features site-specific dance during its weekend celebration of New York City architecture and design

 

The architecturemoves program of openhousenewyork features site-specific dance during its weekend celebration of New York City architecture and design. For this 10th year anniversary, four dance events will animate New York City buildings and landscapes. Representatives from Caron Eule Dance, Dance Theatre Etcetera, Dancing in the Streets and Jon Kinzel will host a discussion about the relationship between dance and architecture with renowned architect Illya Azarof, AIA of +Lab.

 "Since the very beginning, architecturemoves has been a part of OHNY Weekend, says Margaret Sullivan, OHNY board president.  Dance gives life to the built environment and vice-versa and we are thrilled with this ongoing collaboration."  a

ArchitectureMoves events will be taking place across the city on Saturday and Sunday October 6th and 7th, 2012: from the Bronx where choreographer Joanna Haigood’s PASEO produced by Casita Maria and Dancing in the Streets will guide audiences along the South Bronx Cultural Trail, to Red Hook where Dance Theatre Etcetera will present the works of four emerging choreographers at the inaugural launch of Dance on the Greenway along IKEA’s Erie Basin Park.
