Leonora Carrington and the Theatre: Susan Aberth and Double Edge

March 2, 2021 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

On March 7th at 3 pm, we will livestream a conversation between DE Artistic Director Stacy Klein and renowned Surrealist scholar Dr. Susan L. Aberth, Edith C. Blum Professor of Art History and Visual Culture at Bard College with visual references of Carrington’s artwork and our performance of Leonora, la maga y la maestra. Aberth’s books Leonora Carrington: Surrealism, Alchemy and Art (Lund Humphries) and the recently published The Tarot of Leonora Carrington (Fulgur Press) are profoundly influential on DE’s work into the world of Leonora Carrington.

This event is a special treat to our audience in preparation for the broadcast and online world premiere streaming of Leonora, la maga y la maestra on March 14 at 8pm for PEAK HD in partnership with ALL ARTS. You can watch the conversation live on HowlRound TV or on Double Edge’s Facebook page on March 7 at 3pm.

Event Navigation

Double Edge Theatre acknowledges and recognizes the Indigenous People – the Nipmuc and the Mohican, who have been present and lived on these lands for millennia, and whose travel and cultivation of this land we now benefit from.

We lift up the legacy of the countless peoples of African descent whose blood, bones, bodies, brilliance, and unpaid labor also built and sustained these lands.

Truth, reconciliation, rematriation, and healing will only come with acknowledgment as a first step, followed by cultural and economic reparations and other restorative actions.

Read our full acknowledgement and take action here.

On the platform of Art Justice, we build equity and solidarity with the deliberation and intentionality. This commitment includes the artists with whom we collaborate; the neighbors with whom we trade or work; our residency and training participants; and the consultants who helped to guide us. The mission / values / vision / work of Double Edge will always reflect the larger population of our region / our state / our country. Our people, our Ensemble, our collaborators identify themselves rather than being defined by others. Double Edge protects the silence of our internal space, while simultaneously ensuring that no one is silenced.
