“Women, Modernism, and Philip Johnson” brings new attention to the overlooked subject of architect Philip Johnson’s associations with some of the women who embraced and promoted modernism from the 1930s through the 1950s. The early generations of women modernists—especially those who studied at the Cambridge [MA] School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture (1916–42) or Harvard’s Graduate School of Design (beginning in 1942 when women were first allowed to enroll)—had ample opportunities for connections with Johnson as he formulated his own concepts of modernism. 

His varied roles—co-curator of the “International Style” exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in 1932 and director of their Architecture Department from 1932-34; graduate student at Harvard’s Graduate School of Design, 1940–43; and modernist architect—led to memorable and inspirational meetings. For example, meetings at his “thesis” house of 1942 at 9 Ash Street in Cambridge were considered the “chief attraction” on Friday afternoons for students.

Noli Timere is a soaring aerial dance performance, born from a five-year collaboration between Guggenheim Fellowship Award-winning director and choreographer Rebecca Lazier and world-renowned sculptor Janet Echelman. It features eight multidisciplinary performers dancing up to 25 feet in the air within a voluminous, custom-designed Echelman net sculpture, and is choreographed to an original score by French Canadian composer Jorane, who performs live on stage.

This fusion of contemporary dance, avant-garde circus, and sculpture explores the delicate interconnectedness and fragility of our world, offering a profound commentary on navigating our unstable ecosystem through art and advanced engineering.

Noli Timere – Latin for "be not afraid" – uniquely renders interconnectedness visible and tangible, illustrating how even the smallest change in one element can create a cascading effect throughout a system, like the “Butterfly Effect.” The design incorporates two 40 x 40-foot net sculptures suspended by a sophisticated rigging system on eight corners, which radically transform as performers fly and fall. This seamless interaction between movement and sculpture creates symbiotic relationships where choreography and sculpture continually transform and reshape one another.

This performance runs 60 minutes.
