    Architecture in Motion - FILM (and other ARTS) FEASTS part IV

    Wednesday, November 1, 2006
    MOCA Cleveland
    7.00pm
    $75.00 per guest

    Well, this has been all over the place so I might as well jump on the bandwagon. I have to apologize for possible post slacking as I have an event coming up Friday that I have to prepare for and it is consuming all of my spare time (spare time to be constituted as time not used to make a living).

    Anyway, most of you might have noticed that MOCA is planning a big move to University Circle, the Akron Art Museum is undergoing a minor renovation (You can still make the Wolf Prix presentation tonight if you hurry!) and the Cleveland Museum of Art is also undergoing some changes. What do these three projects have in common? Besides being in Northeastern Ohio? They are all art museums! Crazy stuff eh?

    Some are calling these undertakings an "architectural renaissance" but I won't make such pretty statements. The times, they are a changing which leads to some rare opprotunities to marvel at the connections between art and architecture. If only there was some sort of Forum with which the public could learn about these changes, the directions taken and the considerations that were taken into account while these changes were planned.

    Oh wait, there IS!

    Join
    Jill Snyder -Executive Director of the
    Museum of Contemporary Art [MOCA Cleveland]
    David Deming -President of the
    Cleveland Institute of Art
    Timothy Rub -Director and Chief Executive Officer of the
    Cleveland Museum of Art [also panel moderator]
    Mitchell Kahan -Director of the
    Akron Art Museum
    Terry Stewart -CEO of the
    Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum

    for a lively discussion of where they are, what they envision and where they are wanting to go. There will be a dessert reception following the program and seating is limited to 50 guests so hurry up and
    order your tickets.

    - Architecture in Motion is the fourth FILM (and other ARTS) FEASTS series put on by the
    Cleveland Film Society as a fundraiser to support the Cleveland International Film Festival.
