Art in Danger, Artists at Risk

NYU Skirball will join with the Public Theater, New York Theatre Workshop, PEN America, and CUNY’s Segal Center to present Art in Danger, Artists at Risk, a free panel discussion on political censorship of the arts at 1 pm. The panel will be followed by a marathon reading of Kafka’s seminal novel The Trial at 3pm, featuring authors Salman Rushdie and Zadie Smith; actors Kathleen Chalfant, Scott Shepherd, and Jim Fletcher; and philosopher Kwame Anthony Appiah, editor of the New York Times‘ “The Ethicist” column.
