Poetry & Poetics: Guest speaker Will Rawls

Fisher-Bennett Hall Faculty Lounge, room 135

In this session, Will Rawls will present some of his artworks—both performance and video—as points of departure for discussing choreography as an expanded practice. Choreography will be considered as a potent collider for movement and language, for sending the notion of the human being into question, and for practicing the self in real time. Along the way, Rawls will reflect on the stakes of image capture as it relates to Black performance and address the impact on his work of Caribbean intellectuals such as Édouard Glissant and Sylvia Wynter. Group discussion will follow.
