SUMMARY:WQRT Rhinestone Country Presents-Smokey & The Bandit
DESCRIPTION:Burt Reynolds\, Sally Field and Jackie Gleason are in high gear and hot water after a cross-country road challenge results in one of the wildest series of car chases and crashes ever filmed! The Bandit (Burt Reynolds)\, a maverick racecar driver\, makes an 80\,000-dollar bet that he can transport a shipment of Coors beer from Texarkana\, TX\, to Atlanta within 28 hours. It’s important to note that in 1977\, it was illegal to sell the Coors brand east of the Mississippi River without a permit; if we don’t note that\, then the plot won’t make sense at times. Already in danger of arrest from redneck lawmen like Buford T. Justice\, Bandit furthers his chances at a stiff jail term when he offers a ride to Carrie\, who hopes to escape her unwanted wedding to Justice’s boy.” ~ Hal Erickson\, Rovi \nPresented by Upland Brewing Company

SUMMARY:Kader Attia- The Body’s Legacies (Part 1: The Objects)
DESCRIPTION:Attia’s recent film The Body’s Legacies (Part 1: The Objects) is an extensive account of testimonies by academics\, scholars\, collectors\, and museum directors from Canada\, the US\, Ivory Coast\, and many other locations\, relating the histories behind bodies and artifacts from the world over. \nThis screening is part of the Bauhaus Imaginista: Collected Research exhibition. \nProject partners:\nGoethe-Institut\, Bauhaus Kooperation\, Haus der Kulturen der Welt. \nFunded by:\nDie Beauftragte der Bundesregierung für Kultur und Medien\, Auswärtiges Amt\, Kulturstiftung des Bundes. \nOn the occasion of 100 Jahre bauhaus (100 Years of Bauhaus). \nKader Attia (b. 1970\, France)\, grew up in Paris and in Algeria. Preceding his studies at the École Supérieure des Arts Appliqués Duperré and the École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Paris\, and at Escola Massana\, Centre d’Art i Disseny in Barcelona\, he spent several years in Congo and in South America. \nThe experience with these different cultures\, the histories of which over centuries have been characterised by rich trading traditions\, colonialism and multi-ethnic societies\, has fostered Kader Attia’s intercultural and interdisciplinary approach of research. For many years\, he has been exploring the perspective that societies have on their history\, especially as regards experiences of deprivation and suppression\, violence and loss\, and how this affects the evolving of nations and individuals — each of them being connected to collective memory. \nHis socio-cultural research has led Kader Attia to the notion of Repair\, a concept he has been developing philosophically in his writings and symbolically in his oeuvre as a visual artist. With the principle of Repair being a constant in nature — thus also in humanity —\, any system\, social institution or cultural tradition can be considered as an infinite process of Repair\, which is closely linked to loss and wounds\, to recuperation and re-appropriation. Repair reaches far beyond the subject and connects the individual to gender\, philosophy\, science\, and architecture\, and also involves it in evolutionary processes in nature\, culture\, myth and history. \nIn 2016\, Kader Attia founded La Colonie\, a space in Paris to share ideas and to provide an agora for vivid discussion. Focussing on decolonialisation not only of peoples but also of knowledge\, attitudes and practices\, it aspires to de-compartmentalise knowledge by a trans-cultural\, trans-disciplinary and trans-generational approach. Driven by the urgency of social and cultural reparations\, it aims to reunite which has been shattered\, or drift apart. \nKader Attia’s work has been shown in  group shows and biennials such as the 12thShanghai Biennial; the 12th Gwangju Biennial; the 12th Manifesta\, Palermo; the 57th Venice Biennial; dOCUMENTA(13) in Kassel; Met Breuer\, New York; Kunsthalle Wien; MoMA\, New York; Tate Modern\, London; Centre Pompidou\, Paris; or The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum\, New York — just to name a few. Notable solo exhibitions include “The Museum of Emotion”\, The Hayward Gallery\, London; “Scars Remind Us that Our Past is Real”\, Fundacio Joan Miro\, Barcelona; “Roots also grow in concrete”\, MacVal in Vitry-sur-Seine; „The Field of Emotion“\, The Power Plant\, Toronto; Museum of Contemporary Art\, Sydney; “Repairing the Invisible”\, SMAK\, Ghent; Museum of Contemporary Art\, Sydney; “Sacrifice and Harmony”\, Museum für Moderne Kunst\, Frankfurt; “The Injuries are Here”\, Musée Cantonal des Beaux Arts de Lausanne; “Contre Nature”\, Beirut Art Center; “Continuum of Repair: The Light of Jacob’s Ladder”\, Whitechapel Gallery\, London; and KW Institute for Contemporary Art\, Berlin. \nIn 2016\, Kader Attia was awarded with the Marcel Duchamp Prize\, followed by the Prize of the Miró Foundation\, Barcelona\, and the Yanghyun Art Prize\, Seoul\, in 2017.

