Baryshnikov Arts premieres "jakob & imani" by choreographer Imani Gaudin & visual artist Jakob Vitale (FREE)
Company:
Baryshnikov Arts
With support from the Hudson Yards Hell’s Kitchen Alliance, Baryshnikov Arts will premiere jakob & imani, a performance art piece created by choreographer Imani Gaudin and visual artist Jakob Vitale. Exploring the symbiotic relationship between graffiti and contemporary dance, this site-specific work will investigate how movement shapes the perceived meaning of graffiti art, and conversely, how the visual elements of graffiti influence the dancer’s physical expression. Through improvisation and audience interaction, jakob & imani will use the large open space of Bella Abzug Park as the location for exploration around a central graffiti mural.
This performance will take place throughout the day of October 3, 2024, and will be presented free of charge.
