Enjoy movement and music with performances and dance workshops by Pilobolus, an American modern-dance company known for its combination of dance and acrobatic choreography using the human body, and close-up innovative video portraits of the troupe created by Bo Gehring. Visitors may work with Gehring on their own video portrait, which will be projected on a screen and immediately shareable.
