Saturday, September 13, 3-5pm: Hogarth’s Line of Beauty in Baroque Dance with Catherine Turocy

According to William Hogarth, the S-shaped curved lines signify liveliness and activity: “the waving line, which is a line more productive of beauty than any of the former, as in flowers, and other forms of the ornamental kind: for which reason we shall call it the line of beauty.” Join Catherine Turocy, decorated by the French Republic as a Chevalier for her work in historical stage practice, as she explores posture, arm gestures and positions of the hands while in the action of dancing a slow air.   Cost: $16

Location: Mark Morris Dance Center, 3 Lafayette Avenue, Brooklyn, NY

rehearsal for Court/Garden

rehearsal for Court/Garden

Thursday, October 9- Saturday, October 11: Court/Garden at St. Mark’s Danspace Project   Directed by Yanira Castro, this spectacle in 3 acts, Court/Garden, is a new dance and live music performance by a canary torsi. It takes as its inspiration the imperial ballets of Louis XIV’s French Court, the spectatorship of the proscenium stage and the presentation of video feeds as cultural, social and political frames of experience. CG delves into an operatic, spectacle-driven vocabulary to reflect on how power functions in contemporary theatrical images from the fashion runway to the creation of cultural icons.
Catherine Turocy conducted an intense workshop for the dancers and choreographer/director Yanira Castro as a kick-off for their exploration into this period. Turocy has also been acting as the historical consultant on this contemporary work and stands in admiration of the collaboration directed by Castro.
