Next Wednesday, 3 March, at
8.00pm, Marilyn
Nonken performs the 95-minute Morton Feldman piano solo
Triadic Memories at the Players Theatre, 115 Macdougal Street.
Her highly-regarded recording of the piece for Mode Records was
described by John Rockwell in The New York Times as "a lovely
performance of a lovely piece," and Ivan Hewitt in The London
Times said, "Any pianist wanting to play Feldman needs the most
exquisite touch, and also great stamina, and Marilyn Nonken clearly has
both in abundance." Tickets are $20.00 and available online here.
The following week, on 11 March,
a major exhibition of the work of German painter Otto Dix opens at the Neue Galerie on the
Upper East Side, just steps from the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The first
one-man museum exhibition of works by Dix in North America, the show
includes more than 100 items, divided into the themes of the military,
portraiture, sexuality, and religion and allegory. Otto Dix runs
through 30 August; more information about the show here.
Finally, the Web page for the 10 May Howard Barker at the Segal Center,
co-produced by theatre minima, went up only yesterday. I am looking
forward to the event and to posting additional details about participants
and the schedule of the day's offerings shortly.
