Visions & Voices: A System in Collapse Is a System Moving Forward

Before passing away as a result of AIDS in 1988, photographer, choreographer, and dancer Arnie Zane said to his artistic and life partner Bill T. Jones, “A system in collapse is a system moving forward.”

Spanish dancer Aimar Pérez Galí and Venezuelan dancer Daniel Méndez Piña will perform an original piece named after that quote.
