Paris Blues Revisited: Romare Bearden, Albert Murray and Sam Shaw
Jazz at Lincoln Center, Frederick P. Rose Hall
Peter Jay Sharp Arcade, 5th Floor Time Warner Center
New York [map]Price: Free
June 18, 2012 10:00am - 11:00pm
Designed as a book-on-the-wall, Paris Blues Revisited presents fine reproductions of collages by Romare Bearden, writing by Albert Murray and photographs by Sam Shaw. Following the Shaw-produced film Paris Blues, these three men decided to improvise their own Paris Blues – a collaborative picture-and-writing book celebrating Paris as well as Duke Ellington, co-composer (with Billy Strayhorn) of the movie's soundtrack and Louis Armstrong, one of that movie's stars. That book was never completed. Here, for the first time, finished pages, some of them unmistakable masterworks, as well as works-in-progress make clear the power of jazz to inspire collaborations of long-lasting beauty.

He followed these artists to prominence and others that were already well known including The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, Ray Charles, Eric Clapton, David Bowie, Queen, Neil Young, Bob Marley, The Who, Genesis, Elton John, KISS, U2, Aerosmith, Santana, Michael Jackson and Ray Charles. The work has been published on album,CD and DVD covers, in books, magazines, for publicity and tour booklets.

Ethics in Film Contemporary Documentaries-American Experience: Stonewall Uprising (2010)
Price: $5.00
June 18, 2012 01:00pm - 03:00pm
Come and join us for the showing of "American Experience: Stonewall Uprising (2010)", an event that made history. Through eyewitness interviews and archival footage, documentary filmmakers Kate Davis and David Heilbroner recapture a pivotal moment in time that mobilized a generation of gay activists and marked the dawn of the modern Gay Rights Movement. Much like Rosa Parks’ symbolic refusal to move to the back of the bus, gay bar patrons’ refusal to comply with a police raid at Greenwich Village’s Stonewall Inn in 1969 would change the course of history. Entry to our 100-year-old building and meeting rooms is available for most wheelchair users with prior arrangements. Please call ahead (212-874-5210 x 107) for setup of our portable system and plan to arrive one hour before start time.

Summertime's favorite Shakespeare in the Park returns to Delacorte Theater for its 50th year with "As You Like It," a play that has everything we adore about Shakespearean comedy: mistaken identity, cross-dressing, madness, mayhem, rage, lust, laughter, and of course, plenty of romance--both heartbreaking and joyous.

Arrive hours in advance of 1 pm for best change of securing tickets. Enter at West 81st Street.
