and a series of public hearings. At a time when many controversial sculptures are being removed through illegal action, Boston’s process stands as a national model for deliberation and meaningful public discourse.
Pasnik and his life partner of twenty years, David Smith, reside in Boston and New York respectively.

Here Are the 2020 James Beard Awards Restaurant, Chef, and Media Finalists
Getty/Victor Spinelli/WireImage | Getty/Victor Spinelli/WireImage
The full list of nominees
Today, on what would have been the 30th annual James Beard Awards ceremony, the James Beard Foundation announced the finalists for the 2020 James Beard Awards, which honors the year’s outstanding restaurants and chefs, as well as food journalism, books, and broadcast media. The announcement was originally scheduled for March 25, but the coronavirus pandemic forced the Foundation to cancel the planned Philadelphia event and postpone both the finalists reveal and the awards themselves.
COVID-19 has left the restaurant industry in a precarious position, to put it mildly. Restaurants are pivoting their operations to stay in business, closing temporarily, and in some cases, closing for good. When the Foundation opted to postpone the finalist announcement, it acknowledged that it did so in part to focus on rebuilding the restaurant industry, awards being the last thing on anyone’s mind. And so it came as a bit of a surprise when on April 27 the Foundation announced plans to move forward with a virtual finalist announcement and, eventually, the 2020 James Beard Awards. Today, the Foundation revealed the Restaurant and Chef Awards Gala will take place in late September, and the Media Awards will take place in late May.
In a post on the James Beard Foundation website, chief strategy officer Mitchell Davis explained that the Foundation consulted with chefs, restaurateurs, and others in the industry and determined that the James Beard Awards finalists, like the list of semifinalists announced in late February, deserved recognition for their work in 2019. “Those we consulted felt the Awards could also offer a glimmer of hope to an industry looking for light in a very dark time,” he writes. Davis acknowledged that it is also a particularly dark time for the media, which will be recognized for the first time in the 2020 James Beard Awards cycle with the finalists announcement.
Given the ongoing restrictions related to COVID-19, the format for the 2020 James Beard Awards is still undecided — but they will go on, and “take place” in Chicago at some date later this year. “We want every James Beard Award winner to have a chance to have their moment in the spotlight,” Mitchell writes. “We have partners who support this industry, who support the Foundation, who are willing to work with us to figure out what’s best for all.”
Visit Philadelphia, which stands to lose millions due to the coronavirus pandemic, is still sponsoring the virtual event. Last year, Houston hosted the finalist announcement and although there was plenty of Texas representation on the semifinalists list, including 11 chefs and restaurants from Houston, the city’s restaurants and chefs were completely shut out of the whittled down finalists list. Philadelphia didn’t see the same fate.

The full list of nominees
Today, on what would have been the 30th annual James Beard Awards ceremony, the James Beard Foundation announced the finalists for the 2020 James Beard Awards, which honors the year’s outstanding restaurants and chefs, as well as food journalism, books, and broadcast media. The announcement was originally scheduled for March 25, but the coronavirus pandemic forced the Foundation to cancel the planned Philadelphia event and postpone both the finalists reveal and the awards themselves.
COVID-19 has left the restaurant industry in a precarious position, to put it mildly. Restaurants are pivoting their operations to stay in business, closing temporarily, and in some cases, closing for good. When the Foundation opted to postpone the finalist announcement, it acknowledged that it did so in part to focus on rebuilding the restaurant industry, awards being the last thing on anyone’s mind. And so it came as a bit of a surprise when on April 27 the Foundation announced plans to move forward with a virtual finalist announcement and, eventually, the 2020 James Beard Awards. Today, the Foundation revealed the Restaurant and Chef Awards Gala will take place in late September, and the Media Awards will take place in late May.
In a post on the James Beard Foundation website, chief strategy officer Mitchell Davis explained that the Foundation consulted with chefs, restaurateurs, and others in the industry and determined that the James Beard Awards finalists, like the list of semifinalists announced in late February, deserved recognition for their work in 2019. “Those we consulted felt the Awards could also offer a glimmer of hope to an industry looking for light in a very dark time,” he writes. Davis acknowledged that it is also a particularly dark time for the media, which will be recognized for the first time in the 2020 James Beard Awards cycle with the finalists announcement.
Given the ongoing restrictions related to COVID-19, the format for the 2020 James Beard Awards is still undecided — but they will go on, and “take place” in Chicago at some date later this year. “We want every James Beard Award winner to have a chance to have their moment in the spotlight,” Mitchell writes. “We have partners who support this industry, who support the Foundation, who are willing to work with us to figure out what’s best for all.”
Visit Philadelphia, which stands to lose millions due to the coronavirus pandemic, is still sponsoring the virtual event. Last year, Houston hosted the finalist announcement and although there was plenty of Texas representation on the semifinalists list, including 11 chefs and restaurants from Houston, the city’s restaurants and chefs were completely shut out of the whittled down finalists list. Philadelphia didn’t see the same fate.
Below, the 2020 James Beard Awards finalists.

