Brian Sanders' Junk Details
The Experience
If the hit decorating show Trading Spaces were doing an episode styled somewhere between the Addams Family and the Munsters, it could study Brian Sanders’ new Junk Space. Designer Pedro Silva made wall sconces of plumbing pipe and made the ceiling-hung throne from a giant camera frame. Excluding the upended car sunk into the floor, his fantastical rigging is mostly from industrial parts left in Junk’s new Wood Street digs.
Sanders, whose props have always included found objects like chain link fence, tire tube tutus, bungees and Astroturf, could be called the “Dumpster Diver of Dance.” Starting in the late spring of 2003, Junk, the space, hosts Junk, the dance company, each weekend night at 8 p.m. In spiked hair and heels, Junk’s dancers give an aerial and floor show that could make your hair stand on end as well.
History
Princeton-born Sanders celebrates 10 years with MOMIX — choreographing for himself, MOMIX, Koresh Dance Company and others. Sanders’ dances cum physical theater works are well known internationally through MOMIX’s touring. As they do with David Parson’s Caught, audiences return whenever Sanders’ 1996 ingenious, swimlike Underwater Study #5 is on the program.
