Cofounded in 2009 by Jonah Bokaer (Chez Bushwick) and John Jasperse (Thin Man Dance), the Center for Performance Research is dedicated to “supporting artistic processes that integrate visual design, installation, and technology.” On May 19, CPR will host its sixth anniversary celebration in its LEED-certified green home in Williamsburg, an evening of food, drink, mingling, and movement. The night begins at 6:30 with a cocktail reception, followed by an hour of film and performance, consisting of Joanna Kotze’s Find Yourself Here — Duet, in which she is joined by Stuart Singer; Niall Jones’s not titled; and Mono No Aware’s Figures of Motion, a collection of 8mm and 16mm dance shorts: Michele Cappello’s I Thought I Knew, Laura Bartczak’s Kym, Daniel Lupo’s Meet Me, Katie Fleming’s Behind the Front Lines, Colby Sadeghi’s Madelyn, and Rachael Abernathy’s POW. Then the festivities kick into high gear with a postshow party.
