April 25, 2019 – ‘WORKS AND PROCESS: REID BARTELME AND HARRIET JUNG’at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum (April 28-29, 7:30 p.m.). The exhibition “Hymn to Apollo: The Ancient World and the Ballets Russes,” which opened at N.Y.U.’s Institute for the Study of the Ancient World (ISAW) in March, connects the dots between antiquity and Sergei Diaghilev’s famed 20th-century modernist ballet troupe. At this iteration of the Guggenheim’s show-and-tell series, in partnership with ISAW, the prolific costume design team of Bartelme and Jung takes inspiration from that exhibition and applies it to designs for two commissioned works by the choreographers Netta Yerushalmy and Christopher Williams. Both use the story of “Daphnis and Chloe” as their point of departure — one literal and one abstract. Bartelme and Jung also perform.
