Neo

0 upcoming performances in New York

*Neo* is a contemporary ballet that takes cues from the late-20th-century turn toward raw, subjective art-making, translating that sensibility into bodies, breath, and impact. Movement is direct and physical, with phrases that can feel intentionally unfinished, as if the choreography were handled like a rough surface. In New York City, where downtown experimentation and museum culture often cross-pollinate, the work reads as part of a larger conversation about how “expression” survives after modernism. Its clearest achievement is its refusal to prettify intensity.
