SUMMARY:Fashion on Film Series: The Legacy of Alexander McQueen
DESCRIPTION:This five-part film series\, presented in conjunction with the exhibition A Queen Within: Adorned Archetypes\, considers the role of fashion in modern society and takes an in-depth look at some of the industry’s most influential tastemakers. \n\nFriday\, March 2\, 6:30 pm: The Legacy of Alexander McQueen\nSaturday\, March 3\, 2 pm: Bangaologia: The Science of Style and Sapeurs: The Men Inside the Suits\nSaturday\, April 7\, 2 pm: Manolo: The Boy Who Made Shoes for Lizards\nFriday\, April 20\, 7:30 pm: The First Monday in May\nFriday\, May 18\, 9:30 pm: The September Issue\n\nABOUT THE LEGACY OF ALEXANDER McQUEEN\nUsing never before seen interviews and archival fashion footage\, this documentary finished in 2015 by Loïc Prigent explores Alexander McQueen’s artistic inspirations through the lens of his last four collections. A year before he died\, the highly controversial Alexander McQueen presented a collection that revisited all the codes of an oeuvre that began in the 1990s. Morbid and excessive\, he ridiculed fashion and would crush and throw everything out\, only to start all over again\, better. Six months later\, he presented what critics hailed as a visionary masterpiece: Plato’s Atlantis. His previous collection had spoken of a planet invaded by waste; this new collection evoked an amphibian world\, in which faces and bodies had mutated. From the cut of the clothes to the wild shoes\, everything was new. Finally\, on January 18\, 2010\, three weeks before he committed suicide\, McQueen put on his last fashion show\, The Bone Collector. With a catacomb backdrop\, men were covered in shinbones\, skulls\, and ropes. It was a premonitory display. This enlightened and inspired documentary features remarkable images of McQueen’s many fashion shows—dances of death and political commentary shot through with multiple references—offering a fascinating insight into the designer’s career and personality. \nWatch the trailer:

SUMMARY:Friday Nights at NOMA: Opera Nouvelle presents Champion: An Opera in Jazz | Piano music by Nolan Tecklenburg | Fashion on Film Series
DESCRIPTION:Friday Nights at NOMA opens the museum’s doors for many interesting activities throughout the year: live music\, movies\, children’s activities\, and more. Regular admission prices apply—NOMA members are FREE—but there is no extra charge for programs or films. All galleries\, Café NOMA\, and the Museum Shop remain open till 9 pm. \n\n5 – 8 pm: Art on the Spot family activity table\n5:30 – 6:45 pm: Music by pianist Nolan Tecklenburg\n6:30 pm: Fashion on Film Series: The Legacy of Alexander McQueen\n7 pm: Opera Nouvelle presents selections from Champion: An Opera in Jazz\n\nABOUT OPERA NOUVELLE AND Champion: An Opera in Jazz by Terence Blanchard\nOpera Nouvelle will perform selections from Champion: An Opera in Jazz in advance of its New Orleans premiere. The opera\, with music by New Orleans’ jazz musician and composer Terence Blanchard\, is based on the life of professional boxer Emile Griffith\, a three-time World Welterweight Champion and twice a World Middleweight Champion who fought from the late 1950s into the 1970s. One of Griffith’s greatest professional triumphs—winning back the Welterweight Championship from Benny “The Kid” Paret in 1962—was also one of his greatest personal tragedies. The seventeen punches he landed on Paret in seven seconds resulted in not only a knockout\, but also a coma from which Paret would never recover. Paret would die ten days later. \nBefore that life-changing televised fight\, in a room full of press and officials\, Paret mocked Griffith repeatedly with a derogatory term for homosexual. Years later\, Griffith’s sexuality as a gay man was revealed to the public after he was nearly killed by a gang outside a gay bar in New York. “I kill a man\,” Griffith was quoted to have said\, “and most people understand and forgive me. I love a man\, and to so many people this is an unforgivable sin.” In an inspiring\, moving\, and painful journey of self-discovery\, Champion presents audiences with a great contemporary tragic hero—a man of strength and courage consumed ultimately by rage\, regret\, and the terrible consequences of his actions. \nABOUT FASHION ON FILM: THE LEGACY OF ALEXANDER McQUEEN\nIn conjunction with A Queen Within: Adorned Archetypes\, NOMA will screen five documentaries related to the fashion industry. Alexander McQueen (1969–2010) is among the designers represented in the exhibition. The Legacy of Alexander McQueen\, directed by Loïc Print\,  chronicles the last four collections before McQueen’s suicide in 2010. Through footage of his spectacular and provocative shows\, never-before-seen interviews of his mother and his relatives\, the documentary sheds light on the stunning world and the inspirations/obsessions of the world-renowned designer. (2015 | 53 minutes | Watch the trailer) \nFriday Nights at NOMA is supported in part by grant funds from the Azby Fund; Ruby K. Worner Charitable Trust; New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation; and the Louisiana Division of the Arts\, Office of Cultural Development\, Department of Culture\, Recreation and Tourism\, in cooperation with the Louisiana State Arts Council as administered by the Arts Council of New Orleans.

