Fall ushers in a fresh lineup of art exhibitions and programs around town including one at a cultural center in Queens. NY1's Shazia Khan filed the following report.

A new cultural curriculum is now in session at P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center, MoMA's affiliate, housed inside a former school building in Long Island City. The fall lineup is diverse, and includes a large scale exhibition called "1969."

"It was a very tumultuous period in history a lot of revolt and socio, political issues came to the fore, but it was also an extremely rich period of artistic activity and I think in this exhibition you can see both of those trends coming forward," said PS 1 Contemporary Art Center Curator Michelle Elligott.

"1969" draws from every curatorial department at MoMA -- from sculpture to photography. Among the works is Martha Rosler's print of "cleaning the drapes." A handful of emerging artists were also commissioned to create new works responding to that period in time.

As part of the exhibit, curators recreated a MoMA gallery from 1969 -- Ron Davis' "Ring" is among the five works on display.

"We constructed a white cube inside the larger space and you really feel like you're in the minimalist galleries," Elligott said.

From 1969 to 2009, P.S. 1 curatorial assistants Tim Goossens and Kate McNamara organized "Between Spaces," featuring 11 artists who give new meaning to everyday objects like window blinds.

"You are encountering these things that you encounter daily but just tuned around, you'd see an installation by Alex Da Corte which is all Soda poured onto the floor which almost looks like stained glass," McNamara said.

Around the bend, P.S. 1 Curatorial Advisor Phong Bui curated Robert Bergman: Selected Portraits.

"I'm very excited for Bergman to have this chance. He just turned 65 and this is his first one man show," Bui said.

The exhibition displays a cross section of Americans Bergman chanced upon in the 1980s and 1990s on his travels through the country. He asked random people on the streets if he could take their picture with his 35mm camera.

"With Bergman's instant of those portraits for me, have a lot to do with the moment when everything has been stripped away when what remains is this kind of vulnerability," Bui said.

Bergman snapped all the pictures in natural light. The works are untitled, forcing the viewer to engage with the portrait to learn more about the person and perhaps themselves.
