    Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (1993)

    The “best Batman” debate rages still, with Snyder freaks stumping for Batfleck, Burton boys high on the current Keaton-aissance, and Nolan lovers still going gaga over the gritty and grim Bale. Sorry to say that this argument is basically coughing baby vs. hydrogen bomb: the late Kevin Conroy, voice of Batman in the animated series and throughout the Arkham Asylum games, blows those other bats outta the cave. Don’t believe me? Check out this animated classic while it’s screening at Alamo, then. Harkening to his Forties roots, this Batman tale has him delving into his past in ways deeper than a strand of broken pearls – all animated in the gorgeous Art Deco-esque style of Batman: The Animated Series. – James Scott

    Nicole Awai’s “In the thick of it”

    Trinidad-born artist Nicole Awai’s work centers around “the ooze.” What is the ooze, you ask? Both material and metaphorical, it encompasses the viscous media Awai uses, like synthetic polymers, and evokes the blurred boundaries of cultural, historical, and personal identity that she references in her work. “Awai’s practice ‘overflows’ traditional boundaries as it often interweaves elements from her Caribbean heritage with broader themes of globalization and diaspora,” writes Phillip A. Townsend, curator of UT’s Art Galleries at Black Studies. Awai’s work has referenced history ranging from Civil War monuments at UT-Austin and Grand Army Plaza in New York to Trinidadian folklore about the La Brea tar pits in Los Angeles, all while “foregrounding the transformative potential of the ooze,” writes Townsend. – Lina Fisher
