Eiko will perform A Body on Wall Street in front of the Stock Exchange, the symbol of Capitalism. The performance is open to all viewers and pedestrians free of charge.

After 6 week run of Dansapce Project's PLATFORM this winter and the tours of the project this spring, Eiko will be back with River To River Festival. R2R hosted her A Body in A Station last summer at Fulton Center. This summer she will perform yet another application of her A Body in Places in two locations and will also show a video installation on Governors Island. All are free ticketed events.  More info.

A Body on Wall Street

A Body in Places is the omnibus title of Eiko’s solo project which involves going to a place of her choice, studying it and performing at the site without lighting, sound, and other theatrical conventions. Lower Manhattan is symbolic for a body relating to the larger capitalistic world. The body is fragile, unrecoverable, and irreplaceable – all of which is a stark contrast to the world of money and investment. Lower Manhattan also plays significant role in the history of immigration and immigrants – a group that Eiko belongs to and which connects her to the area.
