New York Live Arts Announces New Season

The 2013-14 season of New York Live Arts will include more than 100 performances and more than 40 artists, with a high volume of international artists in dance, theater and visual arts. The new season from the movement-based arts company was announced Friday by Bill T. Jones, the group's executive artistic director, and Carla Peterson, its artistic director.

The season will begin Sept. 23 with “The Inkomati (Dis)cord,” a dance theater work by Boyzie Cekwana, a dancer from South Africa, and Panaibra Canda, a dancer from Mozambique. From Nov. 12-17, the choreographer Jérôme Bel and Zurich's Theater Hora will perform “Disabled Theater,” a collaborative dance-performance work enacted by learning-disabled adults, in a co-presentation with Performa for Performa 13.

Other international productions include “Ha!” (Sept. 27-28), an exploration of madness by the Bouchra Ouizguen of Morocco; and the French dancer-choreographer Jeanne Mordoj's multidisciplinary work “La Poème” (Oct. 11-12). Works by the Serbian artists Sasa Asentic and Ana Vujanovic and the French artists Alain Buffard and Maud Le Pladec will also be among those making their American premieres.

From April 7-13,  the Trisha Brown Dance Company will be in residence at New York Live Arts for a series of performances, discussions and classes. The performances will include two works from Ms. Brown's Unstable Molecular Structure cycle: “Opal Loop/Cloud Installation #72503” and “Son of Gone Fishin',” with music by Robert Ashley.

“Our season, taken as a whole, draws a revealing picture of what is among the most exciting, delightful and exhilarating expressions of our time,” Ms. Peterson said in a statement. Tickets and more information are available at www.newyorklivearts.org and (212) 924-0077.

An earlier version of this post misspelled the surname of a French dancer-choreographer. She is Jeanne Mordoj, not Morodoj.
