We’re excited to present this year’s festival image for La MaMa Moves! 2011, opening May 24 and taking place in all our venues.
This year’s image is of Joan Finkelstein, who is being honored at our benefit performance on May 24 and was created by the very talented artist and designer Kanan Shah. The image will be featured on the La MaMa Moves! program, festival guide, and street banner.
This is the second year that La MaMa has commissioned an original illustration for the La MaMa Moves! Dance Festival. Last year, the artistic duo Telephone and Soup (i.e. Kasey Sciezscka and Steven Weinberg) contributed the silhouette portrait of Ellen Stewart.
