Veta Goler, division coordinator for arts and humanities and associate professor of dance at Spelman College, will deliver an Emory Friends of Dance Lecture, “Love Poems to God: The Contemplative Artistry of Dianne McIntyre.”
Dianne McIntyre distinguished herself as a choreographer by creating dance works through improvisation and as her career continued to unfold, she turned to spirituality as a major theme. In this talk, Goler will discuss McIntyre as a contemplative artist whose creative approaches are based in accessing the present moment, one who explores experiences of spirituality in daily life, and one whose works help viewers to connect with a deep place within themselves.
