Member Event: Harvard Treasures Tour of the Schwartz Art Collection at the Harvard Business School

2013-05-24T16:00:00Z

Schwartz Art Collection at the Harvard Business School, 117 Western Avenue (between Heﬀeran and Hague streets), Boston, MA 02134
Friday, May 24, 2013, 12 – 1:30pm

We’re delighted to oﬀer an exclusive tour of the Schwartz Art Collection at the Harvard Business School with Sharon Black. Art collector Gerry Schwartz (Harvard MBA ’70) stated in 1998 that “artistic presence was the only thing missing at the Harvard Business School [HBS] when I went there. I wanted to change that.” A ﬁrm believer that art promotes creative thinking, Schwartz made it his priority to liven up the halls of HBS, which led to the creation of an impressive collection of modern and contemporary art. Join us and discover this hidden gem.

Harvard Treasures is a members-only series that explores the university’s architectural riches and art holdings beyond the Harvard Art Museums.

I kind of like that. Clark was all right, and I thought the girl looked like a mulatto and played the part fairly well. They cut a lot of scenes out of that, too – between Yvonne and Sidney Poitier – that they didn’t like. Not too many. - Raoul Walsh

The film's complex camerawork matches the screenplay's subtle intertwining of voice and desire, fantasy and the dark reality of a retired veteran's embittered solitude and desolation.

Guy de Maupassant short story of a sailor and a prostitute by offering three different tellings of the same tale, each from a different character’s point of view. Similar to their other collaborations, Woman of the Port uses its multiple layers to build meaning cumulatively, offering a fractured composite sense of place and tone of wistful regret, while also cutting a richly textured cross-section across the narrative grain.

Susana de Sousa Dias creates a living requiem from recently excavated photographs of Portuguese political prisoners taken by the Political Police (PIDE) during the Salazar dictatorship of 1926-1974. The hypnotizing sequence of faces – upon the remarkably sharp moments of their capture – flows eerily through an absorbing narrative arrangement, guided by the voices of the surviving prisoners and the very present ambient space around them. The subtle zooms, slow fades and heavy pauses isolate and vibrate the historical and emotional charge of the routine identification photos. Explaining their expressions at the moment of being photographed – often the result of complicated emotional states disguised by the “minimal gestures” of a repressed Portugal – lead to unexpected, poetic, horrific tales of the physical and psychological torture the survivors endured while in prison and the ubiquitous, insidious atmosphere of subjugation and surveillance while “free.”

Sunday, May 26, 2013, 7 – 8:10pm

The first piece in Susana de Sousa Dias’ extensive visual archaeology of the oppressive Portuguese dictatorship simultaneously releases the images’ souls from the constrictions of their original use – war reports, newsreel propaganda, political prisoner records – while underlining the deadly solemnity aching beneath even the most placid or vibrant moments. With minimal, meaningful tracts of silence, slow motion, and the heavy, yet hollow dissonance of the soundtrack, the haunted forms materialize as if just thawing out from a secret past into our present, politically-complex moment. Gracefully disrupting the direction of power with the simplest of means, she draws out the intricate humanity on both sides of the camera.

What Price Glory?

Harvard Film Archive
24 Quincy Street
Monday, May 27, 2013, 7 – 9pm

I took the play home and read critical opinions and made notes, until I thought I had the right angle on how to handle the picture. It was not ‘a war play’; it was anti-war. The action revolved around combat conditions, but he idea projected by the characters was that war is a farce. This is contained in Captain Flagg’s dictum: ‘We are all dirt and we propose to die in order that corps headquarters may be decorated.’ Author Laurence Stallings, himself an ex-Marine who left a leg at Château-Thierry, intended the play as an illustration of how war is actually waged. Ruthlessly, he stripped it of all that ‘world safe for democracy’ slush. When Lieutenant Moore, on the edge of a breakdown from combat strain, comforted a brother officer with a shattered arm, asking, ‘What price glory now?’ I identified with him as though I had been there. - Raoul Walsh

Directed by Raoul Walsh. With Victor McLaglen, Edmund Lowe,
Lily Damita
US 1929, 16mm, b/w, 115 min
Back at Malibu, I prowled the house, tried to read scripts, and behaved like a caged bear. Although I did not know it, I was the victim of creative backlash. A director between pictures can become a lost soul. I was renewing my hatred of humanity when Winnie Sheehan called. He had a new script. …

Once again Sheehan warned me about the perils of censorship. We got into trouble with the Hays office in spite of the warning. El Brendel marched up to McLaglen with a pretty soubrette in tow and sounded off: ‘I brought you the lay of the land.’ He pulled out a map and made McLaglen look at it while he pointed innocently. The august guardians of public morals took a jaundiced view. We pushed the footage by, but it was a close shave. - Raoul Walsh

This hard-bitten noir was the first major American film about murder for hire. Stage director Bretaigne Windust began shooting, but he quickly fell out of favor with the movie’s producers. Walsh finished the film but refused to take credit, reportedly so as not to damage Windust’s Hollywood career.

