Live Performance: 4-5 pm
Gallery MC 549 W. 52nd Street, Ground Floor Gallery (between 10th & 11th avenues)
Ensemble Ipse will present The Ways In Which, a collaborative installation project exploring divergent themes of isolation. Created by composer Joseph Di Ponio, visual artist Catherine Katsafouros and performer Margaret Lancaster, this work is part of Ensemble Ipse’s innovative SiteWorks series.
The Ways In Which unfolds in a landscape where movement, sound, image, and presence continually shift in response to space and time. The multi-media installation will run uninterrupted from 11 am – 4 pm. At 4 pm, Lancaster will navigate the installation in a live one-hour performative exploration of 5 disparate modalities of isolation (social isolation, shelter, political isolation, confinement, sanctuary).
This is not a concert. It is a porous encounter.
Free and open to the public. Reception to follow each performance.

ONE SYSTEM is taking their shininess to Wesleyan’s Ring Hall (Middletown, CT), Thursday, March 27th, 7 PM.
In May, the world lost the equally brilliant and dear Larry Polansky. I am still shocked and heartbroken, but honored to be a part of a concert honoring him on what would have been his 70th birthday, October 16, 2024. It will be an amazing cross section of his work. Near the bay area? Please drop by The Lab.
