American Dance Festival
Vertigo

The sets were simple and beautifully lit, the movements were fresh and the costumes beautiful.  There was never a moment that I wasn't mesmerized and involved.  I paid particular attention to how the costumes draped the body-some parts fitted and others flowing. Everything seemed to speak of community and the importance of relationships.  Spectacular evening!

Well I certainly have been away from this for a long time!

Last night I went to the opening at Hanes gallery at UNC for the first year grad students. I suspect it was for painting and sculpture. It was interesting to see this first show so soon after these artists have begun school. Process was so evident as an important part of their musings. The artists were there to talk and get feedback and I am sure it was helpful to them as it was to me. There was great energy and it will be fun to watch these young turks as they progress through the program.
