EAGLE EYES: March/April 2012 EAGLE EYES Photography course March 25 - April 29, 2012 Various locations / Salt Lake City EAGLE EYES is a multi-week youth photography course based on the teaching style of American avant-garde composer John Cage. Taught by area photographers Erik Daenitz, Joe Engar, and Michael Friberg, this new initiative by DTC aims to offer highly unique creative experiences to Salt Lake City youth free of charge while simultaneously offering a valuable paid teaching opportunity to local artists that allows them freedom in course design and encourages rediscovery of their chosen medium through inspired instruction. This program is made possible with funding support from the Salt Lake City Arts Council. The spring 2012 course is now full. To be put on the waiting list or obtain more information about future EAGLE EYES courses please send an email to info@dancetheatrecoalition.org HOLOTYPE: February 2012 - 2013 HOLOTYPE Sculpture February 2012 - 2013 The Leonardo Museum Opening Event February 4th, 2012 Commissioned by The Leonardo Museum for their grand opening, HOLOTYPE is an architectural sculpture conceived and designed by Amy Caron. Known for her inventive approach to art+science work, Caron’s HOLOTYPE is an enormous biomorphic tribute algae - one of the most underrated yet surprisingly crucial and dynamic organisms on earth. This sculpture unapologetically breaks the slimy, smelly green stigma of algae with a sophisticated conceptual blend of steel rebar, alluring organic forms, and light refracting translucence. HOLOTYPE grows madly over the museum’s tremendous atrium in every direction and through its sheer size echos the remarkable impact of algae on our supplies of oxygen and food and highlights its potential as a multi-use resource. HOME MADE: October 20 - 22, 2011 HOME MADE Performance/Multimedia by tEEth Performance October 20 - 22, 2011 All shows 8pm Rose Wagner Black Box Tickets: Arttix 801-355-ARTS Press Article Performance/multimedia by tEEth Performance out of Portland, OR. Creative duo Angelle Herbert (U of U graduate) and Phillip Kraft (Salt Lake City native) present their newest work HOME MADE, an abstract look at the tumult of relationship. Incorporating two dancers, two live vocalists, live feed video, and an original score, HOME MADE is a tender, shocking, and exploratory venture into the questions of singular and plural identity asking at what point in a relationship you become “we” rather than “I”? As with most relationships there is confusion, anger, sensitivity, and nudity. tEEth isn’t a dance company - it’s a dream machine. Don’t miss the Salt Lake City debut of tEETh Performance. Oregonian Review "The best scenes find the pair locked in thrall or provocation, cocooning themselves in a slow dance, tenderly or desperately suckling appendages, clenching in a claws-bared tango of intractable holds. Love in a nutshell: a stylized dance of want and rejection." - The Oregonian Review on HOME MADE by tEEth WAVES OF MU: September 16 - October 8, 2011 WAVES OF MU Performance/installation September 16 - October 8, 2011 University of Utah sponsored by: University of Utah Health Care Clinical Neurosciences Center and College of Fine Arts **Sold out run, added dates!** Ticket information & gallery hours Press Article Blog Write-up Installation/performance by Amy Caron. WAVES OF MU incorporates visual art by Caron and over fifteen collaborators plus a cast of seven performers. Created in close collaboration with three world renowned neuroscientists and inspired by a scientific essay by researcher V.S. Ramachandran, WAVES OF MU investigates neuroscience and the controversial discovery of mirror neurons. A deeply layered work, Waves of Mu winks and nods to hard science and provides an experiential understanding of complex issues surrounding scientific process, mind/behavior connections, and the mysterious draw of what we do not know about ourselves by turning our gaze toward the vast frontier of neuroscience. Video, movement, theater, social devices, and a full-sensory installation build the frame for this twisted lab/lecture/experiment. “ Caron serves as a master of ceremonies, of sorts--a mad scientist pixie holding a clipboard in a white lab coat directing her 'research' team with casual mock-efficiency while running through a variety of low-tech laboratory shennanigans. The experience collects as a humorous, stimulating, informative, and unusual piece of theater that redefines our perceptions of perception itself and shines a new light into the dark convolutions of our least understood organ.” - Mark Muro, KSKA public radio *Co-commissioned by Dance Theatre Coalition, Performance Space 122 (NYC), and National Performance Network.
