SUMMARY:Mary Ann Peters: myself inside your story
DESCRIPTION:An artist and activist for five decades\, Mary Ann Peters’ drawings\, paintings\, and sculptural installations address the incomplete histories of the Middle East. A second-generation Lebanese American woman\, Peters is simultaneously connected to and distanced from a family homeland known to her through generations of stories\, photographs\, and lived experiences\, as well as her travels abroad\, and – like many of us – from news sources.  As the title of exhibition hints\, Peters makes reference to histories that are not her story but are\, by heritage\, a connection to documented cultural records tied to the Middle East.

SUMMARY:SAFF Arab Film Club: Dreams of a City
DESCRIPTION:When his father dies\, Dib\, his younger brother and their mother move away from their hometown Quneitra to Damascus. The mother’s despotic father reluctantly takes them in and tries to force the mother to remarry. Overwhelmed by the magic of the city\, Dib wants to discover everything and is full of dreams. His daily life is shaped by insults and punishments however. Dib grows up against a backdrop of the political upheavals of the 1950s (the end of the military dictatorship in Syria and the nationalization of the Suez Canal\, Nasser’s taking of power in Cairo\, Egyptian and Syrian unification in 1958) and loses his childish illusions in the face of such violence and brutality. The dreams of the city prove to be a nightmare. Mohammad Malas’ partly autobiographical debut film marked the transition to auteur cinema in Syria.

SUMMARY:Samia at the Neptune Theater
DESCRIPTION:Bovine excision\, a mysterious phenomenon involving the bloodless surgical removal of cattle organs\, serves as the eerie inspiration for the opening track of Samia’s third album\, aptly titled Bloodless. Her voice flows through the evocative lyrics with ease\, weaving through the gentle strum of a lone acoustic guitar. The quiet intimacy builds into a storm of sound\, culminating in Samia’s layered\, ethereal harmonies that pierce with a haunting\, macabre refrain: “And drained\, drained bloodless.” \nThese emptied cattle evoke a grotesque vessel she unwittingly nurtured in an attempt to embody something both untouchable and on display\, overflowing with infinite projections and capable of driving an unrelenting pursuit of the unattainable. Through sharp images—Diet Dr. Pepper and Raymond Carver as parallel pursuits of minimalism\, white underwear and leeches\, a Degas dancer poised at the bannister—Samia examines a paradoxical existence where merit transforms into a calculated act of extraction (“I felt the pea\, can I eat it?”). This is just one strand Samia weaves into the intricate tapestry of Bloodless. \nRich with layers that shift seamlessly from sparse folk to sweeping indie-pop epics\, Bloodless explores Samia’s relationship with a fragmented\, symbolic version of Men—a patchwork of expectations and imagined standards she tried to meet\, which ultimately shaped her sense of self. “I’ve spent the past two decades unintentionally conflating men with my understanding of God\,” Samia explains. “The person I became in order to impress this imagined figure is inseparable from who I am today. With this album\, I’ve tried to confront that head-on.” \nWritten & produced in both North Carolina and her new home of Minneapolis throughout 2024\, Bloodless finds Samia reuniting with longtime-collaborator Caleb Wright and Jake Luppen for the highly-anticipated follow-up to 2023’s revered Honey\, which followed Samia’s 2020’s breakthrough debut The Baby. Across these thirteen songs\, Samia grapples with the hollow form she once embodied — a vessel that gained value through its own absence\, until playing dead became its own form of life. With Bloodless\, she endeavors to disinter the self buried beneath these carefully constructed personas\, ultimately reaching a place of acceptance for her whole\, imperfect being.
