Houdini: Art & Magic
Join us for a presentation on Houdini: Art & Magic, an exhibition on view at the Contemporary Jewish Museum through January 16, 2012. The first major exhibition to examine Houdini's life, legend, and enduring cultural influence, it includes more than 160 objects including magic apparatus, a recreation of the famous Water Torture Cell, historic photographs, dramatic art nouveau-era posters, theater ephemera, archival and silent films and more. The exhibition also features 26 contemporary works of art by Jane Hammond, Vik Muniz, Raymond Pettibon and more that bring to light Houdini's lasting impact on contemporary art and culture.
In partnership with the CJM and the Koret Taube Initiative on Jewish Peoplehood.