SUMMARY:WQRT Rhinestone Country Film Series-True Stories
DESCRIPTION:Music icon David Byrne was inspired by tabloid headlines to make his sole foray into feature-film directing\, an ode to the extraordinariness of ordinary American life and a distillation of what was in his own idiosyncratic mind. The Talking Heads front man plays a visitor to Virgil\, Texas\, who introduces us to the citizens of the town during preparations for its Celebration of Specialness. As shot by cinematographer Ed Lachman\, Texas becomes a hyperrealistic late-capitalist landscape of endless vistas\, shopping malls\, and prefab metal buildings. In True Stories\, Byrne uses his songs to stitch together pop iconography\, voodoo rituals\, and a singular variety show—all in the service of uncovering the rich mysteries that lurk under the surface of everyday experience. \nPresented by Upland Brewing Company.

SUMMARY:Red Line Movie Night-My Neighbor Totoro
DESCRIPTION:The Red Line is coming to South Indianapolis and Garfield Park. And to help us get into the mindset of celebrating and thinking about transit we’ll show “My Neighbor Totoro” in the parking lot of Safeway\, transit related arts activities and a short film of stuntman Evel Knievel jumping 14 buses on his red\, white and blue motorcycle preceding the movie. Safeway will be open so you can grab dinner at the cafe to enjoy with the movie. \nFollow the adventures of Satsuki and her four-year-old sister Mei when they move into a new home in the countryside. To their delight\, they discover that their new neighbor is Totoro\, a mysterious forest spirit who can only be seen by children. Totoro introduces them to extradordinary characters — including a cat that doubles as a bus! — and takes them on an incredible journey.  \nThere will be around 50 chairs that are free to use but we also recommend you bring your own if you are arriving later. \nSpecial thanks to Safeway\, The Arts Council of Indianapolis\, and Transit Drives Indy\, and Public House Cinema for making this event possible. Learn about other Ready for The Red Line projects here.

SUMMARY:Belladonna of Sadness
DESCRIPTION:One of the great lost masterpieces of Japanese animation\, never before officially released in the U.S.\, BELLADONNA OF SADNESS is a mad\, swirling\, psychedelic light-show of medieval tarot-card imagery with horned demons\, haunted forests and La Belle Dame Sans Merci with J.R.R. Tolkien influences. \nWe will be discussing this film\, the role witchcraft and superstition have played in gender roles throughout history\, all in relation to our exhibit Larissa Hammond: the/ a mind the b mind. \nThe last film in the Animerama trilogy produced by the godfather of Japanese anime & manga\, Osamu Tezuka and directed by his longtime collaborator Eiichi Yamamoto (ASTRO BOY and KIMBA THE WHITE LION)\, BELLADONNA unfolds as a series of spectacular still watercolor paintings that bleed and twist together. A young woman\, Jeanne (voiced by Aiko Nagayama) is assaulted by the local lord on her wedding night. To take revenge\, she makes a pact with the Devil himself (voiced by Tatsuya Nakadai\, from Akira Kurosawa’s RAN) who appears as a sprite and transforms her into a black-robed vision of madness and desire. \nExtremely transgressive\, BELLADONNA is fueled by a mind-blowing Japanese psych rock soundtrack by noted avant-garde jazz composer Masahiko Satoh. The film has been newly restored by Cinelicious Pics using the original 35 mm camera negative and sound elements and including over 8 minutes of surreal footage cut from the negative. On par with Rene Laloux’s FANTASTIC PLANET and Ralph Bakshi’s WIZARDS as an LSD-stoked 1970s head trip\, BELLADONNA marks a major rediscovery for animation fans. If Led Zeppelin had a favorite film\, this would be it. In other words\, Stairway to Hell.

