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. We are encouraging registration for this event. \nREGISTER\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:Burst City at Speed Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Essential Cinema\nBurst City\nDirected by Gakuryū Ishii \nSaturday\, May 16\, 6 pm | BUY TICKETS \n“Burst City resolutely puts the punk into the Japanese cyberpunk movement that emerged in the early 1980s.” —Budd Wilkins\, Slant \nFans of Tetsuo: The Iron Man take note! An early landmark in cyberpunk cinema\, Burst City is an experimental\, dystopian musical from underground filmmaker Gakuryū (formerly Sogo) Ishii that ignites a Molotov cocktail of Mad Max-style carnage and real-life Japanese punk bands. In a derelict industrial wasteland on the outskirts of Tokyo\, two rival bands and their unruly mobs of fans gather for a Battle of the Bands-style protest against a nuclear power plant\, bringing them face-to-face with the yakuza industrialists that want to erase their turf. 1982\, Japan\, DCP\, in Japanese with English subtitles\, 115 minutes.

SUMMARY:Tetsuo: The Iron Man at Speed Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Essential Cinema/New Restoration\nTetsuo: The Iron Man\nDirected by Shinya Tsukamoto \nSaturday\, May 16\, 3 pm | BUY TICKETS \n$12 | $8 Speed members \n“Metallic mayhem and graphic depravity fly thick and fast in the mind-melting 30-year-old Japanese body-horror benchmark.” —Lou Thomas\, BFI \nVirtually absent from theater screens since the 1990s\, this underground classic from Japan is now available in a brand new restoration! Tetsuo: The Iron Man is filmmaker Shinya Tsukamoto’s unhinged hot take on humankind’s ongoing battle with technology; literally\, as a man mutates into a walking\, clanking man-machine that terrorizes himself and everyone around him. Warping elements of early Cronenberg\, Lynch\, and Raimi into a deliriously-paced cyberpunk cocktail\, Tetsuo is a body horror manifesto that’s fueled by techno-erotic adrenaline and wrought iron perversion. Unmissable. 1989\, Japan\, DCP\, in Japanese with English subtitles\, 67 minutes.

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.
