Mr. Turner explores the last quarter century of the life of J. M. W. Turner (1775–1851), the single-minded landscape painter whom John Ruskin (who is portrayed in the film) described as the “father of modern art.” With Turner’s loose brushwork and vibrant colors, and his depictions of the modern world, he often shocked his contemporaries. In the words of Mike Leigh, Mr. Turnerexamines “the tension between this very mortal, flawed individual, and the epic work, the spiritual way he had of distilling the world.” Introduced by Philip Lopate, film critic, author, and Professor of Writing, Columbia University.
Co-organized by NYU’s New York Institute for the Humanities and Grey Art Gallery.

DAH Student Kiara Ventura (2018) Curates South Bronx Exhibition, FOR US.
Taking place at the Bronx Art Space (April 4th – May 12th), the exhibition reflects loud unapologetic portraits by 8 young women of color. Artworks speak to the artists’ history, lineage, and pressures of daily lived experience. Dedicated to other women of color, the exhibition and its public programs examine how images can drive their process of healing. How can these images on and offline be used to take agency and manifest their future? Featuring sculpture, installation, video, painting, photography and library, the gallery is functioning as a safe space.
There are two curatorial tours scheduled on April 25 and May 9 at 6:30pm.
