Joining the likes of DJ Spooky and Alarm Will Sound, Andrea Miller (Gallim Dance) will be the 2017–2018 Artist in Residence at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, creating works that engage with the Museum’s galleries and spaces. In Stone Skipping, a site-specific dance work for The Temple of Dendur, Miller will explore the Temple’s journey from Egypt to New York City and mankind’s environmental footprint.
