myendlesslove (2006), a short, raw dance about grief. Brooklyn-based Gutierrez incorporates song, text, movement and video into his performance pieces. The new version starts off with Mr. Gutierrez, in person, holding a discussion with himself on video: “What are you going to show us today?” “Whatever happens.” As the question is repeated, the response becomes more lascivious: “I really hope it’s going to look beautiful, that you’re going to try all the possible variations and positions.” Cela nous concerne tous (This concerns all of us) (2017) Created in the fall of 2017 for Ballet de Lorraine in Nancy, France. Premiering during the company's 50th anniversary season, this piece takes its inspiration (and title) from the May 1968 social and political movements in France. Age and Beauty (2014/15) A trilogy of queer pieces that address queer time, futurity, and mid-life anxieties about relevance, sustainability and artistic burnout. Variations on Themes from Lost and Found: Scenes from a Life and other works by John Bernd Co-directed with Ishmael Houston-Jones, received a 2017 Bessie for Outstanding Revival. This Bridge Called My Ass (2019) In This Bridge Called My Ass, six Latinx performers map an elusive choreography of obsessive and perverse action within an unstable terrain of bodies, materials and sound. A formal logic binds the group and propels them to create an ever-transforming world where they are at once autonomous and connected, complicating the idea of identity. Latin-American songs and the form of the telenovela are exploited to show how familiar structures contain absurdity that reveal and celebrate difference. The title is a play on This Bridge Called My Back edited by Cherríe Moraga and Gloria E. Anzaldúa, a seminal 1981 anthology of Third Wave feminist essays that explores identity and critiques white feminism. Gutierrez had been piqued by the book since age 19. Teaching Gutierrez has taught regularly at a variety of festivals and intensives such as Forum Dança, La Caldera, ImPulsTanz, Camping/CND, SFADI, Lion's Jaw, American Dance Festival, Bates Dance Festival, MELT at Movement Research, Earthdance, Danza Común, New Aesthetics, Performatica, and Ponderosa and he has been a visiting guest professor at several universities including DOCH, Konstfack, P.A.R.T.S., Bennington College, Hollins University’s MFA Dance Program, School of Art Institute of Chicago’s Low Res MFA Art Program, Yale University’s MFA Program in Sculpture, RISD, Brown University, Carnegie Mellon University, UCLA, Princeton University, CalArts, University of Illinois, The New School/Eugene Lang, New York
