CPR – Center for Performance Research Announces 2022 Artists-in-Residence

9/30/2021

0 Comments

 
Center for Performance Research is excited to announce the ten artists selected for its 2022 Artist-in-Residence (AiR) Program. This year-long residency supports a wide range of artists working within various perspectives of contemporary dance and performance, and time-based forms. The program seeks to support the individualized creative process, and create the conditions for artistic research, experimentation, risk, embodiment, and exchange. 

The 2022 CPR Artists-in-Residence are Justin Cabrillos, Ayano Elson, Doménica García, ryen heart, Symara Johnson, Johnnie Cruise Mercer, Star Mitchell, Pioneers Go East Collective, Ogemdi Ude, and Jessie Young.

After receiving nearly 200 applications through an open call, the 2022 AiRs were selected by an independent panel of artists and community stakeholders, who brought a broad range of perspectives, aesthetics, and approaches to the selection process. As CPR strives to decentralize modes of power in its programming and operations, the panel-reviewed open call application was instituted in 2019 in order to increase visibility, opportunities, and resources for a more diverse range of artists in the field. This year’s selection panel was Stephanie Acosta, LD DeArmon, Douglas Everett Turner, and Katie Workum.

For more information, visit http://go.illinois.edu/EEO.
 
We seek an artist/scholar committed to creative research, progressive pedagogical practice, and a colleague who will contribute to our ongoing anti-racist efforts and curriculum redesign. We are interested in adventurous thinkers with clear research interests and inventive trajectories. The successful candidate should have a passion for broadening perspectives on dance and promoting the importance of the form in contemporary culture. We welcome applications from artist/scholars from multiple genres of dance practice and performance.

The mission of Dance at Illinois is to contribute to Dance’s positive impact on the world, as a distinctive generator of new knowledge and as a vital cultural agent and signifier. We activate the power of Dance to root out historically unbalanced, hierarchically oppressive perspectives and are committed to investigating the dynamic intersections between research and teaching in academic, professional, and community settings. We promote ethical, anti-racist, and progressive practices, operating from a deeply held belief that diversity and inclusion are critical for the advancement of the artform and for humankind. Utilizing a range of experimental and canonic approaches, we generate choreographic, pedagogical, performative, and scholarly research that centers Dance in global discourse.  We aim to forge innovative and sustainable lives as artist educators and to model that practice widely, compelled by our collective, passionate dedication to Dance as a transformational process.
