Bridgman/Packer Dance: Re-assessing what is real
Link4/4/2008
"Excerpt: Both dancers, their backs to us, are bare from the waist up,
but wear white hoop skirts. One dancer's face is projected in perfect
alignment on the other's waist, creating a Magritte-like head and neck
atop the skirt. Bridgman raises his skirt and, covering his own chest
and face, exposes his bare legs; Packer's female face and upper body
is projected onto that skirt. It conjures a memory of the towering
Pilobolus male/female beings in "Untitled," when a woman, dressed in
Victorian hat and long white dress (sitting atop her nude male
partner's shoulders) coyly raised the hem, exposing "her" hairy legs."
