New
England Choreographers Project: Disappearing WomanAn
informal showing by New England Regional Dance Development Initiative
artists Nell Breyer, Alissa Cardone, Lorraine Chapman, and Bronwen
MacArthur
Saturday, August 22nd, 2009 - 8PM
Choreographer/media artist Nell Breyer, and
dancers/choreographers Alissa Cardone, Lorraine Chapman and Bronwen
MacArthur collaborated to create a new work that is a natural extension
of an artistic exchange that took place during a New England Foundation
for the Arts Regional Dance Development Initiative. The work addresses
the anxieties of three women in an increasingly dispersed, high-speed,
distributed culture, while exploring the crossover between each
artist's individual movement language, media and aesthetics. The
artists use the metaphor of digital media as an enveloping, inescapable
extension of the body itself. The Disappearing Woman was developed
over residencies at Summer Stages Dance, the Baryshnikov Arts Center,
and Vermont Performance Lab / Marlboro College.
