Morrison Secretary Happy Summer Everyone! Dr. Susan Ohmer I think Michiana is a very special place to be in the summer. We seem to have a little of everything. I Directors love going to Lake Michigan beaches and enjoy the food and music at our summer festivals. Each of Thomas G. Coley, Ph.D. our Michiana communities has its own special personality and charm. Kathryn Demarais Irene E. Eskridge Here at WNIT, your PBS station, we’ve been busy preparing for “Michiana’s Rising Star.” That’s our William A. Gitlin regional talent show which has now completed its audition phase. We started out with over 150 Tracy D. Graham hopeful performers and whittled that list down to about 125. We wanted to have 25 contestants Albert L. Gutierrez at each of our regional judging sites. In Benton Harbor, South Bend, Elkhart, Culver and Warsaw, James W. Hillman our contenders gave it their best before a panel of four judges and our WNIT television cameras. Najeeb A. Khan Five finalists were announced from each location. We are now editing all this footage to produce a Glenn E. Killoren series of “Michiana’s Rising Star” television specials. Please look for the schedule inside your WNIT Paul A. Marsh Planner. Watch and vote – yes, vote. We will give you an opportunity to text-vote for your favorite Ryan Matthys performer while you make a contribution to WNIT. Christine M. Maziar I enjoyed attending the regional competitions. In addition to meeting a lot of nice people and Mary Louise Miller faithful PBS viewers, I’ve been amazed at the quality of the talent! I guess that shouldn’t surprise Pat Moody me. I’m just glad my job is general manager of WNIT rather than a “Michiana’s Rising Star” judge. Jill Richardson It would be too difficult a task to only pick five finalists from each location. Please watch to see if Maritza Robles you agree. I think “Michiana’s Rising Star” has a great future as an annual event! Cari Shein Thomas E. Slager And speaking of local specials, “Our Town Elkhart,” is another program to check in your Planner. James M. Summers This program is special because of the way we produce the “Our Town” series. We recruit local Michael J. Wargo videographers to “film” the segments. Each town is shown through the video eyes of its people. It’s Patrick Welch great storytelling and another way of putting the public in Public TV. Charter Directors Remember the slogan, “WNIT belongs to me!” We’re thinking of reviving it. I personally think it is Mr. Arthur J. Decio right on target. I’d like your thoughts about this. Inside the Planner you will see another request for Mr. Jerry Hammes input. We are thinking of shifting the “PBS NewsHour” to 6pm (from 7pm). What do you think? Mrs. Ernestine M. Raclin Mrs. Jane Warner All the wonderful productions we create would never happen without your support. Thank you, Mr. Dar Wiekamp* thank you, thank you.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

  • 40 Anni Di Memphis in Mostra Al Vitra Design Museum
    https://living.corriere.it/tendenze/design/40-anni-di-memphis-in-mostra-al-vitra-design-museum/ 40 anni di Memphis in mostra al Vitra Design Museum Il museo tedesco celebra il gruppo fondato da Ettore Sottsass che ha rivoluzionato l'estetica Anni 80. E influenza ancora generazioni di creativi. Dal 6 febbraio 2021 al 23 gennaio 2022 Testo di Luca Trombetta – Foto Studio Azzurro / Memphis Che stagione formidabile quella del gruppo Memphis. In soli sette anni – dal 1980/81 al 1987, circa – rivoluzionò il modo di vedere e di pensare il design dei decenni successivi e ancora oggi il suo influsso si ritrova nelle collezioni di diversi designer in una sorta di revival Anni 80, tra citazioni nostalgiche e coraggiosi omaggi. Collettivo italiano di design e architettura radunatosi a Milano attorno alla figura magnetica di Ettore Sottsass, Memphis fu l’espressione più alta del movimento Postmoderno in Italia e, con la sua forza dirompente, si affrancò dagli stereotipi del funzionalismo che avevano caratterizzato il design nostrano fino agli Anni 70, ricorrendo a colori sgargianti, forme geometriche, pattern optical, nonché una rilettura ironica e intelligente del kitsch. A quarant’anni dalla sua fondazione, il Vitra Design Museum di Weil am Rhein celebra l’anniversario del gruppo con la mostra Memphis: 40 Years of Kitsch and Elegance curata da Mateo Kries e in calendario dal 6 febbraio 2021 al 23 gennaio 2022. Attraverso una selezione di arredi, lampade, oggetti, disegni, fotografie e materiali d’archivio racconta la portata di una rivoluzione estetica che celebrava il Pop, il banale e il quotidiano e rompeva i tabù del buon gusto e del minimalismo.

  • Letter Supporting the Designation of Philip Johnson and John Burgee's
    H 20 November 2017 Ms. Meenakshi Srinivasan, Chair New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission Municipal Building 1 Centre Street, 9th Floor, North New York, NY 10007 [email protected] Re: Support for designation of Philip Johnson and John Burgee’s AT&T Building, 550 Madison, Avenue, New York, as an individual landmark Dear Ms. Srinivasan, The Society of Architectural Historians (SAH) expresses strong support for the prompt calendaring and designation of the AT&T Building as an individual and interior landmark by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission. The AT&T Building, designed by Philip Johnson and John Burgee, was constructed between 1978 and 1984 and is rightly recognized as a landmark of postmodern American architecture. When completed, it joined Michael Graves’ Portland Municipal Services Building in Portland Oregon (1980-82) as the most visible expressions of postmodern architecture in the United States. The building is significant not only for its iconic Chippendale-inspired pediment, but for the soaring seven- story lobby entered through a distinctive Palladian arch and arcade, which lobby is the subject of the proposed inappropriate alteration. This lobby is of particular significance; of 119 interior landmarks in New York, only eight were completed after 1950. Few publically accessible postmodern interiors survive, and this is undoubtedly one of the finest. We strongly urge the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission to move expeditiously towards Landmarks Commission listing of the AT&T Building, including designation as both an individual and an interior landmark. We believe that Johnson and Burge’s design is of international significance, and the listing of both would insure the preservation of one of the most noteworthy postmodern buildings and interiors produced in the United States.
