Alessandra Ganz

Alessandra Ganz is a senior at Barnard College studying Dance and Studio Architecture. She is a dancer, choreographer, dance teacher, and visual artist with a keen interest in combining her architectural design and physical practices.

As a student artist in residence, Al is excited to explore various methods of live feed and video projections to incorporate into her Senior Creative Thesis, a contemporary solo choreographed by Vim Vigor’s Jason Cianciulli and Shannon Gillen. She also looks forward to experimenting with architectural drawings and logic-driven choreography in the Movement Lab. As a student of architecture in a world facing climate crisis, Al is working toward unpacking our human relationship with the built environment as well as developing strategies to combat environmental destruction through art. Al has a passion for drawing, painting, choreographic diagrams and postmodern dance.
