Jack Stewart: The Birth of Graffiti Art," is an exhibition of never-before-shown photographs by an Atlanta artist who fought under General George Patton in World War Two and documented the early years of graffiti writing and painting on subway cars in New York City. The exhibition at 378 in Candler Park (on Clifton Road behind Flying Biscuit) runs through Saturday, October 19. A closing party Saturday evening, which is free and open to the public, will feature music by W8ing4UFOs. Participating in the podcast discussion are Randy Gue, Curator of Political & Historical Collections at Emory's Rose Library, and two local graffiti writers and historians, Antar Fierce and Mendez MadClout. The discussion covers the historical importance of Stewart's photographs (his PhD dissertation on graffiti art is "the Bible" on the subject) and the origins and stylistic development of graffiti, which in the late 1970s and early '80s made the leap from subway cars to major galleries in Europe and America, as well as to the streets of Atlanta, Fay Gold Gallery and 688.

New York City-based photographer Hugo Fernandes joins Randy Gue, curator of modern, political and historical collections at Emory’s Stuart A. Rose Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library, for a conversation about his “Intimate Strangers” photography series. For 10 years, Fernandes initiated meetings with men through online and app-based cruising sites to set up photo shoots. The resulting portraits explore anonymity, intimacy, sexuality and digital culture. “One of the striking aspects of the series, specifically addressed in the talk, is how shifts in technology, in photography, and in networking applications affected Hugo’s work,” Gue says. “When he started this project in 2006, he posted ads on Craigslist. Much later in the series, he used apps like Grindr and Scruff.” Fernandes’ work is part of the Rose Library’s growing photography collection that explores issues of gender and sexuality, including the collections of Jon Arge, Dianora Niccolini, Len Prince, Billy Howard, and Catherine Kirkpatrick, as well as the library’s LGBT collections.

The first event in its 2017 “Memorial Drive” series with a program about two dynamic women who decided what films would be shown or banned in Atlanta movie theaters for four decades. Matthew H. Bernstein, Goodrich C. White professor and chair of Emory’s Department of Film & Media Studies, discusses “Controlling Atlanta Screens: Movie Censorship from the 1920s to the 1960s.” The event leads off the 2017 “Memorial Drive” series, a collaboration between ArtsATL.com and Emory’s Rose Library that explores the cultural history of Atlanta. “I am excited about the second season of 'Memorial Drive,’ ” said series coordinator Randy Gue, curator of modern political and historical collections at the Rose Library. “The series unites the Rose Library's unique collections about Atlanta and its past with ArtsATL.com's in-depth coverage of the arts and creativity in the metropolitan area." Bernstein’s talk explores the influence of Mrs. Alonzo Richardson and her successor, Christine Smith Gilliam, who were duty-bound to ban films that depicted unpunished crime or illicit sex as outlined by Hollywood’s Production Code. As movies grew more violent and morally ambiguous, the two women had their hands full, but they were equally focused on barring any depiction of social equality between the races.

The first event in a new series of programs at Emory University called “Memorial Drive: Nexus Contemporary Art Center,” presented by the Rose Library and ArtsATL, this panel discussion explores the history of the arts in Atlanta. Nexus alumni helped build the institution in its founding years, and their discussion focuses on the history of the Nexus Contemporary Arts Center (now Atlanta Contemporary Arts Center) and its role in broadening the arts scene in Atlanta and the South. The panel is moderated by Randy Gue, curator of modern political and historical collections at the Rose Library, Emory University.

On April 8, 2014, longtime Atlanta LGBT community activist Jesse Peel was the guest in the Atlanta Intersections series at Emory University's Robert W. Woodruff Library. Randy Gue, curator of modern political and historical collections at Emory's Manuscript, Archives, and Rare Book Library (MARBL), directs the series and conversations. Peel, who was instrumental in building local organizations to support people with HIV/AIDS and their families as the epidemic gained momentum in the early 1980s, donated his papers to MARBL in August 2012 as the library began assembling a dedicated LGBT collection. "Jesse Peel had a front-row seat when the AIDS crisis arrived in Atlanta, and he has inspiring stories to share," Gue says. "He talks about how the LGBT community had to develop its own support, invent its own organizations, and provide its own services because there were no services available to respond to the epidemic."
