Talking about nothing and making something of it
Tim McHenry never fails to impress. The Rubin Museum of Art's Director of programming, Tim produces series of talks that just get better and better. This time, he's making something out of nothing. Literally. He has put together a series of talks about, well, nothing. Among many others in the series, Oliver Sacks will speak with John Dugdale about "seeing nothing"; Nico Muhly and Andrew Solomon will talk about "lacunae"; and Peter Sellars and Raj Patel on the "economics of nothing.
Other participants include Laurie Anderson, Robert Wilson, Even Ensler, Lama Surya Das and many, many more.
I'll make as many as I can. The RMA is in Manhattan's Chelsea district. For more information, check out the website.
