Choreographer and performance artist Merián Soto and director, puppet artist, and choreographer Patti Bradshaw discuss their time studying with and dancing the work of Elaine Summers.

Borrowing from the collection of Summers's materials held at the Library for the Performing Arts, they will show clips from her film archive, including unique footage from her classes.


Alexandra Ogsbury, longtime dancer of Elaine's company from the early '70s, certified Master Teacher of Kinetic Awareness®, massage therapist, and Chinese Martial Arts teacher, was interviewed for this conversation.


For those of us who are working on the Elaine Summers Legacy Project this event is a special gem, as we are getting ready to interview the Second Generation, including Merián and Patti.

After registration, the Zoom webinar link will be emailed two days prior to the event, with reminders on the day.

 
Looking forward to see you soon,
wherever you are around the globe!
