SUMMARY:Amir Zaki "Empty Vessel" - Online Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:James Harris Gallery is pleased to present our seventh exhibition by California artist Amir Zaki. Comprised of two bodies of work\, collectively entitled\, “Empty Vessel\,” the series features striking colorful photographs of both skateboard parks and broken ceramic vases. Together\, these images open a discussion of the history and future of photography and duplicitous version of truth in the modern world. In his work\, Zaki strives to disrupt common notions of authenticity\, monumentality\, and documentation through a hybridization of techniques. The two disparate series are connected through real and fictive space illuminating the truth between the everyday and the ideal. The gallery will mount virtual exhibitions until the next location of our physical space is announced in the fall of 2021. \nDownload the press release \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWORKS IN SHOW\nABOUT THE ARTIST\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAmir Zaki\nA firm believer in the transformative power of the photographic image\, Zaki images are rooted in the history of the medium and uses it to shed light on the means of representation. Over the last 16 years\, Zaki has pushed the physicality of the photograph’s two dimensional construct\, allowing it to exist on its own and also exploring its own object-ness.   In order to capture and record the original site\, Zaki’s representations depict the complexity of place in terms of interactive evolving experience\, an ongoing ecological intervention. The artist responds to the shifting contemporary landscape where nothing is permanent\, constructing his own visual language to illustrate an entire mythology of place. \nAmir Zaki lives and works in Southern California. He received his MFA from UCLA in 1999 and has been exhibiting nationally and internationally since graduating. He is a full professor at the University of California at Riverside. His work is included in many museum collections including the Hammer Museum of Art\, Los Angeles County Museum of Art\, New Museum of Contemporary Art\, Orange County Museum of Art\, Santa Barbara Museum of Art\, and the Whitney Museum of American Art\, among others.

SUMMARY:Blueprints for Bureaucracy: How the Egyptian Government Designed Settlements in the Desert to oversee Amethyst Mining
DESCRIPTION:WHEN\nThursday\, Jun 3\, 2021\, 6 – 7:30 p.m.\n\n\nONLINE MEETING LINK\nus02web.zoom.us…\n\n\nEVENT TYPES\nAcademics\n\n\nEVENT SPONSORS\nA Lecture Sponsored by the American Research Center in Egypt – Northwest Chapter\nCo-sponsored by the UW Dept. of Near Eastern Languages and Civilization\n\n\nFACEBOOK\nwww.facebook.com…\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDESCRIPTION\n\nThe design of a space is an essential element to the organization of productive work generated by the people using that space. The principles of organization of administration can speak to the greater importance of architecture and design as means of control and productivity. This talk will present results from ongoing archaeological survey and excavation of the Wadi el-Hudi Expedition in Egypt’s Eastern Desert. The focus will be on Sites 5 and 9. These types of settlements have often been confused with fortresses because of elements from their designs\, but fortification was not its main purpose. Various architectural and archaeological nuances demonstrate how Egyptian officials designed their spaces to maximize amethyst production quarried at these sites through the organization their workforces and workspaces. \nKate Liszka is the Benson and Pamela Harer Fellow in Egyptology and an Associate Professor of History at California State University\, San Bernardino. She received her PhD in Egyptology from the University of Pennsylvania in 2012. From 2012-2015 she was a Cotsen Postdoctoral Fellow in the Society of Fellows at Princeton University. Her research for the last decade has focused on interactions between Nubians and Egyptians. Kate also directs an archaeological project at Wadi el-Hudi\, in the Eastern Egyptian Desert\, where large Egyptian and Roman expeditions mined amethyst during the Middle Kingdom and Roman Period.
