ExhibitionCurated by Robin Poitras and assisted by Ashley Johnson, the Remembering Amelia exhibit is conceived as a site-specific ‘virtual dance studio’. This space includes a display of Amelia’s drawings depicting her bodywork ideas installed alongside select film and video, including documentary footage that is carefully drawn and presented from Amelia’s life-work: 30 years of dance-inspired body teachings.
|
GatheringInterviews and conversations with artists, practitioners and students in each of the touring cities compliment the screenings. At each site exhibition site, Robin and Ashley conduct public conversations about Amelia’s work, lead workshops, classes and private sessions and perform along with key partners in studio dance performances, influenced by Amelia’s teachings. Visitors will have an opportunity to explore the virtual studio, workshop, performance and public dialogues in order to consider Amelia’s ideas as proposed through her unique practice.
