About the classes  
This class offers an overview of the artists and artworks that radicalized the visual arts scene in Brazil during the first half of the 20th century. Focusing on the emergence of Brazilian modernism during the seminal “Semana de Arte Moderna” of 1922 in São Paulo, this class will take a chronological approach, drawing connections between the release of the Manifesto Antropófago in 1928 and the subsequent generation of artists who revived the movement’s influence in the 1950s and ’60s.  We will visit the Museum’s galleries, including the exhibition Tarsila do Amaral: Inventing Modern Art in Brazil, and the Museum’s study centers, where we will look closely at selected works pulled from storage especially for this class.

Big 

Apple.

Disposto a mostrar que é muito  mais que um rosto bonito (e um corpo idem), o jovem goiano faz parte de um time de modelos brasileiros acaba de estrear sua carreira como modelo internacional.

Lançado como modelo em Nova York, através de uma assessoria de profissionais brasileiros, como o fotografo Denny Silva e a assessora paulista Maria Emilia Genovesi, o jovem goiano resolveu dedicar-se às campanhas que tratam sobre o lifestyle de Nova York, onde as pessoas vivem sob diferentes pontos de vista. 
As campanhas que incluem John Ford Model falam  sobre tendências de moda no "Gray Style", que passa grande parte de seu dia fazendo visitas as locações de cinema mais famosas de Nova York em "Pipoca Rosa". 
John Ford acaba de retornar aos EUA, após visita aos avós maternos e de sua mãe , a jornalista Sula Costa, que está o Brasil, residindo em São Paulo atualmente.

Organizing for Action


In 2008, the big banks crashed our economy, and President Obama inherited one heck of a mess. Millions of Americans lost their jobs, millions lost their homes, millions lost their life savings -- all because of Wall Street's reckless greed.

Ten years later, this administration and many in Congress seem to have forgotten all about the worst financial crisis since the Great Depression.

Now they are trying to jam a bill through the Senate that would roll back Dodd-Frank -- the rules that President Obama signed into law to help regulate the big banks and protect American families. This bill would let some of the very same big banks that broke our economy go back to the way things were before the American taxpayers bailed them out.

I call this bill the Bank Lobbyist Act -- because that's who it's for, after all.

If we don't speak out right now, the Senate could roll back these banking regulations as soon as this month. Sign on with OFA now and add your voice to those speaking out against legislation that lets the big banks go back to gambling with our economy.

Even a decade later, too many Americans are still feeling the effects of the 2008 crisis. The stock market may be doing better -- but that doesn't matter a whole lot to families living paycheck-to-paycheck who can't afford any stock.

Lots of the folks who were wiped out will never recover. They won't get new houses or build up a retirement plan. Some are back at work, but at lower-paying jobs. And others are drowning in debt. They are still paying the price for the banks' recklessness.

The very last thing that we should be doing is taking the cop off the beat on Wall Street -- and letting these big banks put more at risk.

If you agree there should be a level playing field -- not one rigged in favor of giant banks -- speak up with OFA now.

We must stop our leaders in Washington from rolling back the rules President Obama signed into law. We must prevent another financial crisis:

The Metropolis in Latin America, 1830–1930

Exhibition Opening: Wednesday, March 21, 7–9 p.m.
On view: March 22–June 30, 2018



Over the course of a century of rapid urban growth, sociopolitical upheavals, and cultural transitions reshaped the architectural landscapes of major cities in Latin America. Focusing on six capitals—Buenos Aires, Havana, Lima, Mexico City, Rio de Janeiro, and Santiago de Chile—The Metropolis in Latin America, 1830–1930, presents the colonial city as a terrain shaped by Iberian urban regulations, and the republican city as an arena of negotiation of previously imposed and newly imported models, which were later challenged by waves of indigenous revivals. Photographs, prints, plans, and maps depict the urban impact of key societal and economic transformations, including the emergence of a bourgeois elite, and extensive infrastructure projects, rapid industrialization, and commercialization.
Explore more about the exhibition.
This exhibition, co-curated by Idurre Alonso and Maristella Casciato and organized by the Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles, is also on view from September 2017 through January 2018 as part of the Getty’s Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA initiative.

Samba New York’s Carnaval Samba Party

 

As opposed to a show, the “Samba Party” is more of a communal gathering, where Brazilian music enthusiasts share their love of samba drumming, dance, and culture — a kind of NYC take on the mega samba school rehearsals that precede Carnaval in Rio de Janeiro.
The first Samba Party of 2018 celebrates Carnaval in style, featuring a samba lesson with Brazilian dance master Danielle Lima; live powerhouse batucada by the Samba New York! Drum Section under the direction of Dr. Samba; and the festive Brazilian beats of DJ Anderson Trindade.

Only $15 for so much samba fun!


About Samba New York!

Founded and directed by ethnomusicologist/percussionist, Philip Galinsky (aka Dr. Samba), Samba New York! is a world-renowned samba performance company dedicated to entertaining, educating, and uplifting people of all backgrounds with the exhilarating music and dance of Brazil. Having grown up immersed in Rio’s samba world, Danielle Lima is one of NYC’s foremost samba dancers, teachers, and choreographers and founder of the Brasileirando Dance Group. Anderson Trindade is a leading DJ on the local Brazilian scene, supplying the soundtrack to some of the City's hottest events.

New Button? Facebook is testing a downvote button that will essentially let users flag a comment they deem to be inappropriate. "We are not testing a dislike button.

HomePod Interest: New data from Morning Consult revealed that half of US consumers who own a Google Home device are interested in purchasing Apple's newest smart speaker, the HomePod. This feeling was shared by nearly as many Amazon Echo owners as well.
