At the Dance Center:"Christened in the 1980s by Vanity Fair magazine as the “punk ballerina,” Karole Armitage, along with her dancers, marked a milestone in 2005. After 15 years of choreographing and directing ballets and operas in Europe, she returned to New York and launched her company, Armitage Gone! Dance. On the program at The Dance Center is Ligeti Essays, a suite of concise jewel-like movements choreographed to music by the great Hungarian composer György Ligeti. Each song consists of a short choreographic incident of different character, ranging from the humorous to the ridiculous, to the enchanted and sarcastic. Also on the program is time is the echo of an axe within a wood, set to the music of Bela Bartok. Both pieces are designed by internationally acclaimed visual artist David Salle."
