The Jewish Museum will present Bubbe Meises, a reading performance with artist Eleanor Antin, on Monday, January 28 at 11:30am. Antin will read excerpts of Conversations with Stalin, her unpublished coming-of-age memoir about growing up in a family of first generation Jewish immigrants in New York City. This program is the first of a series in which Antin will read the complete Conversations with Stalin over the course of a week at four different venues in New York City. Additional readings will take place at Ronald Feldman Fine Arts on January 29 at 6pm; the Brooklyn Museum on January 31 at 7pm; and the Whitney Museum of American Art on February 1 at 6:30pm. Eleanor Antin's Conversations with Stalin is a smart, no holds barred, black comedy in the picaresque tradition of Holden Caulfield and Huck Finn.
In 1950, Billy Wilder wrote and directed what is now regarded as one of the finest movies ever made - Sunset Boulevard, starring silent screen legend Gloria Swanson as silent screen legend Norma Desmond. A biting, incisive insight into the star system of the ‘old' Hollywood, set in the era when talkies had overtaken silent movies, Sunset Boulevard became an instant smash hit, a multi-award winning success (nominated for 11 Academy Awards and winning 3), an all-time classic and is regularly featured on the ‘top ten' lists of best movies ever made.
