Richard Lippold & Orpheus and Apollo

In 2014, Lincoln Center “temporarily” de-installed artist Richard Lippold’s Orpheus and Apollo, a site-specific artwork that hung from the lobby ceiling of the New York Philharmonic Hall at Lincoln Center.

In 2019, Lincoln Center announced plans to (again) make extensive changes to the hall. The upcoming renovations will not include the reintroduction of the Lippold installation. Deeply concerned, LANDMARK WEST! applied to the Preservation League of New York State’s Seven to Save program, and the Lippold-less lobby was chosen as a 2020-2021 site.

JOIN THIS FREE & EXPERT-PACKED PRESENTATION by leading architects/artists/preservationists/historians to learn more about the artist, Richard Lippold, his impressive work and its intended site. We’ve gathered some of the most recognized experts in their fields, including panelists who knew and worked with Richard Lippold, who have studied his work at large, and who believe in the deep symbiosis that exists between artists and architects of site-specific installations.
