\n“Philosophy in Maine”<\/p>\n

Margaret (Mimi) Killinger (Honors, Rezendes Preceptor for the Arts)
\n<\/strong>\u201cJoanna Paul: The Otago Years, 1977-1983\u201d
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

Margaret Killinger, associate professor of Honors and Rezendes Preceptor for the Arts, will apply her McGillicuddy Humanities Center Faculty<\/span>\u00a0award towards travel and research for her \u201cJoanna Paul: The Otago Years, 1977-1983\u201d project. Killinger’s immediate research will focus on the years\u00a0Joanna Margaret Paul (1945-2003)<\/a> spent as artist and poet in Dunedin, New Zealand, from 1977 to 1983. Paul is remembered in New Zealand as “one of our most original (and most unsung) poets, a painter who\u2019d never really received her due, an artist in the fullest sense of the term,” and Killinger’s work\u00a0will investigate Paul\u2019s coming of age as a public artist and an intriguing figure within the New Zealand women\u2019s art movement.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
Brian Pitman, assistant professor of sociology, was awarded a grant<\/span>\u00a0for his “Addressing Homelessness and Building Community in the Greater Bangor Area<\/strong>” project. The grant<\/span> will be used to “initiate community conversations – both inside and outside the classroom and university, based on shared reading experiences \u2014 that raise awareness amongst different stakeholders in the Greater Bangor area about how to care for each other during this worsening housing crisis. The project includes a community reading group to develop more comprehensive understandings of homelessness and the housing crisis, and community and university forums on homelessness that amplify the experiences of those directly impacted by this crisis.” Pitman is collaborating with several community partners, including the Greater Bangor Housing Coalition, on the reading groups and events.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
Professor\u00a0Beth Wieman<\/a>n<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>of\u00a0the School of Performing Arts was\u00a0granted an award\u00a0to support performances of a new work by the Boston opera company\u00a0Guerilla Opera<\/a><\/strong> at the University of Maine. Professor Wiemann’s project is a collaboration with Guerilla Opera and the\u00a0Nichols Museum<\/strong>\u00a0<\/a>in Boston on a site-specific chamber opera for premiere in 2022. The new work is based on the life of\u00a0Rose Standish Nichols<\/a>, a suffragette and WWI-era Peace activist, with a libretto by Wiemann based on materials in the Museum collection and its publications. As part of the development process for this work, Wiemann and Guerilla Opera have planned a residency for the company at 91¸£Àû in March 2022, both to present scenes of the new piece in workshop form, and to record parts of the score for use in the multimedia performances later in the year.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
