ALWIN NIKOLAIS: EVOLUTIONS OF THEORY AND PRACTICE - AN INTERNATIONAL FORUM ON MOTION, MEDIA AND AESTHETICS

October 5-7, 2018
Thomas Hunter Building,
930 Lexington Ave, New York, NY 10065
                                                 
The Nikolais/Louis Foundation for Dance invites participants to a three-day conference to explore the evolution of Nikolais’ fundamental ideas around motion, media and aesthetics; how they reverberate in current practice; how the manifold processes of creativity and invention relate to one another across disciplines, in the arts, sciences and education.
 
We look forward to seeing you in October
