Dancers go to the bathroom

hummingwitch@gmail.com (Eva Yaa Asantewaa) — Mon, 06 Oct 2008 08:00:30 -0500

Dark Horse/Black Forest, by Yanira Castro + Company, brings dance to a space really near you--your bathroom.

That's right. Get in touch with Castro through her new season's sponsoring organization, Performance Space 122, and you can arrange your own private performance of this work in your bathroom.

"There are no theatrical divisions and the experience is not one of distance but rather that of action beside and around you. By deciding to invite the dancers into your home you are granted the unique and exquisite experience of forever owning and being a part of a piece of live art."

To arrange for a performance, email darkhorse@ps122.org.

Ailey's new yoga program

hummingwitch@gmail.com (Eva Yaa Asantewaa) — Sun, 05 Oct 2008 14:14:49 -0500

On Tuesday, October 7, The Ailey Extension, partnering with yoga instructor Porschla Coleman, launches a new weekly Tapas Yoga program. Tapas is a Jivamukti-inspired technique, and its name means fire or burning. All classes will be taught by teachers of color whose training has been sponsored by Russell Simmons. Coleman’s clients have included Simmons, Jason Kidd, and many other celebrities.

The Ailey Extension features dance and fitness classes--including Lester Horton technique, West African dance, ballet, hip hop, jazz dance and more. These classes are open to the general public for beginners and students of all levels of movement experience.

Porschla Coleman is a certified Jivamukti yoga teacher, philanthropist and model who received her yoga teaching certification at the world renowned Omega Institute. She chose to get her certification in Jivamukti yoga because it is considered the most respected practice in the world. She attended an intense 30-day immersion in yoga philosophy and scripture, the history of yoga, an introduction to Sanskrit, introduction to anatomy, and all aspects of Jivamukti Yoga. Porschla has been mentored by such great yogis as Sharon Gannon, David Life and Gabriela Bozic and believes that yoga is a life attitude, through which one learns to accept responsibility for his or herself and all the actions of one's life. She firmly believes that Yogis can make the world a more beautiful and more sincere place. In addition to her yoga teachings, Porschla sits on the Board of Directors for the Marsha Barber Community Center which is a community center being built in one of the hardest hit areas of Mississippi after Hurricane Katrina. Being from Mississippi, this charity holds a special place in her heart. Porschla is also the newest correspondent for Talk Radio News Service which will soon take her around the world to raise awareness of global humanitarian issues.

No quarrel with Jones

hummingwitch@gmail.com (Eva Yaa Asantewaa) — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 10:37:33 -0500

Bill T. Jones's A Quarreling Pair, which regrettably closes tomorrow evening at BAM's Gilman Opera House, is a huge, generous apparition--95 minutes of full-tilt, multidimensional vaudeville of the mind. Blown up from a four-page, two-character puppet play written by Jane Bowles in 1945, it has become a thing of delicate and bodacious beauty, oddity, vulgarity, fierce insight and poetry in equal measure. It speaks of the nakedness, the vulnerability of the artist who ventures out into the messy, messy world.

Every artist who put his or her shoulder to this wheel gave of the highest quality: Bill T. Jones (conception, direction, originial text, and choreography in collaboration with Janet Wong and the company), Bjorn G. Amelan (set design--wow!), Robert Wierzel (lighting), Liz Prince (costume design--heavenly!); Janet Wong (video design); Sam Crawford (sound design--crafty!), and the excellent team of Wynne Bennett, Christopher William Antonio Lancaster and George Lewis, Jr. (composition and performance of original music). Jones's sublime performers include Antonio Brown, Asli Bulbul, Peter Chamberlin, Leah Cox, Maija Garcia, Shayla-Vie Jenkins, LaMichael Leonard, I-Ling Liu, Paul Matteson and Erick Montes with Tracy Ann Johnson.

Sure to stand as one of the highlights of the current season and of Jones's exceptional career, A Quarreling Pair should be seen now and revisited. I can barely wait for its return.

invites you to a Roundtable
Saturday, October 4, 2008 at 3:30pm

The Philoctetes Center
247 East 82nd Street
(Phone: 646-422-0544; email: info@philoctetes.org)

Events at Philoctetes are free and open to the public. Seating is on a first come basis.

The Body and its Image

Over the past decade there has been a moral panic about inappropriate body size. Anorexia nervosa and obesity have become touchstones for discussions of social and personal failure, of the supremacy of genetics over human choice, of the global expansion of normative ideas of the body—indeed, for virtually all discussions about what has gone wrong in our contemporary world. Meanwhile, artistic representations offer another vision of what it means to inhabit a body. This panel will examine the interlocked questions of the meanings attached today to bodily difference and representation, and the role that these debates play in our psychological and physical well-being.

