This week, two artists who expand our ideas about beauty, risk, mobility, and inclusion. Wheelchair dancer and esteemed choreographer Alice Sheppard, and MacArthur Genius Award-winning action architect Elizabeth Streb. What difference does art make? Should art-making be a human right? What will it take to disable the limits society puts around “normal”? Music Featured: “How Do You Feel?” by Vanessa Daou from her “Welcome to My Blues: Anthology (1994-2017)” released on Daou Music in conjunction with Kidd Recordings.
