The Art of Presence: A Workshop Series in Contemplative Performance

Art History In an era of hyper-acceleration, the most radical act we can take is to slow down, listen, and respond through movement from a place of genuine interiority. This series of workshops uses the body to focus and center thoughts, an invitation to step into a sanctuary of time and rediscover the power of presence.   Over three sessions, join Héctor Alvarez, interdisciplinary artist and assistant teaching professor in Theater Studies, to learn how to connect mindfulness and creative expression.    Tuesday, September 1, Session 1: Deep Listening Inspired by composer Pauline Oliveros's philosophy that "listening is the basis of all culture," this session focuses on expanding our ability to listen in every possible way to everything possible to hear.     Tuesday, September 8, Session 2: Slow Tempo By decelerating movement to its threshold, we will heighten kinesthetic awareness and let imagery activate the senses.    Tuesday, September 22, Session 3: Authentic Movement We conclude by exploring the relationship between… Event Location: Carlos Museum, Ackerman Hall.

Shot on a budget of $175,000 in 12 days, the film has grossed over $8 million. It opened in New York City on August 8, 1986 with Island Pictures, 40 years ago. Shot in black and white, primarily to keep cost down, it is set in late 1980s Brooklyn and positioned to tell a story of Nola Darling (Tracy Camilla Johns) as an independent and forward-thinking young, Black woman and her concurrent sexual relationships with three different men. Critics called it “an instant hit” (Black Enterprise), a “surprise smash” (People), and Lee, “the black Woody Allen.” Some film scholars, especially Black feminist ones, have been less laudatory. Cultural critic bell hooks remarked: “The narrators are male, and the story is a male-centered, male-biased patriarchal tale. As such, it is… University Event Topic: Arts.

Film & Media The Emory Cinematheque Presents: Do the Right Thing September 16 at 7:30 p.m. in White Hall 208 1989 | Run Time: 120 min | DCP  Directed by Spike Lee Introduced by Dr. Miriam Petty (Northwestern University)   Do the Right Thing is one of Spike Lee’s most powerful films and addresses the lasting impact of racist ideology on African-American and larger U.S. communities, especially within communities where many people must live together. Lee battled with Paramount over the budget and script—issues that were not resolved. He finally ended up getting a deal with Universal Studios along with final cut approval—something he felt committed to having based on the marketing fiasco with School Daze. Do the Right Thing is Lee’s first union film—meaning, the first time he would use a union crew. With some wrangling, he secured a number of African-Americans into the International Brotherhood of Teamsters union, most who had been formerly excluded.   Do the Right Thing, in many people’s minds, is the film that launched Lee… University Event Topic: Arts.

The film is based on the 1964 book, The Autobiography of Malcolm X as told to Alex Haley, which was published one year before Malcolm X’s assassination. In the film, audiences see Malcolm X through various points of his varied, short life: as Malcolm Little, Malcolm X, and El- Hajj Malik El-Shabazz. Getting the film to screen was no small feat since others had tried as well, having several different screenwriters over time. Film scholar Anna Everett writes about Lee’s negotiations with the work: “For Lee, courting controversy over Malcolm X was a necessary act of political and cultural intervention that turned on matters of credibility, authenticity, and even profitability.” In an interview, Lee talks about the importance of Malcolm… University Event Topic: Arts.

That's the urban community Spike Lee recreates in Crooklyn, a funny, high-energy movie about Carolyn and Woody Carmichael, and their five kids.” (Network Journal) Crooklyn is a presumed semi-autobiographical tale of Shelton ‘Spike’ Lee’s family as told through a young girl, presumably his sister Joie Lee who co-wrote it with him along with their brother Cinque Lee. This is the second film in which Lee centers a female protagonist, the first being She’s Gotta Have It. Cinematographer Arthur Jaffa lenses this beautiful film that moves from the idyllic summer days of 1970s Brooklyn to the heat of the Black Virginia south.

The Emory Cinematheque Presents: Clockers

Film & Media The Emory Cinematheque Presents: Clockers October 14 at 7:30 p.m. in White Hall 208 1995 | Run Time: 128 min. | DCP Directed by Spike Lee Introduced by Dr. Paula Massood (Brooklyn College CUNY) Clockers opens as the first film Spike Lee directed that he did not actually write. Adapted from Richard Price’s book Clockers, Lee taps cinematographer Malik Hassan Sayeed to re-imagine Black urban life set in the cross hairs of nonsensical violence. Using grainy film stock and differentiating dolly shots, Lee focuses on a group beyond the Black middle class. The film feels reminiscent to his 1983 thesis film, Joe’s Bedstuy Barbershop: We Cut Heads but with a 1990s sensibility and ownership. Clockers emerged at the beginning of what has been described as both a renaissance of Black filmmaking and a new Black exploitation period. This period was kicked off in 1991 with the releases of New Jack City and Boyz in the Hood. The success of these films encouraged Hollywood to produce several narratives of Black, urban, and… University Event Topic: Arts. School: All Emory University.

Girl 6 is Spike Lee’s eighth commercial film and the third where he centers a woman as the main protagonist. Made in 1996, it is based on a play by African-American playwright Suzan-Lori Parks. It examines the phone sex business (as a parody of Hollywood) and one Black woman’s dreams against her negotiation of that industry.  Essence gushes about Theresa Randle who stars as girl 6 saying, “Randle possesses the chameleonlike ability to be every woman you've ever known and one you've never met before.” Even cultural critic bell hooks, known for getting in Lee’s a** about his work, says: “I find Girl 6 to be a movie that not only challenges Hollywood but is a critical read on Hollywood.” In a surrealist tone, the film attempts to deconstruct the lucrative but under-explored entertainment… University Event Topic: Arts.

Film & Media The Emory Cinematheque Presents: 4 Little Girls October 28, 7:30 p.m. in White Hall 208 1997 | Run Time: 102 min. | Digital Directed by Spike Lee Introduced by Dr. Christine Acham (University of Hawai'i at Manoa)   4 Little Girls is Spike Lee’s first feature-length documentary. The film asks audiences to relive the horrific tragedy of the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church bombing in Birmingham, Alabama on a Sunday morning in 1963. It poignantly examines not only what happened but more importantly, the lives of the girls killed and the lives of those left behind. “Only a filmmaker so resourceful, so entirely confident in his practiced craft, could have made such a quilt out of patches of nightmare and nostalgia – of gospels, ghosts, and grief. And only Lee, having earned the trust of these people, could have persuaded them to talk to him” (New York Magazine).

Released in 2000, Bamboozled garnered a split reception of its meaning, significance and impact on filmmaking and Black representation. In her book Critical Race Theory and Bamboozled, film scholar Alessandra Raengo suggests that the film may be the… University Event Topic: Arts. School: All Emory University.
