Beth Gill is an award-winning choreographer based in New York City since 2005. Her multidisciplinary works are cinematic timescapes, the product of long-term collaborations with celebrated artists. Gill is a recipient of the Herb Alpert, Doris Duke Impact, Foundation for Contemporary Art, and two “Bessie” awards. She has produced eight commissioned evening-length works met with critical acclaim. She has toured nationally and internationally and been honored with, among others: Guggenheim Fellowship, NEFA’s National Dance Project grant, Princeton’s Hodder Fellowship, and Lower Manhattan Cultural Council’s Extended Life Artist in Residence.
Gill’s dances are serious, slow-moving, and chiseled; meditative experiences poised between performance and visual art. They feel like pressurized objects sustaining tension and seeking release. Paradoxically, her work is both intimate and alienated, sensual and ascetic. She dreams and visualizes her dances, transforming her unconscious into choreography.
