Please join NYC Audubon for IN CONVERSATION: THE AUDUBON MURAL PROJECT, a presentation by Gail Albert Halaban, George Boorujy, and Avi Gitler, featuring moderator Cathie Behrend Monday, March 2, 7-8pm Parish House of Madison Avenue Presbyterian Church 921 Madison Avenue, New York, NY
Join us for an evening’s exploration of the Audubon Mural Project, a public art initiative of the National Audubon Society executed in partnership with Gitler &_____ Gallery. Inspired by the legacy of John James Audubon, the project commissions artists to paint murals of birds threatened by climate change in hopes of calling attention to their plight. This “conversation” will feature three unique perspectives: Gail Albert Halaban is a photographer whose quest to document the murals recently culminated in an exhibit at the Aperture Foundation. George Boorujy is an artist who has been an integral part of the project and whose work has been exhibited nationally and internationally. Avi Gitler is the owner of Gitler &_____ Gallery and the driving force behind the project. Cathie Behrend, Founder of VenturesinVision public art tours and former Deputy Director of the New York City’s Percent for Art program will moderate the discussion. -- NYSbirds-L List Info: http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsWELCOME.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsRULES.htm http://www.NortheastBirding.com/NYSbirdsSubscribeConfigurationLeave.htm ARCHIVES: 1) http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/maillist.html 2) http://www.surfbirds.com/birdingmail/Group/NYSBirds-L 3) http://birding.aba.org/maillist/NY01 Please submit your observations to eBird: http://ebird.org/content/ebird/ --
