Symposium | The Weight of Photography


Has photography become weightless? In the midst of an increasingly global and digital culture, can we still talk about photography as a distinct entity? Should museum departments, exhibitions, schools and academic classes continue to be devoted to photography alone? The Weight of Photography will explore philosophical and historical questions regarding the nature of photographic representation. Featuring presentations by scholars such as Willem Elias, Johan Swinnen, Luc Deneulin, and Tamara Berghmans of the Free University of Brussels alongside curators such as Chris Phillips from International Center for Photography, this symposium offers a distinctively international perspective on photography's identity just as it has become particularly uncertain. Moderated by Geoffrey Batchen.

Staged Reading | Walter Stepp's Mark Twain's Blues: Rewriting Huck Finn


Mark Twain dreams that an older Huck Finn and Jim (the slave Huck helped to escape) "return" to bawl him out for betraying them at the end of his so-called masterpiece, The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Now older and wiser, Huck and Jim help Twain face his demons by rewriting the book as it was meant to be written -- and giving everybody the better ending they deserve. The lyrics of this new musical are based on Mark Twain's own words.

Opening Reception | 2 Solo Shows: Joseph Smolinski's Beginning of the End / Chris Coffin's Montauk


This new body of work marks the expansion of Smolinski’s focus. Over the past few years, Smolinski created a world in which cellular communication towers disguised as trees infiltrated the landscape. There, technology proved victorious through these hybrid forms. In the new works, Smolinski visualizes a turning of the tide, where animals and nature play more active roles in their fate. There is also a site-specific window installation by Coffin. He will use the exterior windows to create one large, glowing Duratrans piece depicting the undulating coastline of Montauk.

Opening Reception | Photography: Sarah Palmer's As A Real House


The first solo exhibition of photographs by Palmer. It culls images from Palmer’s series of the same title, which evolved from previous work that sought memory, lost time, and hints of the absent-present in landscapes, rooms, and objects. The work explores the artist’s futile attempt to study time by stopping it mid-decay, and traces of her search for the possible and impossible within the medium. Sarah Palmer was born in 1977 in San Francisco and currently lives and works in Brooklyn. She was awarded an Aaron Siskind Foundation Fellowship in 2007. Her work is currently featured in the exhibition 31 Women in Art Photography at Affirmation Arts in New York.

Author Reading | Elisa New discusses her book Jacob's Cane: A Jewish Family's Journey from the Four Lands of Lithuania to the Ports of London and Baltimore


When Harvard English Professor New held her great-grandfather Jacob Levy's cane in her hands for the first time in 1997, its elegant, finely crafted design led her to realize for the first time that her family's story was not the standard coming-to-America tale she had long assumed. Inspired to search beyond what her parents and aunts had revealed of her family's past, she would learn that Levy's was indeed no Tevye the Milkman story.

Lecture | The Documentary Value of Repairs to the Hwarot, the Korean Bridal Robe


With Kisook Suh, Assistant Conservator in the Department of Textile Conservation at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. The Hwarot is one of the most representative Korean bridal robes from the Joseon dynasty (A.D. 1392-1910). It is made of fine red silk and embellished with embroidered flowers and auspicious symbolic motifs with colorful silk threads. Since the Hwarot was the most sumptuous bridal robe, not many examples from the Joseon dynasty are known to be extant. This lecture will introduce several Hwarots from the collections of a few museums in North America and England: Brooklyn Museum of Art, the Field Museum, the Peabody Essex Museum, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, and the Victoria & Albert Museum. There also will be a discussion on the repair stitches and sewing patches of the Hwarots, regarding their documentary value: resources for their provenance as well as records of women’s work related to the wedding custom of the time.

It is the story of a broken friendship and a family that has fallen apart under the strain of differing political convictions. In one narrative, two Jewish friends are torn apart when one of them became a right-wing party (Fidesz) representative. The other story focuses on Zsuzsa who separated from her husband in 2002 after they had stopped talking to each other, and politics pits even child against mother. 72 min.

Screening | Russian Documentary: Dmitry Gutov's Lifshitz Institute (2005)


A film about the Marxist philosopher and art critic Mikhail Lifshitz. Born in 1905, Lifshitz is, as the film states at its beginning, “one of the most enigmatic and paradoxical figures of the Communist epoch. No other Soviet thinker’s name has ever provoked so much outrage; no other name arouses as much interest as does Lifshitz today.” His most significant theoretical work The Crisis of Ugliness: From Cubism to Pop-Art (1968) subjects the entire aesthetic of the 20th century to a total critique. 45 min.
