SUMMARY:PRACTICE
DESCRIPTION:See an Earth Day screening of Practice (dir. Laurens Pérol\, Norway\, 2023)\, a coming-of-age film about an eighteen-year-old musician whose environmentalism is tested when her refusal to fly jeopardizes an audition that will make or break her career\, on April 24 at Scandinavia House! \nLike Greta Thunberg\, the talented but stubborn trumpet player Trine refuses to fly. Idealism threatens the climate activist’s promising musical career when she lands a last-minute audition in Oslo—1500 kilometers south of her home in Northern Norway. Rather than abandon her morals\, Trine decides to hitchhike her way to the capital. Practice is an unlikely road movie about passion\, righteousness and youth\, and a tender exploration of what it means to listen to ourselves. \nPurchase Tickets

SUMMARY:HEROSTORIES | BOOK TALK WITH KRISTÍN SVAVA TÓMASDÓTTIR\, K.B. THORS & LARISSA KYZER
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a book talk with Icelandic poet and historian Kristín Svava Tómasdóttir and translator and ASF Translation Prizewinner K.B. Thors on Herostories! With moderator Larissa Kyzer (also an ASF Translation Prizewinner)\, Tómasdóttir and Thors will discuss this new work out now from Vellum Press revealing tales untold by most history books: the harrowing journeys and vital triumphs of 19th- and 20th-century midwifery in the vast landscape of Iceland. \nComposed from the memoirs and biographies of 100 Icelandic midwives\, poet-historian Kristín Svava Tómasdóttir’s found poems illuminate the dangers and valor of birthwork. Forgoing traditional sagas of androcentric conquest\, these poems center the adventures of ljósmæður\, “mothers of light.” Tómasdóttir leverages epic elements—dashing mountain treks\, rivers forded on horseback\, unyielding compassion—to challenge how and by whom stories become legend. Beyond archival recognition\, the text’s formally ambitious poetics render gender-based battles for literacy and education alongside narratives of selfless womanly caretaking\, pressurizing the fundamental tensions between feminine self-actualization and the romanticized service of these trailblazing figures. \nThe follow-up to Tómasdóttir and Thors’ award-winning\, PEN-nominated Stormwarning\, Herostories documents the professional achievements of Iceland’s first women to work outside the home\, precursors to today’s midwives who remain central to contemporary health care on the island. \nRegister

SUMMARY:D FOR DAUGHTER | BOOK TALK WITH ELINA BIRKEHAG
DESCRIPTION:Join us April 27 to celebrate the book launch of D For Daughter\, a new photobook by Stockholm-based artist Elina Birkehag out now from D.A.P./Artbooks! \nDeep in Dalarna\, Sweden\, scattered amongst stumps and newer growth trees\, stand Scotch pine trees\, hundreds of years old—thick\, gnarled\, and covered with carvings. The messages inscribed into their trunks were made by female shepherds from the 17th- to 20th-centuries who left their villages to live and work together on the fäbod (summer farm)\, and lead their families’ cattle to graze. Out in the pastures\, these young women carved dates\, their initials\, and notes to each other. The trunks became inscribed with a kind of frenetic teenage scrawl\, a coded language\, an assertion of their existence: HERE WE CARVE OUR NAMES. \nThe artist Elina Birkehag grew up in a village not far from these woods. She has searched and documented the carved messages on the trees—a “living” archive that will also die\, decompose\, and eventually disappear. D For Daughter collects these written notes\, drawings\, photographs\, and other findings\, connecting readers with the female shepherds and allow them to read the trees. \nWith contributions by Quinn Latimer\, Meg Miller\, Matilda Kenttä & Linnea Rutz\, Jungmyung Lee\, Jennie Tiderman-Österberg\, and Amelia Groom & M. Ty\, as well as graphic design and co-editing by Laslo Strong\, D For Daughter forms a dialogue with this barely-studied writing system and relate it to contemporary themes of knowledge sharing\, gossip\, ecology\, labor and art. \nRegister
