THE ARCHEOGRAPHY PROJECT pairs an architect (or design team) with a
choreographer (or movement team) to generate the material for a
weekend-long performance. All aspects of orchestrating a performance
are at stake - the built parameters of boundaries and floor planes
and seats, as well as the movements and effects generated by
performers. The series presumes that precepts of movement may act
authoritatively upon architecture and, conversely, that architecture
may operate within a logic of performance.
The first performance will take place during the weekend of September 13th. The weekend of October 13th will open the 2nd piece of the series. The third performance and installtion opens November 8th, and the final fourth installation/performance will open on the 13th of December. SuperFront
offers 600 square feet of exhibition/performance space and 1,000
square feet of outdoor space for the program.
SUPERFRONT is located on 1432 Atlantic Avenue in Bed-Stuy, Brooklyn.
Gallery hours: Sat & Sun 1-6 PM and by appointment. Subway: A train
to Nostrand Avenue. For more information please contact Mitch McEwen,
project director.
