" 'I'm obsessed with the movement of ideas and the choreography of language,' types Aynsley Vandenbroucke, her words projected on a screen. Those thoughts pervade "Untitled," a piece in which no one dances, but thoughts about dance and our relationship to art are gently, poetically, presented." Roslyn Sulcas, The New York Times, March 18, 2011 Read the full review of recent Danspace Project Performance here.
"Its staging is simple: a series of written dialogues between Vandenbroucke and her past, Vandenbroucke and her present, and Vandenbroucke and her artistic collaborator, Brian Rogers. These dialogues range from the mundane (the experience of making a dance), to the personal (experiences of personal failures, frustrations, childhood memories, artistic influences), to the philosophical (what it means to begin and/or end something, why things (dances) matter)."

"It seems silly, in a way, to think of dances as being handmade. But the word comes to mind when sinking into Aynsley Vandenbroucke's carefully constructed works. Spare and delicate, they leave ample room for the imagination." Claudia La Rocco, The New York Times
