Janis Brenner has often paid tribute to her mentors and the artists who've inspired her. Now 92Y asks her to switch direction and present artists whom she has mentored.
Kyla Barkin & Aaron Selissen, as long-time members of Brenner's company, will perform an excerpt from Reflexive in the Fridays at Noon performance as well as the Friday 8 pm show.
Fridays at Noon program will also feature works by Kun-Yang Lin and Helena Franzén. Saturday night's program will include Wait by Lilja Ruriksdottir & Sunday's will include Helena Franzén's Trigger Point.
For all four performances Brenner contributes the premiere of Where-How-Why Trilogy which consists of three solos, danced by Esme Boyce, Sumaya Jackson and Brenner herself. Additionally, in the three evening programs, Brenner's company will perform The Mind-Stuff Variations featuring live music by Jerome Begin.
This October Kyla will be heading to Berlin, Germany to create a new work for 14 dancers at the Tanzakademie Balance, 1. We'll keep you updated with rehearsal clips and photos on our Facebook page !
Completed in early July, Concrete Illusion is a short dance film created from concept to final product in seven days. It will premiere as part of Sally Taylor's multidisciplinary, multi-sensory global arts initiative, ConSenses, in 2014...stay tuned for more!
