The documentary Where We Grow Older (CCA, 2023, 30 minutes) looks at how the growing aging population is reshaping architectural and social constructs and questions the role of urban design and politics in facing these challenges.

Pairing iconic films and drawings by Matta-Clark with video, drawings, and an installation by contemporary multidisciplinary artist Pope.L, this exhibition is proudly, penetratingly loud—visually, aurally, and conceptually.

In Impossible Failures, director Ebony L. Haynes focuses on works by Gordon Matta-Clark and Pope.L that explore the social conditions of space and how creative experimentation might help us to dream of a world that can hold the tension inherent in such social relationships.
