Book Discussion | Adolph Gottlieb: A Powerful Will to Art

Book Discussion | The Art of Immigration: Italian Art in an American Church (online)
Celebrate the immigrant history of the South Village with a special talk by Mary Elizabeth Brown, the Center for Migration Studies' archivist, on her new book. Explore the artistic legacy of Church of the Most Precious Blood and its impact on the surrounding Italian immigrant community. It is one of the few churches with an interior almost completely preserved from the early twentieth-century with Sicilian marble altar furnishings, statues dating back to the earliest Italian immigrant communities, and a complete suite of murals by Italian immigrant artist Donatus Buongiorno. Comprehensive detective work reveals an intricate, interwoven community of multiple generations at Most Precious Blood. New immigrants established neighborhood businesses in the shadow of the church and preserved their families’ stories in Most Precious Blood’s decorations, which came from other immigrants in the community.

Discussion | A Look Back at The East Village Eye Magazine
A conversation with four former Eye writers and editors: Carlo McCormick, Marc H. Miller, Walter Robinson, and Yasmin Ramirez. The conversation will be moderated by Hugh Ryan, the author of The Women's House of Detention and When Brooklyn Was Queer. The panelists will discuss their memories of working on the magazine, as well as the East Village culture of the 1980s. Cultural explosions, much like those of stars as seen from earth, are often learned about only years later. That might well have been the case for the exciting, liminal culture of the Lower East Side in the 1980s. It was a time when the arts were innovating, not only in established but redrawn genres, such as those of painting, performance art, punk rock, theater and dance; but in the creation of new, un-heard of forms of these genres, such as hip-hop (in music and fashion) and breakdancing. The mainstream media was largely unaware of this creative outpouring, but in 1979 Leonard Abrams founded the East Village Eye, which for the next 9 years, provided a rich documentation and appreciation of an era of unprecedented cultural liveliness and rebirth. The Eye was a magazine that covered art, culture, politics, and news in the East Village, and published 72 issues until it ceased publication in 1987. The paper provided an extensive document of New York City's downtown scene during this time. Many of the artists, musicians, writers, film and theater directors, and others that made up the contributors and readers of the East Village Eye are now recognized as significant cultural figures of the 1980s.

Book Discussion | Joan Mitchell: Paintings, 1979–1985
Julie Otsuka and Sarah Roberts in conversation about Mitchell's work and life as a painter. Discover Joan Mitchell’s powerful and dynamic work—spotlighted in this book as never before. This highly anticipated publication focuses on the years 1979 to 1985—a significant and deeply generative period within Joan Mitchell’s decades-long career. As Mitchell became even more fully immersed in daily life at her property in Vétheuil, France—surrounded by lush gardens, and challenged and inspired by new creative relationships—her studio practice flourished and her work became even more ambitious and expansive. Executed in an increasingly bold palette, the works from this period exemplify Mitchell’s nuanced mastery of composition, scale, and color. In addition to her large-scale abstract works, this publication features numerous smaller paintings and a selection of archival materials.

Screening | Kidnapped: The Hostage Poster Wars: Screening and Discussion
On October 7, Dede Bandaid and Nitzan Mintz, Israeli artists in New York City for a residency program, never imagined they would spark a guerrilla public art war. Overwhelmed by the news from home about the mounting number of dead and kidnapped, they just wanted to channel their anguish into throwing a spotlight on the plight of the hostages. With the help of two graphic designers back home, they created "KIDNAPPED" posters with the images, names and ages of the hostages and began plastering them across the city, even asking random people to put them up in their neighborhoods. Suddenly, the posters were everywhere: on lamp posts, subway entrances, abandoned buildings. Just as suddenly, they were torn down, shredded or defaced, the word "KIDNAPPED" on one poster bearing the image of an 8-year-old girl replaced by the word "OCCUPIER." The posters are anti-Islamic propaganda, the defilers insisted. Pro-war agitprop. The new documentary film Torn delves into this proxy for a war thousands of miles away--the intense clashes between pro-Israel and pro-Palestine activists who turned New York City's streets into battlegrounds of ideology and emotion. This is a screening of the film and then a conversation with: -- Nitzan Mintz and Dede Bandaid, Street artists and KIDNAPPED Campaign designers -- Nina Mogilnik, Writer, Torn -- Nim Shapira, Writer, Director, Producer, Torn -- Alana Zeitchik, Hostage family member, Executive Director, The Narrow Bridge Project -- Moderated by Yuna Leibzon, US correspondent for Channel 12 News Israel.
