Victoria Marks
Where: Dance Place
Date: 2008-04-06 19:00:00
Type:
California based Victoria Marks creates dances for the stage, for film and in community settings with emphasis on political themes. A Guggenheim Fellow from 2005, Marks has an ongoing commitment to locate dance-making within the sphere of political meaning. Her new work Not About Iraq investigates how dancing conjures meaning and speaks about our experience. The evening includes pieces about dancing, about the body and the mind, and the way dancing strikes metaphors about vitality, impermanence, beginnings and endings. Support is provided by the Mid Atlantic Arts Foundation, This project is made possible in part by a grant from the National Performance Network’s Performance Residency Program. Major contributors of the National Performance Network include the Doris Duke Charitable Foundation, Ford Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts (a federal agency), Altria and the Nathan Cummings Foundation. The National Performance Network is a group of cultural organizers and artists facilitating the practice and public experience of the performing arts in the United States. The NPN serves artists, arts organizers, and a broad range of audiences and communities across the country through commissions, residencies, culture-centered community projects and other artistic activities.
