In the solo performance Eddie Brown, Effie Bowen uses exertion, restriction, and self-objectification to research "something about embarrassment." Located deliberately somewhere between confident and insecure, proud and shamed, Eddie Brown surrounds masculine, balletic, and athletic identities without fully surrendering to one. Daily public rehearsals will call attention to queer labor, thematics and the decay of attention. Watch you watch me watching you.
About the Artist:
Effie Bowen is a dance artist in New York. She is a contributing editor to the Movement Research Performance Journal, contributing writer for BOMB and Interview Magazine and a 2014 Chez Bushwick artist in residence. Effie instigates gender and formalism through the medium of dance and has recently shown work at Danspace Project, Lake Studios Berlin and Center for Performance Research. Since graduating with a BA/BFA in Dance from Hollins University, she has performed with Jen Rosenblit, Katy Pyle's BALLEZ, and Kim Brandt, in addition to visual art performances at Frieze, the Whitney Biennial, and Surviving Sandy. This November, she will show Eddie Brown in a shared evening at Dixon Place.
