LUMBERYARD Center for Film and Performing Arts joins forces with New York Live Arts (Live Arts) to present the world premiere of Kathy Westwater's Rambler, Worlds Worlds A Part, February 14-16, 2019, having commissioned the work by selecting Westwater as the recipient of LUMBERYARD's 2017 Solange MacArthur Award for New Choreography. In Rambler, Worlds Worlds A Part, Westwater, whom The New Yorker has called "an unconventional choreographer now experiencing a surge of recognition," extends her 20-plus-year exploration of pain and the body, including the pain of others. While contemplating if it is possible to fully communicate the experience of one's own pain-and its opposite, bliss-or to fully know another's, the cast of dancers, including Westwater herself, responds to and celebrates the profound music of post-minimalist composer Julius Eastman.

Patterns in a Chromatic Field reflects Feldman's lifelong fascination with the Abstract Expressionist painters: “My compositions are not really 'compositions' at all,” Feldman said. “One might call them time canvasses in which I more or less prime the canvas with an overall hue of music.”
