Symposium | I Can See It All Even with My Eyes Closed: The Life and Art of Madalena Santos Reinbolt (online)


A one-day virtual seminar showcasing new research into Madalena Santos Reinbolt’s artistic practice.   A day of talks and presentations held in both English and Portuguese, is the first large-scale program exploring the life, art, influences, and creative processes of Madalena Santos Reinbolt (Vitória da Conquista, Brazil, 1912–1976, Petrópolis, Brazil). The program will focus on the trajectory of Santos Reinbolt, an Afro-Brazilian painter and embroiderer who migrated in search of employment from rural Northeastern Brazil, where she grew up, to the larger cities of Salvador, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, and Petrópolis in the second half of the 20th century. She chronicled local landscapes, people, and rituals from both her past and present while witnessing the rapid industrialization of her country in the second half of the 20th century. Looking at Santos Reinbolt’s vibrant depictions of her social, natural, and spiritual environment, speakers will contextualize her practice as an expression of creative freedom and resistance within the complex climate of post-war Brazil.

Tour | Tour of Gracie Mansion, Home of New York's Mayors


In 1799, a prosperous New York merchant named Archibald Gracie built a country house overlooking a bend in the East River, five miles north of the then-New York City limits. Little did he know that, more than 200 years later, his home would be serving as the official residence of the First Family of New York City - a place where history is made, not merely recorded. As a historic house museum run by the Parks Department, sitting on 11 acres of grounds now known as Carl Schurz Park, Gracie Mansion has served as the home of 11 mayors, beginning first with Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia in 1942. Start times: 10:30am, 12pm, 1:30pm

Author Reading | Author Seán Hewitt Reads and Discusses His Novel, Open, Heaven


Acclaimed young Irish poet Seán Hewitt discusses his debut novel Open, Heaven, reminiscent of Garth Greenwell and Justin Torres in the intensity of its evocation of sexual awakening. Set in a remote village in the north of England, Open, Heaven unfolds over the course of one year in which two teenage boys meet and transform each other’s lives. Open, Heaven is a novel about desire, yearning, and the terror of first love. With the striking economy and lyricism that animate his work as a poet, Hewitt has written a mesmerizing hymn to boyhood, sensuality, and love in all its forms. A truly exceptional debut.

Lecture | Yan Satunovsky and the Politics of Multilingualism (in-person and online)


The poet Yan Satunovsky (1913-1982) was born to a Jewish family in Ekaterinoslav (now Dnipro in Ukraine), in the Russian Empire’s Pale of Settlement. He began writing just before the onset of WWII; the war, in which he served in the Red Army and which drove his family from their hometown (by then Dnepropetrovsk) forever, emerged as a fixed topic in his poetry while he was fighting and for the rest of his life. Living outside Moscow in the post-war decades, Satunovsky connected with the unofficial poets of Lianozovo, whose poetics curiously dovetailed with his own: their proclivity for minimalism and simple, often crude language expressed a fundamental skepticism toward the high-flown rhetoric and empty signification of official Soviet discourse, literary and otherwise. Nowadays Satunovsky is usually read in their company, but Ainsley Morse proposes to discuss an aspect of Satunovsky’s poetics that diverges from, or intensifies, the Lianozovo tendencies. Most significantly, his work shows a persistent tension in relation to the Russian language in which it is written. In addition to his unflinching engagement with wartime and postwar trauma, his verse-level negotiations with cultural, linguistic, political and individual identity resonate with pressing questions of our time as well.  Speaker Ainsley Morse teaches in the Literature department at UC-San Diego and translates from Russian, Ukrainian and the languages of former Yugoslavia.

Lecture | Soviet Yogis – Who Were They? (in-person and online)


The history of yoga’s metamorphoses from marginalized spiritual-militaristic tradition in India to commercialized mega-business associated with neoliberal notions of personal wellness has received a lot of scholarly attention in the West. But the 20 th century transformation of yoga into an exportable mind-body practice took a different route into the Soviet Union, where yoga was alternately banned, and officially embraced at the highest levels. In this talk, I use the framework of contemporary ecological economics and Degrowth theory to show how in the post-war period, Soviet authorities could accommodate yoga as technology of growth and expansion (for instance, to help the cosmonauts conquer space), but not as a rejection of the fundamental imperative of extraction-based growth and ‘progress’ pursued by both sides of the Cold War. In the time provided, I will try to highlight a few case studies, as well as encourage us to think about the connection between yoga as a practice to regulate individual metabolism and yoga as a commentary on the Marx-inspired notion of ‘metabolic rift.’ Speaker Yvonne Howell is Professor of Russian and Global Studies at the University of Richmond.

