Talk | Painted Memories of a Jewish Childhood in Poland Before the Holocaust


A presentation by Barbara Kirshenblatt-Gimblett Lest future generations know more about how Jews died than how they lived, Mayer Kirshenblatt (1916-2009) made it his mission to remember the world of his childhood in images and words. Born in Opatów (Apt in Yiddish), Mayer left for Canada in 1934 at the age of 17. He had always told his family stories about growing up in Poland before the Holocaust. After his family begged him to paint what he could remember, Mayer finally picked up his brush in 1989 at the age of 73. To his amazement, the town of his childhood emerged in living color. Painting by painting, story by story, he had recreated the entire world of his youth. He created hundreds of paintings and drawings during the last 20 years of his life.

Book Discussion | Wronged: The Weaponization of Victimhood by Lilie Chouliaraki


Why is being a victim such a potent identity today? Who claims to be a victim, and why? How have such claims changed in the past century? Who benefits and who loses from the struggles over victimhood in public culture? In this presentation, Lilie Chouliaraki shows how claiming victimhood is about claiming power: who deserves to be protected as a victim and who should be punished as a perpetrator. She does this by outlining a theory of victimhood based on, what she calls, a “politics of pain” and argues that even though victimhood has historically been used in struggles for equality and freedom for the systemically vulnerable, social media platforms and far-right populism have turned victimhood into a weapon of the privileged. Drawing on recent examples such as the overturning of Roe v. Wade and the COVID-19 pandemic, she reveals why claims of victimization are so effective at reinforcing instead of alleviating inequalities of class, gender, and race. She concludes with reflections on how the vocabulary of victimhood could be reclaimed and used in ways that benefit the vulnerable, empowering cultures of solidarity, and protesting against systems of cruelty and oppression.

Director: Norman Jewison Cast: Cher, Nicolas Cage, Vincent Gardenia, Olympia Dukakis, Danny Aiello Cher is an American singer, actress, and television personality.

Opening Reception | Oren Pinhassi: Losing Face


New York-based artist Oren Pinhassi (b. 1985, Tel Aviv, Israel; lives and works in New York) creates sensuous sculptures and large-scale installations that explore the politics of architectural spaces as they relate to the human body. His anthropomorphic sculptures, often standing up to eight feet in height, examine individual vulnerability and fluidity within the built environment, probing new possibilities for coexistence. Pinhassi’s haptic and immersive spaces redefine the relationship between viewer and environment, provoking a visceral interaction with the art object that yields a heightened awareness of humankind’s place within larger socio-political ecosystems.

Opening Reception | Julije Knifer: Works from 1950 to 2004


Julije Knifer’s first solo exhibition with the gallery, taking place in the 100th year of the anniversary of his birth and 20 years since his passing. Widely considered one of the most important and influential Croatian painters of the 20th century, Julije Knifer helped found the neo-avant-garde Gorgona group, an influential Zagreb-based collective active from 1959 to 1966 whose main ambition was the search for artistic and intellectual freedom. He dedicated the majority of his artistic career, from 1959 until his death in 2004, to the exploration of a geometric and rhythmic form known as the meander in pursuit of an “anti-image” that eschewed all expressive content. Appropriating this historic motif transformed Knifer’s approach to art into an ascetic exercise of endless variation and reiteration in which time and evolution becomes relative, a journey he described as “without progression or regression.” This retrospective exhibition includes paintings and drawings from 1950 to the early 2000s, examining Knifer’s strategic use of reduction and repetition as a means of achieving liberation. A mural on the largest wall in the gallery demonstrates the potential of the rigorously prescribed meander removed from the canvas or paper to become a fully integrated architectural element. In POLIPTIH 1–4 (1976), the meander extends across four panels, while the 13-feet-wide JK F HC 91 1 (1991) invites total immersion in its symphonic movement.

