Ann Carlson's (b. 1954) award-winning, performance-based works are renowned for expanding the boundaries of dance and choreography. Collaborative in content and process, Mary Ellen Strom's (b.1955) video works blur the line between activism and art history, media and representation. Through their collaborative work since the early 1990s, Carlson and Strom have married social, political, historical and formal concerns. These collaborations are notable for their community engagement, experimental form, technological experimentation, and activist sensibilities. Among their highly celebrated works are Geyser Land (2003), a multi-media installation and performance experience that took place on a Montana train ride; West (1997), at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; and projects at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston; Creative Time; Lower Manhattan Cultural Council; and Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, San Francisco.
