Medical teams are able to save her life, but not her leg – and Linda must navigate an untrodden path as she relearns to walk and finds new footing with the support of family, friends, and a high-tech prosthetic. Through it all, one goal sustains her: the pure joy of getting back on a horse. It's a different kind of ride – one of survival, new beginnings, and never giving up.

A wakeup call to millions as dense, yellow smoke covered most of the tri-state area due to wildfires in Canada. As a filmmaker, I knew I had to release this film as soon as humanly possible to spread awareness about our climate crisis. In this short documentary, we bring attention to the summer 2022 wildfires that burned their way through our state parks in The Hudson Valley. This one hits close to home, as New Paltz students, and as New Yorkers. Wildfires will become more and more prevalent globally, and on the East Coast due to rising temperatures, and historic drought. We follow along with a nature loving, long distance backpacker, a park ranger, and a New Paltz Rescue member, as they describe their experience with this massive wildfire. Our mission is to bring awareness to climate change, and how it's closer to the East Coast than you may think.

The latest episode of our conversation series hosted by Helen Molesworth explores how Felix Gonzalez-Torres experimented with the genre of portraiture. Helen takes us from the Harvard Art Museums to the David Zwirner galleries in New York, interviewing artists Coco Fusco and Glenn Ligon and the legendary collector Nancy Magoon about authoring new versions of "Untitled" (Portrait of the Magoons), 1993. The work is included in the exhibition "Felix Gonzalez-Torres," on view across our 519, 525, and 533 West 19th Street galleries through Saturday, February 25. #program #felixgonzaleztorres #portrait #modernart #contemporaryart #portraitpainting
