@ Aguijón Theater Co.
2707 N Laramie Ave, Chicago, 60639
Opening Saturday, May 11th, at 7PM
On May 11, Ensemble Dal Niente will join artists Ana Garcia Jacome and Ariella Granados in a program co-curated by Alejandro T. Acierto and Jose Luis Benavides, featuring video, performance, and sound works by Yun Lee, Jay Afrisando, Ana Garcia Jacome, Carolyn Chen, and Ariella Granados, with performances by Ariella Granados and Dal Niente members Alejandro Acierto, Zachary Good, and Mabel Kwan.
According to curators Acierto and Benavides, “There are new suns is a co-curated program of interdisciplinary and experimental performance works highlighting the edges of access, disability, and race. There are new suns poetically and creatively describes multiple conditions of disability to speculate alternative relationships to sound, image, and language. Or, as Octavia Butler writes, “There is nothing new under the sun, but there are new suns.”
Program:
Yun Lee, Third Space
Jay Afrisando, [SOUNDSCAPTION]
Ana Garcia Jacome, Malitas: women, disability and medical violence
Carolyn Chen, adagio
Ariella Granados, improvisational work
This is the third in a series of shared programs between Dal Niente and other respected Chicago artists, supported by a DCASE Chicago Artists Recovery Program Grant. This program is supported by Hyde Park Art Center’s Artists Run Chicago Fund in partnership with Art Design Chicago, a citywide collaboration initiated by the Terra Foundation for American Art that highlights the city’s artistic heritage and creative communities.
