Conference | Who Owns the World? The State of Platform Cooperativism
Around the globe, we are starting to build an alternative economy that benefits the many, not just the few. Our passions, research, and projects challenge platform capitalism and chart a more democratic future. We show that an inclusive economy is not only necessary but possible. When starting a platform co-op, we have a much better chance at success if we rely on the support of our communities, established co-ops, incubators, co-op banks, unions, foundations, researchers, lawyers, technologists, and policymakers. “Who Owns the World?” is about building connections between these groups, finding the much-needed support, and learning from each other. For the first time, this event will bring together many of the most active players in this movement worldwide to share updates and insights, instigate initiatives, make new friends, lift each other up, plan next steps, and find new business partners as well as funders. Who Owns the World?” will feel the pulse of platform cooperativism, worldwide.

Conference | Rewiring Democracy: Beyond "Us" and "Them"
Our current moment is one in which our understanding of democracy is placed under critical pressure, making it increasingly difficult to divide the world into "them" and "us"-- and equally difficult to even know what is meant when we say "we." Whereas a certain modern tradition defies the political via the fundamental distinction between the friend and the enemy, such an opposition is much more complicated when democracy must think and deal with (1) climate change, (2) the refugee crisis, and (3) the rise of national populism. The purpose of this two-day event is to bring together thinkers from France, Europe, and the United States who work on the concept of democracy, at the intersection of several disciplines, especially philosophy, political science, ecology, sociology, literature, law, and cinema.

Opening Reception | Heterotopia II: A Self-Contained Labyrinth
Peter Halley will create a self-contained structure comprising a multi-colored, labyrinthine series of rooms each framing a single painting. Building on recent installations at the Lever House in New York City and Heterotopia I in Venice, Halley’s exhibition will present eight new shaped-canvas paintings within the radically transformed architectural space, creating a new heterotopia – a term borrowed from philosopher Michel Foucault. Through painting and site-specific installation using intense colors, rigorous geometries, and industrial materials, Halley deftly illuminates the structures of social space and communication that have come to define our current era.

Gallery Talk | Memory Palaces: Inside the Collection of Audrey B. Heckler: Exhibition Tour
The collection of Audrey B. Heckler is emblematic of the growth of the field of self-taught art in the United States, which manifests a strong interest for African American artists, a consistent attention on American classics, a curiosity for European art brut, and a search for international discoveries.

Opera | Bellini's I Capuleti e i Montecchi
New York Opera Forum performs the complete opera of I Capuleti e i Montecchi by Vincenzo Bellini. A live musical recital performed in concert with piano accompaniment. I Capuleti e i Montecchi (The Capulets and the Montagues) is an Italian opera (Tragedia lirica) in two acts by Vincenzo Bellini. The libretto by Felice Romani was a reworking of the story of Romeo and Juliet for an opera by Nicola Vaccai called Giulietta e Romeo and based on the play of the same name by Luigi Scevola written in 1818, thus an Italian source rather than taken directly from William Shakespeare.

Opening Reception | Brice Marden: It reminds me of something, and I don't know what it is.
New paintings and drawings by Brice Marden. These works continue Marden's Letter series, in which networks of calligraphic lines and strokes weave through fields of color and tone. Marden begins these paintings by filling the canvas with script-like glyphs, working in columns from top to bottom, right to left. He then links these initial markings through a network of lines, creating webs and threads across the surface of the canvas. As he paints in layers, Marden scrapes away at excess paint on the surface of the canvas, diffusing his lines and allowing a complex play of color, weight, and distance to develop in the pictorial space as he works the canvas deeper into abstraction.

Play | Hoppla, We’re Alive!: A Landmark of Weimar and Early Epic Theater
Hoppla, We're Alive! is one of the landmarks of Weimar and early Epic Theater—the opening production of the Piscatorbühne in September of 1927 and a critical success on the scale of Brecht and Weill’s Threepenny Opera. A thrilling indictment of the politico-military-industrial corrupting democracy, Toller’s play remains frighteningly relevant today. Toller’s dissection of political conspiracies, failed revolution, feminist emancipation and class solidarity suggests one answer: it is only in the constant struggle against power that we are alive. This adaptation of the Piscator collective’s original production constitutes the work’s US premiere.
