Stephen Petronio Company dancers rehearse the restaging of Merce Cunningham’s 1968 RainForest, the iconic collaboration with Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns and David Tudor. Pictured are @nichscico @jaqipaige and Gino Grenek. #mercecunningham #stephenpetroniocompany #moderndance #1968 #nycdance #dancemovie #docs #documentaries #andywarhol #jasperjohns
Humbled and profoundly honored to write a review for “If the Dancer Dances,” a documentary capturing the intimate and electric world within re-staging Merce Cunningham’s piece, RainForest. Setting such an Andy Warhol-ean abstraction on the Stephen Petronio Dance Company is both madness and magic to witness, and this doc - premiering in New York and LA at the end of April and early May respectively - is one not to be missed. Stay tuned and keep fingers crossed that my article lives outside the recesses of my own mind and computer, and, please - dance buffs, art historians, and enthusiasts for all things that make the heart pitter pas de chat pat - see this film. As Petronio states, Cunningham’s movement is meant to “set the clock forward.” Through such transmission, we as a community ensure our legends live beyond the last bow. @yogafordancers @layogamagazine @mercetrust @stephenpetroniocompany #yogafordancers #layogamagazine #mercecunningham #stephenpetroniocompany #ifthedancerdances
Saturdays at the Bar. this was the screen talk after an enlightening #IfTheDancerDances. it talks about things I knew about dance like processes, memory and the ephemeral, but watxhing it for real is so much better. the reconstruction of a body and of body movements (and therefore of space and time) is just sublime. properly sublime.
