Cross Performance/Ralph Lemon
Cross Performance offers a
variety of engagement activities that make connections across cultures and
enhance understanding of, and dialogue about, creative process and cultural
traditions. These include activities such as lecture-demonstrations and
symposia on creative process and cultural practices; dance and music workshops
in a variety of traditional and contemporary forms; master classes for
performance students; presentations of and dialogues about work-in-progress;
mixed-media lectures; and pre- and post-performance discussions.
Ralph Lemon and his collaborators offer these activities throughout the
continuum of research-creation-production-performance, providing people in
diverse communities with windows into different stages of creative process.
Some artistic projects-publications, visual arts exhibits, web
projects-incorporate rich contextual information that can spur discourse on
dance, performance, theater, visual art, culture and history. This high level
of communication and engagement underscore Ralph Lemon's commitment to sharing
his artistic practice-not only his artistic "product."
