By EMILY MASON News Editor The coronavirus has con- sumed social media platforms recently, and the conversation and containment efforts sur- rounding the virus have inflamed years-old stigmas against Asians in New York City. Coronavirus, a pneumo- nia-like virus which originated in Central China’s Hubei province, has killed 811 people in China and infected 37,198, accord- ing to China’s National Health Commission. The concern in the United States surrounding the spread of the disease has domi- nated news cycles and tensions have built in New York City as the total number of people tested for the deadly disease in the city has risen to five.

By MINA MOHAMMADI Deputy News Editor After China’s leader Xi Jinping warned of the “accelerating spread” of coronavirus on Saturday, uni- versities across China, including NYU Shanghai, delayed the start of the spring academic semester. Parents and students, however, say it isn’t enough. This new virus — also known as 2019-nCoV — has killed at least 56 people and infected 2,000 since its discovery in the city of Wuhan.

    Wolf Kahn & Emily Mason A rare opportunity to compare and contrast the work of two very different painters By David Ebony Emily Mason, Surpassing Ermine, 1985–86. Oil on canvas, 60 x 52 inches. Courtesy the Emily Mason and Alice Trumbull Mason Foundation and Miles McEnery Gallery, New York. Artists, lovers, life-partners, art-world rivals, benefactors, and luminaries, Emily Mason (1932–2019) and Wolf Kahn (1927–2020) were all of these things—and more. Miles McEnery Gallery has devoted each of its two spaces to the first posthumous solo gallery exhibitions for the couple, who died within months of each other after more than sixty years of marriage. The shows offer a rare opportunity to compare and contrast the work of two very different painters—one abstract and the other figurative—who shared a passion for vibrant color, the bucolic landscapes of Vermont and Italy, and who both aimed in their works for pure, soul-baring expressivity. Filling the larger gallery at 525 West 22nd street, some 26, mostly large major works by Kahn feature his trademark landscapes with brilliant color contrasts and lively gestural touches. Despite deteriorating eyesight and other physical ailments in his last years, Kahn managed to produce some remarkably intense composi- 1 Wolf Kahn, Woodland Density, 2019, Oil on canvas, 52 x 52 inches.

  • Stripes—The Whole Idea Curated by Edith Newhall
    Stripes—the whole idea Curated by Edith Newhall Featuring works by: Gabriele Evertz, James Juszczyk, Joanne Mattera, Don Porcaro, Mary Schiliro, Melissa Staiger, & Kim Uchiyama y introduction to stripes as a certifiable subject for art came in 1971 when I was a student at Moore College of Art and visited England for the first time. It was there that I saw Bridget Riley’s hypnotic stripe paintings in her first museum survey at the Hayward Gallery. A year later, I witnessed firsthand Gene Davis’s spectacular Franklin’s ​ Footsteps as it was being painted on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. At the time, the ​ 414-foot-long painting of candy-colored stripes in front of the Philadelphia Museum of Art was the largest artwork in the world. Gene Davis, Franklin’s Footpath, 1972 ​ ​ Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Photograph by Henry Groskinsky/The LIFE Images Collection via Getty Images Stripes are first and foremost templates for artists’ personal attractions and philosophies, even when that stance might be “what you see is what you see,” as Frank Stella famously quipped of his early paintings. What’s often forgotten about Frank Stella’s terse remark—made during a Q&A published in ARTnews in 1966—is that he prefaced it by saying, “All I want anyone to get out of my paintings is the fact that you can see the whole idea without any conclusion…” It’s not even clear that Stella wanted his paintings to be considered purely for their formal properties. How can his evocative titles, among them Valparaiso Flesh and Green, Palisades, Honduras ​ Lottery Co., and Palmito Ranch not stir romantic thoughts? Stella later admitted to ​ ​ ​ “emotional ambiguities” in his works.

  • Unexpected Charges Leave Students Distrustful of Courtesy Meals Program
    4 CULTURE 9 OPINION This First-Year Finds Community Courtesy Meals Shouldn’t Come in Cooking at a Price 6 ARTS 10 SPORTS Charly Bliss Comes of Age, Led by Judo at NYU, a Balancing Act Clive Davis Alumna VOLUME LIII | ISSUE 12 MONDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2019 Unexpected Charges Leave Students Distrustful of Courtesy Meals Program Some of those who used the Courtesy Meals Program found funds from their financial aid diverted to covering its cost. By VICTOR PORCELLI News Editor The Courtesy Meals Program, which is supposed to be free, affected some financially vulnerable stu- dents’ aid packages this week, leading to confusion and distrust of the program. The CMP provides students with Dining Dol- lars — and, as of recently, meal swipes — to ensure they don’t go hungry. However, a small group of users received an email from the Office of Financial Aid on Wednesday notifying them that their finan- cial aid packages would be adjusted due to their use of the program. Student government Chairperson and Gallatin se- nior Jakiyah Bradley previously served as a Senator at- Large for food-insecure students. Bradley first learned about the policy change through a constituent, but saw Instagram stories drawing attention to it being widely circulated by students. Bradley said immedi- ately after hearing about students’ financial aid being affected, she brought the issue to administrators who said they would begin working to resolve it. One of the first to post it to their story, Steinhardt senior Elaine Cao had $150 taken out of their work- study to go toward the CMP.
