INVISIBLE/VISIBLE

June 14-17, 2012 @ 8pm

INVISIBLE/VISIBLE, a dance and digital media project, follows the works of French Philosopher Gilles Deleuze. The movement oscillates in and out of the space and the bodies of dancers Melissa Guerrero, Elise Knudson, Astonkyle McCullough, Emily Moore, and Alice MacDonald.

READINGS FROM HIS WORK

December 4, 2011

Featuring Jim Fletcher, Ari Fliakos, Modesto Jimenez, Sibyl Kempson, Chris Kraus, Scott Shepherd, Kate Valk, and more.

Erje Ayden is a Turk who writes in English. He has lived in New York since the ’50s. His published works include the underground bestseller The Crazy Green of Second Avenue; Sadness at Leaving, the espionage novel English critics called a masterpiece; The Summer Frank O’Hara Died; and his recent collection of short stories, A Lost Cloud.
