The Composers Now & Asian Cultural Council Creative Residency program at The Pocantico Center pairs distinguished composers with artists from a wide range of disciplines to develop performance pieces that engage both the eyes and ears. Each duo will present excerpts from the work they created during their residencies at Pocantico and discuss their individual styles and process of creative partnership.
The event will be followed by a reception with special access to the DR Center gallery, currently showing Inspired Encounters: Women Artists and the Legacies of Modern Art.
This event is presented with Composers Now and the Asian Cultural Council.
The program on November 4 will feature composer inti figgis-vizueta and dancer Wu Chien-Wei.
The program on November 10 will feature vocalist and composer Selma Savolainen and interdisciplinary artist Cheuk Wing Nam.
These events are presented with Composers Now and the Asian Cultural Council.
