Revisions in Time

Joining Cal Performances’ ReVisions series with the Arts Research Center’s Time Zones research on hybrid art practice, Revisions in Time presents two bracing public dialogues bringing together artists, critics, and curators to engage the work of UC Berkeley visiting artists. Explore contemporary work that challenges the conventional parameters of music, literature, dance, and theater.
