Arts
This week, we present a conversation with choreographer Alonzo King. He’s the artistic director of LINES Ballet, a contemporary dance company in San Francisco. He founded it in 1982, and has revolutionized the way we view dance. King’s choreography includes a blend of powerful and tender emotion, and unbelievable feats of athleticism. LINES Ballet looks and moves unlike any other ballet company, and King’s art has always spoken to the moment, politically and spiritually. On April 14, 2021, Alonzo King spoke with Steven Winn about his artistic process and the inspiration he took from his parents, who were both civil rights activists.
