SUMMARY:New York’s Culper Spy Ring
DESCRIPTION:In this presentation\, historian and author Bill Bleyer will illuminate the true tale of the Culper Spy Ring\, a covert operation that provided critical support to George Washington’s Continental Army during the American Revolution. In the quest for independence\, George Washington recognized the immense value of enemy intelligence circulating through the streets of Lower Manhattan. He enlisted Major Benjamin Tallmadge\, a native of Long Island\, to spearhead an intelligence network that history remembers as the Culper Spy Ring. Drawing from his recent book\, George Washington’s Long Island Spy Ring: A History and Tour Guide\, Bleyer will sift through the myths and realities\, showcasing the ingenious workings of this indispensable covert network that ultimately played a pivotal role in securing victory for the Patriots. Over the centuries\, numerous legends have emerged regarding the Long Island-based Culper Spy Ring. These include stories about Anna Strong’s clothesline\, the secret passage of intelligence across the Long Island Sound\, and various assumptions about the methods employed by the spies. Join this program to unravel the truth behind these legends and gain a deep understanding of the network’s actual operations.

SUMMARY:Concrete Solutions: Residential High-Rises in Chicago
DESCRIPTION:The most famous residential structures of postwar Chicago are still Mies van der Rohe’s 860-880 Lake Shore Drive with the modernist expression of their steel skeleton. But Mies also designed in concrete\, as did many Chicago architects and builders throughout the 20th century. Chicago developed home-grown expertise in flat slab\, “rib-cage\,” and tube construction that produced remarkably innovative residential towers across the city. While a few of the postwar icons—Marina City and Lake Point Tower\, for instance—are well studied\, others such as Lawless Gardens\, 320 Oakdale\, and Quadrangle House deserve greater attention for the impact they had on the city’s building culture. In this webinar\, Thomas Leslie will discuss his new book\, Chicago Skyscrapers\, 1934-1986: How Technology\, Politics\, Finance\, and Race Reshaped the City\, an expansive architectural history that tackles the history of a half century of Chicago’s built environment.

SUMMARY:All Hands on Deck Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Documentary film “All Hands on Deck: A Modern-Day High Seas Adventure to the Far Side of the World.” At this event\, you’ll become part of the captivating journey of a diverse crew of 30 passionate individuals\, including our narrator Will Sofrin. “All Hands on Deck” will show how the fearless team set sail on a daring voyage to transport a replica of the 18th century warship Rose from its home in Newport\, Rhode Island\, to the bustling heart of Hollywood for use in the 2003 film Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World. We will see how the crew effectively went back in time to bring to life the old ways of the maritime world\, and their hard work on the high seas. You will be on the edge of your seat as we watch the crew confront unpredictable storm-tossed seas and even an actual dismasting––which we will see while on Wavertree\, who experienced a dismasting that ended her sailing career. The film runs for 32 minutes\, offering an intense and captivating narrative. This program takes place on the ‘tweendeck below the main deck of Wavertree\, which is not a temperature-controlled environment. It can be chilly this time of year\, make sure to bring a coat and dress accordingly.

SUMMARY:Female Gaze: Peng Wei’s Feminine Space
DESCRIPTION:Immersive exploration into the captivating world of Peng Wei\, an artist renowned for her unique approach to representing the diversity of female perspectives. This lecture is a key part of the lecture series for the China Institute’s contemporary art exhibition\, showcasing the multifaceted nature of Chinese contemporary art and its dialogues with history and identity. This lecture will delve into the multiple dimensions of Peng Wei’s art. Whether expansive or intimate\, three-dimensional or flat\, her work consistently centers around women. Rather than simply portraying real or fictional female figures\, Peng Wei engages in a dynamic process of responding to and reshaping these representations. This nuanced interplay between response and remodeling in Peng Wei’s art blurs the lines\, demanding a closer look and deeper understanding. Join us in this artistic exploration\, where each piece is a dialogue\, a story\, and a celebration of women’s diverse experiences throughout history.

SUMMARY:Tracy K. Smith presents To Free the Captives: A Plea for the American Soul\, in conversation with Imani Perry
DESCRIPTION:In 2020\, heartsick from constant assaults on Black life\, Tracy K. Smith found herself soul-searching and digging into the historical archive for help navigating the “din of human division and strife.” With lyricism and urgency\, Smith draws on several avenues of thinking—personal\, documentary\, and spiritual—to understand who we are as a nation and what we might hope to mean to one another.

SUMMARY:Morgan & Enzo's Batshit Book Club
DESCRIPTION:Are you too hardcore for the current state of American letters? The tragic truth is that most new books seem afraid to shock\, experiment\, offend\, get weird. Is there still a place in this world for the freaky girlies? The answer is yes. Morgan and Enzo are two booksellers at McNally Jackson Seaport who delight in the decadent\, the debased\, and the degenerate. Now\, they open their private reading circle to the last libertines in New York. This won’t be a cozy time by the fireplace. We don’t talk to Reese Witherspoon. We don’t know Oprah. This is Batshit Book Club\, and baby\, there will be no seatbelts.
