Films By Karn Junkinsmith: Dance Outside And Otherwise
Mar 27, 2008
Join us as Seattle choreographer Karn Junkinsmith presents her slate of experimental dance films. Her dance film work began in 1990, when she collaborated with Lena Sharpe on GIRLS FIND WAYS TO GET THERE, a dance of three female archetypes: Joan of Arc, witch and pregnant virgin. Her directorial debut, the whimsical DAY OFF, was produced in association with NWFF, and was shot by Lynn Shelton (WE GO WAY BACK). This program also includes recent efforts such as BUS STOP, in which citizens discover shared passion for public dancing, and ALCHEMY OF THE ORACLES, an extravaganza of bopping female bodies lacking wardrobe control, shot by Benjamin Kasulke (WE GO WAY BACK, BRAND UPON THE BRAIN). Several of the films will be accompanied by live music by Jeff Junkinsmith and friends that will have you dancing in your seats