SUMMARY:INOCENTE Documentary Screening
DESCRIPTION:Join us for dinner and a screening of the Oscar-award-winning documentary Inocente followed by a Q & A with the artist. You can learn more about the documentary at inocentedoc.com. \nMade possible by the Central Indiana Alliance Against Hate and The Clowes Fund Inc\, in partnership with Heartland Film\, who screened the film in 2016\,CHIP Indianapolis and the Immigrant Welcome Center. \nAbout the artist:\nInocente is a San Diego artist and activist. As a young child Inocente and her family immigrated to the US from Mexico. After her father’s arrest and deportation for domestic violence\, most of Inocente’s childhood was spent moving from one homeless shelter to the next. When she was 12 years old Inocente discovered the power of art\, and since then she has been able to use the arts as a vehicle to rise above many great life challenges. Despite her sometimes bleak surroundings\, her brightly colored art represents a world of survival\, love and hope. Her story is the subject of the Oscar-winning film “INOCENTE”\, which depicts her life and art at age 15. Inocente now supports herself as a professional artist and motivational speaker\, while also working as an after-school art teacher. For more information on Inocente please visit originalinocenteart.com.\nChildren are very welcome to attend all programming over the course of the weekend. \nSay you’re coming on Facbeook: https://www.facebook.com/events/120965935139152/

SUMMARY:The Banana Man-Mike Kelley
DESCRIPTION:Kelley’s 28-minute video project pieced together a character study of the Banana Man\, a character from the children’s television show “Captain Kangaroo.” Having never watched the Banana Man himself\, Kelley enlisted his childhood friends to recount their memories of him\, memories which were weaved together into a fragmented narrative. \nWrites Kelley: “This is my only truly solo video project. The tape is an exploration of character and was done in direct reaction to my performance work at the time\, which was characterless. Video seemed a good way\, by virtue of it not operating in ‘real’ time\, of dealing with character and psychological motivation. ‘The Banana Man’ was a minor figure on a children’s television show I watched in my youth. I\, myself\, never saw this performer. Everything I know about him was told to me by my friends. The Banana Man is an attempt at constructing the psychology of the character — problematized by the fact that the character is already a fictional one\, and by the fact that none of my observations were direct ones.” \n1983\, 28:15 min\, color\, sound\n\nDiscussion to follow screening.

