Sarah Michelson

We are sorry to announce that this installation has been canceled. We regret any inconvenience and look forward to seeing you at the rest of the DANCE MOViES screenings. Part of the DANCE MOViES Commission, this installation officially premieres on April 6, and will be followed by an open reception and panel discussion with all commissioned artists. -- In 2012, Sarah Michelson created an 80-minute dance called Devotion Study #1 – the American Dancer, at the Whitney Museum of American Art as part of the Whitney Biennial. In Devotion Study #2, Michelson works with animator Jack Tilley. Together they challenge the vitality of one medium (dance) through translation into another (animation). This animated film is presented as an architectural installation that asks whether the original dance continues to exist.
