The Hudson Eye presents RAWdance’s "Pairings", an informal evening of connections and confrontations through contemporary dance, featuring artist Chris Black and company Ouro and BorosDance alongside RAWdance. From a duet of two men in love (or lust) inspired by a found historical image, to an abstract physical exploration of polarity, oppositional impulses, directions, and forces, to a glimpse into a personal connection between a dance maker and a place frozen in memory, "Pairings" celebrates the idea of dance as a bridge, playing in and expanding the idea of what a duet can be and what it can evoke. Bridges in their own rights, the dance makers on the program all share a bicoastal artistic identity as current Hudson Valley residents with history in San Francisco.Active in Hudson since 2006, Jonah Bokaer Arts Foundation presents its annual Labor Day Performance and Visual Arts Series, The Hudson Eye, arranged in partnership with as many as 27 local venues. The Hudson Eye in an artist-driven 10-day public program and urban showcase, timed through Labor Day weekend in historic downtown Hudson, New York. The festival focuses on dance, music, visual art, performance, film, dining out, nightlife, and free daily conversation panels called the “Hot Topics.” This annual program aims to celebrate the arts community in Hudson and help stimulate creativity and connectivity.
