The Weaving Series

The Weaving Series are a number of choreographic works created in memory of visual artist, professor, gallery owner, and weaver Dennis Friend (1943-1976.) Mr. Friend died of Anthrax in January of 1976 from contaminated Pakistani wool used in his weaving. He was 32 and his daughter was six weeks old. Ms. Friend has currently finalized the third piece in the series; upon completion the entire Weaving Series will consist of 32 works in honor of Mr. Friends years. It is a life-long project where the possibility for new works continues to expand choreographically, philosophically, technologically, and the narrative is endless.
