Installation III: red green blue & grey

Work-in-Progress showing presented by Baryshnikov Arts Center on September 27, 2019

Installation III: red green blue & grey (Work-in-Progress) demonstrates a new phase in Liz Gerring’s exploration of physical effort and its innate capacity to provide meaning. This new work introduces for the first time an elasticity in the choreographic structure, with dancers bringing moments of spontaneity and surprise and revealing their distinctive qualities. Sound design by Ryan Seaton.
