CANCELED: Núcleo: A Reading and Performance by Cecilia Vicuña
Friday, March 13, 2020
Bard Hall
5:00 pm – 7:00 pm EDT/GMT-4
Artist-poet Cecilia Vicuña creates songs, performances, installations, paintings, films, written works, books, lectures, and sculptures. Born in Chile, profoundly impacted by the encouraging time of Allende, the subsequent terrors of Pinochet, and decades lived in exile, Vicuña makes work that is always attentive to ethics, the earth, and history. Her improvisatory, participatory performances, often associated with site-specific installations, emphasize the collective nature of action and creativity to bring forth justice, balance, and the transformation of the world. Vicuña will read from her latest book, Núcleo.5:00 pm – 7:00 pm EDT/GMT-4