She was a spark\, an electrical impulse that set imaginations racing\, an individual who pushed others to create their best work.

SUMMARY:Special screening of The Square
DESCRIPTION:NOMA will screen Ruben Östlund’s  2017 Swedish satirical movie The Square\, starring Claes Bang\, Elisabeth Moss\, and Dominic West. The film centers around Christian\, the prestigious curator of a Stockholm museum who finds himself in times of both professional and personal crisis as he attempts to set up a controversial new exhibit\, “The Square.” The installation invites passersby to altruism\, reminding them of their role as responsible fellow human beings\, but as the movie’s storyline makes clear\, it can be difficult to live up to your own ideals. Christian’s foolish response to the theft of his phone drags him into shameful situations. Meanwhile\, the museum’s public relations agency has created an unexpected campaign for “The Square.” The response is overblown and sends Christian\, as well as the museum\, into an existential crisis. Movie critic Justin Chang of the Los Angeles Times wrote: “The Square may be many things — a high-wire ensemble comedy\, a vivid character study\, a tirelessly sustained volley of ideas — but it is no one’s idea of sanctuary.” (Rated R | 2 hours\, 31 minutes | Watch the trailer) \n

SUMMARY:Gallery Talk: A Queen Within with artist Joanne Petit-Frére
DESCRIPTION:Joanne Petit-Frére is among the designers represented in A Queen Within: Adorned Archetypes. She takes sculpture into new realms with her incredibly complex hair designs\, which call upon influences as diverse as math\, nature\, engineering\, chemistry\, garment construction\, Old World architecture\, Africa\, and the Americas. In 2017\, her work was at the center of a media controversy after the architectural braided crown she created for singer Solange Knowles was airbrushed out of the Evening Standard magazine’s cover story. The publication apologized after the singer posted the image on social media and referenced her own song\, “Don’t Touch My Hair.” \nImage: Joanne Petit-Frére\, Bishop Please braid hair sculpture\, Redressing the Crown series\, Courtesy of Joanne Petit-Frère\, Photo Michael Slosar

DESCRIPTION:What inspires a collector and when do personal collections become something more? Join us on select Fridays and Saturdays in January and February to explore the on-screen stories of passionate collectors who have helped shape the twenty-first-century art museum landscape. \n\nSaturday\, January 6\, 2 pm: Peggy Guggenheim: Art Addict\nFriday\, January 12\, 7:30 pm: Adele’s Wish\nSaturday\, January 27\, 2 pm: Who The #$&% Is Jackson Pollock?\nFriday\, February 16\, 7 pm: Herb and Dorothy\nSaturday\, February 17\, 2 pm: Iris\n\nABOUT WHO THE #$&% IS JACKSON POLLOCK?\nAfter Teri Horton\, a 73-year-old semi-truck driver with an eighth-grade education\, bought a large splatter painting for her friend at the Dot Spot Thrift Shop in San Bernardino\, California\, for $5\, she was forced to sell it in her own garage sale when her friend said it would not fit in her house trailer. An art teacher who spotted the painting commented that it might be an original work by Jackson Pollock—and potentially worth $50 million. This documentary follows Horton\, her son\, and a forensics specialist as they attempt to prove to the world\, or more specifically the art community\, that this unlikely find is a true modern masterpiece. In Who the #$&% Is Jackson Pollock? veteran documentary filmmaker Harry Moses exposes the controversy in the world of high-priced artwork as he paints a vivid picture of how art is bought and sold in America. (2006 | Rated PG-13 | 1 hour\, 14 minutes) \nWatch the trailer:

