Creative Collaboration | Big Art | May 24, recommended by Amelia Taylor-Hochberg

The South Cove in Battery Park is a joint design by environmental artist Mary Miss (one of the event's featured speakers), architect Stanton Eckstut, and landscape artist Susan Child.

The notion of the architect as a master collaborator is starting to finally overtake its casting as the lone genius, slaving away in solitude on their creative creation. One of the architect's chief collaborators has historically been artists – but, as this panel will discuss, the path isn't always so smooth. At this panel (free for AIA members!), Artists will share their experiences collaborating on large-scale design works, focusing on issues of funding, ownership, and context.

​Graphic design icon Seymour Chwast in conversation with Steven Heller​ | May 24, recommended by Justine Testado​

Graphic design geeks! Don't miss this free public conversation featuring icon Seymour Chwast at the Cooper Union Tuesday night. Chwast and Steven Heller, co-chair of the School of Visual Arts MFA Design, will discuss the topic of designers as activists and artists and also Chwast's new book “Seymour Chwast At War with War: An Illustrated Timeline of 5000 Years of Conquests, Invasions, and Terrorist Attacks​”. Another bonus: Chwast will share some of his unpublished works.

Moholy-Nagy: Future Present | Open May 27 until September 7, recommended by Nicholas Korody

The Guggenheim is putting on the first comprehensive retrospective of the work of László Moholy-Nagy in some fifty years. If you're not familiar with his work (or if you are), this shouldn't be missed. The founder of the Chicago Institute of Design and a professor at the original Bauhaus, Moholy-Nagy's importance can't really be overstated. While primarily known for his photography and print work, his influence extends far into other disciplines including architecture (in the work of the late Dame Hadid, for example).

LANDMARK | Open now until August 28, recommended by Alexander Walter

One more month until the annual Folly competition winner opens to the public at the Socrates Sculpture Park in Queens (read more about Hou de Sousa's selected entry "Sticks"). In the mean time, the park isn't sitting idle but opened the exhibition LANDMARK earlier this month to celebrate the institution's 30th anniversary. The event features a series of eight commissions and projects including the gigantic living earthwork installation "Concave Room for Bees" by Meg Webster.

Also keep track of our weekly event picks for Los Angeles and London.
