SUMMARY:Mother
DESCRIPTION:AN Installation by Eiko Otake\n\n\n\n\n\nPhoto Credit: Maria Baranova\n\n\n\nFebruary 25th–May 7thFree and Open to the Public Daily 10am–5pmHistoric Chapel \n\n\n\nIn her fifty-year career\, Eiko Otake has explored themes of loss\, which has included practicing her own death\, conversing with the dead\, and moving among the abandoned remains of irradiated Fukushima. Otake is interested in communing with and surveying the physical and emotional traces of the deceased. \n\n\n\nIn Mother\, through videos and sculpture\, Otake talks to and dances with her mother\, who died in 2019. It is one daughter and her mother’s personal story. The artist\, however\, hopes viewers have an opportunity to contemplate their own maternal bonds\, as well as the diverse yet common connection to a mother that “links us all to the distant past.” Green-Wood’s Historic Chapel is a poignant setting for Mother\, as for over a century it has provided many with a place for such reflection.  \n\n\n\nMother is curated by Harry Weil\, Green-Wood’s Vice President of Education and Public Programs. Iris McCloughan aided in the installation’s creation as a dramaturg. Mother includes two videos created in 2019 soon after Otake’s mother passed away\, as well as photo prints and objects. The video of the artist speaking is excerpted from “Elegies\,” made in collaboration with John Killacky and Brian Stevenson. The other\, “With Mother in Twilight\,” was filmed by Rebekkah Palov.   \n\n\n\nMade possible in part by the New York State Council on the Arts and National Endowment for the Arts. \n\n\n\nClick here for more information about the artist and installation. \n\n\n\nFree and open to the public\, no reservations are necessary. Please consider a donation to The Green-Wood Historic Fund so that we can continue to offer free and low-cost programs throughout the year.

The video of the artist speaking is excerpted from “Elegies\,” made in collaboration with John Killacky and Brian Stevenson. The other\, “With Mother in Twilight\,” was filmed by Rebekkah Palov.   \n\n\n\nMade possible in part by the New York State Council on the Arts and National Endowment for the Arts. \n\n\n\nClick here for more information about the artist and installation. \n\n\n\nFree and open to the public\, no reservations are necessary.

SUMMARY:A Force to Reckon With: Elizabeth Gloucester
DESCRIPTION:Elizabeth Gloucester (1817–1883) is hardly a household name today\, but at the time of her death she was said to be “known to everyone in Brooklyn\, New York\, the State and in fact throughout a great part of the country.” This fascinating permanent resident of Green-Wood was a wealthy business owner\, abolitionist\, philanthropist\, and friend to some of the leading figures in the nineteenth century\, including Frederick Douglass and John Brown—quite a force to reckon with. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPrice: $9\, and $4 for members.  \n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVirtual EventA Zoom link will be in your confirmation email upon registration.\n\n\n\n\n\nSara Cedar Miller\, historian emerita of the Central Park Conservancy\, will lead this eye-opening deep-dive into the life of Gloucester. She’ll discuss the legal maneuvers Gloucester used to gain ownership of her Seneca Village property (in what is now Central Park)\, the restraints preventing married women from enjoying the same rights as single or widowed women\, and how she used her fortune to aid in political actions.

SUMMARY:Mother
DESCRIPTION:AN Installation by Eiko Otake\n\n\n\n\n\nPhoto Credit: Maria Baranova\n\n\n\nFebruary 25th–May 7thFree and Open to the Public Daily 10am–5pmHistoric Chapel \n\n\n\nIn her fifty-year career\, Eiko Otake has explored themes of loss\, which has included practicing her own death\, conversing with the dead\, and moving among the abandoned remains of irradiated Fukushima. Otake is interested in communing with and surveying the physical and emotional traces of the deceased. \n\n\n\nIn Mother\, through videos and sculpture\, Otake talks to and dances with her mother\, who died in 2019. It is one daughter and her mother’s personal story. The artist\, however\, hopes viewers have an opportunity to contemplate their own maternal bonds\, as well as the diverse yet common connection to a mother that “links us all to the distant past.” Green-Wood’s Historic Chapel is a poignant setting for Mother\, as for over a century it has provided many with a place for such reflection.  \n\n\n\nMother is curated by Harry Weil\, Green-Wood’s Vice President of Education and Public Programs. Iris McCloughan aided in the installation’s creation as a dramaturg. Mother includes two videos created in 2019 soon after Otake’s mother passed away\, as well as photo prints and objects. The video of the artist speaking is excerpted from “Elegies\,” made in collaboration with John Killacky and Brian Stevenson. The other\, “With Mother in Twilight\,” was filmed by Rebekkah Palov.   \n\n\n\nMade possible in part by the New York State Council on the Arts and National Endowment for the Arts. \n\n\n\nClick here for more information about the artist and installation. \n\n\n\nFree and open to the public\, no reservations are necessary. Please consider a donation to The Green-Wood Historic Fund so that we can continue to offer free and low-cost programs throughout the year.