SUMMARY:Day Is Done--Mike Kelley--Screening/Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Day Is Done is a carnivalesque opus\, a genre-smashing epic in which vampires\, dancing Goths\, hillbillies\, mimes and demons come together in a kind of subversive musical theater/variety revue by artist Mike Kelley. Running over two-and-a-half hours\, this riotous theatrical spectacle unfolds as a series of episodes that form a loose\, fractured narrative. The video comprises parts 2 through 32 of Kelley’s multi-faceted project Extracurricular Activity Projective Reconstructions\, in which trauma\, abuse and repressed memory are refracted through personal and mass-cultural experience. The source material is a series of high school yearbook photographs of “extracurricular activities\,” specifically those that represent what Kelley has termed “socially accepted rituals of deviance.” Kelley then stages video narratives around these found images.\nIn Day Is Done\, these restagings take the form of “folk entertainments” that Kelley memorably subverts. Featuring characters such as Motivational Vampire\, Morose Ghoul and Devil/Barber\, much of the action—antic song-and-dance numbers and dramatic scenes\, with Satan as emcee—takes place in a generic school gymnasium and a wooded landscape.\nWrites Kelley: “For this project\, I limited myself to specific iconographic motifs taken from the following files: Religious Performances\, Thugs\, Dance\, Hick and Hillbilly\, Halloween and Goth\, Satanic\, Mimes\, and Equestrian Events. Many of the source photographs are of people in costume singing or dancing\, so the resulting tapes are generally music videos. In fact\, I consider Day Is Done to be a kind of fractured feature-length musical…. The experience of viewing it is somewhat akin to channel-surfing on television.”\nThe video reconstructions were originally seen within an ambitious\, sprawling exhibition of video/sculpture installations\, photographs\, sets\, props and drawings at the Gagosian Gallery in New York in 2005; the videos were incorporated into 25 sculptural viewing stations. Writes Kelley\, “My intention was to create a kind of spatialized filmic montage: a feature-length film made up of multiple simultaneous and sequential scenes playing in architectural space.” \nWe will discuss Kelley’s techniques for creating psychic distortions and the perceived relationship between the person of the artist and the artistic persona.

SUMMARY:The Five Obstructions Film Screening and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Selected by Cranbrook Art Museum curator Laura Mott to facilitate her interview with artist Scott Hocking\, who is currently exhibiting at Tube Factory artspace\, we will screen The Five Obstructions and The Perfect Human then reference the interview between her and Hocking. \nThe Five Obstructions is a 2003 Danish documentary film directed by Lars von Trier and Jørgen Leth. The film is conceived as a documentary\, but incorporates lengthy sections of experimental films produced by the filmmakers. The premise is that von Trier has created a challenge for his friend and mentor\, Jørgen Leth\, another renowned filmmaker. von Trier’s favorite film is Leth’s The Perfect Human (1967)\, and von Trier gives Leth the task of remaking The Perfect Human five times\, each time with a different “obstruction” (or obstacle) imposed by von Trier. \nIn partnership with Public House Cinema:\nWebsite: publichousecinema.com\nTwitter: @PHCinemaIndy\nInstagram: @publichousecinema\nFacebook: facebook.com/phcinemaindy\nEmail: email hidden; JavaScript is required

SUMMARY:Night of the Hunter Film Screening and Discussion
DESCRIPTION:Selected by Cranbrook Art Museum curator Laura Mott to facilitate her interview with artist Scott Hocking\, who is currently exhibiting at Tube Factory artspace\, we will screen The Night of the Hunter then reference the interview between her and Hocking. \nThe Night of the Hunter is a 1955 American film noir directed by Charles Laughton and starring Robert Mitchum\, Shelley Winters and Lillian Gish. Based on the 1953 novel of the same name by Davis Grubb\, it was adapted for the screen by James Agee and Laughton. The plot focuses on a corrupt reverend-turned-serial killer who attempts to charm an unsuspecting widow and steal $10\,000 hidden by her executed husband. \nThe novel and film draw on the true story of Harry Powers\, hanged in 1932 for the murder of two widows and three children in Clarksburg\, West Virginia. The film’s lyrical and expressionistic style with its leaning on the silent era sets it apart from other Hollywood films of the 1940s and 1950s\, and it has influenced later directors such as David Lynch\, Martin Scorsese\, Terrence Malick\, Jim Jarmusch\, Spike Lee\, and the Coen brothers. \nIn 1992\, The Night of the Hunter was deemed “culturally\, historically\, or aesthetically significant” by the United States Library of Congress and was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry. The influential film magazine Cahiers du cinéma selected The Night of the Hunter in 2008 as the second-best film of all time\, behind Citizen Kane.

