Modern Poets | The Adventures of Krazy Kat
Author: Youn, Monica; Hoberman, J.; O'Rourke, Meghan
Fri, Oct 9, 2009
:00:00 EST,
November 10, 2008
6:30 p.m.
In 1913, the cartoonist George Herriman created Krazy Kat, a comic strip that first appeared in William Randolph Hearst's New York Evening Journal. The cartoon was published in the United States until 1944, offering American and international readers constant companionship in its characters: Krazy Kat, an innocent cat of indeterminate gender; Ignatz Mouse, Krazy's antagonist; Offissa Pupp, the protective police dog; and others. This evening's program reconsiders Herriman's stories through the lens of comics and poetry. Poet Monica Youn reads her own collection of works about Ignatz, first published in The Paris Review in the summer of 2007; and J. Hoberman, senior film critic, The Village Voice, speaks about the impact of Krazy Kat on the comics medium. Meghan O'Rourke, poet, critic, and co–poetry editor, The Paris Review, moderates a discussion. This program is a collaboration between The Museum of Modern Art and The Paris Review.

HELL | From Dante to Today
Author: Bergvall, Caroline; Jacoff, Rachel; Deffenbaugh, Margaret E.; Carlson, LeRoy T.; Pinsky, Robert
Fri, Oct 9, 2009
Wednesday, November 14, 2007
Dante Alighieri's poem, The Divine Comedy, remains influential in contemporary culture. The political corruption, conflict between church and state, tests of morality, and frought love in the nine circles of the Inferno-which Dante began to write some seven hundred years ago-echo profoundly in our world today. His depiction of hell, sin, and punishment has also impacted artists from Sandro Botticelli to Robert Rauschenberg and Jake and Dinos Chapman. Caroline Bergvall, poet, and Co-Chair, Writing MFA, Milton Avery School for the Arts, Bard College; Rachel Jacoff, Margaret E. Deffenbaugh and LeRoy T. Carlson Professor in Comparative Literature and Professor of Italian, Wellesley College; and Robert Pinsky, poet, conjure these themes through readings of their own works as well as those by Dante, William Butler Yeats, T.S. Eliot, Juan Goytisolo, and others. A reception follows the reading. This program is a collaboration between The Museum of Modern Art and the Italian Cultural Institute of New York.

Who's a Filmmaker? Cinema beyond the Darkened Room
Author: Heartney, Eleanor; Taubin, Amy; Kardish, Laurence
Fri, Oct 9, 2009
Wednesday, May 6, 2009. 6:30 PM
This program examines the fluidity of boundaries in film. Art and film critics and museum curators address the idea of cinema in the art world, where attitudes toward the moving image seem to differ from those toward "movies." Eleanor Heartney, contributing editor to Art in America and Artpress, addresses how artists borrow and manipulate actual cinematic works for different ends and how they use and subvert cinematic techniques, and Amy Taubin, film critic, discusses the construction of the temporal and social experiences in both a traditional cinematic environment and in art installations. Laurence Kardish, Senior Curator, Department of Film, and organizer of the exhibition, moderates a conversation.

Eat, Sleep, and Pray | Everyday Rituals and Contemporary Art
Author: Sehgal, Tino; Mingwei, Lee
Fri, Oct 9, 2009
Ever closing the gap between art and life, many contemporary artists incorporate everyday rituals, from kissing to cooking to teaching and talking, into their performances. As a result, they transform the environments in which they situate their work-and the people whom they engage-into parts of the work itself. Join artists Tino Sehgal and Lee Mingwei as they discuss their practice. Glenn D. Lowry, director of The Museum of Modern Art, moderates a discussion.

Brown Bag Lunch Lecture | Art and Dementia
Author: Parsa, Amir
Mon, Nov 24, 2008
November 6, 2008
12:30 p.m.
This lecture investigates the interactions between dementia and various developments in modern art. The unconventional perceptions of people with dementia have inspired artistic theories, movements, and artists who have charted their own personal experiences with the disease. In addition, MoMA was one of the first museums in the world to launch acclaimed educational programs for people with Alzheimer's disease. These explorations have provided the basis for innovative artistic practices, insight into understanding various artworks, and an examination of the very nature of perception and reality.
Lecturer Amir Parsa (MA, MPhil, Columbia University) is a lecturer and educator at MoMA and is currently the Manager of the MoMA Alzheimer's Project.

6:30 p.m.
With every presidential election beginning in 1984, Antoni Muntadas and Marshall Reese have compiled and edited Political Advertisement, a historical survey of television campaign spots from 1952 to the present. This anthology, updated to include advertisements from the 2008 presidential campaign, documents the selling of the American presidency since the 1950s. As Muntadas and Reese trace the development of the TV "spot," a social and media history emerges revealing how campaign spots have become a political strategy and manipulative marketing technique. This evening, the artists debut the latest version of Political Advertisement in a premiere presentation followed by commentary by Laura Flanders, journalist, Air America host of Radio Nation, and author of Blue Grit.

