Frieze Projects: Madeline Hollander, ‘Day Flight’

20 - 23 February, 2025
Fair Opening Times

For those seeking new vantages, the artist and choreographer, Madeline Hollander invites visitors to move through the skies of Los Angeles. In collaboration with Santa Monica Flyers, a renowned local flight school located at Santa Monica Airport, she offers a limited number of choreographed flights each day for individual fairgoers. Inspired by her childhood flight lessons, which influenced her approach to dance, and her understanding of the body’s symbiotic relationship to machines, Hollander has worked closely with a select group of flight instructors to share this embodied experience. Day Flight features a fleet of Velis Electro planes, the first ever type-certified, electric-powered aircrafts, as well as Sportcruisers, and Cessnas. The piece will be accompanied by an immersive on-ground audio-visual installation that will allow visitors to listen and watch the live feeds of the flights overhead. Blending the personal with the celestial, Day Flight invites a physical exploration of moving through three-dimensional space and an intimate perspective on the city’s airspace.
