Defying Gravity with Pilobolus and Michael Moschen

by rjohnson at 1:00 pm

Pilobolus invites you back into the studio to watch the making of Azimuth. Created in collabroation with Michael Moschen, the world-renowned master juggler who has been recognized by the McCarthur Foundation with the prestigious Genius Award, Azimuth presents a geometric universe where gravity-defying dancers and objects that seem to bend the laws of physics must find harmony within the celestial machine.

A product of Pilobolus’s International Collaborators Project, Azimuth unites the underlying spirit of Pilobolus’s work—support, humanity, connection—with an artist similarly fascinated with the emotional and physical properties governing human interaction.

Azimuth premieres tonight at The Joyce. Purchase tickets now.
