SUMMARY:WTO/99 at Speed Cinema
DESCRIPTION:WTO/99\nDirected by Ian Bell \nSunday\, May 3\, 1 pm | BUY TICKETS \n$12 | $8 Speed members \n“Watching WTO/99 is like peering into a portal to the future.”—Alissa Wilkinson\, New York Times \nFrom November 30 to December 3 1999\, tens of thousands of people occupied the streets of downtown Seattle to make known their concerns about the existence of the World Trade Organization and its impacts on the environment\, human rights\, and labor in the largest protests against economic globalization the U.S. has ever seen. \nThe protests brought together people from divergent sections of society—anarchists\, environmentalists\, labor unions\, consumer protection advocates\, pro-democracy groups\, and even religious organizations. These protestors gathered in direct action hoping to dissuade world leadership from continued support of the WTO and strived to focus the public’s attention to the kind of future the WTO would bring forth. \nBuilding from a thousand-hour archive\, which includes more than 400 hours of never-before-seen footage\, WTO/99 reanimates the ideological conflicts that drew thousands to the streets of Seattle in hopes for a better future. The film is an immersive visual artifact of a week that brought 40\,000 people together to warn of environmental collapse\, the vanishing middle class\, and what the full inclusion of China in the World Trade Organization would mean for our collective future. The protesters—seen as a rabble-rousing nuisance at the time\, yet appearing prophetic today—were met with extreme violence by a militarized police force\, an all-too-fitting way to usher in a new century; one that is now defined by the U.S. failure to address climate change and increasing state aggression. 2025\, U.S.\, DCP\, 100 minutes. Recommended for 15+

SUMMARY:Hello Dankness at Speed Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Hello Dankness\nDirected by Soda Jerk \nSunday\, May 3\, 3:30 pm | BUY TICKETS \n$12 | $8 Speed members \n“Hello Dankness belongs to a venerable underground-film tradition of treating refracted entertainment as a mirror for society.”—Ben Kenigsberg\, New York Times \nHello Dankness is a political fable that bears witness to the psychotropic spectacle of American politics from 2016 to 2021\, and the mythologies and lore that took root around it. Taking form as a suburban stoner musical\, the film follows a neighborhood through these years as consensus reality disintegrates into conspiracy and other contagions. What unfolds is a rogue retelling of history in which hotdogs debate the culture wars\, trashcans preach QAnon\, zombies rally for revolution\, and real events are refashioned as Broadway bangers from Cats\, Les Miserables\, Annie\, and The Phantom of the Opera. \nThere are songs and dancing\, moments of menace and melancholy\, shitposting and deep sincerity. Created with Soda Jerk’s signature methodology\, Hello Dankness is entirely composed of sampled media. Utilizing extensive rotoscoping and digital VFX\, the feature length narrative has been grafted together from almost one thousand film\, television and audio sources. \nBegun in 2016 and labored on throughout the Covid-19 pandemic\, Hello Dankness is a record of the time\, written from the time. The Hollywood Reporter announced Hello Dankness as ”the most original and bizarrely elevating movie of the 2023 Berlin International Film Festival.” \nThe cast of characters include Tom Hanks\, Annette Bening\, Bruce Dern\, Ice Cube\, Wayne and Garth\, Maya and Ana\, Rue and Jules\, Seth Rogen and Reyn Doi. American politicians play themselves\, with Jesse Eisenberg in the role of Mark Zuckerberg\, and The Phantom of the Opera as Vladimir Putin. 2022\, Australia\, DCP\, 70 minutes. Recommended for 16+.

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
