Madeline Hollander

Drill

Aug 27 – Oct 2, 2016

Madeline Hollander's "Drill" is a durational performance, featuring between 2-7 dancers, that will be performed throughout the month. Ongoing performances of "Drill" will take place from 1-6pm each Saturday and Sunday.

"Drill" features dancers Kayla Farrish, Jeremy Pheiffer, Katie Gaydos, Asami Tomida, Andrew Champlin, Madeline Hollander, Traci Finch and Marielis Garcia. With an original score by $3.33 (Celia Hollander).

"Drill" uses the evacuation procedure diagrams for museums, airplanes, universities, movie theaters, theme parks, and other public structures and cultural institutions as the basis for a series of choreographic scores.

Each performer enacts a specific trajectory as described by one of the emergency floor plans, looping continuously from the given "You Are Here" symbol through one of the exits, and then back through the "Entrance" to begin again.

Several deployed aircraft evacuation slides are suspended from the ceiling of the gallery and loom over the performers, in the style of an aerospace museum display.
