During my walks around the neighborhood\, I started noticing a variety of these empty tree beds and began researching and documenting them\, reflecting on their strange beauty.” — In Absentia. \nArtists Katarina Jerinic & Lee Cannarozzo have been invited to intertwine their inquiries with their city-centered earth works that question and surface many of the same resonant mysteries that rhyme with the stories and surprises found in Hoyer’s photographs. \nJerinic will present excerpts from a site-specific project adopting-a-highway plot carved out between a BQE exit ramp and a congested Brooklyn street\, calling attention to the land itself and ways it is shaped by urban bureaucratic and natural forces\, passers-by\, and Jerinic’s own endless efforts to maintain it. \nWhile Cannarozzo will share his experiments transforming a selection of neglected public micro spaces into ephemeral works of Land Art with a temporary installation project called FLAX ESTATES in Chelsea. \nLastly\, when considering the provocations made in this collection of work\, we couldn’t help but conjure Gillian Waldo’s astonishing new short film from this past year\, Public Surfaces\, that explores the One Percent for Art program\, in which sculptures were placed in public schools in Baltimore City during the 1960s-1980s. \nWe’re quite happy to bring together a dialogue between Hoyer\, Jerinic\, Cannarozzo and Waldo led by one of our leading minds on our city environments\, the Editor-in-Chief at Urban Omnibus\, Mariana Mogilevich. We will together and with the help of these artists research and public practices unpack notions of presence and absence\, neglect\, stewardship\, the growthful\, the decaying\, and the fallow and ask how we might learn from these efforts and continue to cultivate our shared commons. \nCome on out early to explore the installation of photographs\, and stay to hear the ideas and intentions behind this work and to add your voice and perspective to this conversation! \nAlso\, be sure to come back for The Fallow Frames Biennial taking place July 13th and 14th\, where local artists are staging site-specific installations and performances in 25 abandoned tree beds across Ridgewood. \nThis public festival will invite visitors to wander the neighborhood as active participants in a larger narrative of renewal and artistic expression – and to spark conversations about urban ecology and these small neglected patches of the city’s landscape.

While many nurture trees\, plant life\, and vegetation\, a significant number are neglected or abandoned — overlooked corners in a city that typically puts great value on space. Ubiquitous yet enigmatic\, they appear like gaps or voids in the city’s concrete landscape with questions about their nature and purpose. In 2023\, Alexa Hoyer meticulously mapped and documented these spaces in various states of dereliction in her neighborhood of Ridgewood\, Queens\, capturing a unique perspective on the distinctive topography of New York City. The exposed earth\, sometimes weathered and strewn with debris\, becomes a canvas for contemplation\, unveiling new layers of meaning within the material of our everyday environments. The project inspired her to curate “Fallow Frames\,” a group exhibition exploring these pervasive yet mysterious spaces in terms of form\, culture\, and architecture.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text css=””] \nBeautification This Site by Katarina Jerinic\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Excerpt / Presentation\, 10 mins\, 2016[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Beautification This Site centers on a neglected\, leftover piece of the landscape Katarina Jerinic acquired through the Department of Transportation’s Adopt-A-Highway Program\, carved out between a BQE exit ramp and a congested Brooklyn street. Part earthwork\, part self-assigned residency\, the project called attention to the land itself and ways it is shaped by urban bureaucratic and natural forces\, passers-by\, and Jerinic’s own endless efforts to maintain it. \nThe standard issue DOT sign and the labor required of all volunteers (which became a kind of performance for passers-by) were just a part of the project. Jerinic also staged subtle interventions on the site in the form of plants and signs\, a guided tour\, a workshop and a projected slide show for cars stuck in traffic featuring images of trash found on site. Additionally\, Jerinic made a series of photographs\, videos and ephemera focused on ideas of wild spaces\, urban places\, and land art.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text css=””] \nFlax Estates by Lee Cannarozzo\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Presentation\, 10 mins[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Flax Estates were seven temporary earthworks located in the Chelsea neighborhood of New York City. The earthworks consisted of abandoned sidewalk plots that were tilled\, amended\, and planted with flax (Linum Usitatissimum). Most of the flax crops planted in the seven Flax Estates never made it to maturity; destroyed by either pigeons\, dogs\, or city workers. The few plants that did make it to maturity were transformed into a single paper-based nonsite. This project was an experiment in the production of locally sourced art materials and the transformation of neglected public micro spaces into ephemeral works of Land Art.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text css=””] \nPublic Surfaces by Gillian Waldo\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]16mm to digital\, 11 mins\, 2023[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]A film exploring the One Percent for Art program\, in which sculptures were placed in public schools in Baltimore City during the 1960s-1980s\, only for many of them to disappear.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text] \nProgram Duration: 43 mins \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs”][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_single_image image=”147742″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text] \nWatch the conversation between Presenter1\, Presenter2 and Presenter 3 on the UnionDocs’ Membership hub. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Watch” style=”outline-custom” outline_custom_color=”#ffffff” outline_custom_hover_background=”#adadcc” outline_custom_hover_text=”#0000cd” shape=”round” align=”center” css_animation=”bounceIn”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_separator][vc_column_text] \nBios \n[/vc_column_text][vc_separator][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”151639″ img_size=”full” css=””][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text css=””] \nAlexa Hoyer is a NYC-based German Visual Artist working in photography.

