Build the Block Neighborhood Policing – Little Italy & SoHo
By New York City Police Department
Build The Block Meeting Precinct 5, Sector C • Neighborhood: Little Italy & SoHo Build the Block is committed to building mutual respect and stronger lines of communication between police officers and the communities they serve through neighborhood policing. WHAT IS NEIGHBORHOOD POLICING? Neighborhood policing is a new direction of the NYPD to ensure police have real relationships and accountability in the neighborhoods where they work each day. Each neighborhood in the program is assigned a new type of police officer known as Neighborhood Coordination Officers (NCOs). These officers are hosting Build the Block safety meetings to jumpstart the dialogue between cops and community members to create real working relationships. That’s where you come in–by attending these meetings and joining the conversation, you can help contribute to a safer, stronger New York.

Donald Judd: Paintings 1960-1961
By Judd Foundation
Judd Foundation is pleased to present Donald Judd: Paintings 1960-1961, nine works by the artist on the ground floor of 101 Spring Street in New York. A largely understudied part of his oeuvre, his paintings from the early 1960s incorporate a series of stylistic transitions that reflect his interests and development as an artist. Oil paintings made between 1956 and 1958 feature irregular shapes that are neither strictly organic nor geometric, whereas in later paintings from 1960 to 1962 Judd makes use of repeating forms, a reduced color palette, found objects, and wax and sand to build up the canvas, plywood, or Masonite surfaces. The works in the exhibition reflect Judd’s experiments with a variety of techniques and the possibilities for creating non-illusionistic space in two dimensions.

The Lightness of Art Bruno Munari – Book launch & Panel
By Center for Italian Modern Art
Bruno Munari: The Lightness of Art A book launch and conversation with co-editor Pierpaolo Antonello, contributing authors Nicola Lucchi, Ara H. Merjian, Maria Antonella Pelizzari, and panel discussants Greg D’Onofrio and Steven Guarnaccia TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 18 / 6 – 8pm Dubbed a ‘Leonardo Da Vinci and Peter Pan’ of the modern world, Bruno Munari played a key role in practices as wide-ranging as concrete abstraction, kinetic art, multiples and xerograph art. He also gained international recognition in industrial and graphic design, through signature objects such as his Falkland lamp (1964) and Abitacolo (1971), advertising material for firms including Campari, and editorial work for Domus and publishing houses such as Einaudi and Bompiani. Munari left an indelible mark as a design theorist and as a children’s author and educator, through the artistic laboratories he toured globally from the mid-1970s. Bruno Munari: The Lightness of Art (Peter Lang, 2017) constitutes an unprecedented study of the artist. Through original archival research and illuminating comparisons with other artists...Read More >
