Summary: Companihia de Danca Deborah Colker triumphantly returns to New York after an absence of 10 years. The renowned Brazillian dance company will perform 4 Por 4 at New York’s City Center from October 22-25th. The works presented in Deborah Colker’s 4 Por 4 aim to push boundaries of what we all know as dance. Combining physically daring feats with visually exciting designs, Deborah Colker's work is the result of her willingness to experiment with different mediums. The first Brazilian to win London’s prestigious Olivier Award, the internationally acclaimed choreographer uses modern dance to challenge notions of space and gravity. Colker also has the distinction of being the first woman to write, direct, and choreograph a Cirque du Soleil show. “OVO” is currently playing to sold out audiences in Montreal. From “Corners” and “Table” to “Some People” and “Vases,” 4 Por 4 (Four by Four) is a vibrant and sensual evening-length production that transforms imagery from the works of four Brazilian artists into kinetic dance concoctions.
