RECEPTION 5:00 pm // SCREENING 6:00 pm
FREE film screening followed by discussion with director Kathy Brew. Lella and Massimo Vignelli are two of the world’s most influential designers. Their work covers such a broad spectrum that one could say they are known by everyone, even by those who don’t know their names. Luminaries from the world of design – from architects, Richard Meier and Peter Eisenman, to graphic designers, Milton Glaser, Michael Bierut, and Jessica Helfand – bring us into Vignellis’ world, capturing their intelligence and creativity, as well as their humanity, warmth, and humor.

CARDIAC DANCE is based on the twisting, pulsing rhythms of the human heart in motion.

What you will see on stage is their attempt to show this revolutionary concept through dance, music and media.
