NEW MUSEUM ANNOUNCES CAMILO GODOY AS 2023-2024 ARTTIST-IN-RESIDENCE

For the 2023–24 Residency, artist Camilo Godoy will use movement to experiment with the representation of mourning and survival. His choreographic exploration will draw on dance histories as well as his own archive of gestures sourced from ancient erotic art, colonial visual culture, pornography, medicine, and dance rehearsals. Inviting the public to join this evolving process, Godoy will engage audiences through interactive workshops, performances, and discussions.

 

The New Museum's Artist Residency program supports artists working across education and performance to create new, participatory projects with the New Museum's diverse audiences. Across workshops, conversations, and performances, New Museum Artists-in-Residence have interacted with the community through transdisciplinary methods including dance, storytelling, medicinal dialogue, animation, lectures, musical performances, and installations. Past participants of the program include Jeffrey Gibson, Paul Ramirez Jonas, Simone Leigh, Shaun Leonardo, Kameelah Janan Rasheed, Sable Elyse Smith, Chris E. Vargas, and Ilya Vidrin, among many others.
