National Sawdust: Kyle Abraham, A.I.M, & Jlin
Free
Choreographer and MacArthur Fellow Kyle Abraham and pioneering producer Jlin have come together to create a new commission exploring death, folklore, and reincarnation through a reimagining of W.A. Mozart’s Requiem in D minor. While Abraham’s work is typically performed in proscenium, for FERUS he has reconceptualized an excerpt from an evening length work, exploring abstracted movement for the digital landscape. The duet features Keerati Jinakunwiphat and Jae Neal from A.I.M by Kyle Abraham, costumed by highly noted designer Giles Deacon with musical excerpts by producer Jlin. Choreography created in collaboration with A.I.M dancers Keerati Jinakunwiphat and Jae Neal. A short live discussion with the artists will follow the screening.
The broadcast will take place at 3pm Eastern / 12pm Pacific.
