Michael Pestel is joined by students and butoh performer Taketeru Kudo in a performance of avian inspired improvisational performance and music.
BirdMachine is presented in conjunction with the Williams Center Gallery exhibition, Requiem: Ectopistes Migratorius and the Catalog of Extinct Birds. Artist Michael Pestel's mixed media exhibition marks the centennial of the death of the last known passenger pigeon Martha who died on September 1, 1914, and thus, the extinction of a species.
The exhibition is supported in part by an arts infusion grant funded by a generous grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation
