PERFORMANCE 11: ON LINE/TRISHA BROWN DANCE COMPANY
12 - 16 January, 2011
MoMA’s Performance Exhibition Series presents a program of live performance and dance in conjunction with the group exhibition On Line: Drawing Through the Twentieth Century. The dancing body has long been a subject matter for drawing, as seen in a variety of works included in this exhibition. These documentations show dance in two dimensions, allowing it to be seen in a gallery setting. But if one considers line as the trace of a point in motion—an idea at the core of this project—the very act of dance becomes a drawing, an insertion of line into time and the three-dimensional space of our lived world.

Sticks (1973), Scallops (1973), Locus Solo (1975), Roof Piece Re-Layed (2011) (based on Roof Piece [1971])
