Lecture | What Portia Knew


Julius Caesar is often thought of as a “masculine” play that foregrounds the business of politics and war, but Portia has something important to say. Shakespeare’s careful articulation of her role opens an important window on the play’s profound and still unanswered questions about whether there is ever such a thing as a “virtuous murder.” Speaker Naomi Conn Liebler is Professor of English and University Distinguished Scholar at Montclair State University.

Talk | Ethics Matter: A Conversation with Douglas Rushkoff, Digital Media Expert, Graphic Novelist and Documentarian


Douglas Rushkoff is the Carl Sagan of the digital cosmos—the lucid, deeply human navigator of the bewildering universe in which we now live. In an astonishing flood of books, articles, television shows, and lectures, he has charted the way digital technology changes the way we perceive time, space, others, ourselves. His most recent book, Present Shock, explores the obsession with the now which undermines our powers of reflection. Marshall McLuhan famously said that we shape our media, and then they shape us; Rushkoff will talk about this ineluctable fact, and about how can continue to shape our own lives. Journalist James Traub will interview Rushkoff and then the floor is open for questions from the audience, followed by a reception.

Concert | Lecture/Recital: Verdi's Miserere as Re-Composed by Gottshalk, Liszt and Jelly Roll Morton


With Joseph Smith, piano. The striking differences between the three settings of the Miserere from Giuseppe Verdi's Il Trovatore reflect not just esthetic differences between the composers, but also between their audiences and milieus. American virtuoso Gottschalk exploits the recent popularity of the opera, Liszt creates a dramatic scena for piano, and Morton sets out to prove that jazz incorporates elements of the greatest music. Together, the three pieces illustrate the wide dissemination and appeal of Verdi, reaching the Grand Ducal Court of Weimar, New York City, and the raunchiest districts of New Orleans.

Opening Reception | Sculpture/Video: Dinh Q. Lê's Warf, Woof, Zero, One


An exhibition of new work by Dinh Q. Lê. Best known for his large-scale photographs and video works, Lê has developed an artistic practice that insists on deeper engagement with the way global crisis is perceived and understood. The exhibition, which includes sculpture, photoweavings, and video works, continues Lê’s investigation, shifting away from exploration of personal history, focusing instead on his artistic practice and providing a platform for him to test the boundaries of the photographic medium. Dinh Q. Lê lives in Vietnam and holds an MFA in photography from the School of Visual Arts in New York. He participated in the 2013 Carnegie International at the Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, dOCUMENTA 13 in 2012, the 2009 Biennale Cuveê in Linz, Austria, the 2008 Singapore Biennale, and the 2006 Asia-Pacific Triennial of Contemporary Art, in Brisbane, Australia.

Opening Reception | Sculpture: Kim Beck's A Great Piece of Turf


Beck presents a series of draped chain-link fences made of hand-cut, primed linen. Subtle graphite lines appear along cut edges, imperfections reveal themselves, and a glow emanates from painted undersides. Working from images of security fences and construction barriers, Beck’s life-sized fragments of fencing become collapsed, ineffective grids, failing to secure or protect. As remnants of what were once blockades, these pieces are meditations on fences, territory, turf, and even painting itself.

Gallery Talk | Sensory Tour of the Exhibit Several Circles


Guggenheim educator and art historian Georgia Krantz specializes in descriptive and multi-sensory programs for people who are blind or have low vision, and adapts the utilized techniques for programs for sighted audiences. Her work grew out of recognizing the power of the mind's eye, or "the different ways visitors who are blind or have low vision were experiencing - were seeing - works of art." The potential for sighted audiences to learn from differently sighted audiences is significant. Krantz poses the question, "In a world where everyone sees differently anyway, how is it even possible to precisely reveal the work through the lens of a single viewer?" Krantz will lead tours of Several Circles during which select works will be examined using different techniques adapted from her work with audiences who are blind. Props will be used and, for certain works, lights will be lowered. Visitors will have an opportunity to experience art through various senses, not just the privileged sense of sight. The aim is to sensitize observers to the diverse and nuanced means by which an augmented awareness of the sensorium capacitates an enhanced encounter with art.

Tour | Manhattan Night Tour


New York is a skyscraper city and there is no better time to view Manhattan’s icons than after the sun sets and the lights go on. Fueled by competition and a dash of audacity, New York City is still producing one of mankind’s most remarkable skyline. NOTE: THIS TOUR SPENDS MUCH TIME INDOORS OR IN SUBWAYS AND GREAT FOR ALL WEATHER CONDITIONS.
