THE RUNNING PROJECT: BLACK GLADIATOR explores the dichotomy of freely living and expressing oneself while being objectified by white capitalistic systems of oppression. It will look at the black experience as gladiatorism, the violent exploitation of the black body, and experience for the entertainment and profit of society.
Morgan Bobrow-Williams is an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary, conceptual and performance artist creating work at the intersection of movement/dance, live performance, music, film, photography, collage, sculpture, and installation. Born and raised in Augusta, Georgia and moved to New York City to attend Marymount Manhattan College from 2014-2018 and received a BFA in Dance Performance. After college Morgan moved to Germany to be a company member with Johannes Wieland Dance Company from 2018-2020.
In January 2020 Morgan began the conceptualization of The Running Project (TRP), a research and development piece that lives as a continuous and evolving gallery of interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary artworks and live performances, centered on developing vocabulary that engages with and investigates the multi-dimensional embodiment of the BIPOC identity running. As the initiation for TRP they were a 2020 Tanz Farm Artist in Residence and will continue with a second residency this Spring 2021.
