Classical Music | J.S.Bach's Goldberg Variations
“Prepared for the soul’s delight of all music lovers…” That is how Johann Sebastian Bach inscribed the title page of his “Goldberg” Variations. This idea surely resonated in the spirit of Jerome Robbins, when he choreographed his own ballet masterwork set to Bach’s “Goldberg.” The New York Classical Players present Dmitry Sitkovetsky's string trio transcription of Bach’s “Goldberg" Variations, accompanied by a digital collage of Jerome Robbins’ original paintings, sketches, and photographs.

Screening | The Untold History of the United States (2012): A Documentary by Oliver Stone
Re-examination of under-reported events in American history by the Oscar winning filmmaker. The screening of “Johnson, Nixon & Vietnam: Reversal of Fortune,” Chapter 7 will be held. In chapter 7 the hellish nature of the Vietnam War causes the Amerian public to see the limits of modern military power, when faced with thick jungles and guerrilla style warfare. Richard Nixon's administration shows its true methods and causes deep introspection in the American political atmosphere. 120 min. Starring: Alan Shearman, Jim Ward. The ten-part series is supplemented by a 750-page companion book, The Untold History of the United States, also written by Stone and Kuznick, released on Oct 30, 2012 by Simon & Schuster. The series has been said to be reminiscent of the famed British Thames Television series The World at War (1973–74). With the exception of an on-camera introduction and conclusion by Oliver Stone, the series contains no interview subjects. Instead, each episode consists of archival material: stock film, photographs, video and audio recordings, computer generated maps and diagrams, clips from fictional movies, and Stone's voiceover narration. Historical quotations and writings from various figures are read by voice actors.

Concert | CANCELLED***Experimental Soundscapes with Hints of Folk and Hip-Hop***CANCELLED
***THIS EVENT HAD BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO THE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN*** Artist Nicholas Galanin performs experimental songs and soundscapes that include hints of folk and hip-hop with his band Indian Agent. Historically, the Indian Agent was a post filled with settlers appointed by the colonial U.S. government to control indigenous populations. These non-indigenous Indian Agents managed and enforced oppression of indigenous civilization throughout Turtle Island. The Indian Agent once oversaw the rape, murder and brainwashing, of minds, bodies, souls, land and culture in the name of the United States of America. This true history of the Indian Agent is intentionally shrouded in mystery along with truths about the spread of the sickness known as manifest destiny.

Opening Reception | Revolution Starts at Home: Tangible Paintings
Chelsea Gibson paints very tangible portraits of people and objects in their homes. From this stems a deeper, reflexive awareness of the performance of living that defines "home" as a state of harmony-as the alignment of person, place, object, and time. Whether in her own home or someone else's, Gibson's portraits and still lives express feelings of loss and love, empathy, and acceptance of the human condition.

Opening Reception | Untitled: Self-Portaits of Comfortable Despair
Untitled is a series of self-portraits borne through the artist’s internal processing of his naturalization as an American citizen and subsequently what it means being a queer black man in America. Vulnerable, naked, hanging and white-washed with eyes open, communicating (to those willing to truly see him) a sense of quiet almost comfortable despair. Ricardo Horatio Nelson is a Jamaican born queer artist in self-imposed asylum in New York. A fashion and portrait photographer, he uses the medium as a way of studying, looking, and perceiving his subjects' humanity to cultivate an environment of empathy which embraces the vulnerability of the human experience, opening the pathway to understand his own.
