DESCRIPTION:Friday\, June 17\, 2011\nUpdate\, 6/17/11. Please note:\n– We will be monitoring the weather throughout the day.

Surrounded by gravesites and the night skies\, you’ll chat with the director and the actors of the The Spoon River Project.  Tickets for both the reception and the show are $40\, or $75 for two — click here to purchase those tickets in advance online. \nTickets to the show only (without the reception) are $20 in advance and $25 at the door.

SUMMARY:1 p.m. Private Screening of Basquiat Film: The Radiant Child
DESCRIPTION:The Radiant Child movie poster\nSaturday\, November 5\, 2011\nQ&A WITH BASQUIAT FRIENDS WHO APPEAR IN FILM\, WINE & CHEESE RECEPTION\, AND A VISIT TO HIS GRAVE. \nSundance Film Festival: Grand Jury Prize nomination\nThe New York Times: Critics’ Pick \n“Davis focuses on fascinating specifics. Biographical minutiae which influenced his early work and articulate assessments from friends\, former girlfriends\, art historians\, and gallerists illuminate the life and work of the man who took\, in the words of Yale professor Robert Farris Thompson\, “all the street energies and translated them into high art.” – Melissa Anderson\, The Village Voice \n“Places Basquiat’s art in a cultural context with an enthusiasm and zest that make the many pictures shown come blazingly alive. His bitter contemplations of black history\, in particular\, have an epic\, historical dimension\, while also reflecting his own insecurity about being treated as an exotic\, token black star in a predominantly white art world.”\n– Stephen Holden\, The New York Times \nCentered on a rare interview that director and friend Tamra Davis shot with Jean-Michel Basquiat over 20 years ago\, this new documentary chronicles the meteoric rise and fall of the young artist. In the crime-ridden NYC of the late 1970s\, he covered the city with the graffiti tag “SAMO.” Twenty-five years old at the height of his career\, Basquiat painted canvases that sell today for more than a  million dollars. The film features interviews with Julian Schnabel\, Larry Gagosian\, Fab 5 Freddy\, Jeffrey Deitch and many more. Click play below to watch a trailer: \n \nFilm screening is followed by wine and cheese; Q&A with Suzanne Mallouk\, artist\, psychiatrist and Basquiat’s former girlfriend\, and Michael Harmon\, co-founder of Basquiat’s 1980s industrial noise band\, “Gray”; and a visit to Basquiat’s grave. \n$25 per person for Green-Wood Historic Fund members and $35 for non-members.

SUMMARY:1 p.m. 'Clara and Mr. Tiffany' with Author Susan Vreeland Talk &Tour
DESCRIPTION:“Not just for art lovers; read it if you enjoy love\, human drama\, and American cultural history.” — Library Journal\n \nThe latest novel of bestselling author Susan Vreeland was inspired by the story of the real artist behind the iconic lamps of Green-Wood resident Louis Comfort Tiffany. Hundreds of personal letters brought to the attention of art historians in 2005 led to the electrifying discovery that it was a woman\, Clara Driscoll\, who invented and designed world-famous stained-glass lamps. Set against the Gilded Age world of formal balls and opera as well as the immigrant poverty of the Lower East Side\, Vreeland’s novel imagines the life of the artistic and progressive Driscoll.  \nThis event has two parts\, with separate tickets for each part: \n\nA free book talk by Susan Vreeland in the historic Green-Wood chapel\, ending with a book signing (just released in paperback).\n \nA trolley tour immediately following the talk\, led by Green-Wood’s historian Jeff Richman\, to the graves of the Tiffany family\, plus many contemporary designers and leading figures of the day. Tickets are $15 for members of the Green-Wood Historic Fund and $20 for non-members.\n\n \nSeating is limited for both the talk and the trolley tour\, and reservations are recommended. \nTo purchase tickets\, call 718-210-3080 or order online using the Ticket Information box below — click to Order Now or Enter Promotional Code (Member ID#) and you will be redirected to our Eventbrite ordering page.
