Join us for a special film screening and discussion of David Lynch’s “Blue Velvet” with Geoff Klock of CUNY. It is a perfect union with the current exhibition, “PORTAL The Window in American Photography.”
Our PORTAL series continues with David Lynch, who began life as a painter — and whose Blue Velvet uses the Hopper-esque figure of a nude woman isolated in an apartment as a jumping off point for a study of 1950s small-town America, one where where voyeurism reveals a catastrophic evil around the corner, tantalizingly just out of frame.
