The National Portrait Gallery’s resident choreographer, Dana Tai Soon Burgess, concludes his residency with a new modern dance entitled “Transformations.” Performed by eight dancers, the 30-minute abstract piece is inspired by the work of the Transcendental Painting Group, active in Taos and Santa Fe, New Mexico, in 1938–1942. Pianist Dana Scott will perform an accompanying composition by Dane Rudhyar. Patricia Michaels, a leading fashion designer with Taos Pueblo roots, created the costumes.
