About this Event
Please join Leslie Satin, dancer/choreographer and author of Dancing with Georges Perec: Embodying Oulipo, in conversation with social dance historian Julie Malnig and literary scholar/trombonist Gregory Erickson. They will explore the connections of French Jewish writer Perec’s work to experimental dance, especially New York City’s 1960s Judson Dance Theater and its lineage. Dancing considers the significance of the body, everydayness, space, and attention permeating Perec’s writing, linking them to both his personal life and sociocultural history--especially the early childhood loss of his parents in the Holocaust.
