Join SVMoA and Merlin's Magic Lantern for a screening of Schindler Space Architect, directed by Valentina Ganeva. The film explores the extraordinary vision of the Austrian-born architect, Rudolph M. Schindler, whose radical ideas helped redefine modern architecture in Southern California. Rejecting convention, Schindler developed an innovative approach to space, light, materials, and the relationship between architecture and the natural world—ideas that continue to influence architects today. Featuring insights from renowned architects Frank Gehry, Thom Mayne, Steven Holl, and Mark Mack, and narrated by Meryl Streep, this engaging documentary offers a fresh look at a visionary whose work transformed not only the way we build, but the way we experience the spaces around us.
Architect Mark Mack, who is featured in the film, will join us to introduce the screening and participate in a post-film Q&A, offering a unique opportunity to hear firsthand perspectives on Schindler’s enduring influence.
Film Length: 1 hour 33 minutes.
SVMoA’s ART ON FILM film series takes place at Merlin's Magic Lantern in Ketchum on the first Wednesday of every month at 5pm.
