Meg Stuart: A Refracted Portrait

Meg Stuart, one of the world’s most influential and acclaimed contemporary choreographers-and recipient of the 2018 Venice Biennale Golden Lion for Dance Lifetime Achievement-returned to the Walker for the first time since 2006 for a rare US appearance. The American-born, Berlin/Brussels-based artist continually invents new presentation contexts and movement languages in collaboration with artists from diverse disciplines. This multipart engagement includes the North American premiere of Celestial Sorrow, a Walker co-commissioned immersive installation and performance made with visual artist Jompet Kuswidananto, along with An evening of solos and duets, a stunning retrospective offering a glimpse into an oeuvre that continues to live, grow, and transform.
