Emory Cinematheque: I Saw the TV Glow
Film & Media
Spring 2025 Cinematheque: "Film on Film"
Free event / No Tickets required
The Emory Cinematheque, a series of film screenings offered by the Department of Film and Media and Emory College of Arts and Sciences, is back for 2025. This spring, the Cinematheque is pleased to present “Film on Film,” an international selection of movies about what it means to make, view, and live with moving images.
In the mid-1990s, two teenagers (Justice Smith and Jack Haven) bond over late-night TV show The Pink Opaque. As a series of unpredictable events unfolds, their relationship to the show, and to reality itself, comes into question. A haunting, haunted meditation on fandom, identity, and the power of screens, I Saw the TV Glow will keep replaying in your mind long after its conclusion. From the opening frame, director Jane Shoenbrun’s visual and sonic sensibilities lend the film a feeling that is somehow both dreamlike and rooted in the material realities, the exaltations, and the traumas of media and embodied existence.…

Free Event/RSVP Requested, A Network of Autonomy features work from Atlanta artists that emphasize the social and environmental aspects that comprise reproductive rights. Selected artwork will invite viewers to adopt a broader definition of reproductive justice and what the world would look like if we could all do the same. The work engages with the complexities of reproductive justice in both personal and collective contexts, inviting deeper reflection on what is lost when reproductive justice is viewed solely through the lens of clinical environments.
The opening reception on March 20th will include two performances: “Tethered,” choreographed by Cecilia Rodriguez with dancers Maggie Harrison, Leah Lipshutz, Sofia Tovar, Marley Crosby; and “Sometimes hidden from me in daily custom and in ritual I live by you unaware” choreographed and performed by Hiroko Kelly.
Featured Artists: Amber Rissman, Cecilia Rodriguez, Heather Bird Harris, Hiroko Kelly, Janelle Dunlap, Katy Beltrán, and Savannah O’Leary

"New York Voices lives up to its reputation as the most exciting vocal ensemble in current jazz, to collect such quality voices in one group is rare enough, yet the real trick of New York Voices is how well they mesh. . ."—Boston Herald
Award-winning New York Voices has a history of collaborations with institutions such as the Count Basie Orchestra, Paquito d’Rivera, and the Dizzy Gillespie All-Star Big Band. With selections from the quartet’s latest release, Reminiscing in Tempo, this concert takes a deep dive into the jazz canon, surfacing with standards by Cole Porter and Al Jolson, alongside gems from the catalogues of Chick Corea, Fred Hersch, and Duke Ellington.

This spring, the Cinematheque is pleased to present “Film on Film,” an international selection of movies about what it means to make, view, and live with moving images.
Sometimes thought of as a British equivalent to Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho (1960), Peeping Tom shares a release year and some thematic elements with Hitchcock’s film, but it creates an atmosphere all its own. Starting from its opening in which a murder is depicted in the first person as seen through the viewfinder of a camera, Peeping Tom was highly controversial at the time of its release and it nearly derailed the career of its director, previously best known for films including Black Narcissus (1947) and The Red Shoes (1948). With time, it has come to be viewed as a classic of British Cinema, and as a landmark of…

Art History
The news is full of images and stories of people having to flee their homes because of war, hunger, or disease. Many of us have normalized the sight to such an extent that we barely notice it anymore. But what does it feel like to actually have to leave your home and everything – also often everyone – you love and care about behind? What would it feel like for all of us, had we been forced to abandon our place of origin, without the choice of going back?
In this writing workshop, "Put yourself in my shoes": Writing, Home, and Displacement, participants will be led by Nicoletta Demetriou, who will draw from her experience as a “refugee child," and as an ethnographer of the refugee condition, to ask participants, through a series of prompts and texts, to reflect on these difficult issues, put themselves in the shoes of a displaced person, and write about it.
Nicoletta – an ethnomusicologist, singer, and writing coach from Cyprus – has been teaching similar writing workshops for Greek and Turkish Cypriots…

“Cancellation Island: A Leftist Critique of Artistic Correctness,” a Master Class with John Cameron Mitchell
John Cameron Mitchell at Emory
Free Event / Registration Required
This will be a discussion of how P.C. policing and identity politics, which originated out of a sincere attempt to correct wrongs, has, at times, divided and blocked artists seeking to make things better. He will explore how the sentence "that's not your story to tell" can frustrate the goal of art - especially narrative fictional art - which is to put the viewer (and artist) in the shoes of those whom they seem have little in common. In an era where facts are suspect, we might be in danger of curtailing and even cancelling an indispensable tool to generate empathy and change and we push reasonable folks to the dark side of "freedom". John, whose work springs from punk, drag and AIDS activism was taught that all words and imagery - however "offensive" - were fair game in trying to create empathy and justice. He will play sections of his fictional podcast series "Cancellation Island" to illustrate some of these ideas and will seek a healthy…

Later, as middle-aged retirees on the British Isle of Jersey, they took on the occupying Nazis with their art propaganda.

