Zvi­D­ance. Back again for a final pre­for­mance of White’

Come out to Gov­er­nors Island for this final per­for­mance of White’, the acclaimed dance piece by direc­tor Zvi Gothe­nier, six dancers and com­pos­er Scott Kil­lian. It is part of a sum­mer series by the Low­er Man­hat­tan Cul­tur­al Coun­cil and the Riv­er to Riv­er Fes­ti­val. Togeth­er they have col­lab­o­rat­ed to cre­ate a piece using Fort Jay’s his­tor­i­cal sig­nif­i­cance and eerie sense of aban­don­ment to reflect on our attempts to feel secure by arm­ing our bor­ders. The dancers wrap areas of the site with long white gauze strips rem­i­nis­cent of ban­dages, slow­ly cre­at­ing a web-like sculp­ture inter­twin­ing through­out the space” LMCC.
