Reciprocities: Making and Supporting Dance between France and the US
October 26–27, 10am–4:30pm
How do we sustain a practice of global exchange in dance at a time of climate and funding crisis; a time marked by social inequities and cultural upheavals? What are the privileges and abundances, the tools and creative resources that can be shared and imagined in common?
This two-day event will include roundtables with industry experts and opportunities for one-on-one dialogues with artists on topics including dance residencies, pedagogy as performance, transmission, curatorial ecologies, and more.
The professional symposium, curated by Noémie Solomon with the support of an Advisory Committee and the Villa Albertine team, is free and open to students, culture professionals, and anyone interested in the world of dance and live arts.
Participants include: Tanguy Accart, Philip Bither, Linda Hayford, Judy Hussie-Taylor, Emmanuelle Huynh, Serge Laurent, Joshua Lubin Levy, Angela Mattox, Edgar Miramontes, Rachid Ouramdane, Dorothée Munyaneza, Linda Murray, Will Rawls, Noé Soulier, David Hamilton Thomson, Catherine Tsekenis, Marýa Wethers, Tara Aisha Willis, and Janet Wong.
