A MID-SUMMER MEDITERRANEAN ESCAPE! Cinema Paradiso and Nicostratos Pelican to be Screened at Christopher Columbus Park Mayor Menino’s Office of Arts, Tourism and Special Events in partnership with The Italian Consulate, the Greek Consulate, and the French Cultural Center invite you to a mid-summer Mediterranean escape by screening two for- eign films in idyllic Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park. Cinema Paradiso will play on Thursday, August 29th and Nicostratos Pelican will be aired on Friday, August 30th. Both movies will start at 8:00 pm. Cinema Paradiso, released in 1988, is an Italian drama and example of “nostalgic postmodernism”. The film is told largely through flashbacks of a successful film director to his childhood years, it also tells the story of the return to his native Sicilian village for the funeral of his old friend, Alfredo. Alfredo serves as a wise father figure to his young friend who only wishes to see him succeed, even if it means breaking his heart in the process. Nicostratos Pelican is the tale of a young Greek boy, Yannis. Following the death of his Mother and strained relationship with his fisherman father, Yannis finds love and friendship one magical summer. For more info please visit www.cityofboston.gov/arts.

Ken-nedy Greenway. Ritchie’s new work — to be completed mid-September — draws inspiration from Boston’s history and water- front location and will feature a unique digital component with music by (The National) and a short film by the artist, accessible by all wireless devices. The new mural is the second pub- lic art partnership between the ICA and the Greenway, following the Os Gemeos mural in 2012. With the recent develop- ment of a five-year public art strategy, the Rose Kennedy Greenway Conservancy is committed to presenting ex- ceptional contemporary art on the Greenway. “Public art enriches urban life, and adds to the vibrancy of our parks and the City of Boston. We are proud that the Greenway can be a place where art is accessible to all and a space that encourages interaction and dialogue among visitors,” said Jesse Brackenbury, Chief Operating Officer of the Rose Kennedy Greenway Conservancy. The mural marks the start of Ritchie’s ambitious, 18- month residency at the ICA — organized by Jenelle Por- ter, Mannion Family Senior Curator — that encompasses several major works and will activate the entire museum through installation, sound, performance, and video. In addition to the Greenway mural, the project includes a large-scale installation on the Sandra and Gerald R. Fineberg Art Wall at the ICA, a residency with the ICA Teen Arts Council and mul- tiple performances, including compositions from The Long Count — a collaborative work Ritchie created with, among others, Bryce and Aaron Dessner (The National), and Kim and (). Ritchie is also planning two new musical performances that will take place both on site at the ICA and at the nearby Chapel of Our Lady of Good Voyage. The aim of Ritchie’s overall