Marina Abramovic has been a pioneer of performance as a visual art form since beginning her career in Belgrade in the early 1970s. The body has always been both her subject and medium. She has explored her physical and mental limits in works that ritualize the simple actions of everyday life. From 1975–88, Abramovic collaborated with the German artist Ulay, addressing the nature of duality. Since returning to solo performances in 1989, she has presented her work at major institutions in the US and Europe, including the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris and the Neue National Galerie in Berlin. She has also participated in many large-scale international exhibitions, including the Venice Biennale and Documenta VI, VII, and IX in Kassel, Germany. Recent performances include "House with Ocean View" at New York's Sean Kelly Gallery and "7 Easy Pieces" at the Guggenheim Museum. Among her upcoming projects are a retrospective at MoMA and a theatre piece directed by Robert Wilson that will premier in 2011.

Paul Campos is Professor of Law at the University of Colorado and a syndicated columnist for the Scripps Howard News Service. He has written widely about the legal, medical, and social consequences of narrow definitions of what constitutes a "normal body." He is the author of The Obesity Myth. His work on this subject has been featured in Scientific American, The New York Times, The New Republic, The Los Angeles Times, and many other publications.

Sander Gilman (moderator) is a Distinguished Professor of the Liberal Arts and Sciences and Professor of Psychiatry at Emory University, where he is the Director of the Program in Psychoanalysis and the Health Sciences Humanities Initiative. A cultural and literary historian, he is the author or editor of eighty books. His Oxford lectures, Multiculturalism and the Jews, appeared in 2006. His most recent edited volume, Diets and Dieting: A Cultural Encyclopedia, appeared in 2007. He has held professorships in humanities and medicine at Cornell University, the University of Chicago and the University of Illinois at Chicago. He has also served as the Visiting Historical Scholar at the National Library of Medicine in Bethesda; as a fellow at Stanford's Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences; as a Berlin prize fellow at the American Academy in Berlin; and as the Weidenfeld Visiting Professor of European Comparative Literature at Oxford University.

Marcel Kinsbourne is a behavioral neurologist and Professor of Psychology at the New School. Educated at Oxford University, he has held professorships at Duke University and the University of Toronto. His research interests center on problems in neuropsychology and child development. He has published in excess of 400 medical and scientific articles and authored or edited eight books, including The Asymmetrical Function of the Brain, The Unity and the Diversity of the Human Brain, and Consciousness: The Brain's Private Psychological Field.

Julie Atlas Muz, Miss Exotic World and Miss Coney Island 2006, is a choreographer, actor and artist based in New York City. Muz was included in the Whitney Biennial 2004 and has performed her work all over the world. Her alter ego, Mr. Pussy was a main attraction at a show she co-curated with Kembra Pfahler at Dietch Projects, entitled Womanizer. She recently co-created and performed a new erotic version of "Beauty and the Beast" with Mat Fraser, a UK based artist with Thalidomide, at Dadafest in Liverpool.

Sabine Wilhelm is Associate Professor of Psychology at the Harvard Medical School. She is Director of the Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder and Related Disorders Program and Director of the Cognitive-Behavior Therapy Program at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. Dr. Wilhelm is internationally recognized as a leading researcher on Body Dysmorphic Disorder, a distressing preoccupation with an imagined defect in one’s appearance. She currently is the principal investigator of two studies investigating treatments for the disorder funded by the National Institute of Mental Health. She wrote the book, Feeling Good About the Way You Look: A Program for Overcoming Body Image Problems and has many other publications. Dr. Wilhelm serves on several editorial boards and regularly provides continuing education workshops nationally and internationally.

Westwood and VIA show the way

hummingwitch@gmail.com (Eva Yaa Asantewaa) — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 09:35:08 -0500

If you haven't yet had a chance, listen to my interview (click here) with emerging choreographer Adrienne Westwood of VIA Dance Collaborative. Her new work--The Dream Project: Lullaby in Surrealism--premiered last night at the Ailey Citigroup Theater and continues its run through tomorrow evening (8pm). It's a beautiful ensemble piece, inspired by the art of Rene Magritte, rich in elegant, total design and performance--which helps as some of its latter passages stretch on maybe a bit too dreamily. Westwood is a promising choreographer of delicate craft, one worth watching.

O'Connor's "Rammed Earth"

hummingwitch@gmail.com (Eva Yaa Asantewaa) — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 15:42:26 -0500

I relished the chance to return to Tere O'Connor's Rammed Earth (2007)--which I'd first experienced at The Chocolate Factory last autumn--with its dozens of chairs that, for the initial section, spread audience members throughout the performance space, each chair facing this way or that, set in its own eccentric inclination. Against the ushers' gentle suggestions, I kept my well-stuffed messenger bag (on my lap, where it would not get in the way of any dancer). And in accord with a (perhaps not so gentle) suggestion that O'Connor once offered dance critics some time ago--a suggestion I clicked with straightaway--I left my notebook and pen stowed deep in the recesses of that bag where they would not get in my way.

I remembered what it felt like to inhabit the same space as Rammed Earth, with its high-pitched, mysterious poetics and its wide-open possibilities of meaning, and these masterful dancers--Hilary Clark, Heather Olson, Matthew Rogers and Christopher Williams--so weirdly good they make my skin crawl. This time, in the Howard Gilman Performance Space at Baryshnikov Arts Center, it felt as if we, the audience, were being buffeted and shaped by those four powerful bodies and intelligences. Make that five, not four; of course, O'Connor shapes us, too, as architectural elements in his environment and as nervous systems that cannot help but fire up in such a charged setting.

