From Verdant Gallery:
“Verdant Gallery is proud to announce Different Dances, a two-person exhibition featuring new monoprints by legendary choreographer Deborah Hay and a 10-year span of floral abstractions by Caroline Wright. The exhibition marks a major milestone: at 84, Hay, an original founder of the Judson Dance Theater, presents her first series of visual art prints in a gallery setting.
For six decades, Deborah Hay has been a pioneering figure in experimental postmodern dance. While globally recognized for her choreographic work, Different Dances presents a new series of fourteen monoprints created by Hay in 2026 at Flatbed Press. Much like her dance scores, these visual works rely on chance, spontaneous determination, and poetry. In dialogue with Hay’s prints are the rhythmically expressive paintings of midcareer artist Caroline Wright. For 20 years, Wright has brought movement and music to the visual field in her large canvases and collaborations with dancers and musicians. Wright’s latest work focuses on the moon, storytelling, and how, while mothering young children, an artist can only work by bringing all of it with her to the canvas.”
