Museum and a Movie: Koyaanisqatsi
This event has passed.
Explore the intersection of art, film, and environmentalism at The Wolfsonian–FIU with a special Museum and Movie night dedicated to Godfrey Reggio's 1982 cult classic, Koyaanisqatsi.
This thought-provoking event kicks off at 6:15 p.m. with a guided tour of "The Big World: Alternative Landscapes in the Modern Era" exhibition. The tour will explore artistic responses to humanity's impact on the environment.
Following the tour, at 7:00 p.m., settle in for a screening of Koyaanisqatsi, a visually stunning film that juxtaposes breathtaking natural landscapes with the frenetic energy of modern life. The film's minimalist style and Philip Glass's haunting score create a powerful meditation on humanity's place in the world.
The evening concludes with a post-film discussion at 8:30 p.m., featuring FIU Religious Studies professor Dr. Whitney Bauman. Dr. Bauman will delve into the film's enduring themes and explore its relevance to contemporary conversations on ecological ethics.
