@CPR | Doron Perk: BALIGAM workshop + performance @ 1PM

CPR – Center for Performance Research is dedicated to supporting artists in the development of new work in contemporary dance and performance. CPR focuses its activities in three key areas: creative and professional development support; providing affordable space for artists; and public programming. Curated and open-call programs focus on providing artists with rehearsal, residency, and performance support, which generates time and space for research and dialogue, and creates opportunities to share work in a variety of contexts. CPR’s subsidized space rental program helps to ensure that artists can access CPR’s flexible studios and performance space at affordable rates to create and share their work. By presenting work to the public through performances, work-in-progress showings, salon-style discussions, exhibitions, and festivals, CPR exposes local audiences and its community to contemporary artistic practice and process.

A 50-minute workshop will focus on personal creativity and improvisation, listening to our bodies, allowing ourselves to move spontaneously, and using dance as a tool for communication. A 20-minute performance will present how these elements come together in choreography and provide a window for the audience to reflect on what they have experienced in their bodies just a moment ago. BALIGAM translates from hebrew to “I also want” and aims to provide new tools for anyone, no experience required, to enjoy dance.Doron Perk is an Israeli dance artist living in Brooklyn, NY.
