For alliances with the beaver people features an 11 meter-long embroidered tapestry that illustrates key moments in the history of beaver-human relationships, tracing how rivers evolve through collaborations between these two species. An explicit reference to the 11th-century Bayeux Tapestry that depicted 58 unique scenes of battle, Husky’s work uses this tapestry form to visualize cross-species mutuality and regeneration rather than battle. The exhibition also features a documentary film about the Vermont naturalist Patti Smith, who takes us into her world of beaver friends and teachers. For the exhibition reception on February 12, Husky will be joined by a panel of researchers, writers, and naturalists (including Patti Smith) to discuss beaver ecologies and the future of their watersheds.In collaboration with Picker Art Gallery.

In hallowing Martin Luther King Jr., we have hollowed him. We have replaced his radical vision for justice with a romantic image of a man who stands for little more than love and peace. For the past seven years, Jonathan Eig has traveled across the country, meeting the people who knew King personally, recording their stories and learning about the real MLK — the complicated one, the flawed one, the radical one, the one we really need in today’s bitter divided world.Jonathan Eig is the Pulitzer-Prize-winning author of King: A Life. He's the author of six books, four of them New York Times best sellers. The New York Times hailed King as the "definitive" biography of Martin Luther King Jr.

Narrated by Patrick Stewart, viewers witness an amazing variety of stars and peer into their secret lives. Some stars are massive. Others are tiny, nearly insignificant. The specific characteristics of a star will determine what type of life it will lead, how long it might live and even the type of death it will die.
