Open Spaces
Open Spaces is an annual site-specific dance performance featuring original works and repertoire.

Visitors will proceed through different Museum spaces to witness a sequence of performances, before joining a talk-back session with dancers and choreographers.

Music / Lexey
Spending more than half her lifetime behind the DJ decks and the other half playing the violin, Lexey combines her classically tuned ear with modern-day DJ-ing. Getting her start as a DJ in New York City in the early 2000s, Lexey was inspired by the ever-changing and diverse music and dance scene across the city. Digging through crates and growing her library and party rocking experience, she was invited to play events in Europe, Asia, South America, and the Caribbean. Continuing to evolve, Lexey leaned on her violin skills and now creates creative electric violin improvisation and covers to her own sets, adding an element of surprise!
