The event will be held twice on Tuesday, March 14, at 12:30 and 6:30 p.m. Revolution — New Art for a New World is a bold and excit- ing feature documentary that encapsulates a momentous period in the history of Russia and the Russian Avant Garde. Drawing on the collections of major Russian institutions, contributions from contempo- rary artists, curators, perform- ers and personal testimony from the descendants of those involved, the film brings the artists of the Russian Avant- Garde to life. It tells the stories of artists like Chagall, Kandinsky, Malevich and others — pio- neers who flourished in response to the Utopian chal- lenge of building a New Art for a New World, only to be bro- ken by implacable authority after 15 short years. After the show, join FRAA’s Harlen Springer as he takes the audience through his recent journey to Russia, showing public art from the country and speaking about the influence of art on the culture. Harlen will also present exhibits and a plethora of public art projects from around the world that will both fascinate and inspire. Finally, Harlen will offer a look at the future of art with proposals of spectacular public art right here in Florence. Tickets for Revolution — Art for a New World are avail- able at City Lights Cinemas or online at citylightscinemas .com. Tickets are $9 for adults, $8 for seniors and students, and $7 for City Lights membership holders.