Also self- taught in psychology and architecture\, his most useful tools are doubt and contradiction. \nBorn 165 kilometers south of the US-Mexico border\, Dirdamal self-identifies as a gypsy and a nomad\, he lives in places with the understanding he will soon abandon them. He has lived for prolonged periods of his life in Arizona\, Bolivia\, the North of India\, the South of Mexico\, the North of Vietnam\, the West of Turkey\, the North of Albania and Rwanda. \nHe directs\, produces\, acts\, writes\, does camera and sound\, composes music\, edits\, and designs the sound for his own films. At 22 years old he grabbed a camera for the first time in his life and made his first accidental and feature length film that won him the Audience Award at the Sundance Film Festival. He has made 4 feature films thus far and has worked as an editor on 4 feature films of other filmmakers. \nWe’re delighted to have him back to UnionDocs after sharing his feature Death In Arizona almost exactly 8 years ago to the date for this forthcoming program where he first introduced us to his dazzling pursuit of questioning through filmmaking.  We’re thrilled to bring him back and bring folks to this latest singular work.

The program brings together films addressing the human condition through stories and mysterious occurrences connected to spirits and gods derived from West African and Afro-caribbean diasporic religions. Featuring Djibril Diop Mambety’s Le Franc (1994) and Kaveh Nabatian’s Sin La Habana (2020) and Kite Zo A (2023)\, the filmmakers present narratives rooted in temporal realities and contexts\, revealing cycles as well as contemporary incarnations of the human experience. Each film reflects different aspects of the socio-economic and political struggles faced by millions around the world due to the ongoing legacies of colonial subjugation. A focus of music and dance is a thread that further connects these works\, setting the stage for a stimulating visual\, sonic and somatic experience for viewers. \nThe in person screening at UnionDocs will present Nabatian’s Sin La Habana. In Nabatian’s Sin La Habana\, the protagonist\, Leonardo\, the star ballet dancer in his prestigious dance company\, and his partner\, Sara\, a lawyer\, are trying to escape Havana by any means. Over six decades of U.S. sanctions have eroded Cuban national infrastructures and compelled the society to live under strenuous conditions of food instability and extremely limited prospects. Nabatian based each character on Orishas\, divine spirits derived from the Yoruba religion in West Africa and part of Afro-caribbean religions\, including Santeria in Cuba. When the couple’s initial plan to seek asylum while Leonardo is traveling on tour derails\, they decide that he will seduce Nasim\, a recently divorced Iranian-Canadian tourist\, emigrate with her and bring over Sara afterwards. What initially appears to be a meeting of two deeply opposing cultures–Cuba and Iran–slowly unfolds into a revelation of reconciled values\, underlying shared political experiences\, and unexpected cultural and spiritual parallels. \nKaveh Nabatian will be in conversation with Programs and Communications Director at ArteEast Lila Nazemian after the screening. Come through! \nNote: TRACES OF THE UNKNOWN is a program curated by Lila Nazemian\, Programs and Communications Director at ArteEast\, and is co-presented by ArteEast and UnionDocs. This program is part of the legacy program Unpacking the ArteArchive\, which preserves and presents 20 years of film and video programming by ArteEast. Selections from the program will be screened in-person at UnionDocs on Thursday\,  July 18 followed by a Q&A with filmmaker Kaveh Nabatian. The full program will be screened online on artearchive.org from July 18 – 28.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_separator][vc_column_text] \nProgram \n[/vc_column_text][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text css=””] \nSin La Habana by Kaveh Nabatian\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]95 min.\, 2020\, Canada\, Cuba\, Spanish\, English\, Persian with English subtitles[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Leonardo and Sara\, a young Afro-Cuban couple\, are desperate to leave the island.

