DOUBLE LIFE - Jérôme Bel at CAMH

Jérôme Bel and Cédric Andrieux are coming to Houston for a theatrical exhibition where the audience is part of each artists' projects. As Véronique Doisneau and Cédric Andrieux recount personal anecdotes, alternating them with physical demonstrations of movement, we see Bel reject the notion that dancers are mere bodies employed to execute a choreographer’s vision. By making the dancers’ labor and character visible, Bel opens a space for the expression of their individual subjectivity onstage.

MARK ROTHKO: TOWARD THE LIGHT IN THE CHAPEL

On Thursday, March 19, at 8:00 p.m., you are invited to join esteemed writer and French academic Annie Cohen-Solal (Sartre: A Life) as she discusses her new biography of artist Mark Rothko with arts reporter Jori Finkel (Art Newspaper, New York Times). A Q&A and book signing will follow the program. Within just a few decades, Rothko went from being a student at Yale—where he felt marginalized for his Russian Jewish origins—to becoming a renowned painter hailed as a pioneer by critics. Cohen-Solal, the former Cultural Counselor to the French Embassy in the United States, has drawn from exclusive archival material to tell this unlikely story of how a young immigrant became a crucial transforming agent of the art world—one whose legacy prevails to this day. Admission is free, but RSVPs are recommended. To RSVP, please visit the Skirball's website.
