Screening | Exploring the World of R. Buckminster Fuller via His Poetry & Documentary


The launch of Intuition by R. Buckminster Fuller, reissued by David Zwirner Books this fall, will include a film screening and a conversation. Attendees are encouraged to join the conversation at 7:00pm, even if they are unable to attend the film screening. The conversation will be preceded by a screening of the 1974 film, The World of Buckminster Fuller, directed by Robert Snyder. Perhaps the most comprehensive film on Fuller's work, this 80-minute documentary is told entirely in Fuller's words and is a personal message from Fuller to our fragile world. Intuition is an inquiry into synergy and the order of things - an inherently plural universe where the behavior of whole systems is unpredicted by the behaviors of the parts taken separately. The conversation with Isi Litke and Eva Diaz, moderated by Leopoldo Villardi, will discuss Intuition in the context of Fuller's life and work, and the book's relevance to contemporary systems of design and architecture.

Film | Two Prosecutors (2025): German Historical Drama (+ Filmmaker Discussion)


Summoned with a blood-written note smuggled out of a prison block, an idealistic state lawyer pushes past the leery authorities to interview an elderly, broken-down Bolshevik. The young attorney, determined to expose the miscarriages of justice that landed the man in confinement, finds the eye of the state turned on him instead, as an ever-tightening net encircles his investigation. Set at the height of the Great Purge and drenched in the paranoia of Stalin's police state, filmmaker Sergei Loznitsa's latest triumph is a chilling, Kafkaesque thriller about the impunity of power and matter-of-fact horrors of fascism. Director: Sergei Loznitsa Cast: Aleksandr Kuznetsov, Aleksandr Filippenko, Anatoliy Beliy, Andris Keiss The post-screening Q&A with director Sergei Loznitsa will be moderated by Mark Lipovetsky.

Book Discussion | Award-Winning Author Shares Her Debut Novel, Whidbey (+ Live Music) (In Person AND Online!)


WNYC's Alison Stewart speaks with author T. Kira Madden, followed by a special musical performance from Fenne Lily. T Kira Madden's thrilling debut novel, Whidbey, is a portrait of three women connected through one man in the aftermath of his murder. About the book: Birdie Chang didn’t know anything about Whidbey Island when she chose it, only that it was about as far away as she could get from her own life. She’s a woman on the run, desperate for an escape from the headlines back home and the look of concern in her girlfriend’s eyes—and from Calvin Boyer, the man who abused her as a child and who’s now resurfaced. On her way, she has an unnerving encounter with a stranger on the ferry who offers her a proposition, a sinister solution and plan for revenge.

With special support from Sempio’s Yondu Culinary Studio, participants will have the opportunity to explore the unique characteristics and versatility of these traditional Korean sauces through creative, hands-on cooking. In this workshop, Chef Park will introduce a fresh approach to Korean flavors by incorporating these three distinctive sauces into Western-inspired canapés and creative finger foods.

Staged Reading | Best Line Wins: Original Comedy on Friendship & Ambition


Nichols & May were one of the greatest comedy duos of all time-- they performed together for only four years (and were lovers for only three days, or so the legend goes), but their comedy shaped a generation. After disbanding their act, the talented and charming Mike Nichols goes on to be an incredibly successful director of stage and screen, while the brilliant but "difficult" Elaine May has more of a roller coaster career, struggling as a screenwriter and director, ultimately making a living as a ghostwriter and go-to script doctor. When her old partner approaches her to write the screenplay for a comedy he's set to direct-- an English adaptation of the French film La Cage Aux Folles -- Elaine must wrestle with what matters more: succeeding on her own or reuniting with the partner who has always known her true worth. A comedy with plenty of belly laughs and a couple of solid gut punches. Written by Beth Kander.
