DESCRIPTION:The 2011 preview of Mosaic was described by Stephen Zunes as the "most 
 powerful on target creative effort I have ever witnessed on the issue" in 
 the nearly 40 years he has spent "working actively on Israel/Palestine". In 
 2013, Karl Schaffer, Maria Basile, Saki and other well regarded area 
 dancers will join forces with Fattah Abbou of the Moroccan fusion musical 
 group AZA and the women's a cappela choir Zambra to cast an artistic light 
 on the struggles, culture and politics of the Middle East, with a sharp 
 focus on the conflicts between Palestine and Israel.\n\nKarl has received 
 numerous grants from the NEA and other institutions for his dance and 
 choreography. Soloist Maria Basile was a nominee for the Isadora Duncan 
 Award for best dance performance in the Bay Area; she performs with Limón 
 West and sjDANCEco. Saki, Simon Harrison and Jane Real perform with Tandy 
 Beal as well as Karl and other area dance companies.\n\nAnn Simonton says 
 "Karl is brilliant at combining exciting dance movement with information". 
 Mosaic will include the premiere of Karl's latest solo choreography, 
 performed by himself. As yet untitled, the piece combines the personal and 
 the political with fast paced challenging choreography, all based on Karl's 
 awakening to the Israeli/Palestinian conflict while he was growing up 
 Jewish in the segregated Birmingham Alabama of the 1960's.\n\nThe 2011 
 Mosaic shows sold out- buying tickets in advance at 
 http://www.motionpacific.com/event/karl-schaffer-mosaic/ is
