OutMigration, A Feast in
Seven Acts, is a radical reworking of "dinner theater".
In this piece, audience and performers are part of the same journey
— an all-ascending experience, designed to exalt the senses
through video, music, menu tasting and performance. The journey
starts inside of Earth and moves outward through different stages,
traveling toward the center of space. OutMigration is about departing,
moving, migrating, becoming lighter, defeating gravity, being
suspended in isolation, discovering, dislocation, new dimensions,
celebrating the unknown, spatial decadence, being drunk at the
edge of the space where one can only keep on moving, free flying
through the years and decades of terminal velocity, and learning
the goal of this mission.
The 12-Course Tasting Menu is the creation of our new Chef, Ryan
Jaronik. Ryan joins us from Masa
(a 3-star Mexican restaurant in Boston).
The contents of the Tasting Menu
will NOT be revealed before the performance:
It will include morsels as well as larger plates.
There will be several drinks included.
Four of the dishes will include meat.
We hope to produce a vegetarian version; perhaps this Fall.
For now, this performance best suits omnivores.
Mogollón
is an Art Direction studio based in Brooklyn, New York. It began
in 2004 when art director and filmmaker Monica Brand joined forces
with art director, painter and filmmaker Francisco Lopez to collaborate
with PS1/MoMA on a film documentary about The Young Architects
Program for PS1’s renowned "Warm-Up" series in
2004 summer. After this collaboration they decided to rent a space
and create Mogollón as a means to produce art direction
for design, film, theater, photography and fashion. Constrained
by contemporary limits of elaborating within a singular discipline,
Mogollón emerged, interweaving different artistic threads
into one piece of work. In so doing, it opens itself to the contemporary
and archaic and to vast sensory input.
Mogollón has exhibited its work in galleries such as Momenta
Gallery, NY, Transplant Gallery, NY, Studio Soto, Boston, PS1
MoMA, NY among others. Mogollón has also produced set and
costume design for feature films, dance and theater.
Mariangela
Lopez (Artistic Director of Accidental Movement) was
born in Caracas, Venezuela (1975), where she started her dancing
career. Upon receiving her BFA from the a Boston Conservatory
in 1999 Mariangela moved to New York City were she had the opportunity
to perform and collaborate with various artists and choreographers.
In 2001, Mariangela obtained her Certification as a Movement Analyst
(CMA) from the Laban/ Baternieff Institute of Movement Studies,
NYC. Since then Lopez has created three major pieces: The other
(2001), the Smell of Tangerines (2002), Wonders of Progress (2003)
and In the landscape of Rolling Heels (2005). All of which were
seen in various venues in NYC such as Dixon Place, Danspace Project
at Saint Mark’s Church, Movement Research Series at the
Judson Church, P.S 122 and Tisch School of the Arts, among others.
