Special Event
Harvard Art Museums32 Quincy Street, Cambridge, MA
The Harvard Art Museums are presenting a series of films and videos in conjunction with the exhibition Jesse Aron Green: Ärtzliche Zimmergymnastik. Programmed by the artist, Round Peg/Square Hole: Films on the Body explores the everyday movement of the human body.
This final installment in the series features Yvonne Rainer’s Trio A (10 min.), Lisa Steele’s Birthday Suit with Scars and Defects (13 min.), Charles Atlas’s Rainer Variations (42 min.), and Elisabeth Subrin’s The Fancy (35 min.).
The films and videos in this series complement and complicate an understanding of Jesse Aron Green’s multilayered and multidisciplinary works. Green will address these connections, as well as speak more generally about them, as part of his introduction to each installment in the series.
The event will be held in Menschel Hall, Lower Level.
Free admission.
Support for this program is provided by the Richard L. Menschel Endowment Fund. Modern and contemporary art programs at the Harvard Art Museums are made possible in part by generous support from the Emily Rauh Pulitzer and Joseph Pulitzer, Jr., Fund for Modern and Contemporary Art.
