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 10 mayors, beginning first with Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia in 1942. Today, Gracie Mansion is occupied by the de Blasio family, which has opened its doors in the spirit of the administration's motto: one city, rising together. In keeping with that theme, Mayor de Blasio and First Lady Chirlane McCray have introduced a new art installation, titled “Windows on the City: Looking Out at Gracie’s New York.” Tours take place at 10am, 11am, 2pm, and 3pm.

Author Reading | Maria Rewakowicz discusses her book Ukraine's Quest for Identity: Embracing Cultural Hybridity in Literary Imagination, 1991–2011


Cultural hybridity, identity negotiation, and contested language politics are all hallmarks of transitional experiences affecting postcolonial societies. Examining major works of literature produced in Ukraine during the first two decades after independence, this pioneering study situates the post-independence literary process within a grid of specific contexts, focusing especially on how regionalism, gender and language issues, as well as social marginalization and popular culture, are reflected in literary works following the collapse of the Soviet empire.

Opening Reception | Laura Hunt, Miles Huston, Sven Sachsalber: A Group Exhibition


Laura Hunt's paintings look the way thinking feels. Like thoughts forming and cascading, fragments of spoken phrases combine with TVs, light switches, cherries, staccato lines and shapeshifting figures on reflective red spandex. Through mark-making reminiscent of the cadence of a voice, Hunt juxtaposes the absurd and mundane, the satiating and stripped-down, the familiar and uncomfortable. Her paintings transmute into imagery the anxieties and pleasures of being. Miles Huston's Verse Drawings are energetic in their making and in their appearance. Huston implements a designed system of lines and color to create an irregular repeating tiled pattern of biomorphic forms. The result is a work of quiet yet palpable intensity, a pleasing composition without a single focal point that draws the eye to follow it's many meandering pathways to soothing effect. Deeply rooted in performance, Sven Sachsalber's paintings are a meditation on mental and physical endurance: a meticulously executed monochrome, the color of a Buddhist monastic robe; a hasty Blinky Palermo approximation, turned 90 degrees five times; a deflated Bogner racing suit, hanging in space. Sachsalber's presence looms in each work.

Opening Reception | Borders, Dreams & Beauty: 6 Solo Photography Shows


Peter Agron: melancholia - This is a selection of black and white gelatin silver prints. All images created from 35mm film negatives on Ilford Art paper and toned in tea. Lawrence Gottesman: How to Disappear Completely - "There are no people visible, but their traces are everywhere: in a basement light left on; in a locked gate; in each orderly and oppressively constructed structure. These artifacts tell us more than images of people possibly could, but essential gaps remain. These absences are critical, as much as rests are needed for a series of notes to go from mere tones to music. Listen carefully." Alain Licari: Both Sides (pictured) - "In Both Sides, several diptychs compare two spaces: the beaches of San Diego (United States) and of Tijuana (Mexico) separated by a wall. On each side of this physical border, I searched out correspondences and differences of these geographically continuous spaces. This comparison inaugurates a series of reflections, spawning realizations that play at the edge of this unsettling frontier." James McCracken: American Beauty - "All of my pictures --- whether involving some planned effort or simply taken 'on the fly' --- reflect my immediate environment and a particular social relationship or multiple, interwoven relationships. And, the pictures represent --- are synonymous to --- my emotional response to this environment/social sphere. Each picture has its own backstory, based on my relationship with the subject(s); the relationship spawns and nurtures the image (or series of images), forming its emotional core." Fernando Sancho: African Dream - "These pictures were taken in March 2016 while I was on assignment in Monrovia, Liberia. The optimism, hope and resilience I experienced was overwhelming. I learned much from watching daily life. I experienced grace and joy. The ordinary was extraordinary. Welcome to West Africa." Richard Wilcox: A Portfolio of New York Photographs - "Living in New York for most of my life has afforded me the opportunity to explore and experience the city's rich architectural heritage, which is the primary resource for much of my work. The purpose of this portfolio is not to document architecture but to observe and record tightly framed views and geometries I find in the built environment."

Poetry Reading | Poets Read: Frank Bidart / Eleanor Chai


“Creature coterminous with thirst,” Frank Bidart calls himself in a poem from Half-Light: Collected Poems 1965-2016, which won the 2017 National Book Award for Poetry. “Bidart’s fiercely original poetry…has found again and again an entry into the heartbreak, pathos, plangency, rage, and depression into which the longing for perfection will lead anyone who finds compromise intolerable” (Helen Vendler). Eleanor Chai’s debut, Standing Water, “creates a personal mythology of loss and longing rooted in a primal wounding: the separation of mother and child” (Natasha Trethewey), and even though “the void can never be overcome, the struggle unfurls as a beautiful catharsis―haunting, suffocating, and stunningly rendered” (Publishers Weekly). Event is free and open to the public. Information: english@barnard.edu

Lecture | Repair: Cixous, Derrida, and a Split Manuscript


The decades-long friendship between Jacques Derrida and Hélène Cixous intensified around the time their archives were created in the 1990’s and 2000’s, when their exchanges dovetail around intimacy, survival, and legacy. This talk tracks the manuscripts of Voiles and Circonfession as they travel between Derrida, Cixous, and their archives, showing how the writers’ attempts to put the manuscripts back together can be seen as a form of reparative reading. Their practice of sharing manuscripts offers new perspectives on notions of provenance and life writing. Lecturer Laura Hughes is a visiting assistant professor in the Department of French Literature, Thought, and Culture.

Talk | Total Language: Cartoonist Steve Ditko at 90


Ask a person today who created Spider-Man, and they’ll probably tell you Marvel Comics, that inescapable entertainment brand. Some of them might say Stan Lee, the man whose profile is highest in mass media. Others, perhaps fewer, will know about Steve Ditko (b. 1927), a cartoonist of an unusual trajectory: his vision and craft gave concrete form to commercial characters still adored across the globe, half a century later, but his passion would soon pour into deeply personal, experimental, and furiously divisive works, comics emboldened by the freedoms of artist ownership, yet antagonistic toward the compromised values of society.
