DANCE

The Lucinda Childs Dance Company tours this groundbreaking collaboration from 1979, between three influential figures in minimalism; Lucinda Childs, Sol LeWitt, and Philip Glass. The Guardian called the piece “one of the blindingly seminal collaborations of its era.” The work, both unyielding and restrained, was an important marker in each of the collaborators’ repertoires.

 LUCINDA CHILDS returns to the stage in her evening of Four New Works. These are first pieces developed in almost a decade with the Lucinda Childs Dance Company, and feature artistic collaborations with three outstanding artists from visual arts and music.

Actus, a mirrored duet set to the cantata “Actus Tragicus” by Johann Sebastian Bach.

Geranium ’64, a new adaptation of an original solo from 1965 titled is performed by Lucinda Childs herself. The solo continues Childs’ prolific collaborative record with video work by the renowned visual artist Anri Sala and features a 40’ projection wall.

Timeline, a new creation for seven dancers to unreleased music by the Icelandic composer, cellist and Academy Award Winner Hildur Guðnadóttir.

Distant Figure is a new choreographic work for six dancers with music by Philip Glass, accompanied live by Russian star-pianist Anton Batagov, who will plays the 2017 composition that Glass wrote for his long-standing artistic partner Lucinda Childs.
