Modernity 3.0: Bridging East-West Art

80 Washington Square East

Now Through July 12th

"Modernity 3.0 intends to respond to the current crisis of Western modernity as part of a cosmopolitan course involving a worldwide transition of views. In this ongoing transition, a modernity referred to as Modernity 1.0 - characterized by traditional nation states - was transplanted by Modernity 2.0 - an ultimate form of globalization, where a compressed world without any boundary arose. However, such a compressed, globalized world producing the core notion of proximity, i.e. a world without any layer or distance, seems to no longer match today’s cultural and economic developments. We seem to have achieved a state of Modernity connoting a world where multidimensionality and the novel notion of rooted cosmopolitanism has erased a totalitarian form of globalized proximity."

International Student Coffee Hour TODAY!

This week’s Coffee Hour will cover accelerated Bachelor’s/Master’s programs offered by CAS in conjunction with GSAS, Steinhardt and Wagner. Our CAS Advising colleague Scott Statland -- Associate Director of Juniors, Cross-School Minors, and Bachelor's/Master's Programs – will join us for the discussion. These accelerated programs present an amazing opportunity to complete graduate-level coursework in a timely and cost-effective manner. Having a master’s degree can help in many ways, including by providing for enhanced employment opportunities, by strengthening applications for further graduate work, and by fostering intellectual enrichment in a student’s field of study.

[Event] Media & Asian Globalization: China and India, 1977-Present

Friday, March 29, 2013 | 2:15-7:30 pm
Saturday, March 30, 2013 | 9:15 am-4:45 pm
Michelson Theater, 721 Broadway, 6th Floor

• Conference Schedule
• RSVP

The extraordinary growth of China and India over the past three decades, involving the two most populous countries in the world, has set in motion a process of social change that, in its scale and speed, is without parallel in recorded history. The roughly contemporaneous entry of China and India into a period of rapid capitalist growth and market consumption offers important questions for humanistic inquiry. This symposium seeks to engage in productive conversations from trans-Asian and trans-media perspectives, as well as investigate the historical conditions from which the reform-era cultural productions arise and cross borders of one kind of another.

Cosponsored by Global Research Initiatives, NYU Provost; Cinema Studies, Tisch School of the Arts; The Humanities Initiative at NYU; Department of Media, Culture and Communication, NYU Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development.

TONIGHT!: Gaza Kitchen

Gaza Kitchen: A Palestinian Culinary Journey

March 12, 2013 | 5:00 pm
411 Lafayette, Floor 5

Brought to you by NYU Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development

Authors Laila El-Haddad and Maggie Schmitt present an intimate perspective never offered in the media: how conflict and siege play out in the daily lives of ordinary people, and how people--particularly women--manage to create little spaces of vitality and joy in the midst of it all.

 

Come celebrate the launch of an exceptional work that provides rare insight into Gaza's culture and cuisine. A cookbook and more than a cookbook, The Gaza Kitchen: A Palestinian Culinary Journey brings together traditional recipes from the Gaza Strip based on extensive interviews with home cooks, and uses profiles of these cooks, as well as beautiful documentary photography to explore the history, economy and daily life of the territory.
