DanceMagazine Announce 2020 Awards

9/30/2020

0 Comments

 
From Jennifer Stahl/Dance Magazine's Editor in Chief:

Since 1954, Dance Magazine has celebrated the living legends among us with the Dance Magazine Awards. This year, in light of deep reflections on racial equity inspired by the Black Lives Matter movement, the selection committee decided to take a close look at exactly who the magazine has honored over the past seven decades. Unsurprisingly, the list is overwhelmingly white. Although it's grown more diverse in recent years, many brilliant artists of color have been left out for far too long.
So for 2020, in order to reckon with and take a step toward repairing that history, the committee chose an outstanding group of all-Black artists. I'm delighted to announce our incredible honorees for 2020:

Carlos Acosta
Debbie Allen
Camille A. Brown
Laurieann Gibson
Alonzo King


Chairman's Award: Darren Walker
Harkness Promise Awards: Kyle Marshall and Marjani Forté-Saunders

Dance Rising: NYCA Hyper-Local Dance Out   -  October 1 and 3, 2020

The Dance Rising Collective, a new collective of artists and administrators created in partnership with Kinesis Project dance theatre, The Field as fiscal sponsor and advised by Lucy Sexton of New Yorkers for Culture & Arts, presents  Dance Rising: NYC, a hyper-local dance out across all five boroughs October 1 and 3 from 5:00-5:30pm. NYC professional dancers will take to the parks, windows, streets, and rooftops to dance, focusing public attention on an industry that remains largely on pause due to COVID. Everybody identifying as a professional dancer, choreographer or teacher is invited to take part.  

Dance Rising: A Hyper-Local Dance Out taking place on October 1 and October 3rd from 5:00 - 5:30pm EST.  NYC dance professionals are invited to take to the windows, rooftops, stoops, or wherever and DANCE!

WHY?  Because our life's work and economic livelihood has been deeply impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.  We are rising up to be more visible in our communities, connect with our neighbors, and begin important conversations about how dance and dancers will survive in a post-pandemic reality.

WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? It means that we are making dance visible in a reopening landscape and showing that there is dance in every home, heart and borough of the City.  We are an integral part of the culture and economy of the city and we want to be SEEN and HEARD.  

WHAT DO I DO?  
1.  Go to the Dance Rising NYC website: https://www.dancerising.org/
2.  Read more about what we are doing.
3.  SIGN UP to participate! 
4.  TELL FRIENDS, colleagues, dancers, teachers, etc. so they can join in too! Please spread the word to your networks! All styles and traditions of dance are welcome.
5.  On OCT 1 and/or OCT 3 between 5:00-5:30pm, grab a friend to film you and dance indoors or outdoors.  We will send you a link to upload your video and/or you can share on your social media platforms; these videos will continue to live on in a phase 2 project that will bring dance to the public spaces of NYC via video.

A world premiere dance event, streamed live
Draw from Within

Sat, Sep 26 at 8pm
$13
​
Rambert breaks new ground with its first live stream performance, created with Bessie Award-winning choreographer and filmmaker Wim Vandekeybus (Always the Same Lies, 1991 Next Wave). Incorporating the camera into the heart of the action, the UK-based dance company transforms its studio in London’s South Bank into a series of contrasting, vivid theatrical worlds for an exhilarating performance that traverses dreams, nightmares, and inverted realities.

This is a live event available only via streaming at the designated time. 

Rambert’s company of artists, production staff, and technical teams have taken extensive precautions in order to work together safely and look forward to bringing the vitality—and uncertainty—of live performance directly to your home.
