Live Arts in Museum Spaces
“Live Arts in Museum Spaces” with Hermitage National Curatorial Council Member Limor Tomer and The Ringling’s Curator of Performance Elizabeth Doud, Friday, February 23, 5pm: Traditionally the home of some of the world’s most valuable artistic treasures, museums have been repositories for visual art of all styles through the ages. But more recently, thanks to the efforts of innovative and forward-thinking curators like Hermitage Curatorial Council member Limor Tomer (pictured), museums are increasingly a site for contemporary, live performance as well. From theater and music to dance and other multidisciplinary art forms under Tomer’s leadership, The Metropolitan Museum (NYC) has hosted groundbreaking performance events in its auditorium as well its galleries and public spaces, giving birth to such interdisciplinary pieces as Gavin Creel’s Walk on Through: Confessions of a Museum Novice, experienced on the Hermitage Beach in 2022. Hear from a leader in this growing field about the unique challenges and opportunities of transforming these hallowed halls into community gathering spaces for performance. Registration is required at HermitageArtistRetreat.org ($5/person registration fee). John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, 5401 Bay Shore Rd, Sarasota, FL 34243