SUMMARY:Ubu The King
DESCRIPTION:About the show:\nRough House Theater Company is touring to eight cities across the Midwest and East Coast with their production of Ubu the King\, Alfred Jarry’s 1896 masterpiece of absurdo-surrealism\, elaborately retold with original music and over 60 stunning hand-crafted puppets. \nIn a new adaptation by artistic director Mike Oleon\, Rough House’s Ubu the King brings Jarry’s seminal satire to life in all its absurd\, grotesque glory. In the hands of five power hungry puppeteer-performers\, Pa Ubu murders\, lies\, and farts his way up to the Polish throne – and back down again. Beautifully designed and meticulously realized by designer Grace Needlman\, Rough House’s Ubu is ridiculous\, heartbreaking\, and spectacular. \nAbout Rough House: \n\nRough House Theater Company is committed to connecting individuals and communities through art that celebrates the weird things that make us unique\, and the weirder things that bring us together. \nRough House creates theater that captures the heart through the eye. Rough House shows use puppetry\, music\, and human performance to tell stories that are intimate\, strange\, and sincere.  The company aims to invigorate audiences and inspire fellow artists through work that is rigorous\, adventurous\, and jubilantly weird. \nThrough educational programming\, cultivation of work by emerging and established artists\, and broadly accessible performances\, Rough House seeks to bring new life to puppet theater in Chicago\, and to invigorate a spirit of cross-disciplinary artistic experimentation within an ever-growing\, diverse community of artists.

SUMMARY:The Forbidden Room-Guy Maddin
DESCRIPTION:“We talk about movies being dreamlike\, but this is ridiculous. The Forbidden Room is often maddening\, occasionally beautiful\, and ultimately unforgettable\,” says Bilge Ebiri of Vulture Magazine. \nJoin us for a screening of THE FORBIDDEN ROOM\, Guy Maddin’s ultimate epic phantasmagoria. Honoring classic cinema while electrocuting it with energy\, this Russian nesting doll of a film begins (after a prologue on how to take a bath) with the crew of a doomed submarine chewing flapjacks in a desperate attempt to breathe the oxygen within. Suddenly\, impossibly\, a lost woodsman wanders into their company and tells his tale of escaping from a fearsome clan of cave dwellers. From here\, Maddin and co-director Evan Johnson take us high into the air\, around the world\, and into dreamscapes\, spinning tales of amnesia\, captivity\, deception and murder\, skeleton women and vampire bananas. Playing like some glorious meeting between Italo Calvino\, Sergei Eisenstein and a perverted six year-old child\, THE FORBIDDEN ROOM is Maddin’s grand ode to lost cinema. Created with the help of master poet John Ashbery\, the film features Mathieu Amalric\, Udo Kier\, Charlotte Rampling\, Geraldine Chaplin\, Roy Dupuis\, Clara Furey\, Louis Negin\, Maria de Medeiros\, Jacques Nolot\, Adele Haenel\, Amira Casar and Elina Lowensohn as a cavalcade of misfits\, thieves and lovers\, all joined in the joyful delirium of the kaleidoscopic viewing experience.

SUMMARY:Latino Americans: Peril and Promise (1980-2000)
DESCRIPTION:In the 80s the nature of the Latino Diaspora changes again. From Cuba a second wave of refugees to United States – the Mariel exodus – floods Miami . The same decade sees the sudden arrival of hundreds of thousands of Central Americans (Salvadorans\, Guatemalans\, and Nicaraguans) fleeing death squads and mass murders at home like activist\, Carlos Vaquerano. By the early 1990s\, a political debate over illegal immigration – has begun. Globalization\, empowered by NAFTA\, means that as U.S. manufacturers move south\, Mexican workers head north in record numbers. A backlash ensues: tightened borders\, anti-bilingualism\, state laws to declare all illegal immigrants felons. But a sea change is underway: the coalescence of a new phenomenon called Latino American culture-as Latinos spread geographically and make their mark in music\, sports\, politics\, business\, and education. Gloria Estefan leads the Miami Sound Machine creating cross over hits in Spanish and English. Oscar de la Hoya\, a Mexican-American boxer from L.A.\, becomes an Olympic gold medalist and the nation’s Golden Boy. Is a new Latino world being created here as the Latino population and influence continues to grow? Alternatively\, will Latinos in America eventually assimilate into invisibility\, as other groups have done so many times? Latinos present a challenge and an opportunity for the United States. America’s largest and youngest growing sector of the population presents what project advisor Professor Marta Tienda calls\, The Hispanic Moment.Their success could determine the growth of the United States in the twenty-first century; however their failure\, contributing to an underclass\, could also pull this country down. The key\, according to Tienda and Eduardo J. Padron\, Ph.D.\, President of Miami Dade Community College\, is education. \nLatino Americans: 5oo Years of History\, a public programming initiative produced by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEH) and the American Library Association (ALA)\, is part of the NEH initiative\, The Common Good: Humanities in the Public Square.

