Richard Kennedy: Performance and Conversation

“Richard Kennedy: Performance and Conversation” with Hermitage Fellow Richard Kennedy, Wednesday, November 2 @ 6pm: Returning Hermitage Fellow Richard Kennedy is a genre-defying creator working across dance, opera, and visual art. Just as their career has spanned Broadway and gallery spaces, museums and clubs, New York and Berlin, their interdisciplinary work is “… at once light with a sensual joy and heavy with mournful emotion” (ARTnews). Their wide variety of skills challenges and invites an audience to reimagine more traditionally defined boundaries of art. In a program combining performance and conversation, Kennedy reveals selections of past and upcoming work while also providing contextual insight. Registration is required at HermitageArtistRetreat.org ($5/person registration fee). Presented in partnership with The Ringling Museum of Art in the Historic Asolo Theater, 5401 Bay Shore Rd., Sarasota, FL 34243
