Rennie Harris founded Rennie Harris Puremovement
in 1991, with the belief that Hip-Hop represents the expression of a
new generation and while finding roots in inner city African and Latino
American communities, is not limited to the "street."
Like all art, Hip Hop expresses univeral themes
that extend beyond the boundaries of racial, religious, and economic
elitism.
Rennie Harris Puremovement has performed to
sold out audiences at venues in the U.S. and abroad. In addition to
performing, the company has led residencies involving a creative combination
of lecture-demonstrations, repertory workshops, spoken word workshops
and master classes for various community populations including, at-risk
youth, deaf youth, performing arts students and teacher/community artists.