Appropriation for straight people
stop singing America the Beautiful cause it was made by a lesbian woman.
Do not watch or read Breakfast at Tiffany’s nor any book by Truman Capote cause he was gay
do not watch Hairspray or any John Waters movie cause he was gay
Do not go to the Seagram Building and Lincoln Center in NYC and the One Detroit Center in Michigan because the architect was gay
Do not watch or sing or act West Side Story cause the music behind it was from a gay man
Do not listen to 'Symphony No. 3,' By Aaron Copland cause he was gay
Do not use or wear plastics, paints, dyes and even a type of gasoline because the creator George Washington Carver was gay, he even did some work on the peanut
Do not eat Campbells soup cause the cans were decorated by a gay artist named Andy Warhol
Do not read Adrienne Rich cause she was a lesbian poet
Do not read Walt Whitman cause he was gay
Do not read Gertrude Stein who was a lesbian
Janis Joplin was bisexual so do not listen to anything by her
The Matrix and Cloud Atlas were made by a transgender filmmaker so do not watch those films
NO GLEE
No Blues music cause Ma Rainey was a lesbian
No computers cause Alan Turing was the founder of modern computer science and he was gay
NO JEFFREE STAR MAKEUP
NO ELLEN DEGENERES
NO BARNEY FRANK
NO OSCAR WILDE
see the list can go on and on and if we segregate ourselves and our culture then we limit life cause as long as you can appreciate a culture and what it means then you can observe and see and feel the culture cause culture is beautiful.

FEATURE: LOCAL ARTISTS SHINE WITH THE ELLIES, MIAMI’S VISUAL ARTS AWARDS $500,000 OFFERED IN ANNUAL PROGRAM FOR INDIVIDUAL ARTISTS & ART TEACHERS
By Marika Lynch | Photos Courtesy of Oolite Arts
youtube
Whether they are bringing to life queer jazz singers from the early 20th century, or launching a major museum show that incorporates gay ephemera, Miami’s artists are doing big things with prize money from The Ellies, Miami’s Visual Arts Awards.
Started last year by Oolite Arts, the Miami Beach institution formerly known as ArtCenter/South Florida, The Ellies are meant to give local artists the financial boost they need to elevate their careers. Applications are being accepted through May 20 for year two of The Ellies, which will provide $500,000 to artists in addition to travel grants for Miami’s K-12 visual arts teachers. The application is available at theellies.org.
“Over the past decade, our artists have built this city’s reputation as a nationally recognized cultural capital. The first year winners of The Ellies demonstrate why,” said Dennis Scholl, CEO of Oolite Arts. “We hope The Ellies provide them with the resources to significantly advance their work and elevate their artistic practice.”
In 2018, the first year of The Ellies, Oolite Arts awarded funding to a diverse group of 44 visual artists and art teachers, working across a range of mediums and addressing themes from the environment to immigration and more.
Some of the artists that received Creator Awards that are LGBTQ, or that chose an LGBTQ theme to launch a project, include the following:
Pepe Mar will open his first major museum show this fall at The Mattress Factory in Pittsburgh. Informed by his 14-year collage practice, the museum solo show will incorporate artifacts, gay ephemera and Mar’s personal archive mining the identity of queer spaces.
Filmmaker Joe Cardona is making a documentary about the gay men who arrived in Miami from Cuba during the 1980s Mariel Boatlift, and their cultural, societal and historical impact on Miami.
Ricardo Mor is using art to examine protests, by appropriating a structure used to deter protests in Mexico City and transforming it into a public art piece that will function as an incubator for public dissent.
Artist and curator GeoVanna Gonzalez has created Supplement Projects, an exhibition space in her own home that expands the idea of how artists can create spaces for each other to curate and show their work. The current exhibit, “The Body as a Centerpiece,” focuses on ideas of domesticity and is open through May 26. Information is available at supplementprojects.splashthat.com.
Photographer Silvia Ros is creating an online and traveling exhibition focused on Cuban Modernist architects – the so-called Generación de los Cincuenta, active from the late 1930s until 1959. The exhibit looks at the international importance of their architecture and urban works and is produced in collaboration with the University of Miami’s School of Architecture.
Michelle Lisa Polissaint has launched “Moonshine Moanin,” an exploration of her queer identity as it relates to being raised in the South. Through the project, Polissaint performs the personas of female black queer jazz singers from the 1920s and ‘30s such as Ma Rainey and Bessie Smith, who spoke openly and unapologetically about their queerness in their work.
The Ellies are named in honor of Oolite Arts’ founder Ellie Schneiderman, a visionary who, in the 1980s, acquired several abandoned storefronts along Lincoln Road, foreseeing it as an ideal location for artist studios. Her vision: to create a place “to help artists help themselves.”
Those storefronts grew into what was then called ArtCenter/South Florida, which is credited for being a catalyst in the rebirth of Lincoln Road and South Beach. Earlier this year, the organization changed its name to Oolite Arts to better reflect its local roots and mission.
Any working artist can apply for a Creator Award from The Ellies, so long as they submit their ideas by May 20th at theellies.org. K-12 art teachers in Miami can also apply for a $5,000 travel grant to have art experiences in other cities that they can bring back to their classroom.
The 2019 winners will be announced in October at a special reception.

