On the occasion of his exhibition The Geometry of Colour, Lehmann Maupin will screen a selection of Robin Rhode's animations throughout the day on Saturday, March 3 and Saturday, March 10 at 536 West 22nd Street, New York.
Each day will also feature a special screening of Rhode's Performa 15 commission, Arnold Schönberg's Erwartung - A Performance by Robin Rhodeat 2 PM. Set in New York City’s Times Square, the intimate one-person opera is scaled to dramatic proportions within this most public of settings, giving a candid and global voice to the social and cultural trauma of South African racial politics and migrant labor; a woman’s anguish explodes on the streets of New York as an operatic monument to lamentation.
