DOUBLEPLUS:\u00a0 FANA FRASER + BURR JOHNSON<\/b>
\n<\/b>CURATED BY KIMBERLY BARTOSIK<\/span><\/b><\/h3>\n
DEC 13 – 15 AT 8:00 PM
\nTHE THEATER
\nGIBNEY 280 BROADWAY
\n$15 – $20<\/h5>\n

DoublePlus embraces the artist-as-curator format to present three split-bill evenings featuring artists deserving of new or wider visibility, each curated by an established artist. The 2018 series is curated by Alice Sheppard<\/b>, <\/span>Kimberly Bartosik<\/b>, and <\/span>Kota Yamazaki. <\/b><\/p>\n

Fana Fraser<\/b>
\n<\/b>BBB<\/i><\/b>
\n<\/span><\/i>Fana Fraser presents <\/span>BBB,<\/span><\/i> a new solo performance work-in-process. <\/span>BBB<\/span><\/i> is many things: a bloody bloody bay, a brave bitter birth, a beautiful bellowing beast. <\/span>BBB<\/span><\/i> blends underbelly tempos of the Caribbean, conjuring a fantastic world of desire, scrambled objects, and remnants of a brutal colonial history. With stillness and mania,<\/span> BBB<\/span><\/i> is a new word for revenge. <\/span>BBB<\/span><\/i> is a new formula for power. <\/span><\/p>\n

Burr Johnson<\/b>
\n<\/i><\/b>Chimera
\n<\/i><\/b>Chimera<\/i><\/b> emerges as a study on the textures of movement, the interplay between expressionism and formalism, and the subversion of expectations. The dancers seek new worlds by interrogating and reimagining various entrenched dichotomies\u2014natural\/artificial, female\/male, human\/animal, static\/moving, and passive\/active by way of intense physical rigor, pedestrian task-based actions, and dynamic partnering. As a painter uses chiaroscuro to transform two-dimensional surfaces, the juxtaposition of events and situations creates drama in this work.<\/p>\n

\n
