ROSTOCK.- Leiko Ikemura is a an internationally acclaimed artist. The painter and sculptor has lived and worked in Germany since 1987. The essence of Leiko Ikemura’s art is conveyed in her merging of the human and nature in works culminating in surreal phantasmagorical landscape composites. Fusion and alienation simultaneously appear both paradoxical and harmonious, a synthesis that is also reflected in Leiko Ikemura’s own biography. She is immersed in western art and culture, which has influenced her own roots, enabling the discovery of subject matter and formal languages that are immanent to Japanese traditions.

NEW YORK, NY.- In the work of choreographer Pam Tanowitz, it’s not uncommon for dancers to match the space around them, dressed to blend with their environment. Those designs — costumes that quote the Joyce Theater’s geometrically patterned chairs or the muted gold of the David H. Koch Theater — are more than clever visual choices. They’re a statement on the inseparable nature of dance and space: how dance is inevitably shaped by where it happens, and how dancers can infuse a place with new life.
