Transmissions: Nick Mauss in Conversation with Elena Filipovic, Jennifer Homans, and Elisabeth Sussman

May 4, 2018

In conjunction with Nick Mauss: Transmissions, this roundtable conversation explores the genesis of the exhibition through multiple circuits of inquiry and dialogue, how the interdependence of dance and art histories can be exhibited, and what challenges are brought up in the presentation of ephemeral, time-based, collaborative works. Addressing some of the counter-histories proposed by Transmissions, this conversation emphasizes exhibition-making as an artistic form. Mauss speaks with Elena Filipovic, Director and Curator, Kunsthalle Basel, Jennifer Homans, Founder and Director, The Center for Ballet in the Arts at NYU, and Elisabeth Sussman, Sondra Gilman Curator of Photography and co-curator of Nick Mauss: Transmissions, each of whom has worked closely with the artist.

This program is organized in collaboration with The Center for Ballet and the Arts at New York University.
