The Start of Something Big: The Judith Center Launches Its Space in Downtown LA
Kathryn Andrews at the opening of The Judith Center Photo by Molly O'Keeffe/Capture Imaging, Courtesy of Kathryn Andrews and the Judith Center Last Saturday night, The Judith Center, a not-for-profit dedicated to examining societal sex discrimination and advocating for gender equality, opened its first physical location, at The Reef, a commercial building in Downtown LA whose 12th floor is dedicated to artists and art organizations. Judith Center founder Kathryn Andrews, a noted sculptor and conceptual artist, spoke briefly at the ribbon center cutting ceremony. The new space, Andrews said, will be home to the Center's programming which will include art exhibitions, panels, talks, a book and poetry club, a lending library and more. Also participating in the ribbon cutting was Michelle Woo, co-founder of the nonprofit For Freedoms, as well as one of The Guerrilla Girls, the iconic feminist artist group who have been fighting sexism and racism in the art world since the 1980s and who debuted a 'complaint department' installation that night. The Judith Center has already held several discussion panels including during Frieze LA and staged exhibitions at the Felix Art Fair. The Judith Center also organized an exhibition at MSU Broad Art Museum at Michigan State University featuring the first phase of a five year project to feature 50 posters of new work made by artists. Some of the posters by artists such as Lynn Hershman Leeson and Warren Niedich were on view at last Saturday night's opening. Guerrilla Girls at the ribbon cutting ceremony for the Judith Center Photo by Molly O'Keeffe/Capture Imaging, Courtesy Kathryn Andrews and The Judith Center The Judith Center opening was a joyous celebration, where attendees enjoyed ample food and drink and listened to music provided by BlueWhale, featuring a curated performance by a female jazz trio—Nicole McCabe, Sophia Trevor, and Lauren Ellis—as well as DJ Cody Perkins. There was also interactive art installations by the Guerrilla Girls, as well as from LA-based artist and computer programmer, and UCLA professor Lauren Lee McCarthy. To raise funds for the Judith Center there was a raffle for gift baskets, as well as a silent auction of sets of books curated by well-known artists and writers such as Rashid Johnson, Andrea Fraser, Lauren Halsey, Andrea Bowers, Barbara T. Smith, Ron Athey, rafa esparza, Judith Butler and Riane Eisler. There was also a limited-edition t-shirt will be produced by Ei Arakawa-Nash, the LA-based Japanese American performance artist, who will represent Japan at the 2026 Venice Biennale. Standing in the room, surrounded by some 250 diverse creatives in all disciplines and of all ages, one couldn't help but feel that one was at the start of something big.

Rare Jeff Buckley Live Footage To Screen With New Doc
Nearly 30 minutes of previously unreleased footage featuring the late Jeff Buckley performing solo at the Middle East in Cambridge, Ma., on Feb. 19, 1994, will be exclusively shown following theatrical screenings of the upcoming documentary It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley, which arrives on Aug. 8. 'Discovering this footage felt like a dream,' said director Amy Berg. 'I was instantly transported into that room, witnessing a barely discovered virtuosic talent alongside just a handful of others. I was left speechless — and more than a few tears were shed. It's an absolute pleasure to share this newly mastered footage and give audiences the chance to experience it on the big screen.' More from Spin: Deep Cut Friday: 'I'm a Man You Don't Meet Every Day' by the Pogues 5 Albums I Can't Live Without: Sam Carter of Architects Jörgen Releases First Single on SPIN Records Buckley came close to transcending his status as the son of British folk legend Tim Buckley during his short musical life, which ended tragically when he accidentally drowned in Memphis at the age of 30 in 1997. Most of his acclaim owes to his early solo shows in defunct downtown New York venues such as Sin-é and his lone studio full-length, Grace, which has been hailed as one of the best debut albums ever made. The Cambridge concert took place six months before the release of Grace and included several songs from that project, such as 'Lover, You Should Have Come Over,' 'Mojo Pin' and 'Last Goodbye.' It's Never Over premiered at Sundance in January after years in the making and will be available on HBO and HBO Max in the winter under the Music Box series umbrella. Among the subjects interviewed for it are Buckley's mother, Mary Guibert, bandmates Michael Tighe and Parker Kindred, ex-partners Rebecca Moore and Joan Wasser and musicians such as Mann and Ben Harper.

‘With Hasan in Gaza' Is a Cinematic 'Homage to Gaza and Its People' (Exclusive Locarno Trailer)
Images speak louder than words, they say. A trailer for With Hasan in Gaza from Palestinian filmmaker Kamal Aljafari (A Fidai Film, Recollection, An Unusual Summer), which world premieres in the competition lineup of the 78th edition of the Locarno Film Festival on Aug. 7, abides by that saying. Below, THR can exclusively reveal the first trailer for the film ahead of the Swiss festival, which runs Aug. 6-16. More from The Hollywood Reporter Avex Music Group and S10 Report Early 2025 Chart Successes Japan's Biggest Bank Joins K2 Pictures' Indie Film Fund (Exclusive) Henry Cavill, Longines' Ambassador of Elegance, on Watches, Style and Summer Plans ("Highlander!") 'Three MiniDV tapes of life in Gaza from 2001 were recently rediscovered,' reads a synopsis of the movie on the Locarno festival website. 'What started as a search for a former prison mate from 1989 led to an unexpected road trip from the north to the south of Gaza with Hasan, a local guide whose fate remains unknown.' The summary also promises 'a cinematic reflection on memory, loss, and the passage of time, capturing a Gaza of the past and lives that may never be found again.' Aljafari, in a director's note, describes the film as 'an homage to Gaza and its people, to all that was erased and that came back to me in this urgent moment of Palestinian existence, or non-existence.' And he highlights: 'It is a film about the catastrophe, and the poetry that resists.' The movie was produced by the filmmaker through his Kamal Aljafari Productions, with the support of the Doha Film Institute, Cnap – Image/mouvement, the Gwaertler Stiftung, the Columbia Institute for Ideas and Imagination, the Media City Film Festival's Chrysalis Fellowship, and Atelier 105 – Light Cone. The trailer for With Hasan in Gaza now provides a first glimpse of some of the images captured on this trip through Gaza, including kids approaching the camera and a drive along the coastline. 'I went to Gaza 24 years ago searching for a friend, without an address,' the filmmaker says. 'This is my first film, which I have never made.' Check out the trailer for With Hasan in Gaza below.
