Formal and stark, 3 Dancers, 4 Chairs, 26 Words unravels the language of movement, symbols and words. Growing out of just 26 words, the piece asks if a dance with text can retain the open and direct nature of pure movement. Can words be abstract? How do choreographic structures change sentences and sounds? How do words move? And what are those aspects of human experience that cannot be pinned down and named?
Performance held in conjunction with "Simulacrum, Stacks, and Signs" an exhibition of photography by Mathew Pokoik.
Center for Performance Research (CPR)is located at 361 Manhattan Avenue in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and is the singular new development for the performing arts in Brooklyn’s first L.E.E.D.-certified green building of its kind. This 4000 square foot arts facility is an-artist driven initiative co-founded by Jonah Bokaer/Chez Bushwick, Inc. and John Jasperse/Thin Man Dance, Inc. This new development aims to provide affordable space for rehearsal and performance, innovative arts programming, education and pedagogical engagement with the communities of New York City and abroad, as well as a dynamic new model for sustainable arts infrastructure in dance and performance. During a real estate climate that threatens to displace the arts from maintaining permanent and affordable space in New York City, CPR offers a pioneering approach to both civic development and fortification for dance and performance at the community level. |
