TICKETS + INFORMATION
Video/peformance artist Joan Jonas and post-Butoh dancer Eiko Otake are very different artists: Jonas contrives to make her deeply considered works seem almost offhand, whereas Otake cultivates a granitic stillness. They bonded over Jonas’s deep affection for and knowledge of Otake’s native culture, and together have created an installation on view at the Castelli Gallery, which this afternoon they will perform in the midst of.
MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: The Best Sichuan might not be the very best Sichuan. But it’s very very good Sichuan.
