Lecture | A Biography of an Ancient Greek City in Ionia
In 2022, the University of Michigan began excavations at the Greek city of Notion (also known as Colophon-by-the-Sea) near Ephesus in Ionia. Professor Christopher Ratté’s lecture focuses on monuments of the Hellenistic period, including the city’s fortifications, theater, temples, agora, bouleuterion (Town Hall), and numerous large courtyard houses. A spectacular new find from an earlier period is a hoard of gold coins (Persian darics, minted in the fifth or fourth century BCE) buried in a pot beneath the courtyard of a Hellenistic house.

Book Discussion | Chicago Skyscrapers, 1934-1986: How Technology, Politics, Finance, and Race Reshaped the City (online)
The most famous residential structures of postwar Chicago are still Mies van der Rohe's 860-880 Lake Shore Drive with the modernist expression of their steel skeleton. But Mies also designed in concrete, as did many Chicago architects and builders throughout the 20th century. Chicago developed home-grown expertise in flat slab, "rib-cage," and tube construction that produced remarkably innovative residential towers across the city. While a few of the postwar icons--Marina City and Lake Point Tower, for instance--are well studied, others such as Lawless Gardens, 320 Oakdale, and Quadrangle House deserve greater attention for the impact they had on the city's building culture. Author Thomas Leslie will discuss his new book, an expansive architectural history that tackles the history of a half century of Chicago's built environment.

Lecture | Anarchist Simulacra: Responding AI
After the birth of intelligence as a scientific notion in the 19th century, the emergence of neurochips able to mimic brain plasticity, and the invention of neural networks and intelligent robots, we are witnessing a new technological age, in which the simulation of the real has become limitless. How are we to answer the challenge of this super AI? How to respond to responding systems like ChatGPT? The talk will try to bring to light the political implications of these questions. Speaker Catherine Malabou is a professor of philosophy in the departments of Comparative Literature and European Languages and Studies at UC Irvine.

Discussion | The Artists Roundtable (online)
A talk with Chie Fueki. Visually-striking and intricate, Fueki’s paintings picture contemporary life in spectacular motion. Created through a complex system of painting, drawing, cutting and collaging onto wood panels, her practice is centered around the depiction of figures, symbols and abstract spaces using multi-layered ornamental surfaces and fields of color. Drawing on her experience as a Japanese-born artist growing up in Brazil and later practicing in the United States, Fueki’s work embraces the visual language from these three distinct cultures.

Discussion | What Makes It Italian?: From Sicily to the Tyrol (online)
"What Makes It Italian?" is a music listening and discussion group. The group is led by Gina Crusco, who has also guided listening at Bard LLI and Riverdale Y; acted as maestro del coro for opera in Italy; instructed music at The New School; and directed Underworld Productions. The encounter will focus on: Donnafugata, Ragusa, with composer Alfonso Gibilaro and Trattmansdorff Castle Gardens, Merano, with composer Federico Campana Whatever the purpose of a garden - pleasure, contemplation, practicality, or botany - it is the artifact of someone taming chaos into a recognizable form. When garden forms share underlying aesthetics with music, they make the unseen tangible. In this series, we listen to works by composers associated with Italian gardens, including Leonora d'Este, Vincenzo Galilei (father of Galileo), Francesco Veracini, and Federico Campana. Like a gardener, the composer "weeds out" unwanted sounds and manipulates others into preordained forms. We explore parallels between gardens - nature organized in space - and music - noise organized in time. Just as some garden designs, like the labyrinth, defy geography and era, so music speaks an international language. Let's listen.

Film | The Making of the Avant-Garde: The Institute for Architecture and Urban Studies 1967-1984 (2013)
The Institute for Architecture and Urban Studies, founded in 1967 with close ties to the Museum of Modern Art, made New York the global center for architectural debate and critically redefined architectural discourse in the United States and beyond. A place of immense energy and effervescence, its founders and participants were young and hardly known at the time but would ultimately shape architectural practice and theory for decades. This film documents and explores the Institute's fertile beginnings and enduring significance as a locus for the avant-garde. The film, presents the creation and existence of the IAUS in the architectural, cultural, and political climate of the time, from the anti War riots, the Women's Movement to the Paris May '68 revolution and the crime ridden and bankrupt New York City, through rich and abundant footage portraying the period.

Discussion | The Creation of Le Petit Prince: A Celebration
It's the 80th anniversary of the publication of Le Petit Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, the French author and aviator who lived in New York during World War II. A musical play in French, Vols au-dessus du Volcan, is based on the correspondence between Antoine de Saint-Exupéry and his wife Consuelo. The letters exchanged from their first encounter in Buenos Aires in 1930 to the disappearance of the writer in the summer of 1944 are marked by the blurring of the lines between the reality and the fantasy of their intertwined and tumultuous lives. The play highlights the mutual promise of unconditional love between these two strong personalities. Vols au dessus du Volcan has been produced by Chemindessens, a company created by Isabelle Chemin, and premiered in France in 2022.

Concert | Band Blends Vintage Peruvian and Middle Eastern Sounds
La Banda Chuska merges the sounds of vintage Peruvian cumbia and psychedelic chicha with 1960s Latin American and Middle Eastern surf rock. They then add a dose of the surreal intensity of New York City to amplify their diverse musical and cultural backgrounds: Peru, Argentina, Puerto Rico, and various corners of the U.S. The result is a fireball of post-punk energy and subversive playfulness, a sort of tropical funk meets The B-52s.

Staged Reading | New York City's Longest-Running Cold Play Reading
Naked Angels was formed in 1986 by a group of artists intent on creating a creative home for new voices. Forming a community of writers, directors, actors, producers, and designers, our founders crafted an open environment for expression, experimentation, and production. The company took its name from the John Tytell book, which referred to Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, William Burroughs and other Beats as “a generation that wanted to break out of convention and scream.” As a young group, the Naked Angels artists felt the same way; needing a place where, through the medium of theater, they could show the world a different perspective of the times. Sometimes outraged, often irreverent, occasionally absurd, and always intelligent, enthusiastic and fun, Naked Angels’ work was a spark to which audiences were quickly drawn. The Space, as their theater on 17th Street was known, soon became a vital, thriving crossroads where talented theater artists met and collaborated: the destination of choice for those seeking a truly celebratory theatrical experience.
