Joyce Unleashed: Elina Pirinen
The Joyce moves beyond its Chelsea walls with these engagements designed to give audiences the chance to see cutting-edge artists performing in intimate spaces.
Finnish artist Elina Pirinen makes her U.S. debut with her award-winning trio, Personal Symphonic Moment. In this on-stage autopsy of Dmitri Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 7, declared in 1942 to be an indictment of Fascism, Pirinen uses a personal approach to examine the concept of living within the current “zeitgeist,” leading to an exploration of eroticism, shame, danger and excess. The result is a raw and arresting work.
Performances take place at New York Live Arts.
