Continuing a 20 year collaborative partnership, Independent Dance and Dance North have joined forces this autumn to bring you Down to RAW, a collection of work by Deborah Hay from 1968 to the present.
About
A unique collection of seven films will be available online for two weeks, from 4 – 17 October. In addition to this online programme, we will be presenting a live screening simultaneously in Findhorn and London with Deborah Hay joining us from Austin, Texas on Thursday 7th October.
Down to RAW offers a rare opportunity to come together as two communities in parallel to listen to and be in dialogue with Deborah Hay, an artist who has spent five decades at the vanguard of choreographic experimentation, helping to re-define the field of dance with her revolutionary work and influential publications.
Prior to Deborah Hay’s talk we will show two short films from her Down to RAW collection:
Alignment is everywhere: an intimate portrait of Deborah Hay by filmmaker Peter Humble and interviewer David Young. It was shot in in Melbourne on a 16mm hand-cranked camera using expired and hand-processed film stock.
my choreographed body… revisited
For 50 years Hay has gradually been enlarging her practice of movement and performance through her own body-based experiments. In this recorded solo she pays tribute to this wealth of experience and for the first time she performs without the compositional edifice that previously determined one solo from another.
