TRUTH AND BEAUTY

From my dear friend and fellow dance partner, Bea:

This is an amazing FREE performance being put on at a wonderful space. The artists that have come together are very passionate and excited about this work. The dance is very simple yet complex. It requires perfect presence and commitment from the performers while being engaged in a structure. 

I am very excited and honored to be sharing in this dance choreographed by Ellen Davis that is a Variation on Sonakinetography #3 by visual artist Channa Horwitz. The dance in its simplicity is teaching me about complete focus and attention to each and every moment. Its a gift to engage with a work that has absolute presence within in. I translate my commitment to the dance into a commitment to life. 

So please come and experience this performance on a Monday night right by the ocean and again its FREE! Tell your friends and explore the arts and find the intersection between visual arts, music and the moving body.

The theory behind my work is that if structure plays out long enough, it will appear to be chance. It won‘t be chance, it will only appear to be chance. My life flows as all things in the universe flow, in a cyclical or circular manner. It is as in Lobachevskian geometry, the continuum meets itself in space. The beginning and ending are only one step away from each other. There is no beginning and ending … in the universe. To live for all time, is to live now. My life‘s duration is all time…
- Channa Horwitz
The evening will include a performance of Poem Opera for 8 and two interpretations of Horwitz’s Sonakinetography #3, one for a dance and light show choreographed by Horwitz’s daughter Ellen Davis, and one by percussionist Corey Fogel.
