Give a huge rouse to the countless ’14s who tackled the New York City Marathon in early November. Alesy (Iturrey) Lerner, Carly Emmer, John Bleday, Josh Hall, and Maggie Scanlon were among our classmates who took on the challenge. Dr. Lindsay Walsh was also in attendance as part of a medical team helping those affected by the unusually warm weather.

Renee Lai wrote in from Texas with an update on a museum show that she is running with a collaborator at the Elisabet Ney Museum in Austin: “I worked with fellow artist Rosa Nussbaum to make our show, titled ‘The Bathing of the Sphinx.’ It consists of a video installation that explores the key themes of the exhibition. On the exterior grounds of the museum the main sculptural element welcomes visitors to the show: A double-headed sphinx, the faces cast from me and Rosa Nussbaum, twists back to stare at its own image in the reflecting pond. The work weaves our bodies and our experiences of art, land, and femininity into Elisabet Ney’s personal history. We attempt to understand their own fraught relationships with Texas, femininity, and struggles of being a female artist.” Be sure to check out Renee’s work if you find yourself in Austin!
