SoHo Broadway Events

Sundays on Broadway and guest curator Jon Kinzel present an evening of works by David Cale, Christoph Gielen, and Neil Goldberg.

Kieren McGrath is David Cale’s portrait of a charismatic Irish horse-drawn carriage driver in Central Park whose life takes an unexpected turn when he’s offered a provocative job he can’t refuse. 

Christoph Gielen will present “California Growth Machine,” a 13-minute experimental documentary that details the potential ramifications of unchecked urbanization. The film was originally developed for a museum installation and presents a voice from art (rather than science) in the discourse on environmental sustainability. The film addresses habitat fragmentation and loss of biodiversity through housing expansion, road development, and the diversion of water resources.

Neil Goldberg will present Three or Four Steps Through a Shadow (2003-05), a silent video that examines the shadows that pass across pedestrians’ faces as they walk beneath a mulberry tree near his apartment.

Due to unforeseen events, Julie Spodek will regretfully no longer be able to present this season.

All events begin at 6:00 pm. Doors open at 5:45 pm at WeisAcres, 537 Broadway, #3. There are no reservations. Seating is first come, first served. Keep in mind, this is a small space! Please arrive on time out of courtesy to the artists.

Beginning this season, we suggest a $10 contribution at the door. With this small contribution, we are able to continue bringing unique performances every Sunday and giving artists an intimate space to share their ideas.
