Spies in the House of Art: Photography, Film and Video
Presented by Metropolitan Museum of Art
Since the 1980s, a number of contemporary artists working in photography, film, and video have taken as their subject the art museum and how we view specific works from the canon of art history. 'Spies in the House of Art: Photography, Film, and Video' draws largely from the Museum's collection to focus on artists from the last three decades who explore the secret lives of museums. This installation in the Joyce and Robert Menschel Hall for Modern Photography features 17 works, half of which have never been shown before at the Metropolitan.

Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations
Presented by Metropolitan Museum of Art
The Met's Spring 2012 Costume Institute exhibition, 'Schiaparelli and Prada: Impossible Conversations,' explores the striking affinities between Elsa Schiaparelli and Miuccia Prada, two Italian designers from different eras. Inspired by Miguel Covarrubias's "Impossible Interviews" for Vanity Fair in the 1930s, the exhibition features fictive conversations between these iconic women to suggest new readings of their most innovative work. Iconic ensembles will be presented with videos of simulated conversations between Schiaparelli and Prada directed by Baz Luhrmann, focusing on how both women explored similar themes in their work through very different approaches. The exhibition will showcase approximately 90 designs and 30 accessories by Schiaparelli (1890-1973) from the late 1920s to the early 1950s and by Prada from the late 1980s to the present. Drawn from The Costume Institute's collection and the Prada Archive, as well as other institutions and private collections, signature objects by both designers will be arranged in seven themed galleries: "Waist Up/Waist Down," "Ugly Chic," "Hard Chic," "Naïf Chic," "The Classical Body," "The Exotic Body," and "The Surreal Body."

Taken together, they produce a sweeping, dynamic, and generous portrait of the city and its people.

Ofri Cnaani: Special Effects
Presented by Andrea Meislin Gallery
'Special Effects' features a new series of cyanotypes, prints and a media installation, titled 'Magic on Hold,' which explores how trickery is generated. An assemblage of low-fi moviemakers, photographs of slides, cameras and other devices give the viewer a rare sense of visual unrest. Cnaani's cyanotypes invent often enigmatic scenarios as film celluloid, silhouettes, paper cut-outs, tiny objects and broken glass are placed over blue photosensitive paper. This photographic print process is known as a blueprint. Cnaani's photographic work and prints are a continuation of her live-cinema performances.
