The Body in Action: Paths Towards a Personal Cartography

Violeta
Luna, a renowned Mexican performer, actress, and educator, has created a
workshop for those interested in exploring the intersection of the personal,
the theatrical, and the political through stage actions. Workshop participants will
make use of their personal memory and identity as the expressive territory
where they will chart a vocabulary of stage actions. Drawing on their use of
the body, participants will also work on imagery related to their individual and
social understanding of gender, sexuality, and race. Who should apply:
Professionals or students of performance and spoken-word art, actors, dancers,
and visual artists. All applicants should have a basic understanding of the discipline
of performance art. Advanced students in these disciplines are also welcome.
