MERCE CUNNINGHAM (1919-2009) was a leader of the American avant-garde throughout his seventy year career and is considered one of the most important choreographers of his time. Through much of his life, he was also one of the greatest American dancers. With an artistic career distinguished by constant innovation, Cunningham expanded the frontiers not only of dance, but also of contemporary visual and performing arts.

Murderer. She is either a choreographer nor a dancer. Her questions are ugly. She has no love
Merce in the purse is the name of the number
I love the Cunningham technique very much. It is very close to the Danamos principle (dance.art.master.system - seven basic movement of the human body-founded by Martin Puttke), which focuses exclusively on the basic elements of the human movement, without any content oder aesthetic interpretation. The impression of freedom and bond only arises from the organic flow auf the whole movement complexity.
“swinny!”
His choreographies are the best. So elegant! Where can we watch a repository of all his choreographies please??

Who are the dancers in this video? I recognize Robert Swinston. Holly Farmer. Please credit them all.
This man was a genius. I've been studying his work for a few months in connection with Rei Kawakubo and I can't believe he isn't more well-known in the general art world. I'm exposed to art all day, every day, and I've thought more about Merce's work in 2023 than anyone else. Thank you to the whole team at the Trust for the work you do :)

VASCO DA GAMA 💢>>>>>>>>
Lovely class. I’m teaching our modern class up here in Provincetown and I’m going to borrow elements of the triplet across the floor combination-minus the leap: we’re getting older ;-) We’re following in the footsteps of the late June Finch, our beloved director, and much of the music we use was recorded by Pat Richter, the incredible accompanist for this class.
Makes so much sense to me. I love it.

When did this interview take place?
June 17, 2019
@@MGinSFNo IT did not. Merce died in 2009. This interview probably took place, in the year or two before he died.
Probably sometime, within the last 2 years before he died. He passed away in 2009.
June 17, 2009. The month before Cunningham's death. Date is given at open of video.
Tolle und effiziente Übungen