Emory Art History's Endowed Lecture: "The Intelligent Hand: From Hellenistic Epigram to the Hoby Cups"
Verity Platt, Professor of Greek and Roman Art, Cornell University
This lecture takes its lead from the artist who signed his name on the silver cups from Hoby (now in the National Museum of Denmark) as ‘Cheirisophos’ meaning ‘Wise Hand’. Rather than just taking the name as a playful pseudonym, it explores how the artist’s self-identification can be read alongside the scenes of diplomacy, supplication, and healing on the cups themselves, which are also examples of intelligent acts of touch. In their allusions to Greek epic and drama, these scenes also draw on a long tradition in Graeco-Roman culture exploring the entangled relationship between hand and mind. As a form of enactive or extended cognition, the ‘wisdom of hands’ is also key to Hellenistic Greek epigrams on works of art, especially those on bronze statues by the third century BCE poet Posidippus. The notion of the ‘intelligent hand’ emerging from the craft of metalwork, challenges the instrumentalist assumptions of Aristotle’s claim that the ha…

Take a moment to slow down and breathe as you participate in two timeless traditions: creating mosaics and sketching in the galleries. Choose a work of art that inspires you, settle in with provided materials, and bring it to life on paper.
This event runs alongside Slow Down and Sketch, so feel free to alternate between crafting mosaics and capturing works of art.

Women of Wikipedia Edit-a-thon
Libraries
In honor of Women’s History Month in March, join us on Friday, March 28 to help edit Wikipedia to make sure women are represented. Less than 20% of English Wikipedia biographies profile women, according to the Women in Red Project. The Women of Wikipedia Edit-a-thon strives to write more articles about notable women of all races, nationalities, and ethnicities (including transgender and nonbinary individuals).
This is the 10th year that the Emory Libraries and Teaching and Learning Technologies (TLT) will host a Wikipedia Edit-a-thon to improve the coverage of women in Wikipedia by training new Wikipedia editors. This year’s Edit-a-thon will be hosted in person.
We invite all Emory students, faculty, and staff to participate. Don’t forget to bring your own laptop!

Dance
2024–2025 Emory Dance
Free, No Tickets Required
This project is at the intersection of dance and Black queer theory. Through a mixture of solo and group work, this project will use Thomas DeFrantz’s theory of queer corporeal orature to explore how house dance uses Black queer aesthetics to disrupt oppressive narratives of Blackness including Black queer identity. These oppressive narratives include Western binaries such as normal vs. abnormal, mind vs. body, and performer vs. audience. These aesthetics include polyrhythmic movement, fluid socialities, and unrepressed sensualities. This project aims to draw attention to art’s capability to create and preserve marginalized cultures/identities. It also hopes to inspire authentic and critical representations of Black queer culture in the broader community.
Recommended parking for Schwartz Center events is the Fishburne Parking Deck (free for events after 6 p.m. and on weekends).

A Musical Journey to Cyprus: Traditional Songs of Love, Sorrow, and Hope
Art History
Throughout history, Cyprus has been variously described as ‘the island of love’ ‘the birthplace of Aphrodite’ ‘the blessed isle’ ‘the land of lemon and olive trees’ among many other things. But in the past half century, Cyprus has also been known as a land of pain and sorrow; an island of division and loss. On this ‘Musical Journey to Cyprus,' Nicoletta Demetriou (voice), Nikitas Tampakis (viola), Roger Mgrdichian (oud), and Panayotis League (laouto and perscussion) explore this varied identity, as expressed through the island’s music and song. Join these accomplished musicians on an imaginary journey to Cyprus, as they sing about the joys and intricacies of love, the pain and sorrow of loss, and the hope for better days to come.

Since performing a bunch of different ways i’d like to die (Best Autobiographical One-Man Show, United Solo Theatre Festival, 2019), Tim McDonough has written about two fictional stage performers whose careers embody his convictions about acting as a craft, a way of life, and an existential perspective.

