To mark the closure of her 2024 Studio Residency, choreographer Sarah Michelson will host a meeting with other members of the New York dance community. This program, taking place in the Museum’s Sculpture Garden, will focus on internal practices and resulting manifestations.
Born in Manchester, England, and based in New York since the 1990s, Michelson has created performances that examine the nature of dance as a discipline through its historical, physical, and intellectual rigor. Often her modus operandi expands to include the voices of her peers. Joined by Oren Barnoy, mayfield brooks, Leslie Cuyjet, Moriah Evans, Jonathan Gonzalez, Seta Morton, Gillian Walsh, and Stevfni.XYZ, Michelson and the group will address their respective practices, exploring ideas of process and context.
The event is included with Museum admission, and no separate ticket is required. Please note that capacity is limited, on a first-come, first-served basis.
In the event of inclement weather, the event will take place on Floor 4 in Gallery 400.
Organized by Ana Janevski, Curator, and Martha Joseph, Associate Curator, Department of Media and Performance. Produced by Kate Scherer, Senior Manager and Producer, with Olivia Rousey, Assistant Performance Coordinator, Performance and Live Programs.
Major support for the exhibition is provided by the Sarah Arison Endowment Fund for Performance and by the Wallis Annenberg Director's Fund for Innovation in Contemporary Art.
