Bemis Center For Contemporary Arts

Using Bemis Center’s current exhibition <a href="https://www.bemiscenter.org/exhibitions/i-dont-know-you-like-that" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">I don’t know you like that: The Bodywork of Hospitality</a>﻿ ﻿as an entry point, this series of discussions offers Omaha an opportunity to share ideas and create community together. Co-facilitated by Denise Chapman and Zhomontee Watson, this conversation seeks to connect the exhibitions with issues directly impacting Omaha’s social, political, and artistic landscape. Formatted as an informal discussion and blurring the boundary of “expert” and “audience,” Public Assembly harnesses the creativity and vision of the community to hold space for collective meaning-making.Proof of COVID-19 vaccination or negative COVID-19 test and face coverings are required. <a href="https://www.bemiscenter.org/visit" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Read more about our COVID Safety Policy here</a>.Image: Oliver Husain &amp; Kerstin Schroedinger, DNCB (still), 2021, multi-channel moving-image installation with sound, installation dimensions variable, 16mm film: 5:30 minutes, video: 9:50 minutes (Courtesy of the artists).I don’t know you like that: The Bodywork of Hospitality and its related public programs are supported, in part, by The Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, Canada Council for the Arts, Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec, Humanities Nebraska, Institut français-Paris, Nebraska Arts Council and Nebraska Cultural Endowment, Omaha Steaks, and UNO Medical Humanities/Ted Kooser Center for Health Humanities.
