EAF16: Madeline Hollander’s Performance “st, nd, rd, th, th, th…”

SATURDAY OCTOBER 15 | 5:15 – 6:15PM

Madeline Hollander presents a series of site-specific performances that draw choreographic inspiration from government mandated public signage for safety protocols and “life-saving” techniques, such as the Heimlich maneuver posters, TSA pat-down, CPR, and airplane safety cards. Highlighting the gap between the verbal, visual and corporeal spheres, the piece investigates interpretations of accepted notation systems and their corresponding physical movements. Survey flags mark the paths of the choreography, leaving signs of their trajectory.
