Fall Movement

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.

<h1>Fall Movement</h1><h1>MOLLY&amp;NOLA, Sadi Mosko, Jessica Nicoll and Barry Oreck, Kalliope Piersol, and Valerius Productions</h1>Tickets: $0 - $25, pay what you canThis program will take place in-person at CPR. Unfortunately, we will no longer be live-streaming this event.Fall Movement is part of CPR&#x27;s bi-annual festival of new work, returning after an 18-month hiatus after Spring Movement in April 2020 was canceled. Five artists will return to revisit their work.MOLLY&amp;NOLA: STEERSTEER tumbles into unforeseen territory where livestock auctioneering, cloning, and a brief dalliance with the Pentecostal Church collide.Sadi Mosko: TectonicTectonic started as a series of improvisational dance videos filmed in various natural landscapes. The piece coalesces movement from those videos and uses it to explore the concept of sustainability. Tectonic examines the cyclic systems that sustain Earth and questions how humanity fits into them. When does objective ecological science turn into expressive human interaction, and how can those two aspects of life coexist?Jessica Nicoll and Barry Oreck: The Crabbit Wee Tailors of Forfar (excerpt)In their new work-in-progress, The Crabbit Wee Tailors of Forfar, Jessica Nicoll and Barry Oreck explore the resilience and decay of wood, paper, and flesh. In attempting to tailor their world — fitting, fixing, patching — they struggle to resolve things that cannot be resolved.Kalliope Piersol: New BusinessNew Business is a reformatting of movements made long ago that still somehow linger.Valerius Productions: [ey-vis]Inspired by the Greek mythological story of Icarus, [ey-vis] explores this story through a feminine lens. The choreography is derived from stereotypical feminine movement qualities such as delicacy, subtlety, and intricacy in order to display an overwhelming image of power. This juxtaposition challenges the weakness associated with femininity and illuminates the neglected strength of each individual.Selected by a peer artist panel through an open call, Spring Movement 2020 was originally curated by Nicole Loeffler-Gladstone, Annie Wang, and Cyrah Ward, and featured Oluwadamiare (Dare) Ayorinde, MOLLY&amp;NOLA, Jessica Nicoll &amp; Laura K. Nicoll, Sadi Mosko, Kalliope Piersol, and Valerius Productions.VISITING CPRIn accordance with the NYC mandate, documentation showing proof of full vaccination against Covid-19 (at least 14 days after final dose) will be required to enter CPR.
