Founded as a collaborative think tank, VIM brings together innovative and profoundly gifted artists from around the world to create original, cutting edge, dance theater creations. Interdisciplinary by nature, VIM\u2019s research calls upon whole performers to activate unstable universes where conscious reality collides with dream space and characters rise and fall in virtuosic action, often using cinematic approaches to light, sound, and time to amplify the uncanny experience of each work. Since its founding in 2015, the company has created five evening length shows (SEPARATI, 2016), (FUTURE PERFECT, 2017), (FOREVER, 2019), (TOGETHER IS CLOSE ENOUGH, 2021), (PUNCH LINE, 2023), seven half-evening works, and received over thirty commissions with professional companies and universities across the USA, Canada, Central America, South America and Europe. In tandem with building new works, VIM established an education platform in 2015, dedicated to supporting the professional lives of artists of all ages with ongoing classes, workshops, and annual intensives. In 2023\/24 VIM will teach and create new work for the b12 festival in Berlin, Henny Jurri\u00ebns inAmsterdam, and the Arthur Miller Theatre in Ann Arbor, Michigan. <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/vimvigordance.com\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Learn more\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/p>\r\n<h5><\/h5>\r\n\r\n<p>Photo credit: Kirk Donaldson<\/p>","excerpt":"<p>The 2023-2024 Performance Season opens with the Gibney debut of celebrated physical dance theater company VIM VIGOR and the NYC premiere of PUNCHLINE, a living landscape where three performers traverse the space between comedy and death.<\/p>","slug":"gibney-presents-vim-vigor","image":{"url":"https:\/\/gibneydance.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Copy-of-20230826_VimVigor_DSC7264.jpg","id":59822,"extension":"jpg","width":1240,"height":827,"filesize":386666,"sizes":{"medium":{"width":700,"height":467,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":44224,"url":"https:\/\/gibneydance.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Copy-of-20230826_VimVigor_DSC7264-700x467.jpg"},"large":{"width":1200,"height":800,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":86457,"url":"https:\/\/gibneydance.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Copy-of-20230826_VimVigor_DSC7264-1200x800.jpg"},"thumbnail":{"width":350,"height":350,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":29575,"url":"https:\/\/gibneydance.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Copy-of-20230826_VimVigor_DSC7264-350x350.jpg"},"medium_large":{"width":768,"height":512,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":48708,"url":"https:\/\/gibneydance.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Copy-of-20230826_VimVigor_DSC7264-768x512.jpg"},"event-thumbnail":{"width":765,"height":368,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":42364,"url":"https:\/\/gibneydance.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Copy-of-20230826_VimVigor_DSC7264-765x368.jpg"},"staff-thumbnail":{"width":500,"height":500,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":42461,"url":"https:\/\/gibneydance.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Copy-of-20230826_VimVigor_DSC7264-500x500.jpg"},"16:9":{"width":1200,"height":675,"mime-type":"image\/jpeg","filesize":78235,"url":"https:\/\/gibneydance.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Copy-of-20230826_VimVigor_DSC7264-1200x675.jpg"}}},"all_day":false,"start_date":"2023-09-28 19:30:00","start_date_details":{"year":"2023","month":"09","day":"28","hour":"19","minutes":"30","seconds":"00"},"end_date":"2023-09-28 19:30:00","end_date_details":{"year":"2023","month":"09","day":"28","hour":"19","minutes":"30","seconds":"00"},"utc_start_date":"2023-09-28 23:30:00","utc_start_date_details":{"year":"2023","month":"09","day":"28","hour":"23","minutes":"30","seconds":"00"},"utc_end_date":"2023-09-28 23:30:00","utc_end_date_details":{"year":"2023","month":"09","day":"28","hour":"23","minutes":"30","seconds":"00"},"timezone":"America\/New_York","timezone_abbr":"EDT","cost":"","cost_details":{"currency_symbol":"","currency_code":"","currency_position":"prefix","values":[]},"website":"https:\/\/gibney.my.salesforce-sites.com\/ticket\/#\/events\/a0S8W00000fXnjkUAC","show_map":false,"show_map_link":false,"hide_from_listings":false,"sticky":false,"featured":false,"categories":[{"name":"Performances","slug":"performances","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":2,"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","description":"","parent":0,"count":326,"filter":"raw","term_order":"0","id":2,"urls":{"self":"https:\/\/gibneydance.org\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories\/2","collection":"https:\/\/gibneydance.org\/wp-json\/tribe\/events\/v1\/categories"}}],"tags":[],"venue":[],"organizer":[],"json_ld":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org","@type":"Event","name":"Gibney Presents: VIM VIGOR","description":"&lt;p&gt;The 2023-2024 Performance Season opens with the Gibney debut of celebrated physical dance theater company VIM VIGOR and the NYC premiere of PUNCHLINE, a living landscape where three performers traverse the space between comedy and death.&lt;\/p&gt;\\n","image":"https:\/\/gibneydance.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Copy-of-20230826_VimVigor_DSC7264.jpg","url":"https:\/\/gibneydance.org\/event\/gibney-presents-vim-vigor\/2023-09-28\/","eventAttendanceMode":"https:\/\/schema.org\/OfflineEventAttendanceMode","eventStatus":"https:\/\/schema.org\/EventScheduled","startDate":"2023-09-28T19:30:00-04:00","endDate":"2023-09-28T19:30:00-04:00","performer":"Organization"}}
