SUMMARY:jess pretty - call and response
DESCRIPTION:In call and response\, jess pretty wraps her audience in a conceptual\, and literal\, embrace. Unfolding as a dance-based\, experiential conversation – between pretty and her younger selves\, her ancestors\, and everybody else in the room – call and response is a kind of casual\, yet devotional\, soirèe or salon or kickback\, with pretty as the host. \nWithin an environment of familiar (and familial) comforts – living room furniture\, record player\, books and plants; all of it bathed in continuous\, deep blue light – call and response doles out laughter and music as soft (and generous) launching points for an experience of memory and reflection that is shared and felt as much as it is witnessed. It endeavors to slow down the room; and invites us to join in the attempt. \nChoreographer / Performer: jess pretty. Creative Interlocutors: keyon gaskin & Niall Jones. Lighting Design / Tech Support / Set Design: Maggie Heath. DJ / Sound Practitioner: Tyler Hughley / DJ Luccihugh. Sound Consultant: Jeremy Touissaint-Baptiste.

SUMMARY:New Material Night: a Standup Comedy show - Pride Edition!
DESCRIPTION:Every 2nd and 4th Thursday\, comedian Lauren Hope Krass (Betches Media\, HBO Women In Comedy Festival) and Dan Frank (New York Comedy Festival\, PN&Friends) are bringing together New York’s funniest comics to test out their newest bits. Before a joke appears on a televised special or on an album\, it lives a fascinating life of twists and turns. The rules are simple: Laugh if it's funny… And maybe politely fake laugh a little if it’s not because hey\, trying new things is hard! This show is a favorite of Time Out New York and you just can’t bottle the infectious energy that erupts every single show. This is a guaranteed good time for a solo outing\, date night or group hang. We of course also highly recommended this show to all our beloved Astoria comedy nerds. This is where the magic happens! \nCome celebrate Pride with this lineup of all LGBTQ+ comedians! with\nCaitlin Reese\nJilberto Soto\nSrilatha Rajamani\nKeenan Steiner\nOtter Lee\nCalvin Cato\nRyan Erwin\nJay Elliot\nDan Frank

SUMMARY:Screenings: 100 Years of Parajanov
DESCRIPTION:Born in 1926 to Armenian parents in multicultural Tbilisi\, Georgia\, Sergei Parajanov was a filmmaker unlike any other\, a versatile genius with the moving image distinguished through atmospheric mise-en-scène\, sumptuous colors\, opulent settings\, and unforgettable imagery. Already a trained musician in violin and song before he attended Moscow’s prestigious VGIK (All-Union State Institute of Cinematography) at the age of 21\, Parajanov first broke through when he broke with the U.S.S.R.’s socialist realist doctrine with his seminal Shadows of Forgotten Ancestors (1964) and his crown-jewel The Color of Pomegranates (1968). Increasingly outspoken against the Soviet regime\, Parajanov would see many of his scripts rejected by state authorities\, and he would be arrested and imprisoned several times over the subsequent decades\, though his international esteem grew to the level of myth. Parajanov passed away in July 1990. “With the death of Sergei Parajanov cinema lost one of its magicians\,” wrote Federico Fellini. MoMI is proud to present a selection of the greatest works of this revolutionary artist and humanist on the occasion of his centenary.

SUMMARY:Conversation with Miljohn Ruperto and Paul Pfeiffer
DESCRIPTION:Join artist and author Miljohn Ruperto for a presentation in the style of a “guide” to his new booklet edition\, An Operational Account of Western Spatio-Temporality\, followed by a conversation with artist Paul Pfeiffer. \nAn Operational Account of Western Spatio-Temporality comprises three flipbooks and an accordion-fold booklet. The booklet presents an essay that examines three forms of time as philosophized by the Ancient Greeks—aion\, chronos\, and kairos—to map the boundaries of and discern the influences of Western spatio-temporality. The essay serves as a guiding narrative to help readers identify the source or essence of Western subjectivity. \nEach of Ruperto’s flipbooks depicts a disembodied head in movement. “The Baroque Is a Geometric Imposition Upon Wild Nature” features the head of Medusa; “History Awaits Immanence\,” the head of John the Baptist; and “Western Temporalities Incline Towards a Tripartite Structure\,” a triface image of Christ. Each of these figures is drawn from classical art historical references. \nAn Operational Account of Western Spatio-Temporality was designed by artist\, designer\, and independent curator Margaret Tedesco and published by X Projects. Purchase the booklet via X Projects now. Copies will be available on site at SculptureCenter during the event. \nMiljohn Ruperto lives and works in Los Angeles. Ruperto is interested in developing approaches to interrogating and expanding our conception of nature and history: e.g. historiography\, the history of nature\, and the nature of nature. \nPaul Pfeiffer lives and works in New York. Known for his highly sophisticated use of digital technologies and new media\, Pfeiffer edits iconic images or found footage of sporting events\, concerts\, or Hollywood films to explore our culture’s obsession with spectacle and uncover its hidden psychological cost.
