“bodies in urban spaces” will be performed by members of Taos Youth Ballet and willing participants from the general public, who will rehearse with the artists in the week prior to the festival. The company describes the performance/dance piece as “a moving trail, choreographed for a group of dancers. The performers lead the audience through selected parts of public and semi-public spaces. A chain of physical ‘interventions,’ set up very quickly, existing temporarily, allows viewers to perceive the place in a new and different way — on the run.”

Generously sponsored by: Arjuna Capital and Substance of Taos

About the artist: Mr. Dorner founded Cie. Willi Dorner, a dance company, in 1999 and since then has performed in numerous festivals and venues in Europe, Untied States, and even South Korea.
