Allyson Green returns to the Museum with a program of four new works that explore the relationship of
performance, visual art, and new media.
Inside the auditorium audiences will experience:
"Abandon," a new duet for Green with New York dancer Monica Bill Barnes, with video projections of light installations
created by Peter Terezakis in the Anza Borrego Desert.
"Flower," a poetic synthesis of dance-theater by Green, video-dance by new media/performance artist Heather Raikes,
and new music by the quartet soNu.
"Recordar," a work on the plight of refugees, created for dancers of the Lux Boreal Dance Company
in Tijuana, Mexico
In an installation environment created outside in the May S. Marcy Sculpture Garden, audiences will experience:
"Heart Beats Light," a cybernetic light sculpture created by visual artist Peter Terezakis, accompanied by an evocative
site-specific dance created by Green for eight dancers, and a sound score by British composer Alan Stones.
"Heart Beats Light" has its genesis in Jean Dupuy's seminal 1968 Art and Technology sculpture, Heart Beats Dust.
Temperatures may be cool outdoors, please dress warmly for the second half.
