SUMMARY:American Dream at Speed Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Barbara Kopple X 2/New 4K Restoration\nAmerican Dream\nDirected by Barbara Kopple \nSaturday\, May 9\, 3 pm | BUY TICKETS\n$12 | $8 Speed members \n“A bracing hybrid\, a documentary and a lamentation for those who create the country’s wealth at the cost of their own dignity.” —The Washington Post \nWinner of the 1991 Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature\, Barbara Kopple’s American Dream unflinchingly details the explosive 1985–86 labor strike against Hormel Foods in Austin\, Minnesota\, a city ripped apart in the tumult. Fed up with dangerous plant conditions and drastic wage cuts\, Austin’s Local P-9 went against the advice of the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union and\, with the help of labor activist Ray Rogers’s campaign to damage the meatpacking giant’s public reputation\, conducted a nearly yearlong walkout. But as the strike dragged on\, some workers found themselves desperate to make ends meet and ready to cross the picket line\, dividing a community already betrayed by a once progressive company and roiled by blockades\, riots\, and the intervention of the National Guard. Following up her landmark documentary Harlan County USA with another engrossing report from the trenches of working-class America\, Kopple poignantly captures the human and political costs of one of the most significant setbacks to organized labor amid the unchecked corporatism of the Reaganomics era. 1990\, U.S.\, DCP\, 98 minutes. Rated PG-13. \nSupervised and approved by director Barbara Kopple\, this 4K digital restoration was undertaken by Janus Films and the Criterion Collection from a scan of the 16 mm internegative. The original monaural soundtrack was remastered from the 35 mm DME magnetic track.

SUMMARY:Kontinental ‘25 at Speed Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Kontinental ‘25\nDirected by Radu Jude \nSaturday\, May 9\, 6 pm | BUY TICKETS \n$12 | $8 Speed members \n“A smart\, scathing masterwork about our modern madness.” —Nick Schager\, The Daily Beast \nCelebrated writer/director Radu Jude (Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World) is back with a sharp critique of capitalism\, housing\, labor\, and morality with his typical outrageous and irreverent comedic approach. Shot on an iPhone over the course of 10 days\, he cements his position as one of the most nimble and talented contemporary film talents. \nWhen Orsolya oversees the eviction of a local elderly man in Cluj\, Transylvania\, the unintended consequences come to shatter her and her understanding of her place in society. Spiraling into an existential crisis\, she traverses the city\, meeting with various people in her life — her husband\, an old friend\, her former student\, a priest — to consider and reconcile her place in an increasingly maddening modern world in award-winning filmmaker Radu Jude’s latest furious and hysterical moral parable. \nWinner of the Silver Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival. 2025\, Romania\, DCP\, in Romanian with English subtitles\, 109 minutes. Recommended for 16+.

SUMMARY:Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence at Speed Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Science on Screen®\nGhost in the Shell 2: Innocence\nDirected by Mamoru Oshii \nThursday\, May 14\, 6 pm CINEMA+ | BUY TICKETS\n$12 | $8 Speed members \n“Mamoru Oshii’s 2004 follow-up to his 1995 anime noir is that rare sequel that surpasses the original.” —Andrea Gronvall\, Chicago Reader \nIn the year 2032\, the line between humans and machines has been blurred almost beyond distinction. A string of murders perpetrated by a prototype android model has drawn the attention of Public Security Section 9\, a unit specializing in counter cyber-terrorism. With none of the victims’ families pressing charges\, suspicions arise regarding the nature of the androids and their production company. In the course of the investigation\, the almost entirely cyber-bodied agent Batou\, and his still human partner Togusa embark on a journey through a technological dystopia\, taking on ferocious Yakuza thugs\, devious hackers\, government bureaucrats\, and corporate criminals to uncover the shocking truth behind the crime. \nAcclaimed director Mamoru Oshii pushes further into the world and concepts first developed in his groundbreaking film Ghost in the Shell\, considered one of the most important and iconic anime films ever made. With its thought-provoking speculations on artificial intelligence\, which have only become more relevant in our present world\, Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence returns to cinemas in a lustrous new 4K restoration. 2004\, Japan\, DCP\, in Japanese with English subtitles\, 100 minutes. Rated PG-13. \nCINEMA+ with a post-screening discussion by Guy Dove\, Professor of Philosophy at UofL. \nAn initiative of the COOLIDGE CORNER THEATRE\, with major support from the ALFRED P. SLOAN FOUNDATION.

