Anya Liftig
Anya Liftig's "Face Ballet" is performed in a tent onstage lit from within. Her face dance is projected from inside the tent, using a live feed from the artist's camera. We see her larger choreographic movements as a shadow dance on the walls of the tent.
Anya Liftig is a writer and performer. Her work has been featured at TATE Modern, MOMA, CPR, Highways Performance Space, Lapsody4 Finland, Fado Toronto, Performance Art Institute-San Francisco, Atlanta Contemporary Art Center, The Kitchen at the Independent Art Fair, Performer Stammtisch Berlin, OVADA, Joyce Soho and many other venues. In "The Anxiety of Influence" she dressed exactly like Marina Abramovic and sat across from her all day during "The Artist is Present" exhibition. Her work has been published and written about in The New York Times Magazine, BOMB, The Wall Street Journal, Vogue Italia, Next Magazine, Now and Then, Stay Thirsty, New York Magazine, Gothamist, Jezebel, Hyperallergic, Bad at Sports, The Other Journal, and many others. She is a graduate of Yale University and Georgia State University and has received grant and residency support from The MacDowell Colony, Yaddo, Atlantic Center for the Arts, The New Museum, Mertz Gilmore Foundation, Flux Projects, University of Antioquia and Casa Tres Patios-Medellin, Colombia.

What artists are saying
Goran Bogdanovski
NDA's commitment to providing performance opportunities and residencies for Eastern European artists is an important and rare gift.Through a grant from the Trust For Mutual Understanding began an amazing exchange between New Dance Alliance. I was invited in 2008 to perform my solo performance John at the Performance Mix Festival. This invitation was at the beginning of the creation phase and gave me motivation to proceed with rehearsals, which resulted as premiere in New York. John continue touring and developing through Moscow (Russia), Dusseldorf (Germany), Skopje (Macedonia), Sofia (Bulgaria), Munchen (Germany) and finished in 2011 in Ljubljana (Slovenia).
In 2010, I invited Karen Bernard to visit the Pleskavica Festival in Ljubljana, which was organized by NOMAD Dance Academy and Fi?o Balet. As a result of our exchange she invited several artists Victoria Illioska, Ivo Dimchev, Iskra Sukarova and 50 Collective to her festival the next year.
