SUMMARY:Art Exhibit: 'Urban Devotions\, Images of Faith in the City'
DESCRIPTION:The Refuge Gallery at the Institute of International Humanitarian Affairs (IIHA) is pleased to invite the Fordham University community to our spring photography exhibition\, “Urban Devotions\,” featuring Bronx-born visual journalist and former New York Times Bronx Bureau Chief David Gonzalez. His show was recently featured at Lincoln Center and now lives at Rose Hill until May 1st. \nAbout “Urban Devotions” photo exhibition at the Refuge Gallery:\nNew York has been a city of faith\, whether it’s small devotions in unexpected nooks or bold public declarations of belief. And with a global city reshaped every few generations\, traditions offer a familiar and comforting touch\, if not hope itself\, in every corner of the city if you look. Indeed\, as the writer Oscar Hijuelos once said to me about New Yorkers who go about their days oblivious to the nuances of faith: “They are like tone-deaf. They hear a piano being played and they only hear ‘thunka-thunk.’ There is this wild jazz going on called religion and some people don’t have the chops.”\n-David Gonzalez \nTo visit:\nFrom now until May 1st\, the Refuge Gallery will stay open for viewing by appointment at brcahill@fordham.edu and refugegallery@fordham.edu Monday – Thursday during regular business hours. Canisius Hall is just outside the Pedestrian Entrance and Fordham Regional Parking Facility at 2546 Belmont Ave\, Bronx\, NY. We strongly encourage class visits. See directions and learn more about the Refuge Gallery here. \nAbout David Gonzalez\nDavid Gonzalez is a journalist at The New York Times. Among other posts\, he has been the Times Bronx Bureau Chief\, the “About New York” Columnist\, and the Central America and Caribbean Bureau Chief. His coverage has ranged from the Oklahoma city bombing and Haiti’s humanitarian crises\, to chronicling how the Bronx emerged from years of official neglect\, to in-depth reports on how Latino immigration is shaping the United States. In addition to his print reporting\, Gonzalez is a photographer and was the co-editor of the Times Lens Blog\, which was once the premier internet site for photojournalists from around the world. \nIn 2009\, Gonzalez and five fellow photographers—Angel Franco\, Joe Conzo Jr.\, Ricky Flores\, Francisco Molina Reyes II\, and Edwin Pagán—formed a collective known as Seis del Sur (Six from the South)\, with the shared goal of documenting the life of the South Bronx which they had all witnessed\, particularly from the 1970s through the early 1990s.

SUMMARY:Fordham Theatre Presents: 'Horoscope'
DESCRIPTION:Don’t miss the final MainStage production of the 2024-25 season! \nThe world premiere of Horoscope runs March 10\, 2025 – April 26\, 2025. \nThe culminating production of the season is Fordham Theatre’s commissioned work by acclaimed playwright Rajiv Joseph\, a Pulitzer Prize finalist and recipient of the Obie award. Helmed by the Director of the Theatre Program\, May Adrales\, this collaboration marks a significant milestone. The genesis of the play took root in Adrales’ Rehearsal Technique class\, where initial concepts were explored with Fordham students. Now\, through the collective efforts of Fordham students and faculty\, the play will be brought to life in its entirety. Serving as a tribute to the boundless creativity\, intellect\, and curiosity within the Fordham community\, the production aims to be a vibrant celebration of collective talent and ingenuity. \nStory synopsis: Horoscope is a darkly funny and emotionally charged drama about fate\, family\, and the chaos of human connection. In a decaying world where human life expectancy is drastically reduced\, children become worshipped alongside the stars. As a group gathers for a wedding at a sprawling estate\, everyone must decide whether the stars dictate our lives or we can choose our own destiny. \nTo reach Fordham Theatre Box Office\, email us at fclcboxoffice@gmail.com or call 212.636.6340.

SUMMARY:Lecture—Botany of Empire: Plant Worlds and the Scientific Legacies of Colonialism
DESCRIPTION:Colonial ambitions spawned imperial attitudes\, theories\, and practices that remain entrenched within botany and across the life sciences. Banu Subramaniam\, an interdisciplinary plant biologist and Luella LaMer Professor of Women’s and Gender Studies at Wellesley College\, draws on fields as disparate as queer studies\, Indigenous studies\, and the biological sciences to explore the labyrinthine history of how colonialism transformed rich and complex plant worlds into biological knowledge. \nTheir third book\, Botany of Empire: Plant Worlds and the Scientific Legacies of Colonialism (University of Washington Press\, 2024)\, demonstrates how botany’s foundational theories and practices were shaped\nand fortified in the aid of colonial rule and its extractive ambitions. We see how colonizers obliterated plant time’s deep history to create a reductionist system that imposed a Latin-based naming system\, drew on the imagined sex lives of European elites to explain plant sexuality\, and discussed foreign plants like foreign humans. Subramaniam then pivots to imagining a more inclusive and capacious field of botany untethered and decentered from its origins in histories of racism\, slavery\, and colonialism. This vision harnesses the power of feminist and scientific thought to chart a course for more socially just practices of\nexperimental biology.

SUMMARY:Filming Words – Nurith Aviv: Screenings and Conversations\, Day 3
DESCRIPTION:A screening of Words That Remain (2022​) and Bruly Bouabré’s Alphabet (2005) with Nurith Aviv in conversation with Gil Anidjar\, Yemane Demissie\, Cynthia Madansky\, James Redfield\, and Moulie Vidas\nCo-sponsored by Fordham’s Center for Jewish Studies\, Centro Primo Levi\, and Fordham’s Center on Religion and Culture \nWords That Remain  (2022)\nWhat is a mother tongue? In this film six voices call forth memories of the languages that shaped their childhoods: Judaeo-Spanish\, Judaeo-Arabic\, and Judaeo-Persian—each infused with lexical elements of Hebrew and written in the Hebrew script. Though these languages are fading\, their melodies\, cadences\, and intonations linger\, shaping the consciousnesses of those who once heard them in their homes. \nBruly Bouabré’s Alphabet (2005)\nWhat remains of a language when no one is left to speak it? In the Ivory Coast\, some 600\,000 Bété people communicate mainly in a language that is absent from their schools\, overshadowed by the dominance of French. In the 1950s\, artist Frédéric Bruly Bouabré sought to change that. He devised hundreds of pictograms\, drawn from the simple syllables of Bété\, to help his people claim the written word. Now in old age\, he reflects on his mission: to craft an African script born from the images of daily life\, preserving in symbols what speech alone could not. \nNurith Aviv (Tel Aviv\, Mandatory Palestine\, 1945) has directed ​​18 documentary films. Her works investigate language and move lyrically through the landscapes\, collective myths\, and intimate narratives that shape humans’ ways of being together. The first woman to be a director of photography in France\, she has shot a hundred fiction and documentary films with directors such as Agnès Varda\, Amos Gitai\, René Allio\, and Jacques Doillon. She has received important prizes\, including the Edouard Glissant Prize (2009) and the Grand Prix de l’Académie française (2019). Her works have been shown in multiple retrospectives in Paris\, including a week-long one last month. She has been the subject of a movie (Woman with a Camera by Zohar Behrendt\, 2023) and now of a book (Filmer la Parole\, 2025). \nThis tribute\, the fruit of a collaboration between the Fordham University Center for Jewish Studies\, the Primo Levi Center\, and the Fordham Center on Religious and Culture\, is the first of its kind in New York City. It will gather Aviv’s long-time fans\, newcomers to her work\, and lovers of language from all backgrounds to celebrate through images and words this exceptional director as she turns 80.
