Roxanne Steinberg

Roxanne Steinberg dances to transcend familiar vocabularies and bring about a heightened sense of perception and connectivity. A graduate of Bennington College, her work in choreography and improvisation brought her to Japan and to Body Weather Farm. She introduced Body Weather training in Los Angeles in 1988 at LACE Gallery. In 1990, she created La Boca Theater with Oguri at Sunshine Mission/Casa de Rosas women’s shelter. As artist-in-residence at Electric Lodge, Venice, since 1997, she teaches and presents artists. She was a 2020 Department of Cultural Affairs City, Los Angeles (COLA) Individual Artist Fellow. She is part of Lauren Bon’s art practice at Metabolic Studio. Delving into the phenomenon of dance as a vehicle to knowing, she seeks myriad existences for body and psyche, appreciating the ephemerality of dance within constructed environments of handmade and found objects showing in her 2023 exhibition “Don’t Hoard the Merchandise” at ARCANEspace.
