Joe and I attended a GloATL artist show tonight, held at the goat farm (the venue of my s/s 10 collection show). We first were introduced to these dancers back in September on fashions night out - two of the dancers were preforming at the Jeffery store for FNO. They the wieredest thing I've seen in a while especially given the fact that we were in Atlanta. Their movements were like gyrations, cortorting and writhing their bodies in what seemed like a completely improvised maner. With their pelvic area jerking around, they kept party goers in a state of uneasiness. Of course we gravitated to them and watched them until the night was over.
Tonight's show was less profound and startlingly refreshing, maybe because the dance was a new one, less about the act of migrating. What ever the case maybe I was less in awe- that is not to say I didn't enjoy it, on the contrary - I respect what these artist are doing and I think that it is very beautiful needed art in our city. I recommend it to everyone, you must go and see these girls at their next event (if not in Atlanta then elsewhere) and support their art.
