Beth Gill 

Beth Gill is an award winning choreographer based in New York City since 2005. Her multidisciplinary works are captivating, cinematic timescapes, the product of long term collaborations with celebrated artists. Gill’s dances are serious, slow moving, and chiseled; meditative experiences poised between performance and visual art. Paradoxically her work is both intimate and alienated, sensual and ascetic. She dreams and visualizes her dances, transforming her unconscious into iconographic choreography.

Gill is the proud recipient of the Herb Alpert, Doris Duke Impact, Foundation for Contemporary Art and two “Bessie” awards. She has been honored with (among others): Guggenheim Fellowship, NEFA’s National Dance Project grant, Princeton’s Hodder Fellowship and Lower Manhattan Cultural Council’s Extended Life Artist in Residence.
