I’m having hard time processing the unexpected passing of Udo Kier - he was a true artist, an exceptional human being, a friend , an actor who gave a voice to another exceptional artist I made a film about - R.M.Schindler. Here we are having a late night drink at his fav speakeasy bar in Palm Springs, at the Palm Springs Film Festival, at Rancho Mirage Music People recording studio, so many memories …The last thing he said to me came in an email in September , totally unexpected - the subject was Life. The message was short: “Good luck my friend. Udo” Rest in peace my friend. I salute you. Grateful for all you’ve given us on the screen and in life. 🍷🙏🏻❤️ do_kier @rmsdocumentary@valentina.vision@filmowiec@hubbardharriet@helmutmarkmack

Did you catch the Schindler Space Architect screening with us last month? The movie was “equal parts visually stunning and historically compelling” says @ljhusband and we have to agree.
We loved hearing directly from Director @valentina.vision who was present for a live Q&A session with the audience.
Interested in a screening? Check out where they’ll be at on their IG @rmsdocumentary .
Thank you @jones.studio and the @azarchfoundation for sponsoring the event and to the Taliesin Institute @wrighttaliesin for partnering and hosting with us.

Last Wednesday we cohosted a viewing of the film Schindler Space Architect with the Portland Museum of Art. It was an honor to view this labor of love — 12 years in the making by Valentina Ganeva who joined us for a Q+A sharing personal stories and anecdotes about R.M. Schindler and his iconic structures. It was also a joy to host several contributors to the film, including Xander Berkeley and Debra Spark.
Thank you to all who joined us for this sold-out evening of celebrating the creative process honoring dedication to one’s craft.

@tsoarch , in partnership with the Taliesin Institute / @wrighttaliesin is excited to share a special film screening of the @rmsdocumentary Schindler Space Architect followed by a Q&A session with Director, @valentina.vision .
The first documentary ever made, exploring the visionary genius of Rudolph Schindler, the architect who redefined modern living by blending innovative design with the natural world, narrated by Meryl Streep and featuring architect Frank Gehry. The film affirms the singular genius of one man, and the eternal challenge every artist faces to stay true to their vision in an effort to leave a lasting impact.
