SUMMARY:Pınar Öğrenci: Glück auf in Deutschland (Harvard Art Museum)
DESCRIPTION:Reflect on memory\, labor\, and belonging in this first major U.S. exhibition by Pınar Öğrenci. \nGlück auf in Deutschland marks the first major exhibition in the United States by Berlin-based artist and filmmaker Pınar Öğrenci (b. 1973). The artist’s work invites viewers to question what has been remembered or erased while imagining a future grounded in justice\, equality\, and collective healing and shaped by layered experiences of survival\, resistance\, and resilience. \nThe exhibition includes Öğrenci’s 2024 film Glück auf in Deutschland (Good Luck in Germany)\, which addresses the construction of postwar German identity in the Ruhrgebiet\, a heavily industrialized region known for coal mining and steel production. Five related collages are also on view\, reimagining the bodies of workers and their families within the Ruhr landscape and its architecture. Öğrenci’s use of the phrase Glück auf — a common way that miners wish one another a safe return after their physically grueling and dangerous work underground — resonates with the experiences of immigrant communities in present-day Germany facing right-wing extremism. \nThe photographs in the film and collages were drawn largely from the Ruhr Museum archive in Essen\, Germany\, and include works by artists from the 1950s and ’60s. In her interventions\, Öğrenci reveals how photography helped shape a homogenous\, male-centered identity for both the region and the German nation; she seeks instead to present a more inclusive visual record. Öğrenci’s work is displayed alongside historical photographs from the Busch-Reisinger Museum’s collection. \nCurated by Lynette Roth\, Daimler Curator of the Busch-Reisinger Museum. \nThis exhibition is supported by the Charles Kuhn Endowment Fund in the Busch-Reisinger Museum. Modern and contemporary art programs at the Harvard Art Museums are made possible in part by generous support from the Emily Rauh Pulitzer and Joseph Pulitzer\, Jr.\, Fund for Modern and Contemporary Art.

SUMMARY:The Way We Never Were: The American Professional Photographers Collection (Harvard Art Museum)
DESCRIPTION:How did photography construct cultural memories of postwar America? \nLife in the United States after World War II is often remembered as a time of prosperity\, stability\, and ease. The Way We Never Were examines the role that professional photography played in shaping this familiar image. Photographers working on commission for private clients\, businesses\, and civic organizations produced portraits and promotional images that did more than document everyday life—they staged and refined it\, helping define how Americans saw themselves and their nation. \nDrawn from the Harvard Art Museums’ American Professional Photographers Collection\, this exhibition brings renewed attention to a vast archive assembled in the 1970s by sociologist and curator Barbara P. Norfleet. The archive\, comprising more than 20\,000 photographs from studios active between the late 1930s and the early 1960s across the United States\, depicts weddings\, school events\, corporate gatherings\, and other social rituals—what Norfleet described as a “unique and valuable record of American life.” \nThe exhibition traces how these commissioned photographs helped create a shared visual understanding of mid-century American culture\, pointing not only to what was included\, but also to what was left out of the photographic record. Organized around themes such as the postwar economic boom\, the rise of suburbia\, cultural conformity\, and growing struggles for equal rights\, the photographs in the exhibition reflect broader social tensions around race\, gender\, class\, and belonging. By considering the tools\, techniques\, and commercial priorities that made these idealized images possible\, The Way We Never Were examines how postwar professional photography shaped an enduring vision of the past that continues to inform how it is understood today. \nCurated by Audrey Sands\, Richard L. Menschel Associate Curator of Photography\, and Madison Brown\, John R. and Barbara Robinson Family Curatorial Fellow in Photography\, with Bridget Hinz\, Senior Curatorial Assistant for Special Exhibitions and Publications\, Division of Modern and Contemporary Art\, Harvard Art Museums. \nFunding for the exhibition and related programming was provided by the John R. and Barbara Robinson Family Fund for Photography and the M. Victor Leventritt Lecture Series Endowment Fund. Modern and contemporary art programs at the Harvard Art Museums are made possible in part by generous support from the Emily Rauh Pulitzer and Joseph Pulitzer\, Jr.\, Fund for Modern and Contemporary Art.

SUMMARY:On Location: Drawing the Outdoors (Harvard Art Museum)
DESCRIPTION:Discover how an intimate and reflective relationship with nature can shape artistic vision. \nMeander through visions of the outdoors to discover how landscapes offered 19th-century European artists freedom\, renewal\, and rediscovery beyond the pressures of society.

