Born in 1981, the year the AIDS epidemic began, performance artist Dan Fishback explores his own generation’s experience of death, sexuality and disease in his new solo piece, thirtynothing. Using visual work from lost gay artists as a springboard and backdrop, Fishback weaves stories from his own life through stories from theirs, creating an abstract theatrical landscape where the living and the dead can co-mingle and collaborate. thirtynothing is made possible through a grant from the Franklin Furnace Fund and a residency at Brooklyn Arts Exchange.
At each of these events, Dan will perform 30 minutes of thirtynothing on a bill with another BAX Artist-in-Residence. The 20th will feature choreographer Mina Nishimura, and the 23rd will feature theater artist Catherine Dill. The performances will be followed by a discussion, catered with free cupcakes and champagne!
