Session Description
Join Dance/USA for the 2013 Dance Forum exploring our nation's shifting demographics and its influence on dance presenters and artists. The face of America is changing. The nation's growing ethnic and racial diversity is an increasingly prominent factor in US culture, politics, and economics. The art world is particularly at risk, relying heavily on a primarily white audience that is steadily dwindling. Arts organizations in general, and dance in particular, must address issues of diversity and inclusivity and respond to a changing demographic. (APAP/NYC registration not required.)

Session Description
There is a new, arguably more exciting mode of opera creation that has come to light in the 21st century. A younger generation of composers is creating works that are chamber-size, multi-media, contemporary, and often engaged with the social and political context within which they reside. Their aesthetic is inclusive, and is comprised of the multiple musical and visual influences with which they grew up including folk, rock, metal, musical, and world influences as well as film and theater. Join us for a panel that includes composers, artists, producers and presenters as we discuss this new body of work and how it can tour to your venue.

Session Description
Contemporary performance practice is at a distinct crossroads. The co-existence and cross-pollination of idea- and-technique-based performance practice has created a dynamic dialogue within the performing arts field. This session will focus on the ways in which curatorial practice in performance is evolving in the face of new technologies and a newfound interest in performance in a museum context (including examples from the Whitney Biennial, Eiko & Koma's Retrospective Project, and the MoMA performance program curated by Ralph Lemon). Curators of performance can learn from curatorial practices in the visual art field. Curatorial practice in performance can also provide context for the many different kinds of performance happening in the U.S. today.
