Discussion | How Low-Carbon Ammonia Can Help Fight Climate Change (online)
Modern society depends on ammonia, a chemical compound that plays a central role in modern agriculture, delivering nitrogen essential for soil fertility. Ammonia is also a key feedstock in plastics, rubber, and other products. Current methods for making ammonia produce significant carbon dioxide emissions—almost 2% of the global total. Low-carbon production methods can dramatically reduce these emissions. Low-carbon production of ammonia also creates a fuel that could help decarbonize a range of sectors. This discussion explores a number of topics including low-carbon ammonia production options, infrastructure needs, potential uses for low-carbon ammonia, and policy options. Moderator: David Sandalow, Inaugural Fellow, Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia SIPA and Chair, ICEF Innovation Roadmap Project Panelists: -- Zhiyuan Fan, Ph.D. student and Research Associate, Columbia University -- Dr. Julio Friedmann, Chief Scientist and Chief Carbon Wrangler, Carbon Direct -- Ann-Kathrin Merz, Industry Analyst, First Ammonia and Research Assistant, Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia

Performance | American Moon: Seminal Performance Art
A pioneer of performance and multimedia installation art, Robert Whitman has devoted his career to exploration and collaboration. A major figure in the ephemeral Happenings, Whitman first presented his seminal performance American Moon in 1960. Consisting of an architectural environment-come-stage set, the work featured six performers, a dedicated movie, and a series of animated objects. Experiential in nature and circumstance, Whitman’s happenings and specifically American Moon developed from a series of sketches, watercolors and fragmented captions and verbal notation rather than a fixed “script.” For Whitman, time was and “is something material,” to be stretched and teased, as a generator of lived experience. A three-dimensional abstraction collaged from found material and the collaborative engagement of performers and audience. This is a restaging of American Moon over the course of two evenings, featuring a recreation of Whitman’s original set, and engaging a new generation of New York-based performers, including Lizzi Bougatsos, Patrick Gallagher, Morgan Griffin, Miguel Angel Guzman, John Hoobyar, and Raymond Pinto. Working with this contemporary cast, Whitman chooses to return to his seminal “story” to connect the history of the Happenings with the contemporary need and desire for experiential culture. The tidemarks of activity from the performances, along with Whitman’s original notes and drawings. will be on view as a physical exhibition.

Book Discussion | The Colors of Sies Marjan: Story of a Fashion House
Sander Lak in conversation with Elizabeth Peyton about his highly influential, beloved, and now cult fashion brand, Sies Marjan. Known for its evocative use of color, proportion, and subversive fabrication, the New York-based fashion house Sies Marjan, founded in 2016 by Dutch creative director Sander Lak, had a brief but influential life. Although it shut its doors in 2020, Sies Marjan made a permanent mark on the fashion scene. Pieces were characterized by luxurious construction, the signature use of shining, jewel-toned hues, and effortlessly cool appeal--the house's pastel coats, thrown over T-shirts, are still regularly seen in downtown New York. Since its founding, Sies Marjan has garnered a devoted fan base and praise from notable critics, celebrities, and fans alike in a city known for its endless affection for a darker palette. Rejecting the chronologies and seasonality of the typical fashion compendium, this exhaustive, richly illustrated volume is organized purely by color. The trajectory through the color spectrum traces the journey through the blazing life of the brand. Images featured within range from previously unpublished looks from iconic runway shows, and ad campaigns to found objects that reveal the inspiration behind the creation of these luxurious, chromatic garments. The flow of color is punctuated by a number of interviews and reflections from Marc Jacobs, Donna Tartt, Isabella Rossellini, Rem Koolhaas, Hanya Yanagihara, and others.

Book Discussion | The Forbidden Notebook: Unhappy Housewife in Postwar Rome
In this modern translation by acclaimed Elena Ferrante translator Ann Goldstein, The Forbidden Notebook by Alba de Céspedes centers on the inner life of a dissatisfied housewife living in postwar Rome. Valeria Cossati never suspected how unhappy she had become with the shabby gentility of her bourgeois life—until she begins to jot down her thoughts and feelings in a little black book she keeps hidden in a closet. This new secret activity leads her to scrutinize herself and her life more closely, and she soon realizes that her individuality is being stifled by her devotion and sense of duty toward her husband, daughter, and son. As the conflicts between parents and children, husband and wife, and friends and lovers intensify, what goes on behind the Cossatis’ facade of middle-class respectability gradually comes to light, tearing the family’s fragile fabric apart.
