Join us and ArtCenter faculty Ramone Muñoz for a brief conversation with filmmaker Márton Oroz on the Los Angeles debut of his seminal documentary.
A prominent figure in the mid-20th-century art and design scene, György Kepes (1906–2001) was a pivotal contributor to the international development of art and design theory and the application of design principles in various fields. As the architect of the Light Workshop at the New Bauhaus/School of Design in Chicago in 1937 and as the founder and first director of the Center for Advanced Visual Studies (CAVS) at MIT in 1967, Kepes’ enterprise was to fill the gap between the humanities and the sciences.
Documentary director Márton Orosz is the curator of the collection of photography and media arts at the Museum of Fine Arts–Hungarian National Gallery in Budapest. He has been publishing widely on new media, kinetic and concrete art, photography, and film history.
The György Kepes: Interthinking Art + Science film premiere is co-presented by Fulcrum Arts and ArtCenter’s Williamson Gallery.
