Clothed, the choreography would have made no great impact. Unclothed, however, the intimacy was often astonishing.

"Robert Swinston, former director of choreography for the Merce Cunningham Dance Company, recalled the MCDC’s final performance during Merce’s life, which took place at the Ted Shawn Theater. Just moments before the show and hours before he died peacefully in his New York apartment, Merce had told the company, via Skype, 'Remember why you dance.'"

Reading about 20-somethings, drinking from a 20-something mug and prepping for rehearsal for a 20-something's dance. Excellent. (Taken with instagram)

doing some dance reading tonight...
Finally tuning in to these musings about the value of snark in dance criticism. I have to say, as usual, I'm quite moved by the brilliant Deborah Jowitt (quoted in Wendy's well-written take on the harm 'excessive snark' does to our art's reputation): 'Long ago I decided that it was pointless to use heavy artillery on small targets.'
From Wendy Perron
From Robert Johnson
And yet Robert, another writer I admire, definitely has a point here - "Dance is the most wonderful thing, ever, but let’s be clear about this: dances that are boring, derivative, tasteless, badly rehearsed, pretentious and/or willfully opaque do nothing to strengthen the dance community. They do not enhance its reputation, or win converts for the art form." Your opinions?
Also, Cunningham moving to France? I get a kind of icky feeling about this...
