Paula Hunter & JUMP!

0 (Women)

Paula Hunter is a performance artist/choreographer and founder of the young person’s dance company, JUMP! She has enlivened the midtown Chashama windows in her “I am Karen Finley” – a work in which she dances nonstop while covering herself in junk food. She’s appeared at the Kitchen, DTW, PS 122, and throughout the U.S.

Paula Hunter and JUMP!’s new work: 0 (Women) is a relay dance performed along 14th Street by young dancers in white with large zeros on their backs signifying the jobs that women have never held in the U.S. Viewers will notice the obvious – there has never been a woman U.S. President ¬– and the less obvious positions–Artistic Director: NYC Ballet¬– that women have never held. At once a political commentary and a celebration of endurance dance, 0 (Women) hopes to make a lasting impression.
