About The Event

Experience the groundbreaking synthesis of a multiplicity of cultures and genres with MOVEMENT, an electrifying performance by acclaimed choreographer Netta Yerushalmy. Witness over one hundred dance citations woven together into a radical quilt, challenging their boundaries until their pluralistic vision nearly bursts.

MOVEMENT is a continuation of Yerushamly’s ongoing practice of repurposing, reorienting, and re-contextualizing dance, spinning fragments of seemingly unrelated works into an enthralling new whole. This maximalist performance shines light on dance as an inevitable and unifying force in a brittle and confused world.

The performance features a new score by award-winning composer Paula Matthusen and is performed by dancers hailing from Korea, Senegal, Taiwan, and across the USA.

About The Organizer

NYU Skirball holds close James Baldwin’s dictum that “artists are here to disturb the peace.” Our mission is to present adventuresome, transdisciplinary work that inspires yet frustrates, confirms yet confounds, entertains yet upends. We proudly embrace renegade artists who surprise, productions that blur aesthetic boundaries, and thought leaders who are courageous, outrageous, and mind-blowing. We are NYU’s largest classroom. We want to feed your head.