Opening Reception | Mark Grotjahn: Out of Country


An exhibition of new and recent paintings by Mark Grotjahn at the gallery’s 980 Madison Avenue location in New York. Opening on September 10, Out of Country represents the culmination of the Backcountry series that has occupied the artist since 2021, and features never before exhibited paintings on white grounds, as well as two black-ground paintings. A press preview and tour with the artist will take place at 10:30am on Monday, September 9. In his paintings, sculptures, and works on paper, Grotjahn investigates color, perspective, seriality, and the sublime. The concluding entries in the Backcountry series featured in this exhibition see him again draw inspiration from the experience of rural American landscapes, specifically those from his ski and fly-fishing tours in the remote backcountry of western Colorado. While the works contain an element of pictorial representation, hinting at a snowy mountain descent or starlit nocturnal pass, their primary commitment is still to abstraction, specifically the nuanced layering of line, tone, and texture. Continuing to produce variations on an identifiable style and format, Grotjahn builds on a dynamic rhythm that transcends simple visual record to achieve a unique formal and emotional complexity.

Book Discussion | The Ethnographic Optic: Jean Rouch, Chris Marker, Alain Resnais, and the Turn Inward in 1960s French Cinema


Laure Astourian's new book explores the significant ties between colonial ethnography and innovative works of 1960s French cinema. Astourian probes the emergence of a self-aware urban French ethnography in both fictional and documentary films during the era of decolonization and offers fresh readings of canonical films including Moi, un Noir (Jean Rouch, 1958), La jetée (Chris Marker, 1962), and Muriel ou le Temps d’un retour (Alain Resnais, 1963).

Poetry Reading | Soon and Wholly: Poems of a Heating Earth


New poetry by Idra Novey faces the complexities of life on a swiftly heating earth. Novey's first collection in a decade brings a lyric intimacy to the extremes of our era. The poems juxtapose sweltering days raising children in a city with moments from a rural childhood roaming free in the woods, providing a bridge between those often polarized realities. Novey's spare, contemporary fables move across the Americas, from a woman housesitting in central Chile, surrounded by encroaching fires, to a man in New York about to give birth to a panda.

Screening | Daisy: Film on Mother's Suicide - Followed by a Discussion


Narrated in Hungarian, English, and Spanish, Catalina Kulczar’s Daisy is a 30-minute poetic rumination following the months after the tragedy of Catalina Kulczar in which she lost her mother to suicide. Daisy questions what the meaning of “home” was for her mother, the daughter of Jewish immigrants and an immigrant herself. Her mother’s suicide also prompted her to explore her family’s Jewish identity and immigration history, stemming from 1940s Hungary, Nazi persecution, and the subsequent communist regime. It also questions how intergenerational trauma has percolated into the present and affected her mother and her and how it will impact future generations. The panel discussion will be moderated by publicist June Jennings, the panel discussion will include film director Catalina Kulczar and spiritual and community leader, activist and writer Yocheved Sidof.

Book Discussion | My Life as a Jew: An Austrailian Journalist's Story (online)


Born in a displaced persons’ camp two years after the end of the Holocaust, Michael Gawenda spent his childhood and teenage years at the Sholem Aleichem College in Melbourne. This shaped the sort of Jew he became — a secular Jew who loved Yiddish language and culture. Gawenda went on to become a public figure during his 40 years as a journalist, including his role as editor-in-chief of the prestigious Australian publication The Age — the only Jewish editor-in-chief in the newspaper’s history. Throughout this time, hostility towards Israel that he witnessed in his professional life sparked him to examine his own Jewish identity and his relationships with his Jewish friends, and to forensically examine the basis of the critiques of Israel. This is a discussion with Gawenda about his new autobiography, led by editor at large of the New York Jewish Week Andrew Silow-Carroll.

Book Discussion | The Dreamers: Deadly Deja Vu


Teenage Stella Grey has always felt an intense recurring sense of deja vu...often plagued by strong dreams that feel more real than her waking moments. One ill-fated morning, her dream from the night before actually comes to life, as she awakens and finds her house ransacked and her mother unconscious near their broken-in front door. Her next moments are scary, shocking, and earth-shattering as she is kidnapped and delivered to a Gothic mansion, The Manor de Rêves. With author Ryan Elizabeth Penske.

Book Discussion | The Most Human: Reconciling with My Father, Leonard Nimoy


For Adam Nimoy, living with his father -- who became internationally famous playing Spock on Star Trek -- was like living with a stranger. After years of estrangement, the son received a letter from his dad. That marked a turning point in their lives, a moment that cleared the way for a new relationship between them.

Continuing the tradition of the Afro-Puerto Rican expressions known as "plena" and "bomba", VdB brings a contemporary twist telling stories of the lived experiences from those who (for better and for worse) left the Archipelago.
