SUMMARY:A.I.M by Kyle Abraham: White Space
DESCRIPTION:Run Time: 1 hour \nWhite Space brings together acclaimed composers\, Jason Moran and Nico Muhly\, for a haunting new collaborative score that pierces the heart of choreographer Kyle Abraham’s newest evening-length dance. At just over one hour\, this dance work grounds its cast of 11 captivating dancers in a restless and thought-provoking world fueled by a vast movement vocabulary consisting of Abraham’s signature blend of classical and contemporary dance with a hip-hop underbelly. The score is performed live by two pianists on one piano\, with echoes of pre-recorded hip-hop driving the collision of reality and idealism. \n“lush movement\, infectious music and magnetic dancers…” (The New York Times) \n \nA.I.M by Kyle Abraham is a contemporary dance company rich with influences across genres and disciplines while remaining unmistakably its own. Described by award-winning Founder and Artistic Director Kyle Abraham as a “post-modern gumbo rooted in social dance practice\,” the company produces provocative\, dance-forward experiences that spotlight overlooked perspectives with depth and humanity. \nFounded in 2006 and based in New York City\, A.I.M has spent two decades at the forefront of the field. It has earned recognition for its “lush movement\, infectious music and magnetic dancers…” (The New York Times)\, becoming one of the most acclaimed touring ensembles in the world. Grounded in a commitment to reshaping how artists are supported\, the company provides dancers with 52-week salaries and retirement benefits\, alongside royalty payments in perpetuity for their role in the creation of new work. A.I.M continues to expand what a contemporary dance company can be and who gets to imagine themselves within it. In doing so\, the organization challenges the entire arts ecosystem to create space where more people can thrive. \nFor more information\, to get involved\, or to purchase your A.I.M merchandise\, please visit http://aimbykyleabraham.org. \nFollow A.I.M on Instagram @aimbykyleabraham and\nKyle Abraham on Instagram  @kyle_abraham_original_recipe

Released in the shadow of Watergate\, Vietnam\, urban crisis\, and the Bicentennial\, All the President’s Men\, Network\, and Rocky offer three sharply different portraits of American life at a time of great transition and uncertainty. \nScreenings will be introduced and hosted by Rafer Guzmán. Rafer writes about movies\, music\, and popular culture for Newsday. He has been a film critic for WNYC\, a co-host of the independent podcast “Movie Therapy\,” and a staff writer at The Wall Street Journal.
