The Bronx Culture Trolley rolls again on Wednesday, July 1, along South Bronx Cultural Corridor with an evening full of family activities. The evening features six art exhibitions at: Longwood Art Gallery at Hostos, Bronx Museum of the Arts, Synthetic Zero Art Space, LDR Studio Gallery, and Bruckner Gallery at the Bruckner Bar & Grill. The evening will also include a book signing at the Bronx Museum, a visit to the outdoor Tree Museum, a trip to the Alexander Avenue Art and Antiques District, an outdoor literary reading at St. Mary’s Park, and a karaoke after-party at the Bruckner Bar & Grill. The Bronx Culture Trolley is a program of the Bronx Council on the Arts (BCA). Admission to most activities is free and all are welcome to hop on board and enjoy them.
July 1’s trolley begins at the Longwood Art Gallery at (Hostos Community College, 450 Grand Concourse at 149th Street, at 5 p.m. with a meet-and-greet reception for the Bronx Culture Trolley and a viewing of two exhibitions Bangin’ and Linger, two exhibitions curated by BRIO winner Wanda Raimundi-Ortiz, on view through August 6. Bangin’ (in the Main Gallery) is a provocative and seductive show which includes the work of nine emerging women artists that allure the viewer to a deeper level of conversation and appreciation by going beyond the beauty and seduction of the surfaces and contents of drawings, paintings, photographs, sculpture and video. The show includes works by Emma Amos and Heather Hart (tapping into the issues of race), works by Traci Tullius, Alison Ward, and Emily North, (exploring the corporeal), works by Wonder Koch and Tamara Kostianovsky (taking you into the realm of politics), and works by Clarissa Cummings and Swati Khurana (questioning the notions of culture and tradition). Linger (on view in the Project Room) is a new installation of video, sculpture and performance by Bronx artist Melissa Calderon. The artist includes this media to create a hauntingly, obsessive introspection of new work that challenges the notion of intimacy, landscape and creation. Calderon aims to ad-dress the issues of vulnerability, loss and the obsessive thought process of art-making.
