Collin Chua was also very helpful during a period when Tony was on leave; thank you, Collin.

  • OTIS WALKS INTO the WOODS, 9' DIRECTORS: Derrick Belcham
    TITLE: OTIS WALKS INTO THE WOODS, 9' DIRECTORS: Derrick Belcham, Emily Terndrup WRITERS: Derrick Belcham, Emily Terndrup MUSIC WRITTEN AND PERFORMED: Mary Lattimore PRODUCER: The Philip Johnson Glass House, A Story Told Well and Ghostly International CHOREOGRAPHY AND PERFORMANCES: Emily Terndrup, Maxwell Perkins OVERVIEW: Otis Walks In The Woods depicts the dynamic relationship of power, possession and otherness within a transparent environment. Set within the historic landmark, The Philip Johnson Glass House, the dancers are at once within and without the glass enclosure, oscillating between the frustrating realities of the banality of their present and the idealizations of the outside world. The architecture of the grounds becomes the anchoring metaphor for the pair's dual states of rigidity and flow. Within the seemingly fixed and defined walls of the main structure, the minds of the dancers are explored in an excerpt of their complexity. BIOS: Derrick Belcham is a Canadian filmmaker based out of Brooklyn, NY whose internationally-recognized work in documentary and music video has lead him to work with such artists as Philip Glass, Steve Reich, Laurie Anderson, Paul Simon and hundreds of others in music, dance, theater and architecture. He has created works and lectured at such institutions as MoMA PS1, MoCA, The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, The Whitney Museum Of American Art, Musee D'Art Contemporain, The Philip Johnson Glass House, Brooklyn Academy of Music and The Contemporary Arts Center of Cincinnati. His work regularly appears in publications such as The New York Times, Vogue, Pitchfork, NPR and Rolling Stone as well as being screened at short, dance and experimental festivals and retrospectives around the world.