Brown Bag Lunch Lecture | At the Center and at the Edge: The Contemporary Artist's Book
Author: Minsky, Richard; Belloff, Mindy; King, Ron; Campbell, Ken; Turnbull, Richard
Mon, Nov 24, 2008
October 23, 2008
12:30 p.m.
The artist's book has long served as a form that merges, seamlessly or not so seamlessly, elements of image, text, and design. There has been a veritable explosion of artists' books in the last fifteen years, perhaps as a reaction to the oft-repeated claim that the book is a doomed form in the digital age. This lecture offers a survey of recent artists' books, including work by Richard Minsky (U.S.), Mindy Belloff (U.S.), Ron King (U.K.) and Ken Campbell (U.K.), and investigates the multiple possibilities (and personalities) of a surprisingly vital mode of expression.
Lecturer Richard Turnbull (Ph.D., Institute of Fine Arts, New York University) is Chair of the Department of Art History at the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York and is a longtime lecturer at both The Museum of Modern Art and The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

6:30 p.m.
From F.T. Marinetti, the founder of the Italian Futurist movement in 1909, to Andy Warhol in the 1960s, many artists have reveled in the promotion of their own work, linking it to marketing and commerce. Others, however, resist or challenge this dynamic by instead addressing issues surrounding art and social exchange. In this program, artists Christine Hill and Rirkrit Tiravanija discuss how they create artworks for an alternative "economy." Moderated by Glenn D. Lowry, director of The Museum of Modern Art.

Brown Bag Lunch Lecture | Van Gogh and the Colors of the Night
Author: Field, Jennifer; van Gogh, Vincent
Mon, Nov 24, 2008
October 16, 2008
12:30 p.m.
This lecture provides an overview of Van Gogh and the Colors of the Night. Throughout his career, Van Gogh attempted the paradoxical task of representing night by light. His approach followed the trend set by the Impressionists of "translating" visual light effects with various color combinations. This exhibition presents new insight into Van Gogh's depictions of night landscapes, interior scenes, and the effects of both gaslight and natural light on their surroundings.
Lecturer Jennifer Field (MA, Hunter College; PhD student, Institute of Fine Arts, New York University) is a curatorial assistant in the Department of Painting and Sculpture at MoMA.

Throughout his short career, Vincent van Gogh grappled with the daunting problem of painting light at night. The exhibition Van Gogh and the Colors of the Night features depictions by the artist of twilight and nocturnal landscapes, interior scenes, and the effects of both gaslight and natural light on their surroundings. This program, held in the Museum's Sculpture Garden, presents artists and poets whose own work elicits the spirit of the night as they read a diverse selection of poetry and literature. Vija Celmins, artist, and Eliot Weinberger, writer, editor, and translator and collaborator on the book The Stars; Neil Folberg, photographer of the collection Travels with Van Gogh and the Impressionists; and Ann Lauterbach, poet, read works that Van Gogh admired by Hans Christian Andersen, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and Walt Whitman, along with poems by contemporary writers on the theme of nighttime.

12:30 p.m.
This lecture provides an overview of Kirchner and the Berlin Street. The exhibition brings together German Expressionist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner's renowned Street Scenes series, created between 1913 and 1915. Considered by many to be the highpoint of Kirchner's career as a whole, this series dates from Kirchner's Berlin period, when the effect of life in the metropolis brought about a dramatic change in his work. Shown together for the first time in New York, these works exude the vitality, decadence, and underlying mood of imminent danger that characterized Berlin on the eve of World War I.
Lecturer Gretchen L. Wagner (MA, Williams College) is a curatorial assistant in the Department of Prints and Illustrated Books at MoMA.

Conversations with Contemporary Artists | Larry Fink
Author: Fink, Larry; Biondi, Elisabeth
Mon, Nov 24, 2008

6:30 p.m.
Our social and political landscape has changed dramatically from 2001 to 2008. As a result, the November presidential election seems to be one of the most highly anticipated, eagerly awaited, and critically important in years. This fall's series invites artists working in film and photography who have their finger on the pulse, and are activating our perception of the relationship between politicians and our everyday lives.
Larry Fink's photographs document the social and political moments that become tomorrow's news. His work, which addresses topics ranging from fashion to political leaders and September 11, has appeared in The New York Times, Art in America, Vanity Fair, Vogue, Time-Life Books, The New Yorker, and The Village Voice. Most recently, he has been on the campaign trail with Senators Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama, attentive to details like gestures of the hand, the wince of the eyes, and other forms that insert mysteries into the frame. As a journalistic photographer, he works with picture editors of major publications to determine what must be covered, what is superfluous, what moments spring from inner experience not necessarily related to the primary context, and what must be left to nuance and the viewer's interpretation. Fink is currently working for Vanity Fair and is a professor at Bard College. The program is moderated by Elisabeth Biondi, Visuals Editor, The New Yorker.

