JUDSON MEMORIAL CHURCH announces the launch of start a new arts series tackling vital contemporary issues with WAR CULTURE Thursday, April 3,2003
stART, a new multi-disciplinary arts series addressing the difficult issues currently facing Americans, with WARCULTURE, a one-night-only arts event on Thursday, April 3rd. Doors open at 7:00pm. Judson Church is located at 55 Washington Square South (at Thompson Street). In addition, the visualand installation art works from the show will remain on display Friday, Saturday and Sunday, April 4-6, from 1:00 PM - 6:00 PM. Both the performance and the exhibition are FREE to the general public.

Deeply frustrated by the U.S. rush to war, concerned artists from all disciplines are ready and eager to respond. WAR CULTURE is the forum to do just that, but more than traditional "protest art" about war, the works of WAR CULTURE go to the roots of the problem  roots that may be social, economic, psychological or spiritual.
WAR CULTURE will feature the diverse performance talents of choreographers Jill Sigman and Renata Celichowska, cartoonist Peter Kuper, actors Tannis Kowalchuk and Leese Walker, and comedian/performance artist Zeroboy, as well as a special greeting from the first lady of downtown performance, Martha Wilson (Franklin Furnace), appearing as Barbara Bush. War-themed animation from Robert Smigel and Wachtenheim/Marianetti (SNL TV Funhouse Cartoons) will be screened and the space will come alive with the visual art of Mark Beard, George Boorujy, Rachael Cole, Nathan Fox, John Jodzio, Sabrina Jones, Holly Laws, Ben Marra, Lauren Simkin Berke, Anthony Wilson, Aaron Zimmerman and others. A live DJ will spin before and between performances, and the evening culminates in "15 Minutes of Citizenry":an offering of concrete actions by The Love Everybody Players that every audience member can do in 15 minutes

Judson Memorial Church has a long tradition of providing a supportive outlet and venue for provocative art and outreach in times of crisis.
stART's core group of organizers represent a new generation of artist-activists inspired by this rich heritage. They are: Ward Sutton, syndicated political cartoonist (Schlock 'n' Roll) and animator; Karen Sherman, performance artist and Judson Church administrator; Joel Hinman, documentary writer and producer of industrial films; director andproducer Ralph Lewis and producer and actress Catherine Porter, co-artistic directors of Peculiar Works Project; and Sue Unkenholz, event producerand manager of SuttonImpactStudio.
stART's goal is to present quarterly events that focus on a single issue in thoughtful, complex ways through art, dance, music, spoken word, and multi-media theater. Issues for future events include: "Breaking News"(has it broken down?),"What's Left?"(what is and what remains of liberalism)and "June Wedding" (The spiritual, sexual and political forces behind marriage)  all with a specific "15 Minutes of Citizenry".
stART ... provoking.
stART ... reacting.
stART ... inspiring.
stART ... the conversation.

Judson Church
Thursday April 3rd

We invite artists and others around the world to gather on Moratorium Day, March 5, in their local museums which exhibit ancient near eastern art. In New York, this action will take place from 9:30 to 5:30 in the Assyrian gallery at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
We will respectfully draw with pencil on paper the art around us, which was created as early as five thousand years ago in the land now known as Iraq, where urban life and the written word originated.
Our goal is to call attention to all of the civilizations which have flourished in Mesopotamia under so many names and cultures: Sumer, Babylonia, Assyria, the Arab/Muslim Abbasid Empire and contemporary Iraq.
This is a peaceful vigil, made in protest against US foreign policy under George W. Bush. If someone asks what we are doing, we will speak quietly with them and explain our position, then continue to draw. We will keep in mind the intention: to pay homage to this land, culture and people, which our government is planning to destroy. We are deeply concerned about an imminent threat to human life, and to the memory and history embedded
in all of Mesopotamia, modern Iraq.
Please spread the word to everyone you know anywhere who is an artist or a lover of art! If this action takes place in other cities, please let us know all about it, and if you have pictures, we would love to see them.
Met Event Committee, Artists Against the War aawnion@hotmail.com

Note: The Metropolitan Museum of Art only allows us to draw with pencil on paper, so don't bring pen and ink. You can use cameras, but not flash. If the Near Eastern galleries are closed, we will convene in the Islamic rooms.

Dear friends,
If you oppose this bloody war, I urge you to participate in the mass civil disobedience planned for the morning of March 27. This is the time. Like Gandhi, King, Chavez, like the mass movements in the South during the 1960's and in eastern Europe during the 1980's, we can make a difference if we fill the jails. Join us....