2013-06-02T20:30:00Z

Harvard Film Archive
24 Quincy Street
Sunday, June 2, 2013, 4:30 – 6:35pm

Before we left for Yuma, Wayne came to me with another husky young man over six feet tall who played on the same football team. ‘Mr. Walsh, can you find a part in your picture for this friend of mine?’ He sounded apologetic, as though he might be asking too much. When I inquired the friend’s name, he answered ‘Ward Bond.’ I hired Ward as a wagon-train driver. He was to drive many more wagons in later years. In helping a pal, Wayne had done picture fans a favor. …

I needed a clincher, something to bring home to viewers how the pioneers actually put their lives on the line during such migrations…. The opportunity I had been waiting for came when a transverse cleft stopped progress. The cut was deep and precipitous and there was a white curl of water in the bottom. In other circumstances, I would have called it a day, but I wanted the train to cross that canyon. …

The last wagon to go down gave the sequence more reality than I had bargained for. About halfway in its swaying descent, a knot must have slipped. The wagon hung lopsided just long enough to heighten the suspense. Then it went crashing to the canyon floor to make a pile of wreckage in the white water.

The Big Trail, after all the worries and doubts, ended fortunately and made money. In spite of weather extremes and frequent changes in location and the bellyaching of the Broadway element, my new leading man had made a fine frontiersman. His acting was instinctive, so that he became whatever or whoever he was playing. Later, under the direction of John Ford, he joined the ranks of movie immortals. There is a lot of pride in the knowledge that I discovered a winner. Not only that. I also found a great American. - Raoul Walsh

I remember when I was doing Gentleman Jim with Ward Bond playing John L. Sullivan. After Flynn defeated him in New Orleans and became the world’s champion, Flynn’s manager threw a big party at the hotel and Ward Bond came and played a magnificent scene where he handed Flynn the World’s Championship belt and there’s some marvelous dialogue between the two of them and finally some tears came to Ward’s eye and he walked out. And when the scene was over, the whole cast, the electricians, the crew and everybody applauded. That was the kind of camaraderie they had. They were all marvelous people. - Raoul Walsh

Symposium on Urbanism, Spirituality, and Well-Being: Future Urbanisms

2013-06-08T13:00:00Z

Sperry Room, Andover Hall, Harvard Divinity School, 45 Francis Avenue
Saturday, June 8, 2013, 9am – 5pm

Event Focus: How can the design of future cities support spiritual, physiological, and ecological well-being?

This day-long event, the third in a series of three symposium meetings, will feature morning and afternoon panel sessions followed by a reception for symposium participants.

Session 1 will feature Tim Beatley on “Biophilic Cities”, Julio Bermudez on inclusive modernism, and Alan Logan on the contribution of natural environments to health. Jack Spengler, director of the Center for Health and the Global Environment at the Harvard School of Public Health, will moderate the discussion.

Session 2 will feature Nimi Wariboko, an expert on the Charismatic City, Tom Barrie on the Ontological Roles of the City, and Nader Ardalan on the Value of the Cosmogonic City. Ahmed Ragab, Richard T. Watson Assistant Professor of Science and Religion at Harvard Divinity School, will moderate the discussion.

Their respective conversations will highlight contemporary global trends and speculate on advances in urban design that support spiritual, physiological, and ecological well-being. Specific attention will be paid to our relationship with natural resources and environments—both ecological and social—that sustain us. Harvey Cox, Hollis Research Professor at Harvard Divinity School, will provide closing remarks prior to a reception for all participants.

Sponsored by the Urbanism, Spirituality, and Well-being Initiative, this spring 2013 symposium series is convening three times (April 11, May 2, and June 8) to allow for in-depth discussion of this broad topic. Each meeting addresses one of three timeframes: past, present, and future.

The program will synthesize perspectives from various fields of design (including architecture, landscape design, and urban planning), religious studies, public health, and other related disciplines to address the ways in which the social and physical plan of cities—including parks and recreation areas—can support a vibrant spiritual life, physical and emotional well-being, and overall wellness in urban residents.

The June 8 meeting on contemporary trends will feature:
• Tim Beatley, Teresa Heinz Professor of Sustainable Communities, University of Virginia
• Julio Bermudez, Associate Professor at The Catholic University of America
• Alan C. Logan, ND, Scientific Board Member, International Society of Nature and Forest Medicine
• Nader Ardalan, Senior Editor, GSU, Harvard Graduate School of Design
• Thomas Barrie, Professor at North Carolina State University School of Design
• Nimi Wariboko, Katherine B. Stuart Professor of Christian Ethics, Andover Newton Theological School

About the Urbanism, Spirituality, and Well-being Initiative:   
The Urbanism, Spirituality, and Well-being Initiative is a multi-year initiative supported by faculty and students from the Harvard Schools of Divinity, Public Health and Design. Our goal is to facilitate discussion and collaborative research that illuminates the contribution of design and planning to collective and individual well-being. In this case, we define well-being via an examination of the ways in which built and natural environments can support a vibrant spiritual life and psychosomatic health in urban residents. We invite you to attend our events this spring and look forward to your participation.

Cultural Perspective and Spiritual Meaning: Shaping Helping Interventions

2013-06-14T18:30:00Z

Massachusetts School of Professional Psychology, 1 Wells Avenue, Newton, MA
Friday, June 14, 2013, 2:30 – 5pm

We are taught universal guidelines for mental health, mental illness, and helping interventions. But these vary by cultural perspective and spiritual meanings. Our society may be considered more a tossed salad than a melting pot. The golden rule is superseded by the platinum rule: Do unto others as they would have you do unto them. It is timely to review the perspectives and meanings of community groups to help prepare us to understand and help appropriately. This makes for more effective mental health promotion and illness intervention. Our panel of speakers addresses important community populations—Irish Catholics, Hispanics, and Muslims—from which we may generalize how mental health resources can respectfully engage and support all groups.
