Dance Discourse Project #12
Shifting ground: examining the complex terrain at the intersection of dance and aging
Featuring Panelists - Petra Kuppers, Jess Curtis and Dr. Albirda Rose - moderated by Mary Armentrout and Jessica Robinson Love.
Aging is an unavoidable part of life, and its effects on the body pose issues for body-based performers earlier than for many people. In the not so distant past, it seemed as if only humans aged 17 to 32 could show up on Western concert dance stages. Recent blurring of disciplinary boundaries, and aesthetic and cultural innovations embracing diversity have made more room for aging bodies in the contemporary performance space. DDP12 will examine some of the causes, effects, opportunities and complications of this shift, and then open the discussion up world cafe style to include the audience in this investigation.
Presented in conjunction with Gravity's presentation of The Generation Project Episode 2: Jess Meets Angus. Monday February 27, 7PM at CounterPULSE For more information, visit counterpulse.org
