SUMMARY:Pınar Öğrenci: Glück auf in Deutschland (Harvard Art Museum)
DESCRIPTION:Reflect on memory\, labor\, and belonging in this first major U.S. exhibition by Pınar Öğrenci. \nGlück auf in Deutschland marks the first major exhibition in the United States by Berlin-based artist and filmmaker Pınar Öğrenci (b. 1973). The artist’s work invites viewers to question what has been remembered or erased while imagining a future grounded in justice\, equality\, and collective healing and shaped by layered experiences of survival\, resistance\, and resilience. \nThe exhibition includes Öğrenci’s 2024 film Glück auf in Deutschland (Good Luck in Germany)\, which addresses the construction of postwar German identity in the Ruhrgebiet\, a heavily industrialized region known for coal mining and steel production. Five related collages are also on view\, reimagining the bodies of workers and their families within the Ruhr landscape and its architecture. Öğrenci’s use of the phrase Glück auf — a common way that miners wish one another a safe return after their physically grueling and dangerous work underground — resonates with the experiences of immigrant communities in present-day Germany facing right-wing extremism. \nThe photographs in the film and collages were drawn largely from the Ruhr Museum archive in Essen\, Germany\, and include works by artists from the 1950s and ’60s. In her interventions\, Öğrenci reveals how photography helped shape a homogenous\, male-centered identity for both the region and the German nation; she seeks instead to present a more inclusive visual record. Öğrenci’s work is displayed alongside historical photographs from the Busch-Reisinger Museum’s collection. \nCurated by Lynette Roth\, Daimler Curator of the Busch-Reisinger Museum. \nThis exhibition is supported by the Charles Kuhn Endowment Fund in the Busch-Reisinger Museum. Modern and contemporary art programs at the Harvard Art Museums are made possible in part by generous support from the Emily Rauh Pulitzer and Joseph Pulitzer\, Jr.\, Fund for Modern and Contemporary Art.

SUMMARY:Rhinoceros
DESCRIPTION:Featuring Emmy Award Winners Paul Giamatti\, Tatiana Maslany\, and John Turturro \nEverything seems normal one Sunday morning…until it’s not. One by one\, friends and colleagues transform into rhinoceroses\, and Berenger is forced to decide: will he follow the crowd or stand his ground? As resonant as when it premiered in the wake of the Second World War\, Rhinoceros reminds us of the importance of holding on to our humanity amidst mounting pressures to conform. Eugène Ionesco’s landmark play is staged in a new adaptation by A.R.T. based on Derek Prouse’s seminal translation. \nTony Award winner Diane Paulus (“one of the most imaginative forces working in theater\,” Broadway.com) directs her final production at the Loeb Drama Center before the A.R.T.’s move to its new home in Allston\, the Goel Center for Creativity & Performance. \nPerformers are subject to change and understudies may perform at any time\, with a specific announcement made at the time of the performance. No refunds are issued in the event of a change in casting. \n\nOpening Night: 8/21\nASL Interpreted: 9/16 at 7:30PM\nAudio Described: 9/19 at 2PM\nOpen Captioned: 9/19 at 2PM

SUMMARY:Nicholas Reynolds and Katie Sanders at Harvard Book Store
DESCRIPTION:Harvard Book Store welcomes Nicholas Reynolds—author\, military historian\, and retired  Colonel USMC veteran—and Katie Sanders—award-winning journalist who has written for National Geographic\, The New York Times\, and other publications—for a discussion of their new book\, Ortiz’s War: The Allies’ Secret Weapon Against the Nazis in France. \nAbout Ortiz’s War\nThe untold story of the Allies’ secret weapon in occupied France. \nPeter J. Ortiz’s path to becoming the most battle-decorated member of America’s first spy agency—and one of the most decorated Marines of World War II—was unlike any other. Born in New York and raised between California and France\, he would have stints as a merchant seaman\, dude ranch manager\, race car driver\, lion tamer\, circus performer\, and Hollywood stuntman and actor. As a teenager\, Ortiz ran away from boarding school in France to join the French Foreign Legion. He first experienced combat in North Africa against tribesmen in the Sahara. Fighting on the front lines against the Germans in 1940\, he was badly wounded and captured. He repeatedly escaped\, one time fleeing a hospital train after assuming the identity of a dead soldier.
