From the most experimental choreography to classical ballet, Bay Area dance is moving outdoors for the summer in a spectacular way. The indoor experiences promise to expand your horizons too, ranging from aerial dance to a romp inside the historic home of the late sculptor David Ireland.

Here are a few performances worth catching this summer.

萨拉·谢尔顿·曼(Sara Shelton Mann)是1990年代有影响力的艺术集体违禁品的领导者,是一名舞者,诗人,治疗师和强烈的萨满演员。她曾在六月的梅森堡艺术与文化中心居住,并为海滨校园充满了舞蹈,声音和仪式。居住在夏至上以“ 7次发掘 /在岸边和世界边缘的边缘”达到顶峰,这是一晚性能,涉及一些海湾地区最引人注目的实验性表演者。

‘Home(in)stead’

当旧金山艺术家戴维·爱尔兰(David Ireland)于2009年去世时,他离开了500 Capp St.(也许是他最著名的艺术品)的房子,里面充满了异想天开的雕塑,例如两个由剥离的墙纸制成的牛馅饼和一个由吹风机制成的吊灯。

The home has welcomed artists in residence since 2021, but Megan Lowe and Johnny Huy Nguyen are taking things to new dimensions as the first dance artists in residence. In an hour-long tour open to just 10 audience members at a time, they’ll dance to live music by San Francisco-based musician Peekaboo.

下午5点和8点6月24日至25日和7月1日至25日星期五至周六;下午4点和7点6月26日星期日和7月3日。$ 20- $ 150,没有人因缺乏资金而转身。观众限制每场表演10。S.F. Capp St. 500的David Ireland House415-872-9240。www.500cappstreet.org

Kiandanda舞蹈剧院

Chanel “Byb” Bibene, director of Oakland’s Kiandanda Dance Theater, hails from the Republic of Congo, where a curious variety of resistance to poverty and oppression has arisen in the form of dandily dressed men who call themselves Sapeurs, part of the Society of Tastemakers of Elegant People.

萨普尔(Sapeurs)在西方的地位时尚象征中的华丽自我风格是有效的反抗或具有讽刺意味的行为吗?Bibene与最初来自刚果的另外两位表演者在旧金山国际艺术节夏季系列赛的一部分“宗教Kitendi:着装要求”中探讨了这一点。

晚上8点7月1日星期五至周五。$ 16- $ 20。ODC剧院,S.F。3153 17th St.415-399-9554。www.sfiaf.org

In 2020, the Djerassi Resident Artists Program, which offers artists extended time creating on 583 beautiful acres of redwood forests and grasslands east of Palo Alto, awarded a special residency combining art and science to Bay Area choreographer Krista DeNio and biologist Chloe Crotzer. Disrupted from their original timetable by COVID, the two used the delays to go deep, consulting with the land’s native Ramaytush Ohlone to gain an Indigenous perspective and giving work-in-progress showings drawing people into the environment.
