ReSIDENT CURATOR
Arien Wilkerson IS THE visionarY behind Judson’s Notes Towards series.
Notes Towards is an ongoing experimental performance art and dance series that celebrates Black, radical, moving, dismantling, and subverted avant-garde experimental work. Centering Black queer, non-binary, and trans artists, this season promises to captivate audiences with immersive, transformative experiences and thought-provoking, boundary-pushing performances that highlight the variegated perspectives and experiences within the Black queer and trans community. Notes Towards has become a cornerstone of Judson Arts, opening up the gate for artists to be seen, programmed, and allowed to engage with new audiences as they explore and express their one-of-a-kind visions through an abundant variety of artistic performance mediums.
OUR VISION for curation extends beyond just the Notes Towards program. We believe in programming where we acknowledge the meanings of different voices not only from New York but also in surrounding areas, nationally, and internationally. The works that we curate also share and acknowledge that allyship is required to make work in this rapidly irregular political economy. Our vision is motivated by a desire to further deepen collective relationships through experimental performance, archives, and technology to dismantle (shift/dream/manifest) the erasure of the communities not often acknowledged in arts programming.
