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:The Ego and the Oracle
DESCRIPTION:Boston-based band Jim’s Big Ego presents an original theatrical production entitled The Ego & The Oracle – an evening of spontaneous musical divination. \nPart improvisational theater\, part cabaret\, part audience participation\, The Ego & The Oracle is a live stage spectacular where shuffle play meets the I-Ching. Audience members are invited on stage to ask personal questions of The Oracle. They then spin a giant wheel containing songs by Jim’s Big Ego. When the wheel stops\, the band performs the chosen song\, which is then interpreted as the answer to the question by author Shawn Peters. The outcome can be humorous\, inspirational and/or moving. At the end of the show\, the band improvises a vamp while Jim reads and sings the unanswered questsions. \nIt is a light hearted show about synchronicity and it brings the audience together to discover we all have similar concerns and questions.

SUMMARY:Dreams in Nightmares
DESCRIPTION:Director: Shatara Michelle Ford Run Time: 128 min. Format: DCP Release Year: 2026 \nStarring: Charlie Barnett\, Denée Benton\, Dezi Bing\, Mars Storm Rucker\, Sasha Compère \n\n  \nPremiere Run!\nIn their second film\, Shatara Michelle Ford (Test Pattern) puts their singular stamp on the American road movie. DREAMS IN NIGHTMARES stars Denée Benton (The Gilded Age) as Z\, the nominal leader of a group of queer African-American college friends now in their mid-30s. Z is a writer and has a seemingly idyllic life in Los Angeles but\, when she is laid off from a teaching job\, she finds she still has some soul-searching to do. Cue the possibility of a road trip to track down the most free-spirited of their clique who has dropped off the map\, maybe somewhere in the Midwest. Gathering roommates Tasha (Compère) and Lauren (Bing) in New York City\, the trio set off on an adventure… next stop\, Iowa. \nAnchored in themes of chosen family and self-discovery\, DREAMS IN NIGHTMARES blends humor and emotional depth against the backdrop of a journey through the heartland of the U.S. and beyond. This film is an expansive and tender ode to chosen family and to the radical act of claiming space to dream—and to exist—on one’s own terms in an increasingly fraught country. – adapted from notes by Lunette Films \n“An essential new voice in Black cinema.” – Jourdain Searles\, The Film Stage
