Perpetual Motion: Abraham Walkowitz Draws Isadora Duncan
March 7 - June 24, 2022

PRESS RELEASE
DUNCAN DANCE CHICAGO @ MADRON GALLERY
Available Artworks

Madron Gallery’s Perpetual Motion explores the natural inclination of disparate artists and art forms to intertwine, inspire, and transform one another. Twelve of Walkowitz's original drawings are exhibited alongside a filmed 2016 performance of Varshavianka, a work Duncan choreographed in 1924. The piece was presented by the Department of Fine and Performing Arts at Loyola University Chicago; it was staged and coached by Jennifer Sprowl of Duncan Dance Chicago, who is both a professional dancer and Duncan historian. In keeping with the spirit of 2022 as the #YearofChicagoDance, Sprowl will give a live demonstration and talk on Duncan at Madron Gallery this June 12th, at 2:00 PM.
