This Saturday, May 12, resident scholar K. Meira Goldberg will be performing her flamenco piece Raíz with José Moreno at NYC’s Dixon Place, in the lower east side. Advance tickets are $15 ($12 student/senior/NY ID). Tickets and full information are available here.

About Raíz:

The performance emerges from the poetic and transgressive realism of arte povera: a return to simple objects and messages, a stage where traces of nature and the industrial come alive. The Crone embodies the strength of instability. She enacts rejection and rebellion, memory and faith, feasting and solitude. Her pilgrimage maps a homeland containing many forces in tension. This contemporary quejío opens spaces and sensations where wings may find ground and roots take flight.
