Trisha Brown Dance Company. In Plain Sight

 

 

PERFORMANCES IN THE MUSEUM'S EXHIBITION SPACES

Following its tour of the United States, the Trisha Brown Dance Company (TBDC) premieres itsEarly Works repertoire in Spain at the University of Navarra Museum. The prolific choreographer, artistic director, painter, and dancer, born in Washington 77 years ago, is one of the great references in postmodern dance. Her research into physical movement in the 1960s challenged existing perceptions of performance, and her work has revolutionized contemporary dance, changing it forever. Her work has been recognized and awarded worldwide and is currently featured in the programs of major cultural institutions in New York, Paris, London, and other theaters around the world.

 

IN PLAIN SIGHT

In Plain Site, TBDC's new performance model, stems from the desire to free the movements created by Brown in the 1960s and 1970s from the constraints of a conventional stage so that they can once again be presented in more unexpected venues. Unlike his previous performances, also created for specific spaces, In Plain Site draws material from his vast repertoire to recombine it and create a program that suits the spatial needs of the performance venue.

This is a very special opportunity to observe the creative process from a new perspective and enjoy a program created specifically for the exhibition corridors of the University of Navarra Museum. TBDC's intention is to create an intimate dialogue with the audience, the space chosen for the performance, and its architectural characteristics, as well as to provide a new multigenerational lens through which to view Trisha Brown's vast legacy.

Price: €18

In “Trisha Brown: In Plain Site,” the audience experiences Brown’s work from a fresh perspective with programs curated to spaces.
 
The material Brown used in her creative process, along with the Early Works and Equipment Pieces, is reframed and released from the proscenium, creating an intimate relationship with the audience. These assembled site-specific programs provide a new lens through which to view Brown's vast body of work, demystifying its complexity through special dialogue and audience intimacy.
 
The partnership between the Presenter, our Associate Artistic Directors, the Dancers, and the Audiences becomes a collective team empowering and expanding the multi-generational response to the timeless rigor of Brown's legacy.