In September of 2005 he was in the last stages of preparation for a large private installation at The University of Southern Mississippi Gulf Park Campus Library when Hurricane Katrina destroyed the campus and damaged this body of work. This show and samplings of his work can be seen at KevinJohnOKeefe.com. After regrouping with the help of The Mississippi Arts Commission\, O’Keefe began refining undeveloped and unconventional techniques using salt. These works were promoted in various galleries on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and in New Orleans. Beyond ceramics\, O’Keefe’s fresh\, creative talent has led to a wide variety of projects\, including artistic designs for a Mississippi manufacturer of drum sticks\, graphic design of covers for several books and bibles\, and logos and marketing packages for several businesses. \nABOUT ODILI DONALD ODITA\nOdili Donald Odita is an African American abstract painter who lives and works in Philadelphia. Odita’s work explores color both in the figurative historical context and in the sociopolitical sense. His vibrant large-scale abstractions have been described as “showstoppers” and are considered to raise questions about race and society. Most of Odita’s work is inspired by the vibrant textiles of his home country\, Nigeria mixed with patterns from Western modernity. His Forever mural\, commissioned in 2011\, fills an entire wall in NOMA’s elevator lobby on the first floor. For Prospect.4\, he has created brightly multicolored flags installed at places of “cultural\, racial and historical importance” around the city\, and more of his work is on view aboard the Algiers ferry. \nOdita is primarily a painter\, but also works in photo-based pieces and installation art. He has experimented with a variety of media\, but his works since the 1990s are often large-scale paintings on canvas and Plexiglass. He sometimes paints directly on walls to alter the perception of space. Often involving “complex interlocking geometries and contrasting hues\,” his works are seen as raising significant questions about race and society. \nFriday Nights at NOMA is supported in part by grant funds from the Azby Fund; Ruby K. Worner Charitable Trust; New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival and Foundation; and the Louisiana Division of the Arts\, Office of Cultural Development\, Department of Culture\, Recreation and Tourism\, in cooperation with the Louisiana State Arts Council as administered by the Arts Council of New Orleans.

SUMMARY:NOMA Book Club Discussion Group
DESCRIPTION:Join NOMA staff and fellow book lovers as we read and discuss fiction and nonfiction books related to art\, artists\, art museums\, NOMA’s collections and exhibitions. Our full 2018 schedule and reading list has been announced. \nOrganized by NOMA’s Felix J. Dreyfous Library\, the Book Club is an informal group. You do not have to attend every meeting and we understand if you have to leave a discussion or program early. The book club offers several types of programs: a book discussion group that meets once a month (no reading in December)\, curatorial programs\, field trips\, and Meet the Author receptions. Most book club programs start promptly at noon\, but please arrive at 11:30 a.m. if you wish to bring a sack lunch or meet beforehand. NOMA will provide water and soft drinks. \nRSVP for the meetings you wish to attend so we can prepare the meeting space. \nPlease contact Sheila A. Cork at 504.658.4117 or scork@noma.org for information about joining the NOMA Book Club.\n \nJanuary 2018 Selection\nFabulous New Orleans by Lyle Saxon \nPelican\, 1988. ISBN: 978-0882897066 (Any edition is acceptable) \nLyle Saxon’s timeless impressions of colorful New Orleans\, first recorded more than half a century ago\, not only reveal inherent mystery and frivolity\, but also recall the city’s elaborate history\, spanning more than two centuries and three cultures. The various aspects of the French\, Spanish\, and Creole societies\, which continue to define today’s city\, are documented here through wide-ranging vignettes of daily life and elaborate rituals. A view of the Creole courtyard\, an account of the first settlers\, and a glimpse of the Zulu parade are typical of the many episodes from which the spirit of the city emerges.
