Newman Center Presents

A contemporary dance company galvanized by Black culture and history, presenting their full-length work “An Untitled Love,” set to the music of D’Angelo.

Dance company A.I.M by Kyle Abraham present their full-length work “An Untitled Love”, set to the music of D’Angelo. The mission of A.I.M by Kyle Abraham is to create a body of dance-based work that is galvanized by Black culture and history. The work, informed by and made in conjunction with artists across a range of disciplines, entwines a sensual and provocative vocabulary with a strong emphasis on music, text, video, and visual art. While grounded in choreographer Kyle Abraham’s artistic vision, A.I.M draws inspiration from a multitude of sources and movement styles. 

About Kyle Abraham: A 2013 MacArthur Fellow who began his training in Pittsburgh, was labeled as the “best and brightest creative talent to emerge in New York City in the age of Obama” back in 2011 by OUT Magazine. His choreography has been presented throughout the world. In 2020, The New York Times raved on “how skilled he has become at mingling the ballet vernacular with other forms, from hip-hop to West African movement” and his unique talent for “finding the person within the dancer and the bodies within a body.” Abraham currently sits on the advisory board for Dance Magazine and in 2020 was selected to be the magazine’s first Guest Editor.
