Framed Movements
Framed Movements investigates the potential that lies at the shifting boundaries between dance and art.
Exploring the many ways a movement based approach to the occupation of time and space is practiced not only in dance but increasingly in the realm of contemporary art, the exhibition brings together a series of Australian and international artists who use a choreographic approach in their work.
Curated by ACCA Associate Curator Hannah Mathews, the exhibition considers how choreographic tools, such as devised movement, sequencing, notation, improvisation and scores, are now employed by artists to emphasise the materiality of movement.
A series of performances will accompany the exhibition, drawing our attention to the potential of the body in space and its ability to draw us into a physical conversation with the world around us.
A highlight is the Australian premiere of New York performance artist Maria Hassabi鈥檚 hypnotizing Intermission, first performed at the combined Cypriot/Lithuanian Pavilion at the 2013 Venice Biennale, and an eight hour installation of sculptural movements and physical endurance.
