Silverspace Salons is an informal series of salon-style, artist talks with local and national dance artists committed to pushing their creative approach forward. Each conversation focuses on an invited artist's process in making movement-based work. Through dialogue, movement demonstrations, and video presentations, artists talk about how their research manifests in the body and how it aids, but also differentiates from, the development process of making work in the studio.This program is a partnership between Silverspace and CDF, with support from the Chicago Seminar on Dance and Performance.
