Encounter the exhilarating physicality of dance as it is presented on screen in 24 Frames Per Second, a dynamic and ambitious exhibition exploring the nexus between film, dance and the visual arts.

When

26 May to 1 July 2017

Access

Originally commissioned by Carriageworks over three years, this presentation platforms artists working at the forefront of experimental and cross-disciplinary practice: from intimate expression to shared ritual, classical aesthetic to cultural heritage, and studio space to spectacular landscape.

Don’t miss Physical Forces, three days of genre-bending dance programs celebrating the opening of 24 Frames Per Second, 25-27 May.

This project was commissioned by Carriageworks and assisted by the Australian Government through the Australia Council for the Arts, its arts funding and advisory body.
