PALISSIMO Arts

About PALISSIMO Arts

Palissimo assembles artists of various disciplines to create cutting-edge work through research, risk-taking, and experimentation. The company's works use dance, sound, light, film, video and scenic design. Except for a few core members, the company collaborates with new artists for each project. This offers endless inventive collisions of background, training, and approach. PALISSIMO Arts considers its diversity a key attribute. It is a company dedicated to constantly shifting ground, questioning its status quo, and finding original solutions to new challenges. MISSION PALISSIMO Arts' mission is to attain artistic liberty in pursuit of communion/dialogue with the audience through live performances, research, and teaching. PALISSIMO Arts pursues artistic liberty by tying together disparate ideas and individuals, using the power of dance to transcend verbal communication and connect with audiences. By integrating sound, set design, dance, and video, Palissimo creates intelligent, innovative work, which is accessible to audiences without requiring them to learn a new "language" to understand. An audience member may lose the literal thread of the work, but still grasp the intrinsic meaning of the piece. In that moment of understanding, PALISSIMO Arts accomplishes its mission.