La bibliothèque du Congrès de Washington est une des plus belles du monde.
Cette ville de Washington a été construite par un architecte Français.
Le plan de la ville est l'œuvre de Pierre Charles L'Enfant, un ingénieur militaire, fils d'un peintre de la cour de France qui propose ses services à George Washington, dont il a fait la connaissance durant la guerre d'indépendance alors qu'il s'était engagé en 1777, à l'âge de 23 ans, aux côtés des insurgés américains.
WASHINGTON EST UNE VILLE MAGNIFIQUE DONT LA CONSTRUCTION EST GEOMETRIQUE.Sur le plan artistique, je voulais vous faire connaître ma création la photo-peinture, si cet art du 21ème siècle vous plait,
vous pouvez consulter mes photos et photos-peintures.JE ME PERMETS DE SIGNALER QUE CES PHOTOS ET CES PHOTOS PEINTURES SONT EN VENTE SEPAREMMENT SUR LA BOUTIQUE DE MARTINE ANCIAUX

Sur le plan historique, USA : the Indépendence day 4 Juillet 1776
©4 Juillet INDEPENDANCE DAY poème de THOMAS André©
Que fut longue, cette marche vers l’indépendance!
Signifié aux 13 colonies britanniques, le 4 juillet 1776 l’indépendance,
Fut proclamée par Thomas JEFFERSON, et depuis fête nationale aux USA,
De colonies anglaises, après d’âpres batailles, ce nouveau pays, s’appela les USA.
Pourquoi la France, et les Etats-Unis, sont ils si liées?
Et ont toujours étaient, des alliés?
LA France aida les USA, pour conquérir leur indépendance
Contre les anglais, qui avaient mis ses colonies lointaines, sous leurs dépendances.
Un des plus célèbres, fut le Marquis de La Fayette,
Un des acteurs importants de la guerre d’indépendance des USA,
Les insurgents, le héros des 2 mondes, surnom de La Fayette,
Et ses soldats eurent de grandes batailles contre les anglais, pour gagner le droit d’être les Usa.
Cette année, l’association Hermione et la France ont avalisé,
Le projet de refaire le trajet initial de l’Hermione vers la côte américaine,
Un projet insensé, de plus de 18 ans, pour pouvoir arrivait, avant la fête nationale américaine,
Et célébrer avec nos amis américains, the independence day, un rêve fou enfin réalisé.
Félicitations aux héroïques marins,
Et longue vie à ce bateau, et à ces courses maritimes
Qui ré ouvrent en nous les chemins de l’aventure, comme nos ancêtres marins,
Partaient sur ces mers aux nombreux périls qui jonchent le passé maritime.
translated by Google translation© July 4 INDEPENDENCE DAY poem André THOMAS
That was long, the march towards independence!
Served on the 13 British colonies, July 4, 1776 independence,
Was proclaimed by Thomas Jefferson, and since national holiday in the US,
English colonies, after hard battles, the new country was called the USA.
Why France and the United States, whether they are related?
And always were allies?
THE France helped the USA to win their independence
Against the English, who had put his distant colonies under their dependencies.
One of the most famous, was the Marquis de La Fayette,
One of the major players in the war of independence of the USA,
The insurgents, the hero of two worlds, nickname La Fayette
And his soldiers had great battles against the English, to earn the right to be the Usa.
This year, the association Hermione and France have endorsed,
The project to redo the initial leg of the Hermione towards the American coast,
A foolish project over 18 years, in order to arrive before the American national holiday
And celebrate with our American friends, the independence day, a crazy dream finally realized.
Congratulations to the heroic sailors,
Long live this boat, and these maritime races
Who we re open in the paths of adventure, as our sailors ancestors
Journeyed these seas to the many dangers that litter the maritime past.
