Event Info
Join us for Brothers in Arms, a work-in-process performance by 2022/23 BRIClab Performing Arts residents James Clements and John Maria Gutierrez.
Brothers in Arms is an interview-based devised play combining movement, music, video, and text. It aims to interrogate toxic masculinity and facilitate emotion transformation amongst male-identifying and masc folks. Alongside the presentation, there is an applied theatre component, where participants use the play’s framework to facilitate personal exploration of the themes.
About the Artists
About BRIClab
BRIClab is a multi-disciplinary residency program created to advance opportunities for visual artists, performers, and media makers. BRIClab offers emerging and mid-career artists essential resources, mentorships, and opportunities to share their work. The residency aims to build a stronger and more diverse artistic community in Brooklyn by supporting long term growth and fostering relationships across disciplines.
The program’s four tracks are Contemporary Art, Film + TV, Performing Arts, and Video Art. Each track offers unique resources designed to meet the needs of varied artistic practices. Residents receive additional financial support, mentorship, skills-based learning opportunities, and documentation of their work.

BRIC House is Brooklyn’s cultural living room: a 40,000 square foot multi-disciplinary arts and media complex where emerging and established artists can create work that deepens their practice and engages the diverse communities of the borough.
