Afterword featured in Downbeat
Afterword, the multimedia opera being created by Mellon Fellows George Lewis, Sean Griffin and Catherine Sullivan is featured in the current issue of Downbeat.
Catherine Sullivan works in a variety of media including film and theater. Her work is concerned with the psychic dilemmas of the performer and the historical and stylistic regimes that mediate our reception of performance. She has produced several performances, theater works and films wherein the performers are often coping with written texts, stylistic economies, re-enactments of historic performances, gestural and choreographic regimes, and conceptual orthodoxies.
