\u201cWhy Gwarayos Sing: Conservation of the Cultural and Natural Environment through Musical Ethno-education.\u201d<\/a><\/b> By Ed Wolf, Ethnomusicology and Derrick Hindery, International Studies and Geography.<\/p>\nStudies have shown that one territory entitled to a community of the Gwarayo Indigenous peoples of Bolivia has the most conserved forest in the region, suggesting that the Gwarayo have cultural knowledge that empowers their community to engage holistically with their ecological surroundings. At least one Gwarayo leader from this community is interested in making sure that the traditional music and dance that has helped impart these values to community members is documented and becomes part of a formal education program for Gwarayo youth, directed by Gwarayos themselves. Derrick Hindery, associate professor of international studies, and Juan Eduardo Wolf, assistant professor of ethnomusicology, are embarking on a project to assist the Gwarayos make this ethno-education project a reality. This CLLAS grant supports the first step in developing the curriculum for this program by sponsoring the visit by Hindery and Wolf to the region to facilitate workshops with the Gwarayo elders. The workshops will be designed to understand what is important to these elders and what they would like the project to document. In turn, Hindery and Wolf believe that all of humanity will benefit from this work, as all are interconnected through ecological concerns. Preserving the forests on Gwarayo homelands helps to ensure all global peoples have greater access to clean air, water, and ecological diversity.<\/p>\n
\u2022 \u201cVisual Clave: The Expression of the Latino\/a Experience Through Album Cover Art: 1940-1990.\u201d<\/b> Philip Scher, Anthropology, and Cheryl Hartup, JSMA.
\nAbstract: <\/strong>An exhibition at the Jordan Schnitzer Museum of Art, January 19, 2019 \u2013 April 21, 2019. Organized by Philip W. Scher, UO Divisional Dean for Social Sciences and Professor of Anthropology and Folklore, and Pablo Yglesias, a Cuban-American musician, historian, writer, artist and DJ based in Northampton, Massachusetts, \u201cVisual Clave\u201d investigates the evolution of Latin music album cover art with particular focus on the United States market. It pays critical attention to issues of identity, race, gender, sexuality violence, protest, and migration through depictions of Latinx culture, with an emphasis on historical context and the aesthetic choices of visual artists. The exhibition weaves a compelling narrative of resistance, self-determination, cultural pride, and social commentary through the display of 78 RPM album jackets from the 1930s and 40s, LP covers from the 1960s-90s, and original artworks used to create the final packaging. The exhibition\u2019s premise is that the record jacket is a visual carrier of the shifting concerns and challenges facing diverse Latinx populations at various times and in different regions of the U.S.<\/p>\n2018-19 CLLAS Inaugural Latinx Studies Seed Grant<\/h4>\n
