April 25th 8pm: DEGENERATE ART ENSEMBLE
Degenerate Art Ensemble will perform scenes from a new work including video created just two weeks ago in Bulgaria!!! This structured improvisation is research towards the coming premiere of their work Skeleton Flower which will have its full premiere in the Fall. The work includes material never seen before.
Degenerate Art Ensemble (DAE) has shown their work throughout the US and Europe known for their large scale dance and theater projects, concerts, site-transforming spectacles and ongoing public experimentation. Recent highlights of the group's work include a major exhibition at the Frye Art Museum in 2011, was commissioned by director Robert Wilson to interpret his work Einstein on the Beach in 2012 and collaborated with the Kronos Quartet in 2013. Also in 2012 Degenerate Art Ensemble was commissioned by the city of Seattle to create a massive site specific work Underbelly with Olson Kundig Architects to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Seattle World’s Fair. The group's recent work Predator Songstress premiered at the Yerba Buena Center in San Francisco in 2015 followed by Seattle. The group's newest work will have its first performance at the Spotlight USA Festival in Plovdiv, Bulgaria in March of 2018. In December of 2016 DAE teamed up with Czech rock legends Uz Jsme Doma for an epic orchestral work inspired by the music of Uz Jsme Doma and the music of Degenerate Art Ensemble for a concert at the Archa Theatre. In the Fall of 2018 DAE and Uz Jsme Doma will join together for a 20 city European tour.
