Steven
Cohen culminates his research residency at Baryshnikov
Arts Center and CPR–Center
for Performance Research with a special presentation/performance
as part of Crossing the Line.
Knock ‘Em Dead is an evening of film, images, and
live performance that incorporates video fragments of some
of Cohen’s public interventions and draws inspiration from
the small cemeteries that survive in the “city that never
sleeps”. It aims to look at the idea of “motionlessness” and
silence in the noisy and actively congested Manhattan city
space. In a city defined by neighborhoods, Manhattan’s cemeteries
bridge racial, cultural, and religious boundaries—much like
Cohen’s own body of work. |
