The Future is Bright and Wide Open at Pacific Northwest Ballet's Newest Emergence!

Image
  Pacific Northwest Ballet company dancers in Crystal Pite's Emergence, which PNB is presenting on a mixed-bill with works by Jerome Robbins, Marco Goecke, and Price Suddarth, onstage at Seattle Center's McCaw Hall March 14 - 23 (and streaming for digital subscribers March 27 - 31.) For tickets and information, contact the PNB Box Office, 206.441.2424 or PNB.org. Photo (c) Angela Sterling. Sometimes the whole of something can be very different than the sum of its parts and sometimes a ballet can read very differently than the intentions of the artists and choreographers of the works presented.

An Interview with Prague Performance Artist Darina Alster: Eastern European Speculative Feminism, Performance and the Velvet Revolution!

Image
This month, CoCA (Center on Contemporary Art) and Peter Bill are presenting the work of Prague, Czech Republic performance artist and Art Star, Darina Alster, whose work deals with magic, feminism, post humanism.  Her performance packs a feminist punch that if you ever get a chance to see it will leave you forever changed.  Here is an interview that I had with the amazing post postmodern artist! Xavier: I would like to focus on your history, goals, feminism and posthumanism. And how you came up to Seattle! Peter says you have a huge following in Prague. Peter says you have a huge following in Prague. Peter Bill:  Darina is a Praha (Prague) Art Star.

Photo © Lindsay Thomas. ___________________________________________ That's great! It starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes. An aeroplane. Lenny Bruce is not afraid. Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn. World serves its own needs, don't misserve your own needs. Speed it up a notch, speak, grunt, no strength The ladders start to clatter with fear fight, down, height Wire in a fire, representing seven games. And a government for hire and a combat site. Left of west and coming in a hurry with the Furies Breathing down your neck. Team by team, reporters baffled, trumped, tethered, cropped. Look at that low plane, fine, then! Uh-oh, overflow, population, common food But it'll do, save yourself, serve yourself World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed Tell me with the rapture and the reverent in the r...
