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

Talk | Weaponizing Memory Politics in Hungary (in-person and online)


A discussion with Tamás Stark, senior research fellow at the Institute of History, Research Center for the Humanities in Budapest. Moderated by Christopher Harwood. The current Hungarian regime’s policy is vociferously anti-Western and anti-American, while pursuing friendly policies towards authoritarian regimes such as Russia, Turkey and China. This policy has won the support of a large part of the population. This supportive public attitude is a strange phenomenon in a country that is a member of NATO and the EU, a county traditionally oriented towards the West, whose struggles for independence and for democracy were crushed by Russia/the Soviet Union. In this presentation, Stark would like to show how the current regime has used the memory politics to slowly persuade the public to abandon values that were generally accepted 10-15 years ago, for which generations fought. The memory politics of the current regime is rooted in old theories and concepts. These are built on myths and real or presumed grievances of the Hungarian nation. These old and renewed theories always portray Hungarians as victims, who always have to struggle with foreign enemies and foreign ideologies for survival. This view that Hungarians have always been victims throughout their more than a thousand years of history exempts the nation from facing its past, and exempts it from its responsibility in the defeats and traumas it went through. Tamás Stark is senior research fellow at the Institute of History, Research Center for the Humanities in Budapest.

Dance Performance | Dance on Film: One & One Other (online thru Apr 24)


In a bizarre play between reality and absurdist fantasy, One & One Other is a dance film offering a window into the secret world that exists on the fringes of our late-night consciousness. At the heart of the film is the mind’s ability to transport us away from the mundane, habitual rhythm of life into the incongruous realm of our imagination; a place that oscillates between the fantastic and the harrowing. One & One Other is Shawn Fitzgerald Ahern and Emilie Leriche’s fifth collaboration together, driven by a shared ambition to push the boundaries of film and dance and uncover how the two media might meet, intersect, and disrupt each other.

Screening | Dantza: A Story About Dance


Using the language of Basque dance, as wielded by the imagination of a folklorist-choreographer, a sculptor of spectacular visions, and a master screenwriter-director of cinema, Dantza tells a story of how culture evolved from prehistoric tribes to the celebrants of a contemporary wedding. Following the screening, the award-winning poet Elizabeth Macklin, and the New York-based choreographer of dance, theater, and opera Christopher Caines will join dance critic Mindy Aloff in a discussion sparked by the passage on Dantza in Aloff's new book, Why Dance Matters. A book signing with Mindy Aloff will take place after the event.

Lecture | Lupus as an Operating System (online)


Poet Cyrée Jarelle Johnson explores the way anti-Blackness, trauma, and environmental degradation converge to create bodies that internalize overcorrection, resulting in disablement, debility, and disability. Viewing systemic disabilities through the lens of cyborg studies, Johnson uses their background in library and information science to consider the role overcorrection and planned obsolescence play in contemporary American culture.

Film | Black Russians: The Red Experiment (2018)


Filmmaker Yelena Demikovsky will present part one of her new, much talked about documentary film project. The film centers on the life trajectories of Black American sojourners in the Soviet Union during the first half of the 20th century. Inspired by the antiracist rhetoric of Soviet communists, these individuals fled American racism and Jim Crow segregation. But did they find the freedom they sought? Did they and their descendants harbor any regrets about that fateful decision to leave the United States? The film brings up the historical and personal complexities of these incredible life stories. Part one introduces the main character, Yelena Khanga, a well-known Black Russian TV personality of the 1990s through mid-2000s whose grandparents were among the hopeful migrants. Her historical narrative unfolds throughout the film. This journey begins with the turbulent historical events in the Soviet Union and America in the 1920s and 1930s

Discussion | Netflix's Transatlantic: Creator and Cast Discuss the Series (online)


Moderator Annette Insdorf hosts an online conversation with the creator and cast of Transatlantic, the 7-part limited series premiering April 7 on Netflix. Set in 1940-1941 and shot entirely on location in Marseille, France, it's based on Julie Orringer's novel about the Emergency Rescue Committee, The Flight Portfolio, which was inspired by the real-life adventures of Varian Fry (Cory Michael Smith, Gotham), Mary Jayne Gold (Gillian Jacobs, Community) and Albert Hirschman (Lucas Englander, The Witcher). The Creator/Showrunner Anna Winger - who also created the Netflix series Unorthodox (2020) - will join cast members Gillian Jacobs, Cory Michael Smith, Lucas Englander, Deleila Piasko, and Corey Stoll. In Nazi-occupied France, ERC members risked their lives to save over 2000 refugees from the Nazis during World War II. Among the targets were some of Europe's leading artists and thinkers, including Hannah Arendt, Marcel Duchamp, and Marc Chagall. The young ERC heroes forged an escape route across the Pyrenees while protecting many victims at the Villa Air-Bel. Despite the backdrop of danger and suspense, Transatlantic is filled with humor - in what Winger called a "screwball melodrama."