The program brings together films addressing the human condition through stories and mysterious occurrences connected to spirits and gods derived from West African and Afro-caribbean diasporic religions. Featuring Djibril Diop Mambety’s Le Franc (1994) and Kaveh Nabatian’s Sin La Habana (2020) and Kite Zo A (2023)\, the filmmakers present narratives rooted in temporal realities and contexts\, revealing cycles as well as contemporary incarnations of the human experience. Each film reflects different aspects of the socio-economic and political struggles faced by millions around the world due to the ongoing legacies of colonial subjugation. A focus of music and dance is a thread that further connects these works\, setting the stage for a stimulating visual\, sonic and somatic experience for viewers. \nThe in person screening at UnionDocs will present Nabatian’s Sin La Habana. In Nabatian’s Sin La Habana\, the protagonist\, Leonardo\, the star ballet dancer in his prestigious dance company\, and his partner\, Sara\, a lawyer\, are trying to escape Havana by any means. Over six decades of U.S. sanctions have eroded Cuban national infrastructures and compelled the society to live under strenuous conditions of food instability and extremely limited prospects. Nabatian based each character on Orishas\, divine spirits derived from the Yoruba religion in West Africa and part of Afro-caribbean religions\, including Santeria in Cuba. When the couple’s initial plan to seek asylum while Leonardo is traveling on tour derails\, they decide that he will seduce Nasim\, a recently divorced Iranian-Canadian tourist\, emigrate with her and bring over Sara afterwards. What initially appears to be a meeting of two deeply opposing cultures–Cuba and Iran–slowly unfolds into a revelation of reconciled values\, underlying shared political experiences\, and unexpected cultural and spiritual parallels. \nKaveh Nabatian will be in conversation with Programs and Communications Director at ArteEast Lila Nazemian after the screening. Come through! \nNote: TRACES OF THE UNKNOWN is a program curated by Lila Nazemian\, Programs and Communications Director at ArteEast\, and is co-presented by ArteEast and UnionDocs. This program is part of the legacy program Unpacking the ArteArchive\, which preserves and presents 20 years of film and video programming by ArteEast. Selections from the program will be screened in-person at UnionDocs on Thursday\,  July 18 followed by a Q&A with filmmaker Kaveh Nabatian. The full program will be screened online on artearchive.org from July 18 – 28.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_separator][vc_column_text] \nProgram \n[/vc_column_text][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text css=””] \nSin La Habana by Kaveh Nabatian\n[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]95 min.\, 2020\, Canada\, Cuba\, Spanish\, English\, Persian with English subtitles[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=””]Leonardo and Sara\, a young Afro-Cuban couple\, are desperate to leave the island.

The BDC is excited to collaborate with the legendary Puerto Rican social club Toñita’s as part of the Festival’s expansion. We’ll feature screenings of the award-winning documentaries “Los Sures” and “Toñita’s”. \n“Los Sures”: Diego Echeverria’s film portrays the Southside community’s struggles with poverty\, drugs\, gang violence\, crime\, racial tension\, and inadequate resources. It also celebrates the resilience and culture of the largely Puerto Rican and Dominican residents. \n“Toñita’s”: Is a documentary portrait of the last Puerto Rican social club in South Williamsburg\, Brooklyn\, featuring its regulars and the beloved community matriarch Maria Toñita. Produced by UnionDocs Collaborative Studio. \nMarking 50 years as a beloved community anchor\, Toñita’ Caribbean Social Club stands as the last of its kind in Williamsburg’s Southside\, a neighborhood almost entirely transformed. Founded by Maria Antonia Cay\, affectionately known as Toñita\, the club not only serves as a window to the past but also bridges larger themes of migration and displacement experienced by Latin American communities within and beyond New York City.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs”][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_single_image image=”147742″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text] \nWatch the conversation between Presenter1\, Presenter2 and Presenter 3 on the UnionDocs’ Membership hub. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Watch” style=”outline-custom” outline_custom_color=”#ffffff” outline_custom_hover_background=”#adadcc” outline_custom_hover_text=”#0000cd” shape=”round” align=”center” css_animation=”bounceIn”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row disable_element=”yes”][vc_column offset=”vc_hidden-xs”][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_separator][vc_column_text] \nFrom the Event \n[/vc_column_text][vc_separator][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_media_grid style=”pagination” items_per_page=”1″ element_width=”12″ arrows_design=”vc_arrow-icon-arrow_01_left” arrows_position=”outside” arrows_color=”white” loop=”yes” item=”136647″ grid_id=”vc_gid:1720635718969-1b6bd503-94de-4″][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Come through to catch a sneak peek from our brilliant Summer Doc Lab artists as they take a moment to practice their project pitches with a supportive audience. Here you will have plenty of time to mingle and meet in the wider UNDO community. \nFolks often ask what exactly goes on in these labs at UNDO? Here’s your chance to find out what’s going on inside. Each artist and project was selected from an incredibly competitive pool of applicants\, and participants are joining us from around the world — Bogotá\, Seoul\, Florence\, Taipei\, London\, Quito\, and some from right here in NYC! \nAfter weeks of deep focus and work\, we’re inviting you to meet and celebrate this incredible group for how far they’ve come.\nPitching a doc is usually a scary\, competitive business\, but does it have to be? To make things extra fun\, we decided to turn the tables just a little: Grab a bingo card at the bar to engage in a friendly competition with fellow audience members. We’ll see who can listen along keenly enough to circle their way to Bingo stardom and win some grand prizes!\nCome on out to learn about this work while it’s in early phases of development. These folks are looking for supporters\, team members and more\, so it may be the start of a beautiful collaboration.\nDoors open at 7:30\, show starts ~8:00 with celebratory festivities to follow![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_column_text css=””] \nProgram Duration: 80 mins \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs”][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_single_image image=”147742″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text] \nWatch the conversation between Presenter1\, Presenter2 and Presenter 3 on the UnionDocs’ Membership hub. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Watch” style=”outline-custom” outline_custom_color=”#ffffff” outline_custom_hover_background=”#adadcc” outline_custom_hover_text=”#0000cd” shape=”round” align=”center” css_animation=”bounceIn”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][vc_separator][vc_column_text css=””] \nMeet the Summer Lab! \n[/vc_column_text][vc_separator][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”151936″ img_size=”full” css=””][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text css=””]Tobi Akinde\n(he/him) \nBorn in Abeokuta\, Tobi studied Law and German at the University of Ibadan.

