Monday Events: South African Printmaking, I Am Curious—Yellow, Dungen, Michel Gondry, and The New Kids
At the Strand, rascally filmmaker Michel Gondry offers his guide on DIY moviemaking, a retrospective of sorts on the short he and others made during his Be Kind Rewind related installation at Dietch projects. Bring your improvised robot costumes. Michel Gondry reads from You'll Like This Film Because You're In It at the Strand. A sociologist studying sex in films steps over the line in this 1960s Swedish sex film that became notorious for stepping over the line itself. I Am Curious—Yellow at MoMa.
OMG! NKOTB is playing MSG! New Kids on the Block at Madison Square Garden.
It seems like Swede prog-rocker Dungen is on a mission to play every venue in the city right now. If you haven't taken in one of his shows yet, tonight's set a Maxwell's should be an ideal spot. Dungen at Maxwell's.
Now that we can view the years of apartheid with some level of distance, it's easier to take this collection of South African printmaking into focus. Impressions from South Africa: Printed Art/1960 to Now at MoMa.
