Site-Specific Dances te invita a una fiesta en el emblem&aacute;tico Stonewall Inn, en beneficio de nuestro m&aacute;s reciente proyecto de colaboraci&oacute;n art&iacute;stica, Love Letters: Cage to Cunningham. Este proyecto ya ha recibido el apoyo de la Fundaci&oacute;n O&#39;Donnell Green para la M&uacute;sica y la Danza, as&iacute; como una prestigiosa Residencia Art&iacute;stica William P. Rayner en Guild Hall of East Hampton. Este proyecto estar&aacute; aproximadamente un 75% completo para finales de 2025. Ay&uacute;danos a alcanzar nuestras metas de recaudaci&oacute;n para completar este proyecto en el invierno de 2026. Tu asistencia apoya a nuestros artistas con base en Nueva York por su talento y contribuciones a la creaci&oacute;n art&iacute;stica en nuestra gran ciudad. Love Letters: Cage to Cunningham es una obra coreogr&aacute;fica y multimedia de larga duraci&oacute;n creada por Site-Specific Dances e inspirada en Love, Icebox, las reci&eacute;n publicadas cartas del compositor John Cage al core&oacute;grafo Merce Cunningham. Estas cartas revelan, por primera vez, la naturaleza entrelazada de las vidas art&iacute;sticas y personales de Cage y Cunningham. Mientras que en su trabajo juntos, John y Merce eran conocidos por rechazar la emoci&oacute;n y la narrativa, las cartas contienen momentos de coqueteo, humor, inseguridad, alegr&iacute;a, excitaci&oacute;n y celos, emociones espec&iacute;ficas de las cartas pero tambi&eacute;n universales en las experiencias humanas de amor y anhelo. Las cartas revelan un cap&iacute;tulo oculto de la historia queer. Al traer estas cartas al escenario, recuperamos una ternura borrada mientras celebramos la imaginaci&oacute;n colaborativa radical que aliment&oacute; una de las asociaciones creativas queer m&aacute;s influyentes en el arte moderno. Las cartas fueron escritas en un momento en el que la danza moderna, la m&uacute;sica y el arte visual comenzaron a fusionarse por primera vez; nuestro proyecto se basa en esta rica herencia de la performance interdisciplinaria, entrelazando coreograf&iacute;a, m&uacute;sica en vivo, videograf&iacute;a, y dise&ntilde;o tipogr&aacute;fico inmersivo, estableciendo paralelismos entre la colaboraci&oacute;n queer, entonces y ahora. Mientras se desarrolla como una serie de vi&ntilde;etas cronol&oacute;gicas que siguen el arco emocional de las cartas, viendo y mostrando a Merce y John a trav&eacute;s de una nueva perspectiva.
