Anna Kohler: MYTHO? Lure of Wildness

F/M to Delancey/Essex; B/D to Grand St.; M14A to Pitt St.


Conceived and performed by legendary downtown theater maker Anna Kohler, directed by Caleb Hammond, and featuring renowned performance artist Hapi Phace, MYTHO? immerses the audience in a unique sensory experience with aromas, three dimensional sound and media projection by Shaun Irons and Lauren Petty.

The work of Henri Matisse and Robert Bresson is a springboard for legendary downtown theater-maker Anna Kohler as she investigates the personal mythology of her own life and art.

MYTHO? examines the relationship between muse and creator, subject and object, model and artist and what is at the vital center of the creative mind. Through a combination of live performance, video, aromas and intimate, three dimensional sound, the audience is transported through Kohler’s memories. She recalls her own artistic awakening as a young model in France, and the audience experiences the work through the model’s lens – a world of heightened vulnerability and sensuality, immersed in a sensory experience of enhanced stimuli and vivid images.

Kohler and her director Caleb Hammond lead a team of exceptional artists including renowned performance artist Hapi Phace and video artists Shaun Irons and Lauren Petty.
