Be&D NYFW Event: White River/Black Sky

Be & D brings a Happening - much like there was in the 60's to their NYC Atelier for fashion week. An assortment of performers, dancers and musicians collaborated on this launch of The Artists Laboratory. The show, entitled White River/ Black Sky, is an exploration of magic, mysticism and the various forms they can take; themes include ritual, aging, transformation and dissolution. Some key terms used to discribe the event are scared geometry, modern dance, and music reminiscent of john cage and merce cunningham.
