SUMMARY:Expiration Sun
DESCRIPTION:Expiration Sun\, a solo exhibition by Katarina Jacobs\, MFA Painting ’28\, opens for viewing at the 4Most Gallery from Monday\, November 2 through Friday\, November 13. \n\n\n\nReception\n\n\n\nNovember 3\, 2026 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.\n\n\n\n“Expiration Sun is less interested in the spectacle of death than in what thinking about death can offer the living. My recent work comes from researching near-death experiences\, particularly in the recurring claim that these experiences can feel ‘more real than real.’ \n\n\n\n“The paintings move between the ideas of reality and ‘ultra reality\,’ where the physical world might be one part of life rather than its complete form. There may be no clear entrance or exit as the soul uses the body to experience life in the physical world. Experiencers often describe light\, energy\, boundaries\, encounters with other consciousnesses\, and permanently changed relationships with the mind and body\, resulting in profound changes in lifestyle and outlook. These recollections inspire the way I imagine space and construct the composition of my paintings seen within Expiration Sun. \n\n\n\n“The reduced attachment to material possessions often reported after near-death experiences is particularly important to this exhibition\, and it raises questions about what we assign value to during our lives. After all\, even our bodies are temporary. Like the sun\, we are extinguishable in form\, yet inextinguishable in essence” (Jacobs\, 2026).

SUMMARY:HESCAH Lecture | Dr. Jaleh Mansoor "Three Temporalities of the 1960’s Neo-Avant-Garde: Twombly’s Melancholia\, Warhol’s Mimesis\, Merz’s Portentous Futurism"
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Mansoor’s research on abstract painting in the context of the miracolo Italiano and the international relations of the Marshall Plan era nested within the global dynamics of the Cold War opens up on to problems concerning the labour-to-capital relationship and its ramifications in culture and aesthetics. Her work limns the correlation between real and aesthetic abstraction. While Marx\, in the introduction to The Grundrisse\, evoked aesthetic abstraction only to bracket it off from concrete abstraction in the realm of production\, circulation\, and consumption\, this talk traces the etiology of capitalist social dynamics symptomatized in aesthetic abstraction. The relationship among technology\, media\, and reification factors into this etiology\, but does not account for the social relations also indexed therein.

SUMMARY:One Million Counterextinctions\, Stage 2\, City Assembly
DESCRIPTION:Rescheduled from Friday\, October 2\n\n\n\nJoin the SAAH and other community members on Friday\, November 13 at Depot Park on the Hill to imagine infrastructure that will allow species local to Alachua County to survive the climate conditions they will face in 2045. \n\n\n\nOne Million Counterextinctions is a multi-stage\, multi-year civic project led by Conrad Cheung\, Assistant Professor of 3D + Extended Media\, in partnership with Alachua County Commissioner Anna Prizzia and the Office of Resiliency. \n\n\n\nBy 2045\, rising heat\, saltwater intrusion\, habitat loss\, and seasonal disruption will push dozens of local species past thresholds they can’t come back from. The species our lives depend on have no say in how cities build infrastructure; this project proposes a city-level prototype for designing multispecies infrastructure as a public\, non-expert process. \n\n\n\nAt Depot Park\, attendees will be introduced to a local species and the specific climate scenario it faces by 2045\, and design a response by drawing or modeling a habitat\, system\, tool\, or something no one has imagined yet. No expertise is required\, and there are no single solutions; the event is free to the public\, open to all ages\, and attendees can drop in at any time. \n\n\n\nEvery design created is credited to its maker and enters a permanent\, open-source public archive at counterextinctions.com\, already home to more than 250 community-authored designs and counting\, free for anyone to build. The project’s first installations\, selected from that archive\, will be fabricated at functional scale and sited on public land across Gainesville\, where the species they were designed for will test them as real infrastructure.

SUMMARY:Living with Others: The Art and Ecology of a Multi-species Future | Program II
DESCRIPTION:Living with Others is a speaker series organized by Eury Kim\, Assistant Professor of Visual Communication Design\, with support from the Center for Humanities and the Public Sphere (CHPS)\, the Department of English\, and the Department of Gender\, Sexuality and Women’s Studies. The series aims to build ways of learning that go beyond aesthetic experience and demonstrate how art practices generate knowledge alongside traditional forms of humanities research. Programming will include artist talks and nature walks designed to engage students\, staff\, faculty and the broader Gainesville community with life that thrives on campus grounds. Activities will focus on caring for plants and animals in nearby swamps and wetlands\, including Lake Alice and the Harn Museum of Art. \n\n\n\nProgram II: Cornelius Tulloch and Arsimmer McCoy\n\n\n\nCornelius Tulloch is an interdisciplinary artist and architect based in Miami\, whose immersive installations explore the fusion of cultural identity\, memory\, nature\, and the built environment. Drawing on his Jamaican and African American heritage\, Tulloch highlights how Black communities in Southern Florida and the US have historically lived with wetlands. His work emphasizes listening and sensing as ways to learn from the environment.  \n\n\n\nArsimmer McCoy\, pronounced “Awe-summer\,” is a Miami native by way of Richmond Heights. McCoy is a mother\, griot and creative; a writer\, international poet\, educator\, creative programmer\, cultural worker and performance-collaborative artist. \n\n\n\nProgramming for Living with Others is made possible by our sponsors.

SUMMARY:A Midsummer Night's Dream
