The exhibition, Infrastructure in a Time of Flux: Methods, Conditions, and Situations, curated by Rahul Mehrotra and Dan Borelli, brings together architectural, engineering, planning, and design ideas whose potential has yet to be fully realized. This opening event celebrates the power of art to bring these questions to life.

Join us for an evening that begins with a guided walk-through of the gallery, led by the exhibition’s curators, followed by a screening of a clip from the documentary film Running Fence (directed by Albert Maysles, David Maysles, and Charlotte Zwerin, 1977), about Christo and Jeanne-Claude’s installation. After the screening, Vladimir Yavachev, director of operations at the Christo and Jeanne-Claude Foundation, and Antoine Picon will join the curators to discuss the film and its legacy.
