Greetings!
The TMU staff is hard at work gearing up for the onset of spring. It's an exciting time for us because our grantees are busy with incredible programming both in the U.S. and abroad. If you live close to an upcoming event, we hope you will be able to come out and support the work. AND, if you are a TMU grantee and would like us to promote your event on TMUnews, just send us a quick e-mail.
We are honored to be part of a community of people
doing such amazing work, and we look forward to hearing more from you.
All the best,
The TMU team

 Columbia University's Graduate School for Architecture, Planning, and Preservation Operator's Exercises: Open Form Film and Architecture
March 30th-May 5th, 2010
Operator's Exercises: Open Form Film and
Architecture explores the surprising and productive relationship between Polish
experimental film and architecture from the 1960s to the present. At the
core of the exhibition is an archive of experimental Polish films from the
1960s and 1970s that share several of the interests and preoccupations of
experimental cinema elsewhere in Europe and the United States, but that also
contend with the specific political, ideological, and aesthetic parameters of
Poland during the period. The exhibition features work by Przemyslaw
Kwiek, Pawel Kwiek, Zofia Kulik, Piotr Andrejew, and Ryszard Wasko and showcases
documents from the Oskar Hansen archive that trace the emergence of Open Form
from its architectural origins to its application in film practices and across
other disciplines.At the Arthur Ross Architecture
Gallery, Buell Hall Click here for more details.
