Chocolate can help us feel warm, comforted and loved. For Valentines Day, we hear from local chocolatiers Rachel Kellner and Mark Libertini, owners of Aigner Chocolates, which has served up confections in Forest Hills, Queens, since 1930.
For over fifty years, artist Senga Nengudi has been creating with sculpture and performance using everyday materials. Born in Chicago and raised in Los Angeles, she studied in Japan and eventually settled in New York City in the 70s, where she immersed herself in a rich community of artists, including Just Above Midtown. Although she's now retired, Nengudi also dedicated her life to arts education, serving as an educator at the University of Colorado Colorado Springs in the Visual Arts and Performing Arts Department. Starting on Friday, Dia Beacon in Beacon, New York, is opening a a longterm exhibition dedicated to Nengudi's wide ranging artistic practice. Nengudi and curator Matilde Guidelli-Guidi join us to preview the exhibition.
