Virtually There at Mana Contemporary

Artistic directors and curators Mafalda Millies and Roya Sachs have joined forces to present Virtually There, a performance inspired by Oskar Schlemmer's Triadic Ballet (1922), hosted by the Performa Visionaries and presented by Mana Contemporary in Jersey City.
With choreography by iconic “punk ballerina” Karole Armitage; costumes by the renowned Brazilian designers the Campana Brothers; staging by Whitney Biennial artists Kate Gilmore and Heather Rowe; music by underground French composer Charles Derenne; and creative production by technology innovators MATTE Projects. Opening Night is co-hosted by the Performa Visionaries, with proceeds to benefit Performa. The year 2016 also marks the thirtieth anniversary of Oskar Schlemmer's first exhibition in the US (Baltimore Museum of Art, 1986), as well as the ninetieth anniversary of the opening of the Bauhaus school in Dessau (1926).
