<i>White Petals Surround Your Yellow Heart</i> presents the work of artists engaged with clothing, adornment, and self-presentation to highlight the inventive design, tactical implementation, or sartorial sense by which we multiply and complete our personalities. On view in ICA's First Floor Space February 6 through July, 28, 2013, this group exhibition takes inspiration from this definition by novelist JG Ballard—"Fashion: A recognition that nature has endowed us with one skin too few, and that a fully sentient being should wear its nervous system externally."</div>
<br />
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;">
<img alt="" border="0" height="519" src="http://www.icaphila.org/exhibitions/images/white-petals2.jpg" width-="" /></div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;">
Artworks in a variety of media infuse garments with a distinctive sense of pose—the exclusive province of neither the advertisement nor the runway—to stand, statue-like, with an attitude perfumed by immense mediation and an unsteady social sphere. With examples from outlandish costumes to self-published magazines, jewelry to sculpture, performance to painting, this sensibility permeates all fields. Oscillating between branding, self-recognition, sexuality, political uniform, and economic indicator, our adornment always reflects a chosen position in and with society. Told time and time again that ours is a narcissistic age, how do we positively reveal or covertly enact desires before the mirror of our time?</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px; text-align: left;">
This exhibition is organized by ICA Associate Curator Anthony Elms, and is accompanied by a fully illustrated catalogue.</div>

I shared the work of <a href="http://www.christianjoy.us/">Christian Joy </a>with students last year, but realized I had not posted about the costume designer this year. You may be familiar with their work - most known for costuming the singer Karen O. Kelsey Laseur, a graduate from last year, recently landed an internship there.<br />

TEN TIPS FOR COOPERATIVE PROBLEM SOLVING</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
When conflicts arise, we often fall automatically into adversarial, “you or me” ways of thinking and acting that lead to win-lose decisions and damaged relationships. Here are some tips to remember when you want to turn a conflict into a mutual agreement as well as a good relationship:</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;">1. Accept that conflicts are normal: </span>In fact, they are inevitable. There are seven billion people on this planet. We will never all agree. But with the right tools, we can learn how to manage many conflicts as partners so that everyone is satisfied.</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;">2. Treat conflicts as natural resources: </span>Conflict is neither positive nor negative in itself. It is the way you deal with the issue and with the other person that is the key. If you know how to handle conflicts well, this can lead to good agreements and improved relationships.</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;">3. Treat the other person as a partner: </span>When in conflict, you can either try to be the sole winner or ask: “How can we work this out together?”</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;">4. Listen: </span>If you don’t listen, the other person probably won’t listen to you. So before trying to solve the problem, listen – ask questions and really listen – until you understand your partner’s point of view. We all want to be heard and understood.</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;">5. Discover interests: </span>We tend to have disagreements over our <span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;">positions </span>– the way we want to do things. But we seldom talk about our <span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;">interests </span>– the reasons why our positions are important to us. Express your interests honestly, and ask about your partner’s interests. Often you will find some overlap between their interests and yours. It is in that common ground that you are likely to find solutions.</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;">6. “Understand the differences; act on the commonalities”: </span>There is an old saying that “there are at least seven solutions to every problem.” So once you have discovered interests, work together to find as many answers as you can to the question: “What are some possible ways for us to meet our interests?” You don’t have to come up with a solution by yourself – work it out together.</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;">7. Respect people; attack problems: </span>If emotions flare, don’t give in to anger or personal attacks. Emotions just mean that this is an important matter. Whatever happens, respect your partner’s dignity as well as your own. Stay away from questioning the other person’s motivation or character. Focus on the problem.</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 9.0px 'Trebuchet MS';"></span><span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;">8. Choose your approach: </span>You have choices when it comes to managing conflicts. Some conflicts are just not worth dealing with. At other times, it may be appropriate to resolve a conflict by just saying “no”. Other possibilities include going to court, going to the police, or having someone else decide. But for those times when your goal is solving the problem <span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;">and </span>improving the relationship, a cooperative approach will serve you best. What is important is to realize that you have choices.</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;">9. Know how to do it: </span>Like any other process, there are some fundamental steps in cooperative problem solving. Use them as guides:</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Symbol;">•<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span>Describe your point of view briefly and without judging the other person.</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Symbol;">•<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span>Discover interests through two-way conversation. </div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Symbol;">•<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span>Generate options – possible ways to meet everyone’s interests. </div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Symbol;">•<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span></span>Develop mutual agreements.</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
<span style="font: 12.0px Helvetica;">10. Be a constant learner: </span>Cooperative problem solving is a learning experience for all involved. It requires that we temper our instincts for flight or fight. And it requires that we change our assumptions that conflict is a bad thing rather than an opportunity for problem solving. But like any other skill, you can get better at it with practice. It is rarely the easy route, but ultimately it is the most rewarding. And when you treat someone with whom you disagree as a partner rather than an enemy, you have at least increased the practice of civility in society.</div>
<div style="font: 12.0px 'Trebuchet MS'; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">
