Elena Brower leads yoga session at Magazzino Italian Art
On a rainy day, Ascend Yoga Studio organized a collaboration for an afternoon of yoga, art, and self-reflection with renowned yogi, teacher, and writer Elena Brower at Magazzino Italian Art in Cold Spring, New York. Ticket proceeds benefited RxArt, a nonprofit that transforms healthcare facilities into engaging environments with contemporary artists to aid children's healing. The venue houses the Olnick Spanu collection of 400 postwar Italian artworks, with a focus on Arte Povera and Murano glass. Participants practiced among works by Giovanni Anselmo, Alighiero Boetti, and others, guided by Brower using her book Practice You. The Olnick Spanu Foundation previously supported Keith Haring's mural at Harlem Hospital.