SUMMARY:Abstraction Reconsidered: Terms\, Histories\, and the Women who Shaped Them
DESCRIPTION:Join Chris Reitz\, Director of the Hite Institute of Art and Design at the University of Louisville\, for an engaging lecture connected to the exhibition Abstract Expressionists: The Women (on view May 16–August 30). \nThis session will explore what “abstraction” means in art\, how modern artists and critics invented the concept\, and how historians are reconsidering it today. You’ll learn about the origins of modern abstract painting\, about its redeployment in postwar Abstract Expressionism\, and about the women who were central to both.\nThrough guided discussion and close looking\, participants will develop their own understanding of abstraction\, one that is thoughtful\, flexible\, and open to different perspectives. Students\, artists\, and anyone curious about art are encouraged to attend. After the seminar\, participants are invited to visit the exhibition to continue the experience. \nChris Reitz is Director of the Hite Institute of Art and Design and Associate Professor of Critical and Curatorial Studies at the University of Louisville. He is the author of the book Martin Kippenberger: Everything is Everywhere. \nThis lecture session is free and open to the public. \nJoan MitchellWhen They Were Gone\, 1977Oil on canvas\, 94 x 71 in.© Estate of Joan Mitchell.Courtesy of the Levett Collection and FAMMPhoto: Fraser Marr.\n\n

SUMMARY:May Adult Workshop - Adult Abstract Painting Workshop
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER\n\nAbstract Expressionists: The Women – Adult Abstract Painting Workshop\nFacilitated by Sara Noori\nStep into the vibrant\, expressive world of Abstract Expressionists: The Women. Inspired by artists such as Helen Frankenthaler\, Joan Mitchell\, Vivian Springford\, Grace Hartigan\, and Lee Krasner\, this workshop invites you to explore painting as a space for movement\, emotion\, and discovery.\nEngage in a process-based approach to painting that emphasizes exploration over outcome. Through guided exercises and technical experimentation with layering\, movement\, and mark-making\, you will be invited to experiment with building a visual language rooted in intuition and creative risk-taking.\nA mix of visual and creative prompts will guide the process and spark inspiration\, offering accessible ways to generate ideas and move into image-making. We will also explore how to “read” abstract paintings\, not by figuring them out\, but through personal observation and interpretation.\nNo prior experience is necessary. Enjoy a supportive\, open-ended workshop to learn\, explore\, reflect\, and create!\n____\nArtist Bio \nSara Noori \nSara Noori is an artist and educator whose work explores identity\, collaboration\, and the body\, both individual and collective\, as a host for culture\, memory\, and creative survival. They have organized and facilitated public programs including Family Day at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago; led public and private art classes at elementary\, middle\, and high schools throughout the Chicago area; taught art at the Old Town School of Folk Music in Chicago; and collaborated with the Community Belonging program at the Speed Art Museum in Louisville\, KY. In 2023\, Noori was invited to co-create a site-specific mural titled Homecoming for Amy Sherald’s Portrait of Breonna Taylor: In the Garden at the Speed Art Museum. As an arts educator they have presented as part of the 2026 Leonardo/ISAST LASER Talks in Louisville\, and worked with the Backside Learning Center at Churchill Downs\, Dreams With Wings\, First Hour Grief\, Fund for the Arts\, Frazier History Museum\, and in school classrooms supporting students\, participants\, and communities through material exploration\, collaborative making\, and confidence-building practices. Across institutions and community spaces\, their work prioritizes care\, adaptability\, and the cultivation of environments where creative growth can take root. \nArtwork credit \n“ It’s my house\, and I live here.”\nStretcher bars\, plastic\, glitter\, acrylic paints\, plastisol\, tissue paper\, synthetic hair\, screen printed\, and hand-detailed Persian rug reproduction\n2017–2022
