Скачать или смотреть The MacArthur Fellowship, Ben Katchor and Ada Louise Huxtable | CUNY Laureates

On the season premiere of CUNY Laureates, we begin a new series on MacArthur Fellowship winners from the City University of New York. First, we get a crash course in the MacArthur Foundation’s so-called “Genius Grant”, a no-strings-attached fellowship for academics and creatives across every section of society. Artist Ben Katchor explores the obscure and fleeting corners of New York through the art of the comic strip. And we learn how Ada Louise Huxtable, the first full-time architecture critic at the New York Times, used her writing talent to fight for the soul of our city.

CUNY Laureates is a documentary series about the lives and achievements of CUNY graduates who went on to win major awards in their respective fields. By reintroducing these exceptional minds to younger audiences, we hope to emphasize the value of a high-quality public education and demonstrate how it can transcend all social and political boundaries, even to this day.
