Whether supporting the work of local artists or introducing audiences to some of the world’s most visionary giants, OZ Arts has established itself as the city’s go-to destination for “innovative, contemporary art and performance experiences.” Highlights from OZ’s “International Season of Changemakers” included the return of Ukrainian musical/activist group DakhaBrakha, Botis Seva’s Olivier Award-winning work BLKDOG, renowned Congolese choreographer and storyteller Faustin Linyekula and South Korea’s acclaimed Bereishit Dance Company, along with New York luminaries such as The Wooster Group and Faye Driscoll. Changemakers, indeed.