SUMMARY:Transmitting Live from Babylon: a Punky / Reggae Audiovisual Mixer

Featuring live dj-ing\, vj-ing\, and scenes from the upcoming film Live to DIY- an experimental document of an underground hardcore music community in New York City over the last decade plus. \nTRANSMITTING LIVE FROM BABYLON is a party/ screening (a screening party?) with live music\, sound artists and Dj’s\, and featuring a media performance by Art Jones using sampled archival and commercial footage\, texts and original digital video and animation accompanied by an experimental dub\, hip-hop and electronic noise mix. Working with digital and analog audio/video sources\, Jones will create an abstract narrative collage about three perennially popular topics: love\, war and money. \nThe screening will include a work-in-progress from the upcoming feature-length documentary  Live To DIY: about the NYC hardcore band Rebelmatic and the struggle to be a truly independent working musician in a political economy that promotes a myth of celebrity\, fame\, and ‘making it’. Also featuring short films and classic music videos by artists and filmmakers.\n \nRebelmatic will be in attendance and play live alongside Art Jones performance. Rebelmatic’s ability to connect with audiences across various genres and musical landscapes is truly remarkable. Their shared stages with an impressive array of artists\, spanning from punk rock to hip-hop and beyond\, showcase their versatility and wide-ranging appeal. They have performed alongside bands like Zulu\, Soul Glo\, End It\, and Weedeater\, as well as iconic figures such as Eugene Hutz of Gogol Bordello\, DMC of Run-D.M.C.\, Slick Rick\, H.R. of the Bad Brains\, Angelo Moore of Fishbone\, the GZA\, and Schoolly D\, among many other. \nMoreover\, Rebelmatic’s commitment to the DIY ethos is evident in their participation in a documentary about DIY culture in New York City for Dr. Martens during the pandemic. Their dedication to the DIY movement is also recognized in the book “Black Punk Now” by Chris H. Terry and James Spooner\, the founder of Afro-Punk. Additionally\, Rebelmatic has been featured in “Culture Crush Editions – Presents: The Way WE WERE\,” showcasing the photographs by Destiny Mata\, also known as The People’s Photographer. These publications further cement their influence and significance in the punk and broader cultural communities. \nCome through for a night of music\, history and good times![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_separator][vc_column_text css=””] \nRun of show \n[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_separator][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]8:00: Doors open\n8:30: NIT SU J set\n9:00: Screening work-in-progress documentary LIVE to DIY\n9:30: Special Performance by REBELMATIC\n10:00: Word\, Sound\, Power films: Miah Artola\, Shayma Aziz\, Charlie\nAhearn & More\n10:30: Kaila Burke-Ozuna set\n11:00: Akeema Zane set\n11:30: subt.le set\n12:00: Art Jones- Transmitting Live from Babylon set[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column offset=”vc_hidden-lg vc_hidden-md vc_hidden-sm vc_hidden-xs”][vc_empty_space height=”5px”][vc_single_image image=”147742″ img_size=”full”][vc_column_text] \nWatch the conversation between Presenter1\, Presenter2 and Presenter 3 on the UnionDocs’ Membership hub. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Watch” style=”outline-custom” outline_custom_color=”#ffffff” outline_custom_hover_background=”#adadcc” outline_custom_hover_text=”#0000cd” shape=”round” align=”center” css_animation=”bounceIn”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”15px”][vc_separator][vc_column_text] \nBios \n[/vc_column_text][vc_separator][vc_empty_space height=”30px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_single_image image=”151747″ img_size=”full” css=””][/vc_column][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_column_text css=””]Art Jones is an artist working with Installation\, the moving image\, photography\, and audio.
