More DescriptionJonas Mekas, Open Archives is a collection of shared artifacts from the Mekas vault compiled by the Monira Foundation. From tangible artifacts like handknit scarves and keychains to evocative photographs of Mekas's early years in New York, this exhibition transcends the physical and delves into poetry, manifestos, sketches, and newspaper clippings. Amidst this eclectic array, a memorable moment involves a mysterious coconut gifted to Mekas from "Jungle Larry's Safari at Caribbean Gardens" in Naples, Florida. Jonas Mekas, Open Archive is a celebration of the universal language of cinema, connecting us across time and place, and a testament to the enduring power of art to inspire and unite, even in the darkest of times.
