Crossing the Street is a Metaphor

A selection of films that considers choreographies of pedestrian movement and the legacy of the Judson Dance Theater, the seminal experimental collective from the 1960's that included, among others, Lucinda Childs, Yvonne Rainer, and Trisha Brown.
The screening includes Nicole Beutler's 2: Dialogue With Lucinda (2010), Pascal Magnin's Reines d'un Jour (1997), John Smith's The Girl Chewing Gum (1976), Michiko Tsuda's A Visitor From Looking-Glass (2011), and others. The screening program takes its name from a line in Guido Van Der Werve's But we'll know won't we (2001).
