My fave in the #meretoppenheim show opening this Sunday @MuseumModernArt: “X-Ray of M.O.’s Skull” (1964/1981). With the necklaces, rings & earrings that were essential to her persona, even as a skeleton. My @WSJ story from the show's Swiss debut: on.wsj.com/3W5wfPM #art
Opening 10/30 @artbma, "A Movement in Every Direction: Legacies of the Great Migration" presents 12 contemporary Black artists' creative meditations on their families' histories & more. Here, a work by Jamea Richmond-Edwards. My @WSJ story: on.wsj.com/3yXrIoh #blackartist
David Hammons, "Untitled Reed Fetish (Flight Fantasy)," 1978. In "Just Above Midtown: Changing Spaces," the long-awaited show on the pioneering Black-artist-focused gallery, opening Sunday @MuseumModernArt. Kudos to the artists, founder Linda Goode Bryant & MoMA's T. Jean Lax.
So where did John Singer Sargent go for a break from all the portrait-painting? "Sargent and Spain" traces his 7 sojourns there. Opening Sunday @ngadc. Here, "Pomegranates, Majorca," 1908. Perfect for Jewish New Year, too. Shana Tova. My @WSJ story: on.wsj.com/3DTQV6x #art
Back again on @tcm! With favorite Soundies like "Hot Chocolate (Cottontail)," shown here, "Swing for Sale" & more. @davekarger and I open tomorrow evening 9/21 at 8 p.m. ET. Then back at 9:30 or so, closing around 11:30 ET with that Soundies gem, "When Hitler Kicks the Bucket."

Tomorrow night! Join @tcm host Dave Karger and me for “Introducing the Soundies,” an evening of three-minute gems and related classic movies—including Dorothy Dandridge in the Soundie “Cow Cow Boogie,” airing in our first Soundies set at 9:30 p.m. Eastern time. @soundiesbook
Kudos to Doris Berger + @rhea_combs for "Regeneration" @AcademyMuseum. @WSJ calls the exhibition “a potent corrective to our notions of American film history, amplifying our understanding and appreciation of black performers and filmmakers, both in and out of Hollywood." Brava!
Excited to co-present @tcm's terrific selection of Soundies next Wednesday evening 9/7. Starring Dorothy Dandridge, Cab Calloway, Liberace, Doris Day, and many more. First program @ 9:30, after an 8 p.m. documentary on Soundies. #1940s #film #music #musicfilm #TCM #watchparty

As background extras they were never credited, but Vivian and Hibby Brown added sparkle to NY-produced Soundies. I write about them in "Soundies and the Changing Image of Black Americans on Screen." But for now, save the date! @tcm @davekarger #soundiesbook #twinsduo #blackfilm

“Power dressing” wasn't a catchphrase in colonial Spanish America, but it was a familiar concept. @BlantonMuseum, “Painted Cloth: Fashion and Ritual in Colonial Latin America” looks at fashion, the self, and the sacred. My @WSJ story: on.wsj.com/3RBfCcp
A major achievement for all involved. Can't wait to see the exhibition.
Rents were cheap, lofts were big, and Manhattan was raw material. @TheJewishMuseum, “New York: 1962-1964” surveys the art of a city on the upswing. Here, Claes Oldenburg’s “Braselette,” 1961, for sale in his Lower East Side storefront. My @WSJ story: on.wsj.com/3ALjUrL
Tomorrow night I'll be @MayslesCinema for the final program in the "Home to Harlem" series curated by Ina Archer and Emily Apter--including the incomparable Nina Mae McKinney in "The Black Network." Join us for screening & conversation @ 7:30. #blackfilm #Harlem #soundiesbook
A terrific submissions list this year. Looking forward to the award announcement in October.
This screening will be fun! A book-signing too, for "Soundies and the Changing Image of Black Americans on Screen: One Dime at a Time." @FilmForumNYC #PrideMonth2022 #1940s #WorldWar2 #glamour
