The Restless Hungarian
Multi-Media Presentation by Tom Weidlinger
Thursday November 14, 2019
7-9pm
Cost:
$5 JCC Members / $7 Public
Join us for an evening devoted to a true story set against the history of the Hungarian Jewish Diaspora, the rise of Modernism, and the Cold War. The program will include a multi-media presentation by Tom Weidlinger, audience Q&A, and a book signing.
The story of the "Restless Hungarian" belongs to the author's father, Paul Weidlinger, one of the most important structural engineers of the 20th century. As a young architect, Paul broke ranks with the greatest modernists, with his radical idea of the "Joy of Space." As an engineer, he created the strength behind the beauty in skyscrapers, churches, museums, embassies, and the monumental sculptures of Picasso, Noguchi and Dubuffet.
About the Author
Tom Weidlinger is a writer and filmmaker who has been writing, directing and producing documentaries for 35 years. He began work on the manuscript and documentary, The Restless Hungarian, in late 2013.
