"Bebe Miller is a cartographer of human emotions; mapping the landscape of the passions of her dance with luminous intelligence." (The Washington Post)
FRIDAY, AUGUST 6:
Cathie Caraker (CA/Netherlands) | Martha Eddy (NY) | Karl Frost (CA) | Guggenheim recipient Miguel Gutierrez (NY) | Nina Martin (TX) | Local favorites Louis Gervais | Aiko Kinoshita | Degenerate Art Ensemble Co-Director Haruko Nishimura | Aaron Swartzman | Alia Swersky

"I make performances that are about things and are things themselves. The things they are about are big: how to live in the world, how to love, how to feel about being yourself. Probably the biggest question I make art about is: why are we alive. I am a dancer. I write poems. I make songs and music with my voice and rudimentary knowledge of instruments. I think that we are all powerful people." (Miguel Gutierrez)
Schedule subject to change.
