COMMUNITAS at Dixon Place

ABOUT THIS SHOW
Communitas, a creative think tank, anticipates a new cultural topography, offering a refraction of the times we are moving toward. We continue the tradition of a Downtown Manhattan participatory social practice, congregating with evolving ideas in art, aesthetics, optimism, pacifism, iconoclasm, thought, imagination, vanguardism & New York City. Our salon, a symposium of social sculpture and the occurrent arts, brings together collaborators from the many worlds of New York City and beyond to create the next artistic rebellion for the city. We welcome a panhumanist spectrum of creative voices engaging in dialogical aesthetics and art intervention: voices bringing people together to open more worlds, make beauty and magic, create peace and freedom, and be more futurist than nostalgic to build a united tomorrow not equal but egalitarian.

In ?August, Communitas will present Whisky: A Peak Alpha AF Site Specific Interactive Installation.?