SUMMARY:Latino Americans:The New Latinos (1946-1965)
DESCRIPTION:Until World War II\, Latino immigration to the United States was overwhelmingly Mexican-American. Now three new waves bring large-scale immigration from Puerto Rico\, Cuba\, and the Dominican Republic. As the Puerto Rican government implements a historic overhaul over a million Puerto Ricans are encouraged to leave for the US mainland\, to alleviate the economic pressure. A young Juanita Sanabria arrives in New York\, works hard in the garment district\, but encounters hostility and discrimination. Ethnic tensions explode in youth gang warfare depicted in films like West Side Story\, etching the stereotype of the knife wielding Puerto Rican in the American consciousness. \nIn the film\, Rita Moreno plays the role of Anita and wins an Oscar. But for most Puerto Ricans empowerment remains elusive. A young Puerto Rican lawyer\, Herman Badillo\, takes on the political establishment\, opening the door for unprecedented Puerto Rican participation in electoral politics. In the early 60s\, the first Cubans flee the left-wing Castro regime\, a relatively white\, middle-class flight that soon forms a refugee enclave in Miami.

SUMMARY:Latino Americans-The New Latinos (1946-1965)
DESCRIPTION:Until World War II\, Latino immigration to the United States was overwhelmingly Mexican-American. Now three new waves bring large-scale immigration from Puerto Rico\, Cuba\, and the Dominican Republic. As the Puerto Rican government implements a historic overhaul over a million Puerto Ricans are encouraged to leave for the US mainland\, to alleviate the economic pressure. A young Juanita Sanabria arrives in New York\, works hard in the garment district\, but encounters hostility and discrimination. Ethnic tensions explode in youth gang warfare depicted in films like West Side Story\, etching the stereotype of the knife wielding Puerto Rican in the American consciousness. \nIn the film\, Rita Moreno plays the role of Anita and wins an Oscar. But for most Puerto Ricans empowerment remains elusive. A young Puerto Rican lawyer\, Herman Badillo\, takes on the political establishment\, opening the door for unprecedented Puerto Rican participation in electoral politics. In the early 60s\, the first Cubans flee the left-wing Castro regime\, a relatively white\, middle-class flight that soon forms a refugee enclave in Miami. A child of 11 at the time\, Gustavo Perez Firmat believes like most refugees\, that it is only a matter of weeks before the American government will wrest Cuba from the Communist regime. But Castro survives. Maria de los Angeles Torres is only six years old when she leaves Havana without her parents\, one of 14\,000 children are smuggled out through an underground network. Unable to leave legally\, Manuel Capo and his two military age sons – make a dramatic journey to the US. With skills honed in the family furniture business in Cuba and support from the federal government\, the Capos build thriving business marketing to the growing Cuban population. \nIn 1965\, fearing another Communist takeover in the Caribbean\, President Johnson sends Marines to the Dominican Republic\, triggering a third wave of immigration. With a US visa in hand\, 20 year-old university student\, Eligio Peña\, flees to New York. Eventually he brings his family to New York as Dominicans build a new home in Washington Heights. Julia Alvarez would take the immigrant experience – her own and that of her fellow Dominicans – to unprecedented literary heights in How the Garcia Girls Lost Their Accents.
