Memorial For Gordon Fitch
This is a memorial to bring together people who were touched by Gordon Fitch.
Gordon passed away on May 28, 2025, leaving behind several varied communities of friends and family. He had many interests and this will be a chance for those communities to meet and share memories.
The memorial will have two parts. First, we will gather at Anthology Film Archives (32 Second Ave, at East 2nd Street) from 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. We'll begin in the lobby area for coffee/tea. Images of Gordon's art and life will show. Then we'll move into the theater, where Inoshi, a friend and fellow Tai Chi practitioner of Gordon's, will say a few spiritual words. You'll also have a chance to share your thoughts and memories of Gordon, if you would like to.
Following the time at Anthology, we will walk, levitate, uber, bus, etc. to Minerva's Drawing Studio, a.ka. Spring Studio, to view a showing of Gordon's life drawings. Spring Studio is at 91 Canal St, New York NY 10002, 4th Floor. (https://www.springstudiosoho.com). That's about a mile from Anthology Film Archive.
If you would like to speak at Anthology Film Archive, please let us know at: blakegfitch1.gmail.com . If you aren't able to attend in person but would like to say a few words about Gordon, we encourage you to make a short video of yourself and upload it to this website: https://warpbin.com/drive/9aeDkwPJCn
We encourage everyone, whether you'll be attending in person or not, to upload your favorite photos of Gordon to: https://warpbin.com/drive/9aeDkwPJCn
Please feel free to bring other people, either by using the "Invite a Friend" feature on the event page or simply letting us know how many people you'll be bringing.
We hope you can join for some or all of the memorial, meet folks from other corners of Gordon's life and share your memories.
We'd appreciate it if you could let us know if you'll be attending and whether you'd like to speak, as well as upload your photos and videos, by September 3, 2025.
