adaku, part 2

1 upcoming performance in New York

At BAM (Brooklyn Academy of Music), *adaku, part 2* arrives as a dance work framed by the stakes of live performance in New York. The piece centers on adaku’s movement language, where rhythm and pause are treated as structure rather than decoration. While details of its NYC premiere history are not widely documented, its presence at BAM places it in a local lineage of contemporary dance presented as serious cultural record. One clear impression is its restraint, which asks the audience to do some of the interpretive work.