Lecture | Thinking About Absence in Museums


In this talk, Benedicte Savoy will look at the emptiness that art and cult objects leave in their place of origin when, in the course of history, through armed conflict, colonial occupation or economic asymmetries, they have been moved to be displayed in (mostly Western) museums - with all the political, economic and epistemological implications that this entails. Bénédicte Savoy is Professor of Modern Art History at the Technische Universität Berlin.

Opening Reception | Willem de Kooning: Endless Painting


Curated by Cecilia Alemani, director and chief curator of High Line Art, this exhibition comprises paintings dating from 1944 through 1986 and two sculptures: Clamdigger (1972), and the monumental Standing Figure (1969-84). A pioneering figure of the postwar era, de Kooning explored the expressive potential of color, line, and space and continuously challenged the boundaries between figuration and abstraction. Through the considered placement of late paintings including Untitled V (1982), on loan from the Museum of Modern Art, and Untitled XIX (1984) among works of the preceding decades, the exhibition foregrounds visual motifs that recurred throughout de Kooning's career. De Kooning often reworked his canvases, reincorporating passages from earlier compositions by tracing shapes he wanted to preserve onto vellum, and even changing their orientation multiple times during their gestation. It was through revisiting and revising his compositions that he developed a consistent but flexible vocabulary of colors and gestures rooted in figuration. "A restless explorer of the canvas, de Kooning never stopped interrogating the possibilities of what painting could be," Alemani notes. "As a curator, it is deeply rewarding to grapple with the constant process of artistic reinvention and self-interrogation that animates his creative trajectory, especially through closer examination of his late works." The exhibition's title, Endless Painting, references this enduring, ever-evolving visual language and the artist's professed decision to "just stop" rather than formally finish paintings, perhaps seeking a more expansive definition of the medium itself. During the reception, Alemani will moderate a conversation exploring the continued impact of de Kooning's paintings and working methods on artists of today. Exhibition on view from April 15th through June 14th.

Gallery Talk | Conversation on Inspiration between Artist Chris Martin and Writer/Curator/Editor Raymond Foye


The discussion will focus on Martin's inspirations, and his process curating his exhibition, Love Poems, which features the work of Julian Schnabel, Marsden Hartley, Joyce Pensato, Peter Gallo, and many more! Regarding the exhibition, Martin says, "Many years ago I was alone in a house lost in thought looking down at a hay field in the Catskill mountains. I could see McCumber Farm, the distant Armstrong fields, and the steep silhouette of Dry Brook Ridge. An autumn breeze came in from the treetops, and as if in a dream - a man I knew appeared - slowly dragging a large wooden rowboat with a rope behind him through the tall grass. I recognized the old boat - now quite rotten - from my childhood. I watched transfixed as the bow cut through the dry grass, leaving a wake of flattened grass as it floated through the waving field. At that moment I loved that boat and loved the circling turkey buzzards. I loved the dry naples yellow of the grass. I loved that man and the hum of a distant chainsaw. I even loved my own loneliness. I hurried to help old John Asher drag that boat on its way to the burn pile at the bottom of the field."

Classical Music | Violin Duos by Bach and Bartok (in-person and online)


In this eclectic program, Duo Sapientia seeks to explore the resonances that emerge from duo violin music from three different periods, the Renaissance, the Baroque, and the Twentieth Century. The four composers featured -- Thomas Morley, Orlando Gibbons, J. S. Bach and Bela Bartok -- all share contrapuntal textures and fragmentary, conversational gestures. The interplay between modal music and traditional harmony in these pieces creates intriguing interactions for the listeners and players alike. Duo Sapientia was formed in the spring of 2024 during rehearsal breaks in a Buxtehude project. In true amateur style, Wolman introduced Ahn to Gibbons duos and discovered their mutual sensibilities over phrasing, gestures, and general musick-ing. Since then, they have been scheming to collaborate on various musical projects -- most notably, their current Bartok-focused endeavor, as well as one centered on Hildegard.

Theater | The Imaginary Invalid: Moliere's Comedy-Ballet Starring Broadway Actor


Argan is ill. But is he? Argan is dying. But aren't we all? Argan wants absolute control. But is that ever achievable? After a series of upside down attempts to snap him out of it, a solution is found. But will it save him? The Imaginary Invalid is the last play that legendary French playwright Moliere wrote and was originally conceived as a Comedy-Ballet where theater, dance, and music are intertwined. It explores the fear of disease and the exploitation it breeds through infinitely humorous dialogue and in-your-face satire. This production will feature original choreography by FlexN dancer Cal Hunt, original music by cellist Johnathan Moore, and stars Tony and Olivier Award nominee Sahr Ngaujah. Director and Translator: Lucie Tiberghien Choreographer and Dancer: Cal Hunt Composer and Cellist: Johnathan Moore Cast: Dante Bonner, Mary Bacon, Rory Furey-King, Doron JePaul, Naomi Lorrain, Sahr Ngaujah, Shayvawn Webster

