Brendan Fernandes’s Moving Through is a site-specific work that will be performed by six dancers at the Raclin Murphy Museum of Art at the University of Notre Dame. Fernandes intends the work to dissolve the boundaries among visual art, dancers, and audience members. The performance will take place in the Museum atrium and throughout the galleries; visitors can expect to see dancers in the galleries as they respond to a dynamic score composed collaboratively by students. Rather than stage a stationary performance, dancers will move through the Museum, allowing visitors to watch the fluid performance and come and go as they wish. The work unfolds as a meditative act, inviting an extended, slow process of looking, sensing, and interpreting. Audience members may stumble upon a dancer by chance or follow their movement as they respond to an artwork—transforming observation into an immersive experience. By integrating movement, stillness, and sonic interplay, Fernandes reimagines the Museum as a living, breathing space where art and dance converge, challenging how we see, experience, and interpret both art forms. The performance will invite audiences into an active, meditative process of seeing, experiencing, and engaging with art in new and transformative ways. Dancers Katlin Bourgeois Hanna DiLorenzoPrincess Gates Kara Hunsinger Brian Martinez Morgan McDaniel SoundClaire Staples Read more about the performance of Moving Through here. Brendan Fernandes is the 2025 artist-in-residence in the Notre Dame Initiative on Race and Resilience. The site-specific commissioned piece Moving Through is made possible through collaboration among, and support from the Initiative on Race and Resilience, the DeBartolo Performing Arts Center, and the Raclin Murphy Museum of Art. Brendan Fernandes (b. 1979, Nairobi, Kenya) is an internationally recognized Canadian artist working at the intersection of dance and visual arts. Rooted in collaboration and fostering solidarity, Fernandes’s projects take hybrid forms to address issues of race, queer culture, migration, protest, and other forms of collective movement. He is a graduate of the Whitney Independent Study Program (2007) and a recipient of a Robert Rauschenberg Fellowship (2014). In 2010, he was shortlisted for the Sobey Art Award and received a prestigious 2017 Canada Council New Chapters grant. Fernandes is also the recipient of the Platform Award (2024), the Artadia Award (2019), a Smithsonian Artist Research Fellowship (2020), and a Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation grant (2019). His projects have been shown at the 2019 Whitney Biennial (New York); the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum (New York); the Museum of Modern Art (New York); the Getty Museum (Los Angeles); the National Gallery of Canada (Ottawa); MAC (Montreal), among a great many others. He is an Associate Professor in the Department of Art Theory and Practice at Northwestern University. Fernandes is represented by Monique Meloche Gallery in Chicago and Susan Inglett Gallery in New York. Recent and upcoming projects include performances and solo presentations at the Pulitzer Arts Foundation (St. Louis), MCA Denver, The Fabric Workshop (Philadelphia), and Prospect 6 (New Orleans). https://raclinmurphymuseum.nd.edu/visit/events/2025/04/13/moving-through-a-site-specific-performance-presented-by-brendan-fernandes/

The Center for Italian Studies is pleased to host a discussion and workshop with the poet Pietro Federico, author of La Maggioranza Delle Stelle  (Edizioni Ensemble, 2020). This collection of poems has recently been published in English by St. Augustine's Press with the title, Most of the Stars, and many of these translations have already featured in several of the best American literary magazines, including American Poetry Review, Hopkins Review, Denver Quarterly, Gradiva, Literary Matters, Journal of Italian Translation, Exchanges, Rattle, Azonal, On the Seawall, and other magazines. The muse of Most of the Stars is the United States of America, her people and landscapes. In fifty poems (one for each state), Federico plumbs the depths of the historic, geographic, political, emotional, psychological, and metaphysical realms through a variety of voices. This book is unlike any other collection of poems. Federico is fascinated by the American spirit, to use the words of Giancarlo Pontiggia, "an America made up of stories as raw, rough, endless and inconclusive as the immense landscapes in which they took place." In Most of the Stars the linguistic power of the Italian literary tradition and the contemporary vernacular combine to articulate an idiosyncratic understanding of the New World—the breadth of its cities, its towns, its frontiers and interiors. Federico’s deeply spiritual understanding of our own American personalities and histories offers us a gift of literary genius and beautiful objectivity. The workshop and discussion with Pietro will be followed by refreshments and a reception at the Romance Languages and Literatures common area in Decio Faculty Hall.
