Isreali Choreographers Showcase Their Work @ 92ndY

After having seen Israeli choreographer, Ohan Naharin's "Minus 16" performed by the amazing Alvin Ailey Co., I was anticipating avant garde works from the Out of Israel 2015, program. The tickets were only $10 for the hour program, but I found it disappointing.  (Still, $10 for an hour live dance program is a bargain.)  The 1st piece, Teaser by Dana Katz, had 3 dances.  Katz was among the dancers. The mannequin like stances were interspersed with robotic, sporadic movements.   Cryptic comments were spoken by the dancers.  This piece had originality, a tense dynamic and a bit of whimsy.  I enjoyed the visual art projection that followed the dancing. The other piece by Idan Porges, "Too Hot To Handle" was intriguing with a pastiche of dance styles.  The movements on the floor were sensual with a dreamlike quality.  Porges used music by Rachmaninov which provided both a romantic & lyrical quality to the dancing.  The other two works on the program were interchangeable and forgettable aside from the athleticism of the dancers.  According to the program "Tel Aviv-based choreographers are showing the rest of the world why Israel is the current hub of of boundary-breaking contemporary dance."  I don't agree. Do see works by Israeli choreographer, Ohad Naharin.
