Figural Expression through Motion: An Evening of Dance and Art

A celebration of movement in dance and art, this evening will feature performances of original compositions under the direction of Kinesiology faculty member Cynthia Adams. Dance students and Orchesis I dancers will present choreography inspired by their close investigations at the sculptures and drawings from the exhibition Double Take: Insights on Figural Expression. Experience a different kind of museum visit as you are introduced to works of art through the lens of dancers.
