A standing round of applause for the gifted, generous artistes of the 50th Anniversary of the Walker Art Center’s Choreographer’s Evening!
This 50th Anniversary was special, with a toast and celebration of all those who contributed to maintaining and growing the program for half a century!
Judith and I were moved by every, single, performance!
It was good to present and experience as an audience member a level of depth of commitment to rigour and integrity in performance. It felt good to see and experience dance artists fly through borders of time but still maintain grounded ness in themselves.
To my amazing colleague, Judith Howard, I love you. It was easy, pleasurable, rigorous and inspiring working with you!
Thank you to Phillip Bither and Julie Voigt for personally inviting me to the curator’s table this year. For trusting me and giving me this great honour!
And lastly, thank you to Ms. Judith Brin Ingber for her CONSTANT love and support from Day One and for being such a gift to us all!
