Village Preservation, a New York City-based organization that has successfully advocated for the landmark designation of more than 1,250 buildings in Greenwich Village, the East Village, and Noho, announces a collaboration between its outdoor public art exhibition "VILLAGE VOICES 2022" and the Martha Graham Dance Company.
The dancers of Graham 2 will perform and teach Martha Graham's 19 Poses at the VILLAGE VOICES installation A Monument to Choice in Gansevoort Plaza. Taken from groundbreaking, seminal Graham works, the 19 Poses are a compilation of choreographed moments that embody power, determination, resilience and more. They were assembled in 2020 to honor the anniversary of the 19th Amendment.
A Monument to Choice is a physical platform that carries the inscription, I Stand for Choice. It is an experiential installation, where people can rise up to show their support in standing for choice in all its meanings and iterations; it is a destination to make a statement.
The free workshop will be held on October 14th at Gansevoort Plaza and will include a photo session on the monument for anyone so inspired.