Immersed in Infinity: Bhakti in Carnatic Music
Art History
"Immersed in Infinity: Bhakti in Carnatic Music" features three musicians from the tradition of Carnatic Music: Vishaal Sapuram (chitraveena, a fretless stringed instrument); Sruti Sarathy (violin); and Kuloor Jayachandra Rao (mridangam, a two-headed drum). These artists take up the theme of bhakti--a South Asian religious concept which generally refers to the love of god, but is also a political and cultural concept frequently invoked in conversations about national identity and the purpose of the arts. Sapuram, Sarathy, and Rao will present artistic perspectives on bhakti, exhibiting different shades of this emotion as it has been explored in Carnatic Music.

A Network of Autonomy - Expert Panel and Workshop
Free Event/RSVP Requested, A Network of Autonomy features work from Atlanta artists that emphasize the social and environmental aspects that comprise reproductive rights. Selected artwork will invite viewers to adopt a broader definition of reproductive justice and what the world would look like if we could all do the same. The work engages with the complexities of reproductive justice in both personal and collective contexts, inviting deeper reflection on what is lost when reproductive justice is viewed solely through the lens of clinical environments.
Join us for a panel discussion and workshop in honor of the show’s closing on March 31st. At 7:00pm, Emory’s Center for Ethics will facilitate the conversation with artist Hiroko Kelly and special guests Kwajelyn Jackson, Executive Director at Feminist Women’s Health Center (FWHC) in Atlanta, and Hilary Mabel, a Bioethicist/Healthcare Ethicist at the Center for Ethics and an Assistant Professor of Medicine at Emory’s School of Medicine.

Spring 2025 Cinematheque: "Film on Film"
Free event / No Tickets required
The Emory Cinematheque, a series of film screenings offered by the Department of Film and Media and Emory College of Arts and Sciences, is back for 2025. This spring, the Cinematheque is pleased to present “Film on Film,” an international selection of movies about what it means to make, view, and live with moving images.
Cheryl (Cheryl Dunye, who also wrote, directed, and edited) is a video store employee who undertakes a documentary project investigating the identity of a Black actress, credited only as “The Watermelon Woman,” from a 1930s movie called Plantation Memories. Through her research and a series of interviews, Cheryl’s project, along with The Watermelon Woman itself, becomes an exploration of Black lesbian identity and the exclusionary practices of the film industry and of film historiography. The Watermelon Woman is a landmark of independent cinema and a 2021 inductee to the National Film Registry.

“The signature contribution of this group [is] a technical ease with extravagant gestures, intense production of sound, and the daring expressive liberties that come only after musicians have developed a sixth sense of ensemble-bonding. Imani’s got it all.”—Philadelphia Inquirer
The dynamic and adventurous Imani Winds rejoin forces with longtime friends Boston Brass in a brand-new collaboration. The artists' Schwartz Center debut features each group separately and collaboratively, with works by Khachaturian and Bach, modern masters D'Rivera and Simon, and culminating with a performance of a newly commissioned work by musical icon Arturo Sandoval.

The Emory Cinematheque, a series of film screenings offered by the Department of Film and Media and Emory College of Arts and Sciences, is back for 2025. This spring, the Cinematheque is pleased to present “Film on Film,” an international selection of movies about what it means to make, view, and live with moving images.
One of the great cinematic humanists, Jafar Panahi is the director of some of the best-known Iranian films of the 1990s and 2000s. Since an arrest in 2010, however, he has been prohibited from making films in his home country. Panahi’s immediate response was This is Not a Film (2011), the first in a series of innovative meta-films made in defiance of the ban. In No Bears, Panahi, playing a fictionalized version of himself, moves to a small town so that he can remotely direct a film across the border in Turkey.

Stewart primarily works with piano, violin, voice, guitar, and synthesizers.
From a very young age Macie was drawn towards sound; learning to communicate with music while simultaneously learning to communicate with words. Stewart’s experience as an open collaborator and composer in her own right has led her music to become fluid and expansive- drawing on all that has come before while intentionally searching for something new. “Mouth Full of Glass” was her debut solo project: released fall of 2021 in the US and as an international release in fall of 2022. Since then, Macie has created two full length sound installations, "Hisako's House" a site-specific multimedia piece involving dance, visuals, and music with choreographer Robyn Mineko Williams; as well as "The World Doubles in Size" a quadraphonic sound installation through…
