Skewl @ The Floor on Atlantic

This class is about experimenting with our moving bodies—through choreography and improvisation—in relation to language, sound, and objects, especially the everyday things that hang around our houses and lives. How can we repurpose this stuff of our daily life to serve our bodies’ expression? I’ll share ideas and methods from my own practice. You are welcome to bring along any texts or objects that interest you these days. 

PROCESS classes explore dance in all its forms – from choreographic practice to sound/video design to somatic training. This class is about the whole craft of choreographic production as opposed to the body in space alone.

Artist-scholar Chloë Bass reviews Restagings No. 1: Choreographing LeWitt for Women & Performance: a journal of feminist theory

"Watching Abigail Levine dance/draw the 3744 lines making up Sol Lewitt's “Wall Drawing 56,” I was struck by the feeling that I was in a training camp for something essential toward fixing the present moment..."

In addition to their more conventional roles, musicians can (and do) move, dancers can (and do) make sound. From at least Fluxus onward, this awareness has informed seminal works of experimental music and dance. Professor of Music Michael Pisaro and guest artist Abigail Levine propose a series of workshops—open to students across the institute—that address this (becoming) artist, culminating in an informal performance.

Levine will be in residence at the MacDowell Colony for December 2018 to work on Restagings No. 3 and a new evening-length work for premier at The Chocolate Factory Theater.