Book Discussion | Book Launch and Conversation with Artist Jane Euler


This event is a book launch for Exhibitionism by Jane Euler. The artist will be in conversation with Jay Sanders. Exhibitionism documents over fifteen years in the working life of Jana Euler, whose witty and exuberant painting practice is as stylistically varied as it is critically incisive—always attuned to the social and material bases of her chosen medium. This account highlights Euler’s unique approach to producing exhibitions, which the artist has likened to a kind of “body, made up of all the parts that go into the different aspects of exhibiting.” From her first forays as a student to major solo presentations at the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, WIELS, Brussels, and more, Exhibitionism traces her evolving practice through her own memories and studio archive: surfacing invitation cards, exhibition texts, posters and diagrams, alongside new drawings and collages made especially for the book. "This book is dedicated to my practice of exhibition making. I often think of an exhibition as a body, made up of all the parts that go into the different aspects of exhibiting. Exhibitionism does not give an exhaustive account of my work, but rather is a subjective expression of my own retrospection." —Jana Euler

Talk | Thirty Years Later: The Oklahoma City Bombing and Lessons Learned from the Response


The Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City was bombed on April 19, 1995, killing 167 people. In response, FEMA activated 11 Urban Search and Rescue teams from around the country, including New York Task Force 1. The 56-member task force was comprised of members of the FDNY, NYPD and EMS, nine of whom were later killed responding to the World Trade Center on 9/11. As we mark the 30th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing, Museum Director Clifford Chanin is joined by retired FDNY Battalion Chief Stephen Spall, retired EMS Chief of Department Charles Wells and retired NYPD ESU Detective Kenneth Winkler to discuss their response to both unprecedented attacks, the challenges faced in urban search and rescue operations, and the profound lessons learned that continue to shape emergency response today.

Classical Music | Deep Listening: Collaborative Meditation and Deep Listening for Earth Day


Juilliard Community Engagement Fellows lead a live performance inspired by the pioneering works of Pauline Oliveros. Through guided listening exercises and interactive musicmaking, participants are invited to explore a deeper connection to themselves, one another, and the natural world. Drawing on Oliveros’ signature deep listening practices, this participatory event offers a unique opportunity to cultivate presence, celebrate collective creativity, and honor Earth Day in an immersive performance experience. Deep listening is a term coined by American composer and artist Pauline Oliveros to distinguish between involuntary hearing and conscious listening. The works on this program invite us all, performers and audience alike, to become more aware of the soundscape: our sonic environment, from the physical world around us to the vibrant world inside all people. In the middle portion of the program, everyone is invited to participate in deep listening prompts that will be distributed. The awareness that these works set in motion enables the group to take a moment to cherish, wonder at, and more deeply understand the world, so that everyone may better take care of it and themselves.

Opening Reception | Scott Covert's "Eternal Party of the Passed" Gravestone Rubbing Art Exhibition: Another Dead Supreme


In his show, Another Dead Supreme, Scott Covert's subjects are either singular in focus or are groupings of topically related or entirely disconnected folks who share one common denominator: they now belong to the earth. His singular subjects either stoically state a name once or echo it many times over. In his composite canvases, Covert's subjects take on new lives and fraternize with lovers, peers, strangers, co-conspirators, and enemies in an eternal party of the passed. Since 1985, Covert has traveled around the world making gravestone rubbings on both canvas and paper in which he layers names and epitaphs into expressionistic compositions. His colorful arrangements frequently contain multiple individuals both famous and infamous, which he gathers from cemeteries in vastly disparate locations. This project is equal parts earnest homage, collection of celebrity ephemera, subversive performance art, and travel diary. To make his "Monument Paintings," Covert mounts canvas over tombstones before using wax oil crayon in a frottage technique to transfer names and epitaphs to its surface. These canvases are often built up over the course of years, sometimes decades, as Covert makes multiple trips in order to gather all of the rubbings he deems essential. Once back in his studio, he further adorns the canvas with oil paint and sometimes glitter. The exhibition will be open from April 18th through May 24th.

