WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — On Saturday, Aug. 9, at 11 am, the Clark Art Institute celebrates the opening of its newest exhibition "Isamu Noguchi: Landscapes of Time" with a free lecture. 
 
The Isamu Noguchi Museum Foundation and Garden Museum's Matthew Kirsch, curator and director of research, and Kate Wiener, curator, introduce the exhibition. The lecture takes place in the Clark's auditorium, located in the Manton Research Center.
 
According to a press release:
 
Isamu Noguchi: Landscapes of Time explores Noguchi's fluid relationship with time—his ability to move between past, present, and future in his art. Through sculpture, design, and public works, Noguchi engaged with geologic time, material life cycles, and memory. Kirsch and Wiener provide insight into how Noguchi's non-linear approach shaped his work, from ancient influences to futuristic visions, offering a deeper understanding of his search for belonging beyond temporal constraints.
 
Free. Accessible seats available; for information call 413 458 0524.
 
"Isamu Noguchi: Landscapes of Time" is co-organized by the Clark Art Institute and The Isamu Noguchi Foundation and Garden Museum, and curated by the Museum's Curator and Director of Research Matthew Kirsch and Curator Kate Wiener.
 
Support for this exhibition is provided by Cynthia and Ron Beck.

Williamstown's Images Cinema Set for May 22 Reopening

WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Images Cinema will be making up for lost time when the non-profit venue reopens this month after a major renovation and redesign.
 
"First Look," a two-week festival screening some of the biggest films of the last year, will usher in a new era for the century-old Spring Street venue.
 
The Oscar winner for Best Picture is just one of more than a dozen films that will be shown during the festival, which will run from May 22 through June 4.
 
"After a long, cold winter, we're so excited to fully spring back into action at Images," Executive Director Dan Hudson said in a news release. "What better way to celebrate with the community than by showing great films, some of which we have not yet been able to present?"
 
Images members will be able to see films ranging from "One Battle After Another" to "Zootopia 2" for free. Non-members will be able to attend for just $5 during the two-week festival.
 
The theater itself figures to be part of the draw.
 
After closing for renovations in October, Images will reopen with a new configuration, including a 70-seat main theater, an 18-seat second theater and a 15-seat lounge available for "intimate" screenings and events. The main screen will feature Dolby Atmos immersive sound and 4K laser projection. The second screen will have 7.1 surround sound and 2K laser projection.
