Next meeting February 26th 2010, 7-9pm - Catherine Lord
A warm welcome to the next NPBIAC gathering, Friday, February 26th, 7-9 pm. We are proud to have Catherine Lord as host for this meeting.
Catherine Lord is an employee of the state of California. Having come of age in the 1970s, she’s stumped by the current fascination with the decade. She doesn’t know how to be ironized, mediated, resituated, contextualized, etc. etc. etc. and at the same time inhabit her memories of anger and of unlearning, among other things. She needs help.

This occasion is open to 20 participants and you need to RSVP to nobodyputsbabyinacorner2009@live.com to be able to join, please do so before Feb. 26th at noon.
Join us for this unforgettable evening!
best,
NPBIAC/Johanna and Malin

Next meeting February 15th 2010, 7-9pm - Barbara Steveni
A warm welcome to the next NPBIAC gathering, Monday, February 15th, 7-9 pm. We are proud to have Barbara Steveni as host for this meeting.

Barbara Steveni conceived and co-founded the Artist Placement Group (APG), in London in 1966 with a vanguard of artists, including Ian Breakwell, David Hall, John Latham, Anna Ridley and Jeffrey Shaw working in emerging fields of Multi-Media and Conceptual Art of that time. Steveni’s innovative concept, based on a more holistic and intuitive view of Art than was current at the time, would take another 20 years to enter the mainstream. APG, later renamed O+I, acted as the precursor to current notions of ‘Artist in Residence’ and Public Art programmes.
Steveni is currently active as artist, curator and lecturer, in particular addressing Art and the ‘new’ Economics, Art and Business and ‘Socially Engaged Art Practice’ from and on behalf of the artist voice. Additionally, Steveni is engaged in a personal work under the title; I AM AN ARCHIVE, tracing through a series of walks, revisits and interviews, her life and role within APG / O+I, in relation to today’s circumstance, and to current and future art practice.
This occasion is open to 20 participants and you need to RSVP to nobodyputsbabyinacorner2009@live.com to be able to join, please do so before Feb. 14th at noon.

ENCORE: Next meeting January 27th, 7-9 pm - New Feminist Economy
It's so good we're doing it again!
We are very proud and happy to let you know that the meeting on Wednesday 20th is fully booked. But the New Feminist Economy group - Dana, Jordan, Tia and MPA have offered to host a second gathering next Wednesday on January 27th, 7-9pm.
"if i had a hammer i would smash patriarchy"
If first-wave feminism of the early twentieth century demanded the right to vote, and if second-wave feminism of the 1960s demanded equal economic opportunities and sexual self-determination; then, what are the demands that would propel a tidal wave of current feminisms? What could feminist theories of 'difference' offer a strategic need to unite demands?
This overarching question of strategy will motivate this night's gathering. Questions of domestic labor, social reproduction, and alternative structures of economic exchange will be put to use in trying to develop a praxis of difference and a critique of disparity. What can political economy learn from feminist critiques of phalocentric language? What is the role of negativity in juggling the anti-patriarchal position and an anti-capitalist one? Taking into consideration the tensions between demands for recognition and demands for redistribution, identity and class, we will ask ourselves and others: as feminists, what precisely are we working for?
So, if you want to work it, or you want to work for it, or want to work it out..... come on out.
