Dance: Past, Present, and Future with Jennifer Homans and Tamara Rojo | Institute for Advanced Study

On Friday, April 26, 2024, the Institute for Advanced Study’s Director and Leon Levy Professor David Nirenberg was joined by dance historian Jennifer Homans and Tamara Rojo, Artistic Director of the San Francisco Ballet, for a conversation on the place and practice of dance in the past, present, and future of our arts and culture. Nirenberg, Homans, and Rojo discussed the relationship that ballet has with its canon, how the present moment is shaping the evolution and animation of new dance forms, and how artificial intelligence can be used as a partner when composing ballets. They also considered the commonalities that might be found between ballet and IAS: both the discipline and the Institute push the boundaries of their respective practices, propelling the next generation of dancers and scholars forward.