More than any other, this dance explicitly reminds me that a work of dance seen more than once is never the same, that it alters and is altered by the giver and by the receiver, and that there's always more there than can be grasped on first glance or easily told. I cherish this dance without needing to figure it all out. And even those things I think I do know about it are things that I'm just as happy to silently nod at and leave alone.

See Tere O'Connor Dance in Rammed Earth, now through Sunday, with two shows per evening: 7pm and 9pm; no late seating.

Yummy baked goods at Fall for Dance

hummingwitch@gmail.com (Eva Yaa Asantewaa) — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 16:32:38 -0500

Mmmm... Some scrumptious doings at last night's Fall for Dance dance-sampler festival at City Center from Ayman Harper and Mario Zambrano of Richard Siegal/The Bakery in Siegal's The New 45, a duet premiered in 2006. It was like watching some of those Tharp-heyday performances from Sara Rudner, Shelley Washington, Rose Marie Wright...and then some. Loose, fluid, spritely physical with impulses that come from everywhere and from out of nowhere, zippy timing, an outpouring of invention and easygoing humor, and that impudent way of snuggling up to jazz and calypso. The audience roared.

Siegal will perform his solo, As If Stranger--which won Siegal and his collaborators a 2008 Bessie Award for visual design--for the opening ceremonies of EMPAC, the Experimental Media and Performing Arts Center (Troy, New York, October 9-10). I missed As If Stranger when it ran at Danspace Project this past season. After savoring The New 45, I intend to run to the next show Siegal brings to New York City.

DTW's Greco to step down

hummingwitch@gmail.com (Eva Yaa Asantewaa) — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 12:00:47 -0500

The Board of Directors of Dance Theater Workshop has named Andrea Sholler as its new Executive Director effective October 1. Stephen Greco will step down from that position and will focus on marketing and branding opportunities for cultural institutions.

Sholler served as Dance Theater Workshop’s interim Executive Director prior to Greco’s appointment in July, 2007. She most recently served as a Program Officer with the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs where she helped to administer the $27 million Cultural Development Fund.

“I have been honored and pleased to serve Dance Theater Workshop as Executive Director during a time of great change,” said Greco. “Dance Theater Workshop, like so many cultural organizations throughout New York, is looking toward new ways to promote its work and attract new audiences. I am proud of the branding work we have accomplished over the last year and look forward to continuing to help Dance Theater Workshop and other cultural institutions achieve their branding goals.”

Said Sholler, “Stephen has a brilliant marketing mind and I look forward to his continued involvement in our efforts to inform the public of Dance Theater Workshop's mission and incomparable programming. From the 1980’s, when I managed a dance company that frequently performed at Dance Theater Workshop to the incredible 2008/9 season created by Artistic Director, Carla Peterson, I have always been impressed by the amazing opportunities that this organization is able to offer a wide range of artists working to push the boundaries of movement and the meaning of dance. I am thrilled to be returning to Dance Theater Workshop and look forward to working closely with the organization's staff, board, funders, and friends, to support this unique institution and the extraordinary artists and art form it serves.”

Said Peterson, “I look forward to building a dynamic partnership with Andrea Sholler as Executive Director to ensure Dance Theater Workshop’s continuing leadership role in the field of dance and performance. In trying economic times, our holistic approach in support of artists and creative process, and in providing a platform for the lively intersection of contemporary voices that illuminate global as well as local and national issues, is more important than ever. I have full confidence that Dance Theater Workshop’s rich legacy will continue to inform a responsive and innovative future."

Live Processing with koosil-ja

hummingwitch@gmail.com (Eva Yaa Asantewaa) — Wed, 24 Sep 2008 07:31:32 -0500

A call for dancers for koosil-ja's new project:

We are looking for two dancers for our new project called Blocks of Continuality/Movement-Live Cinema. The project will employ three dancers and a team of 3D modelers, programmers, an interactive designer, and installation and sound artists.

The rehearsals will begin in January 2009. Rehearsals will be held every Tuesday and Thursday from 11 am to 5 pm at the beginning and will get more intense as the process continues. We will begin performing the work starting from the fall of 2009 and continue to perform to spring 2010.

We will dance using a performance technique called Live Processing*. The dancers will receive rehearsal fees based on an hourly rate, in addition to performance fees.

If you are a disciplined dancer who possesses strong body and mental strength and can commit to hard work for this long period, I will like to have a one-on-one session with you. I would like you to try Live Processing, no longer than an hour in our studio located in the East Village (4th Street between First and Second Avenue). Please come warmed up.

Please contact me via email dancekk@earthlink.net and specify the time that best works for you according to the following dates. The time frame for all the dates is from noon to 3 pm.

Tues Oct. 14
Thurs. Nov. 13
Thurs. Nov 20
Tues. Dec 2
Thurs Dec. 4

*About Live Processing

The dancers respond to multiple movement source materials displayed on video monitors to generate movement, neither improvising nor executing set choreography. They dance while abstracting only the movement information from the clips - freeing the movement from emotional, political, psychological, and religious attributions - and synthesizing all the sources of information as they dance.

Thank you.
