50th Commemoration of May 4

I had always been making art and music but the events of May 4th and beyond galvanized my creativity, infusing it with an existential anger and urgency that would otherwise not have happened. In short Devo and the idea of De-evolution as a manifesto would not exist without that defining historic trauma I experienced. - Jerry Casale
War photojournalist and author Ben Brody is bringing his work to 窪蹋勛圖厙 through his exhibit, A Second Moon. The exhibit, curated by Moema Furtado, an installation artist and independent curator, runs from March 5-15 at the Crawford Gallery in the Center for Visual Arts.
窪蹋勛圖厙s Wick Poetry Center is set to debut its Armed With Our Voices exhibit this week in Austin, Texas, as part of the National Council for the Social Studies annual conference. The exhibit provides a powerful form of cross-generational connection that engages users in the events of May 4, 1970, and the importance of peace, conflict resolution and student activism today.
