Equus Project JoAnna Mendl Shaw - Equus Projects
“Dance on Camera” – Lincoln Center
February 1
JoAnna Mendl Shaw and her company Equus Projects which melds movement of bodies with that of horses will premiere a film about her work as part of Lincoln Center’s Dance on Camera series. For the film, Mendl Shaw “…takes her company to Sweden to work with new elements and new friends in the rural countryside. Ulrike Michels Nord, director of Klinten Kultur, a company of young adults with autism, opens the way for the American choreographer to create a magical piece that expresses the joys and challenges of bringing together unfamiliar beasts (the new horses), trainers, professional dancers and autistic individuals to make a work of art in a mystical setting—the Hovdala castle and library ruin deep in a forest. The challenge is to accomplish this feat in just 12 days!” notes the release. Find out more ~ http://lc.lincolncenter.org/shows/209270?show_date=2014-02-01+13%3A00%3A00