Turner\, John Constable\, Gustave Courbet\, Edouard Manet\, Berthe Morisot\, Paul Cézanne\, and Vincent van Gogh\, among many others\, On Location: Drawing the Outdoors includes approximately 140 sketches\, watercolors\, and pastels in a showcase of creativity devoted to and inspired by nature. \nOrganized into 10 thematic sections\, the exhibition unfolds like a series of trails through the landscape\, tracing changing perceptions\, the rise of environmentalism\, and shifting national and artistic identities. Along the way\, it introduces the techniques\, formats\, and functions of outdoor drawings and watercolors\, showing how artists employed them to interpret the countryside and portray sites of natural beauty. On Location: Drawing the Outdoors offers visitors a space to reflect on how the experiences and motivations of 19th-century artists still resonate today. \nAn accompanying exhibition catalogue provides an expansive look at the topic through 5 panoramic essays and 10 focused thematic introductions\, by contributors with a range of interests and perspectives. \nCurated by Joachim Homann\, Maida and George Abrams Curator of Drawings\, with Meghan Grady\, Curatorial Assistant for Special Exhibitions and Publications\, Division of European and American Art\, and Susanne Bartels\, Stanley H.

SUMMARY:TCS presents: Eddie Pepitone
DESCRIPTION:Eddie Pepitone is a master of the dark art of comedy. Hailed as a modern day cross between Jackie Gleason\, Don Rickles and Eckhart Tolle. Eddie is a force of nature on stage\, switching between social rage and self-doubt. His shows are an energetic combo of calm and chaos\, blue-collar angst and sardonic enlightenment. Few comedians working today channel the power of the rant better than Eddie Pepitone.

SUMMARY:The Clements Brothers
DESCRIPTION:The Clements Brothers are George and Charles Clements\, identical twins from New England. They’ve been playing and writing music together for as long as they can remember and ‘The Clements Brothers’ marks their first project together since playing in the internationally touring grass-roots band\, ‘The Lonely Heartstring Band’ with whom they put out two albums on Rounder Records. With roots\, rock\, bluegrass\, jazz\, and classical influences\, George (on guitar) and Charles (on bass) aim to capture their singer-songwriter sensibilities in a unique blended voice\, at once enthralling and intimate\, groovy and serene. They are joined by drummer Mike Harmon\, who joined the band after an impromptu late night set at the Ossipee Music festival\, and adds his unique roots-conscious musicality to the group’s evolving sound. The trio is a fusion of each member’s unique musical journey\, and the result is music all its own\, filled with vocal harmonies\, instrumental virtuosity\, and a genuine love of song.

SUMMARY:Jorie Graham at Harvard Book Store
DESCRIPTION:Harvard Book Store welcomes Jorie Graham—Boylston Chair Emerita at Harvard University and the Pulitzer-prize winning poet—for a discussion of her new poetry collection\, Killing Spree. She will be joined in conversation by Stephanie Burt—Donald P. and Katherine B. Loker Professor of English at Harvard University and the author of fourteen books of poetry and literary criticism\, including Super Gay Poems and Don’t Read Poetry. \nAbout Killing Spree\nA new collection from the Pulitzer Prize winner Jorie Graham\, whose “great body of work . . . has so much in it\, more of life and of the world than that of almost any other poet now writing” (The New York Times). \nIn a review of her first book\, Hybrids of Plants and Ghosts (1980)\, The New York Times heralded Jorie Graham as a “poet of large ambitions and reckless music.” In the fifteen collections that have followed\, she has remade the lyric’s ability to capture our recklessly disintegrating and accelerating daily realities. In Killing Spree\, perhaps the most unflinching book of her long career\, Graham looks at how the human spirit—in the face of everything that threatens it—navigates the rapids of extreme change. These newly spare poems explore\, with exquisite formal precision\, how we might remain intact in the face of aberrant conditions set to destroy our world. Could we lose our humanity\, these poems ask. Can it be taken from us\, Will we surrender it without resistance? \nExtraordinary and haunting\, Killing Spree reads like a survival manual guiding us deftly through the cataracts of a runaway climate\, tipping-point violence\, and out-of-control technology\, into a terrain where a defiant\, powerful imagination (and love) of the world reveals itself. Here is a poet truly at the height of her powers.

