Project Title
MÖNSTER OUTSIDE
Fiscal Year Awarded
2016
Grant or Program
National Dance Project Production Grant
Grant Amount
$45,000

SBDNY in collaboration with Per Störby (Composer) from Sweden, is developing a multidisciplinary dance, MÖNSTER OUTSIDE. The piece is performed by Bell’s four dancers and the New Tide Orquesta (NTO) from Sweden in a stage arena that marries Bell’s brand of highly technical movement with Störby’s sound worlds to speak to themes of human alienation and the search for intimacy in constantly shifting contemporary life. Bell’s genre-busting movement is accompanied by live music that includes the melodic aspects of baroque; the unpredictable clashes in free improvisation; and the progressive patterns of minimalism. It embraces fleeting images culminating into cinematic and theatrical currents. Estimated artist fee: $11,000-$15,000 (depending on routing)/performance, $36,000/week
