b. 1969, St. Cloud, Minnesota. Lives and works in Los Angeles.

Participating artist Fritz Haeg, whose art practice takes the form of gardens, choreographic works, and a series of “Sundown Salon” meeting activities, proposed a choreographic plan titled East Meets West Interchange Overpass Parade. Haeg considers the site of the parade route, which passes over the intersection of routes 65 and 70 (the intersection that begets Indiana’s nickname as the “Crossroads of America.”) He proposed to overturn the regular directional procession format in favor of an alternative choreography: two brigades of paraders will march towards each other and circle around each other on the site of the overpass. All participants will be audience to each other as they pass in this circle.