DESCRIPTION:The Sea Hag Restaurant & Bar and The Barrett Anderson Band are excited to announce a new weekly series\, Blues & Roots Wednesdays\, bringing live music back home to historic Harvard Square. \n“Cambridge\, our fair city\, and I share deep roots\, and I’m thrilled to find a new musical home at The Sea Hag\,” says Massachusetts-based singer/guitarist\, Barrett Anderson.  “Good music and good food are two of our most basic\, fundamental needs\,” he continues\, “What great joy they give us.  I am so happy to revel in that every Wednesday night with my dearest musical friends\, and Kari and her incredible team at The Sea Hag.  We go way back together\, and I can’t imagine all the fun we have ahead.” \nIndeed\, Anderson has strong connections to this scene.  He remembers: “My first professional experience came when I was 15\, backing up Muddy Waters’ band alums Pinetop Perkins and Bob Margolin at the original House of Blues on Winthrop Street.  A few months after that I began busking\, you’d often find me in Brattle Square or by the pit.  This would have been mid/late 90s.”  While still a teen\, Anderson was a member of The Monster Mike Welch Band and Ronnie Earl & The Broadcasters (“Ronnie was my guitar hero.  Then he was my teacher\, then my boss.  Now he’s my musical Father\,” Anderson says)\, before eventually starting The Barrett Anderson Band in 2007. \nAnderson won a Boston Music Award (2013 Blues Artist of the Year)\, was on the Billboard charts (2020’s live album Hynoboogie spent 3 weeks on the Billboard Blues Album chart\, peaking at #6)\, and was nominated for a Blues Music Award (2023 Band of the Year with Anthony Geraci & The Boston Blues All-Stars)\, all the while playing nationally\, internationally\, and locally in Cambridge and the greater Boston area. \nIn addition to the musical roots\, long-time locals may recognize Anderson from a decade serving tables and bartending at The Sea Hag’s sister establishment\, Grendel’s Den\, or from Abodeon\, the mid-century modern shop started by his family. \nMusic starts every Wednesday at 6:30 at The Sea Hag Restaurant & Bar\, 49 Mt Auburn St\, and there’s no cover.  “We start while people are dining\,” Anderson states.  “It forces us to play dynamically\, dig deep\, and explore the space\, creating music that doesn’t demand attention but rewards it.”  He adds with a grin “We do get to turn up and demand attention too\, we just have to time it right.” \nJoining Anderson (vocals and guitar) are Paul Loranger (upright and electric bass)\, and Joey Pafumi (drums and percussion).  “This is the core of The Barrett Anderson Band\,” Anderson explains.  “The full band has wonderful additional musicians\, but for this gig tight and light was right.  This gives us the flexibility to learn material fast and improvise easily on the spot\, allowing for regular guests and specially themed evenings.  We’re making sure that each week is rewarding and unique.” \nThe Barrett Anderson Band are digging deep into their Cambridge roots for the first string of shows\, featuring local roots rock king Dennis Brennan as a special guest. \nBlues & Roots Wednesdays at The Sea Hag Restaurant & Bar\n49 Mt Auburn St\, Cambridge MA 02139\nMusic starts @ 6:30\nWednesday nights \n  \nWhat critics say about Barrett Anderson \nFrom Jay Clestowski\, Disciples of Sound: “Barrett Anderson continues to carry the torch that J. Geils left behind…  HypnoBoogie demonstrates that some of the best grooves come out of the ‘dirty water’ and that’s where they belong.” \nFrom JD Nash\, American Blues Scene: “This Bean Town foursome packs enough raw energy on stage to power the whole of New England.” \nFrom Chris Spector\, Midwest Record: “Anderson has the chops and spark to make a real statement his own way.  Hot stuff.” \nFrom Jay Miller\, The Patriot Ledger: “HypnoBoogie… is the kind of refreshingly vibrant\, genre-crossing album that is a throwback to the days when rock ‘n’ roll acknowledged its roots in blues\, but ventured wherever the spirit took it.” \nWhat critics say about The Sea Hag Restaurant & Bar \nFrom Sheryl Julian\, Boston Globe: “Harvard Square’s Sea Hag is the little sister to Grendel’s Den…” \nFrom Kara Baskin\, Boston Globe: “The team behind Grendel’s Den in Harvard Square has opened Sea Hag\, replacing The Bouthouse.  Wash ashore for fish and chips\, Jamaican beef patties\, arancini\, crab dip\, raw bar delights\, and muffins…” \nFrom Boston Restaurant Talk: “The Sea Hag opens in the former Boathouse space in Harvard Square.” \nFrom Marc Levy and Rónán Fitzgerald: “Grendel’s Den owner Kari Kuelzer is expanding in Harvard Square\, taking over the Boathouse location to open The Sea Hag Restaurant & Bar.” \nwww.barrettandersonband.com\nwww.seahag02138.com

SUMMARY:Gillian Daniels at Harvard Book Store
DESCRIPTION:Harvard Book Store welcomes Gillian Daniels—poet and short fiction author whose works have appeared in Nightmare Magazine\, Strange Horizons\, and other publications—for a discussion of her debut novel\, Jenny Will Eat You Now: A Meat Cute. She will be joined in conversation by Bracken MacLeod—acclaimed horror writer and the author of Closing Costs and Let Not Your Sorrow Die. \nAbout Jenny Will Eat You Now\nSometimes you want to eat the ones you love…right? In this gorgeous horror-romance\, river monster Jenny Greenteeth stalks a handsome academic through Boston after a chance encounter leaves her hungry and curious about the world\, she’s been hiding from. \nJenny Greenteeth prefers to keep her own company beneath the streets of Boston\, where she’s lived for hundreds of years. With a conviction that she is far superior to humans—who are petty\, dangerous\, and fragile—she has no qualms about satisfying her hunger with their flesh. That is\, until she comes face to face with a human man who\, for the first time\, she doesn’t want to eat (but also…she kind of does). Confused by these conflicting feelings\, Jenny is intrigued.
