Movement Lab: Director of the Movement Lab, Gabri Christa, just concluded two weeks of performances at Theater Lab NYC. She performed Magdalena, a multimedia, solo dance performance that reveals a deeply personal account of experiencing her Dutch mother’s dementia, and an effort to piece together her past, marked by struggles with war, interracial marriage and unconventional motherhood. The piece marks a stage comeback for Christa, whose work has been hailed as “stunning… multimedia dream” by The New York Times. Studio Manager Guy de Lancey served as the performance’s Dramaturg and Technical Director. Click this image to open Professor Christa's website in a new tab and learn more about Magdalena.

Collections:  Equal parts scholarship, witness, and testimony, A Mouth is Always Muzzled explores art a as a vehicle for resistance, and as a source for strength and hope. The book makes the socio/political realities of Guyana its primary focus, but quickly spirals out to examine artist and activists from around that world whose work grapples with the colonial past that has shaped and marred the country. Hopkinson’s personal relation to Guyana is woven throughout, which lends the book a powerful sense of  immediacy and meaning.   thenewpress.com/books/mouth-always-muzzled  Natalie Hopkinson. A Mouth is Always Muzzled: Six Dissidents, Five Continents, and the Art of Resistance. New York: The New Press. 2018.  Barnard: NX180.P67 H67 2018 and ebook.
