Opening Thursday, September 26th, from 6PM - 7PM
Jonathan Rosenbaum will discuss In Dreams Begin Responsibilities: A Jonathan Rosenbaum Reader. He will be joined in conversation by Ignatiy Vishnevetsky. A Q&A and signing will follow the discussion.
About the Book:
A culmination of nearly six decades of writing from the mind of iconoclastic film, literary, and music critic Jonathan Rosenbaum.
Looking back at six decades of his writing, where many flights of fancy and fantasy prove to suggest certain duties as well as privileges, Jonathan Rosenbaum has teased out three threads: the film criticism he is mainly known for (especially during his 20-year stint at the Chicago Reader), the literary criticism he has also been publishing over the past half-century, and the jazz criticism he has been writing during the same period.
About the Author: The former film critic of the Chicago Reader, he has authored or coauthored over a dozen previous books and has taught at the University of Chicago, three branches of the University of California, the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and Bela Tarr’s FilmFactory in Sarajevo.
About the Interlocutor: Ignatiy Vishnevetsky is a film critic, essayist, and columnist. He has worked as a staff film critic for The A.V. Club and written for Mubi.com and the Chicago Reader.
