Judson Dance Theater

Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on the groundbreaking contributions of the Judson Dance Theatre, this book delves into the origins of postmodern dance that emerged in the 1960s at the Judson Memorial Church. Featuring influential choreographers and dancers like Twyla Tharp and Trisha Brown, it highlights their innovative use of everyday movements and the impact of Merce Cunningham's experiments. The work not only reshaped dance but also influenced minimalism in music and art, and the integration of dance with spoken word in solo performances.