Lecture | Understanding the Look of Love in the Art of Van Gogh


Art historian Judy Sund provides an insightful lecture on Vincent van Gogh. Van Gogh was a routinely rejected suitor and often disappointed lover whose images of courting couples constitute an unexpected leitmotif in his oeuvre. Born of wistful reverie rather than lived experience, his images of romantic love recall Medieval love gardens, Flemish party scenes, and Rococo fêtes galantes, though the lovers Van Gogh depicted are his own working-class contemporaries, and some of them so closely resemble the artist as to suggest a degree of self-projection. Shaped by contemporary literature and avant-garde Parisian painting, Van Gogh’s updated takes on the traditional Garden of Love – some set in public parks, others in moonlit dreamscapes – are routinely enhanced by evocative color schemes that the artist deployed to expressive effect. Opposing hues, he explained, “make each other shine” when paired, and “complete each other like man and wife.” The motif of lovers, which Van Gogh deemed especially “poetic,” inspired him to step outside his usual reliance on direct observation and produce some of his most fanciful paintings.

Party | Yo-Yo Contest: Spectate or Compete!


The city's most thrilling yo-yo event for both amateurs and professionals will be held in the main area, giving all visitors the opportunity to watch classic picture tricks, off string maneuvers, counterweight play, dual handed skills, looping or string trickery, and fully free-style routines set to music. Starting with an electrifying, double-elimination amateur bracket, you can watch contenders battle it out to secure a spot in the pro bracket. The competition will be fierce, and every throw counts as participants climb their way to the top. The pro bracket proceeds as a single-elimination challenge, where each 45-second throw brings the competitors closer to the final round--a full-length two-minute freestyle where a panel of expert judges will crown the new champion who will earn a seed to the final round at the 2025 New York State Yo-Yo Contest. Whether you plan to join the competition or just stop by and enjoy the show, you must register for admission to the event. Access to the museum venue is included with this event. Access to the additional historic spaces and exhibitions on view is not included with this event. Note: Access to the venue involves climbing a few stairs, walking up an angled walkway, and descending a few stairs. The lower areas are accessible via stairs, while the upper area requires navigating steep ladder-like stairs.

Talk | Artist Conversation about "Organized Chaos" Cermic Works


Artists Sharif Farrag, Jake Troyli, and Chase Hall join in conversation to discuss Farrag's current exhibition Hybrid Moments, held within the exhibition.  The devil is made of fire and people are made of mud. Ceramics are a mixture of the two. -Sharif Farrag He makes this analogy to explain how teachings from the Islamic school he attended on Saturdays as a child in Los Angeles' San Fernando Valley have inspired his approach to ceramic sculpture.  Farrag’s work has been described as “nothing you have ever seen before.” His approach to ceramics is reminiscent of the freestyling in music like jazz and hip hop, an improvisational style that encompasses multiple references. His works are a diverse assemblage of historic and pop culture influences: patterns reminiscent of Islamic abstraction are juxtaposed with cartoon-like faces that peer out of crevices. There are ancient Egyptian gods, clocks, and regular appearances of the Pink Panther. Farrag breaks the symmetry generally associated with ceramic sculpture. Its complex composition needs to be seen from above and all the way around. Each work encompasses an immense tapestry of artistic decisions. There are hidden passages that emerge only after repeated viewings. The works are also infused with humor. Its craft and its fascinating assemblage of imagery inspires awe but is also designed to induce laughter. Farrag has a maximalist approach to his creations. He thinks of his compositions as “organized chaos.”

Opening Reception | Doors as Complex Entities: Pathfinders


Marisa Takal’s exhibition of new work, Pathfinders, stages nine painted doors in concert with one another. The doors explode with hallucinatory color: lush hues skate across their surfaces in configurations ranging from fractal, to liquid, to luminous. What is inside, and what is outside? Pathfinders troubles these distinctions, presenting doors as complex entities in their own right rather than utilitarian devices. Whatever the door, separation is implicit – between interior and exterior, public and private, between free and captive, life and death. The twentieth century saw the mass production of doors as a means of both separation and security – in the postwar suburban home, but also in the prison, the asylum, and the hospital. Pathfinders recontextualizes this era of standardization. Hung side by side, the doors are liberated from the labor of shutting, locking, and trapping. Both sides are visible and vibrant. The distinction between inside and outside is moot. No longer instrumentalized towards the work of securitization or partition, Takal’s doors hang together in affective harmony. If these doors were once closed, Takal’s emanations have picked the locks, setting dynamite to their mechanisms of enclosure. To put words to these doors both reduces and confines them.  Exhibition on view from April 19th through June 7th.

Concert | The Potluck: Concert Version of a Musical by a Guggenheim Fellow


A mind-expanding concert performance of the latest work by Lucille Lortel Award winner and Guggenheim Fellow César Alvarez, created in collaboration with designer and visual artist Emily Orling. Alvarez was born into a community of communist labor organizers who had survived the brutal murders of five of their members by the KKK in 1979—known as the Greensboro Massacre. Thirty-six years later, Alvarez has crafted The Potluck, a musical about ghosts, queerness, how to recuperate from trauma that happened to you before you were even born, and also capitalism.
