For sanity’s sake, we’re taking a break from election news today to focus on other important issues, including the artists and organizers leading the fight for affordable housing in New York in a new comics series by Noah Fischer and a print sale to benefit humanitarian aid in Lebanon.
Also today: Tracey Emin’s close encounter with mortality, architect Paul Rudolph’s unbuilt masterpieces, celebrations of Soviet filmmaker Sergei Parajanov’s centennial, A View From the Easel, Required Reading, and more. Have a good Friday, despite it all. — Hakim Bishara, Senior Editor | |
