Opening Reception: Alexandra Beaumont “The Choreography” | Rochester Art Center

Join us in the third floor conference room for a reception to celebrate Alexandra Beaumont’s new new large-scale installation created for the Rochester Art Center’s atrium. The artist will speak about her artwork at 1:00 PM. This event is free and open to all.

Rochester Art Center presents an exhibition by Minneapolis-based textile artist and dancer Alexandra Beaumont. The exhibition includes artworks from her 2024 series Techniques for Ecstasy and The Choreography, a new installation that expands on Beaumont’s research on dance floors as spaces of joy, community-building and resistance.

Beaumont’s textile and movement work explores personal and collective preservation, resistance, and expansion embracing the visual, kinetic, and metaphoric joy of parades and dance floors.
