| Event Description |
Alex Katz: Theater and Dance is the first comprehensive exploration of Katz’s playful and inventive collaborations with choreographers, dancers, and members of avant-garde theater ensembles over six decades. The exhibition showcases rare archival materials, major sets and paintings, and previously unexhibited sketches from more than two dozen productions. In addition to presenting a range of works by innovators across the performing arts and poetry, it spotlights fifteen productions that Katz produced with Paul Taylor, exploring the creative partnership that produced some of the most significant postmodern dance of the twentieth century. The exhibition, organized by the Colby College Museum of Art, reveals how Katz’s singular creative sensibility lies in his spirited, iterative approach to theater and dance design and in fascinating crossovers between the artist’s studio and the stage.
