Acts of light: Martha Graham in the 21st century.
Author: Deane, John & Nan Deane Cano Published: 2006 A collection of colour photographs, by John Deane, of the 'new' Martha Graham company, featuring interviews with the new generation of Graham dancers, who reflect on their own lives, the meaning each dance has for them personally, and their approach to the Graham technique. 18 works from the Graham repertory are featured, ranging from the Greek cycle and biblically inspired pieces through abstract studies of tragedy and hope, considerations of loss incurred in war time, and literary speculations like Deaths and Entrances. |
