WORKSHOPS
Public Workshop with
Molly Shanahan
Saturday June 4, 2005
1.30pm-4.30pm
$20
Open to all levels of experience, this workshop integrates the multiple
documentation processes explored in GLANCE. Shanahan will encourage
participants to be curious about the very notion of geographical
center and to view themselves as epicenters that shift in time rather
than as fixed spatial configurations; illuminating relationships
between external sight and internal sensing, present moment awareness
and memory. For workshop information/registration: (773) 281-0824
or info@linkshall.org
GLANCE: Molly Shanahan’s Eye Cycle

Sunday June 5, 2005 – 5pm

interview with Shanahan by Lucia Mauro, journal extracts, audience
responses, design sketches, video stills, and a CD featuring O’Donnell’s

nature of documentation of live performance. This event includes
the participation of contributors to GLANCE, and audience discussion
Masterclass with Molly Shanahan
Tuesday June 7, 2005
10.30am-12.30pm
$12
This masterclass will focus on the experience of the eyes in shaping
spatial connections in contemporary movement. Participants will
be encouraged to shift their attention from the body's formal outcomes
toward ocular curiosity about the shifting landscape of the studio
environment. Always inviting individual adaptation and interpretation
of sequences, Shanahan tends toward an attention to gravity and
flow, poly-articulation of the body's spirals, and a gentle allowance
of the ball-and-socket joints. For masterclass information/registration:
(773) 281-0824 or info@linkshall.org
