Valerie Green / Dance Entropy
Founded in 1998, Valerie Green/Dance Entropy believes in humanizing movement, both in Ms. Green’s critically acclaimed choreographic work and the company’s mission to plant creative seeds in communities across the world. Intersecting mortal and transcendent, sensual & sophisticated, visceral & self-aware, VG/DE invites the artist, the audience—the human—into a compelling, physical experience. Based out of its home studio, Green Space VG/DE combines performance & specialized outreach programs to inspire communities in cultural institutions throughout the world. As a professional nonprofit dance company, the communities we engage with have included at risk youth, adolescents, the chronically ill, trauma survivors, immigrants, senior citizens & aspiring/professional dancers. The VG/DE Misson: • Create a platform for multicultural understanding through dance • Nurture connections between dance creation & education • Build community among dance artists • Foster physicality, creativity & empowerment in underserved communities