This fall's series invites artists working in film and photography who have their finger on the pulse, and are activating our perception of the relationship between politicians and our everyday lives.
Shelly Silver, a New York–based artist who utilizes video, film, and photography, screens and discusses in complete world (2008), a feature-length documentary made up of street interviews done throughout New York City. Mixing political questions ("Are we responsible for the government we get?") with more broadly existential ones ("Do you feel you have control over your life?"), the film centers on the tension between individual and collective responsibility. in complete world can be seen as a user's manual for citizenship in the twenty-first century, as well as a glimpse into the opinions and self-perceptions of a diverse group of Americans. It is a testament to the people of New York City in this new millennium who freely offer thoughtful, provocative and at times tender revelations to a complete stranger, just because she asked. Silver currently teaches at the Cooper Union for the Advancement of Art and Sciences and in the MFA Department of Photography, Video and Related Media, School of Visual Arts. Sally Berger, Assistant Curator, Department of Film, The Museum of Modern Art, moderates a discussion.

Salvador DalĂ first arrived in New York in 1934 and immediately became a flamboyant part of the city's life and art scene.

Art and Perception Series | Modalities of the Visible: Understanding and Sensing Images
Author: Hyman, John; CsĂkszentmihályi, Mihály; Lopate, Leonard
Mon, Nov 24, 2008
April 5, 2008
4:00 p.m.
This multidisciplinary series of discussions features prominent artists, art historians, scientists, conservators, and others as they provide a variety of perspectives on the complex process of experiencing art. Discussions explore the ways in which the perception of a single artwork evolves over time, how artists adopt optical and perceptive strategies as a means of influencing a particular sensorial experience, and the impact of recent scientific research and color theory on art and architecture.
Understanding and engaging the viewer's senses and the ways in which they relate to the intellect is a common concern in art making today. To what extent is a viewer's intellectual and sensorial response predictable and/or malleable? How have artists and other image makers used this knowledge to create works with lasting impact? In this panel, prominent scholars discuss the psychology of the artistic experience, the ways in which artists have utilized theories of perception throughout history, and how a viewer's visual literacy and artistic enjoyment can be enhanced. Participants include John Hyman, Fellow and Praelector in Philosophy and Editor, The British Journal of Aesthetics, The Queen's College, UK, and Mihály CsĂkszentmihályi, psychologist and author of The Art of Seeing. This program is moderated by Leonard Lopate, host of The Leonard Lopate Show on WNYC.

The Café-Concert in Art and Song: The Civilians in Performance
Author: Seurat, GeoAuthor: rges; The Civilians
Mon, Nov 24, 2008
December 11, 2007
7:30 p.m.
Toward the end of his brief but influential career, Georges Seurat turned to the Parisian café-concert for subject matter, creating a significant body of work that explored the singers, musicians, and audience of this intriguing nineteenth-century urban cultural spectacle. Using these drawings by Seurat as a springboard, The Civilians, a New York–based theater company, will bring together a selection of original songs rarely performed today with projected depictions of the café-concerts by Seurat's Impressionist predecessors, such as Edouard Manet and Edgar Degas, as well as those by Seurat and his contemporary Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Interspersed between these songs—providing texture and context—will be readings from contemporary literature offering evocative descriptions of these locales.
Founded in 2001 by Artistic Director Steven Cosson, The Civilians is an innovative theater company that produces original work from creative investigations of real life. The company has created four shows—Canard, Canard, Goose?, Gone Missing, The Ladies, and (I am) Nobody's Lunch—which have been performed in New York and at theaters nationally and internationally. The Obie- and Edinburgh Festival Fringe First Award–winning company recently made its commercial Off-Broadway debut with Gone Missing at the Barrow Street Theatre; its run has been extended through January 2008. Two projects currently in development, Paris Commune, which loosely relates to their MoMA performance, and This Beautiful City, which explores the Evangelical Christian movement, will premiere in the coming year.

This symposium seeks to investigate the historical and contemporary artists' attempts to deploy art as a means of political force and to critically engage with radically changing conditions of modern and contemporary life. This tradition stretches across media and time, from the visual strategies of the historical avant-garde in the early twentieth century to more recent artistic work emerging in opposition to globalism, and the ensuing political, economic, and military domination of the new world's super-powers. Selected from an international pool of applicants, six students presented their papers at the symposium.

Christian Marclay: Graffiti Composition
Author: Melvin Gibbs, Mary Halvorson, Lee Ranaldo, Vernon Reid, and Elliott Sharp
Wed, Sep 27, 2006
A performance of Christian Marclay's musical score Graffiti Composition. In 1996 the artist plastered more than 5,000 blank musical notation sheets in public places throughout Berlin during a month-long sound festival, thus randomly enabling the public to fill them freely with musical notations, scribblings, or anything else. Marclay photographed the graffitied sheets, selected 150 from the group, and compiled them into a portfolio that is meant to be used by musicians to perform. Graffiti Composition has been interpreted by a variety of musical ensembles in the last few years, including at the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin in 2001, the Contemporary Arts Center, New Orleans in 2002, and the Barbican Centre, London, in 2005. For this one-time performance, composer/producer/sound artist Elliott Sharp leads a musical ensemble comprising five renowned guitar players-Melvin Gibbs, Mary Halvorson, Lee Ranaldo, Vernon Reid, and Sharp-who will interpret the musical score.
