Introducing our Cinema Series for ReSignifications! Carefully curated to supplement our current exhibition, these stellar films from around the world will be screened Fridays at noon through the month of April.


Due to unforeseen circumstances the Cooper Gallery will be reprising the showing of Guelwaar.


Directed by Ousmane Sembene Guelwaar begins as funeral preparations begin for Pierre Henri "Guelwaar" Thioune (Thierno Ndiaye), and rumor spreads that his death may have been an assassination in retaliation for his radical political beliefs and constant criticism of the current regime. When the heroic Guelwaar's cadaver is stolen, Detective Gora (Omar Seck) begrudgingly investigates. he discovers that Guelwaar was a complicated man guilty of his own share of sins.
