His works include Already Unmade—an unmaking of his own dance archive— at the ICA\, London; The Whitney Museum of American Art\, New York; the Rockbund Art Museum\, Shanghai; and Fondation Galeries Lafayette\, Paris. In collaboration with Karthik Pandian\, Atlas Unlimited\, a series of exhibitions weaving sculpture and vocal performance was featured at the PERFORMA19 Performance Biennial.

SUMMARY:Zero Station — Molly Lieber and Eleanor Smith
DESCRIPTION:Zero Station\nMolly Lieber and Eleanor Smith\n\nJune 12\, 7:30pm – 8:30pm\nFlamboyan Theater\, The Clemente\nRSVPs recommended \nAll events in the River To River Festival are free and all are welcome \nRSVP Here! \n–\nZero Station works out shame\, citing a felt understanding as part of the experience of abjection. Confronting hypersexualization as the limp white feminine byproduct of capitalism\, we present movements derived from pregnancy\, lactation\, mental illness\, physical illness\, surgery\, and aging\, and then segment\, otherize\, and disappear these forms in trash. Through trauma we are greatly affected\, and our capacity to be affected\, to understand how we may affect one another\, is heightened. Within this gained fluidity is potential to think beyond ourselves. \nChoreography and Performance by Molly Lieber and Eleanor Smith. \nPresented in partnership with The Clemente Soto Velez Cultural Center. \nSupported by Dance Reflections by Van Cleef & Arpels. \n–\nMolly Lieber & Eleanor Smith have collaborated somatically since 2006 to create feminist statements that strive to break down heteropatriarchal racism and sexism through abstract dances that denounce the hypersexualization of the white ciswoman and speak out through her. Our non-hierarchical methodology processes content by filtering information between us; feelings are recognized and recreated physically through energetic transference and psychoanalytically through communication and mirroring. Practices of reciprocal recognition combat shame\, reverse the subordinating impact of rape\, and work in conjunction with comrade feminist scholars and artists to disarm neoliberal capitalism’s upholding of the race and gender binary system. Our 7 collaborations premiered in NYC where we are committed to building sustainability for artists and directly serving marginalized families through lactation work\, reproductive justice\, and somatic improvisation workshops.
