Flux Flow Dance Center is thrilled to be collaborating with the Columbus Museum of Art for a weeklong creative intensive with an intergenerational group of dancers from the Flux Flow community. Participants are spending the week rehearsing every evening at the museum to create a new work. The week will culminate in a public performance Sunday, August 18th in the Walter Wing, interacting with the Robin F. Williams exhibit “We’ve Been Expecting You”.
About “Grin”:
Figures in the Robin F. Williams: “We’ve Been Expecting You” exhibit grin broadly in self-satisfaction. They don’t shy away from the viewer’s gaze or try to make their smiles pleasing. By refusing shame and transforming it into satisfaction and pleasure, they embody a queer narrative. The dance performers interact with Williams’s figures by creating a living sculpture as they alternate between grins of smug self-indulgence and a dance ritual of collective joy and connection. Set to Charli xcx and Billie Eilish’s teasing collaboration “Guess” on loop, viewers see the group continuously choose shamelessness, pleasure, and connection within a durational performance that celebrates resilience alongside rest and regeneration.
