Coming to the Whitney Museum of American Art on the West Side of Manhattan is a new dance-focused exhibit of Nick Mauss works entitled Transmissions. From the Whitney:
For this exhibition, Nick Mauss explores the history of American modernist ballet, continuing a hybrid mode of working he has pursued for a decade in which the roles of curator, artist, choreographer, scholar, and performer converge. New works by Mauss—ranging from scores for a ballet to scenic design, décor elements, and live performance—will appear alongside pieces from the Whitney’s collection and those of other institutions.
That last point is important. The teaser on the website shows 1941 photos of Donald Saddler.
The exhibit opens March 16 and will run into an unspecified point in May. Haglund will report back after he attends the Members Preview Dates a few days before the opening.
