June 17, 2010 © Suburban Journals of Chicago Inc photo Hubbard Street Dance Chicago, one
of the world’s most important contemporary dance companies critically
acclaimed for its versatility and virtuosity will present its 2010
“Inside/Out” Choreographic Workshop at the Art Institute of
Chicago.
Known for creating gripping new works, Hubbard Street artistic staff and dancers come together, draw inspiration from works of art and then set it into motion. “Inside/Out” is a culmination of a year-long residency during which Hubbard Street artists have explored the Art Institute’s collection to create their own definition of “modern.” Expecting to draw large crowds, “Inside/Out” will feature performances throughout the Modern Wing including Griffin Court, as well as on the Grand Staircase. Always FREE and open to the public, “Inside/Out” has been described as exciting, raw and challenging! “Inside/Out”

on the Griffin Court, they huddled in the center, share social
amenities and then disperse leaving the
floor to two couples of paired performers featuring dance and song.

to time warp.
