Opening Reception | 2 Art Shows: Michelle Stone / Gabrielle Rossmer


Michelle Stone presents an intriguing and beautiful sculpture installation. Her constructed, abstract hybrid forms live, mutate, combine and transform themselves into a textured, colorful, menagerie of creatures and in doing so transform the gallery into a world of her creation. These engaging constructions create a primal experience as they evolve and regenerate from fragments into a community of relationships. The sculpture of Gabrielle Rossmer (shown) has been exploring the use of small-scale figures for the past 12 years. Rossmer hopes to achieve some of the same motion and emotional power she previously achieved with abstract constructions and large-scale installation work. In this show, Rossmer explores the affinities between dance and sculpture. Dance is body in motion, but it is also gesture.

Opening Reception | Paintings: Gilbert & George’s London Pictures


These monumental pictures with titles such as “ARRESTED”, “ATTACKED STRAIGHT”, “BOMB”, “LOVER”, “MISSING”, “SUICIDE”, take their names from newspaper posters and as a whole, portray the sorrow and humanity of western city life. Gilbert & George have described in several interviews how London, its grandeur, mystery and drama has been a major inspiration of their determinedly confrontational and richly atmospheric art for nearly five decades. Over this period, Gilbert & George have shadowed London’s moods, identifying within the city’s sleepless thoroughfares all of the messy, precious, undeniable aspects of the modern human condition. The opening takes place in three places.

Objects like ropes, hot air balloons and old-fashioned cars accrue an almost satirical element with their nostalgic references to a pleasant past and childhood.

Discussion | Drawing the Line between High and Low Art


Austrian graphic artist Nicolas Mahler will discuss his latest book in translation: Angelman: Fallen Angel, the tragicomic story of a hapless super-hero. He has also just released a graphic version of Thomas Bernhard's acclaimed 1985 satirical novel Old Masters: A Comedy. In a conversation with JM Stim, Mahler will discuss how he reconciles a career that runs the gamut from the most exalted strata of high culture (an adaptation of a classic work by one of the most important German-speaking authors of the postwar era) to the murky backwaters of pop culture (a super-hero comic-book). He will tackle this and other subjects, discussing the creative process behind the two books, and exploring how the adaptation of a literary text into the seemingly lowbrow medium of comic-books might actually cast a valuable, even revelatory new light on the original work.

Discussion | Melodrama Reclaimed: Branden Jacobs-Jenkins & Mark Ravenhill reimagine Dion Boucicault’s The Octoroon


Two of theater’s fiercest intellects—the Brooklyn-based provocateur Branden Jacobs-Jenkins (Neighbors) and English groundbreaker Mark Ravenhill (Shopping and F*ing, Ten Plagues)—take a crack at the 1859 melodrama The Octoroon, considered by many one of the first American plays. Using the play as a jumping off point, Jenkins and Ravenhill discuss the playwright Dion Boucicault’s historical legacy, as well as dramatic depictions of America’s race problem both here and abroad; the role of the press in the theatre; and the trials of adaptation, authorship and controversy.

Ganesh Das leads a therapeutic meditation practice. This healing Satsang is designed and blessed by his gurus and founders of the method, Sharon Gannon and David Life.

One learns to create space and calmness in the mind and body, amidst the daily chaos of life. This class provides a safe environment for the community to gather and openly discuss spiritual and every day aspects of life through a candid Q & A.

Screening | Documentary: Jarreth Merz's An African Election (2011)


The 2008 presidential elections in Ghana, West Africa, serve as a backdrop for this feature documentary that looks behind-the-scenes at the complex, political machinery of a third world democracy struggling to legitimize itself to its first world contemporaries. At stake in this race are the fates of two political parties that will do almost anything to win. Throughout the film, director Jarreth Merz depicts the pride and humanity of the larger-than-life politicians, party operatives and citizens who battle for the soul of their country. Merz will be in attendance and will answer audience questions following the screening.
