I wanted to alert ARLIS/NA New York conference attendees who are arriving Saturday February 24th or earlier that the New York City Ballet will have a performance on that Saturday evening as part of their terrific art series, in which an artist creates a large artwork or installation in the Ballet’s atrium. Past artists have included JR and Marcel Dzama, and this year’s is Jihan Zencirli. All tickets (which just went on sale today) to the February 24th performance ( a mix of new works by contemporary choreographers) are only $30 (an absolute steal).

Here’s an article from the NY Times about the art series: https://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/26/arts/dance/new-york-city-ballet-applies-a-surreal-touch-to-build-audiences.html

And this is the direct link to tickets: https://www.nycballet.com/Season-Tickets/17-18-Season/Winter/February-24,-2018-at-8-00-PM-Here-Now.aspx

ART SERIES 2018 IS HERE

BALLET PERFORMANCE + ART EXHIBITION

JAN 26, FEB 2, 24 eve

After a year-long wait, we are excited to announce that Jihan Zencirli is the 2018 New York City Ballet Art Series artist.

Creating under the moniker GERONIMO, Jihan's large-scale installations, made of compostable, biodegradable balloons, create emotional and physical spaces that break up the monotony of a day, connecting us to one another and bringing joy. More than 200,000 balloons, ranging in size from ten inches to ten feet, will be used to create a series of installations inside and outside of our Lincoln Center home, making this her largest project to date.

Pop into NYCB's Art Series for a night of ballet and art, followed by an after party on the promenade. All tickets are $30 and every audience member will receive a takeaway created specifically for Art Series by Jihan.
