New work by choreographer Sidra Bell

For the first time in MET history, live performance is an integral part of a major exhibition. Join us each week in the Performance Pyramid— embedded within the exhibition Flight into Egypt: Black Artists and Ancient Egypt 1876–Now—to experience music, dance, and performance art that draw on ancient Egyptian themes.

In her new work entitled G R A P H, choreographer and dancer Sidra Bell studies the relationship between existentialism and Black liberation, using the artwork presented in Flight into Egypt as a departure point for a dance that transmits ascendency, power and spirituality.
