| Headline: | Choreographer |
| Description: | Valerie Green became interested in dance as a child growing up in Cleveland, Ohio. In 1998 she formed Valerie Green/Dance Entropy, adding a permanent home for the company in 2005 - GREEN SPACE- in Long Island City, Queens. Ms. Green’s choreography has been presented at festivals and venues throughout New York City including La Mama, Performance Mix and Dance Now @ Joyce Soho, Movement Research at Judson Church, Draft Work at St. Mark's Church, Oasis at Chashama, Mulberry St. Theater’s New Steps, Dance Now @ Dance Theater Workshop, Tribeca Performing Arts Center, University Settlement, the 92nd St. Y, Hunter College, Context, The Flea, Cunningham Studio, Dixon Place, Hudson Guild Theater and St. Sava Cathedral. Additionally her work has appeared in less formal venues and public spaces such as parks, art galleries, and studios. Valerie spent several years working on the International circuit. Among the festivals where she taught and performed are: Chandigarh Institute of Performing Arts, India, Italy’s Meeting Anti-Razista, Trulo Arts Center, Ostuni, Le Regard du Cygne, Paris, The Avignon Fringe Festival, and Toronto, Canada’s Fringe Festival of Independent Dance Artists. Her company, Dance Entropy, toured her evening- length show, Homeland-Inner Side throughout Serbia in 2001, which led to additional teaching engagements with various cultural institutions in Belgrade. Additional work in Europe includes a teaching engagements as part of Croatia’s TEST! Theater Festival in Zagreb and performances at The National Theater in Mostar, Bosnia, The National Theater of Belgrade, Serbia, the World Dance Congress in Argos, Greece, and the Body Navigation Festival in St. Petersberg, Russia. As a guest artist, Valerie has received commissions from Texas State University, BITEF Theater in Belgrade, Serbia, and Theater Alternativa in Tirana, Albania. She has also taught at the University of Las Vegas, Texas State University, LaGuardia Community College, University of Nanterre, France, and at the Faculty of Drama & Art in Belgrade, Serbia and Sarajevo, Bosnia. She has received funding from the SOROS Foundation, CEC ArtsLink, the American Embassy’s of Serbia and Bosnia, The Puffin Foundation, Independence Community Foundation, The Queens Community Arts Fund and the Queens Independent Artist Initiative. Valerie’s choreographic work and teaching style is influenced by her formative years working with the Erick Hawkins Dance Company and her undergraduate work at University of Wisconsin-Madison. Valerie has performed for many New York based choreographers, including H.T. Chen & Dancers, Poppo & the GoGo Boys The Wellspring Project, Dura Mater, Nancy Meehan & Dancers, Katherine Howard, Gloria McClean/LifeDance and The Phyllis Rose Dance Company. Dance Entropy is a professional modern dance company that abstracts the potential chaos of the body and creates order through expressive movement reflecting the world within which we live. The word “Entropy” refers to the tendency towards disorder in a social system and chaos in motion. Dance Entropy supports my vision as Artistic Director where by I create stage and site-specific work. A significant part of my mission is to perform works in locations and communities where the content of the work will have the greatest impact. The performances, workshops, and collaborative creations of Dance Entropy and Green Space, the company’s New York City and community home, maintain the following goals: * Create a platform for multicultural understanding * Nurture artistic and educational connections * Build trust within and amongst program participants. * For individuals, develop new levels of self awareness and empowerment |
