Dance Visions NY – Isadora Duncan & Contemporary Works
June 25, 2017 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Event Navigation
Dance Visions NY, under the direction of Beth Jucovy, honors the legendary choreographer Isadora Duncan’s dances, aesthetics, and techniques, which were created in the early 20th century – the very same era in which the Guggenheim Estate was formed. The company of 16 dancers will perform a combination of Duncan’s works as well as original site-specific contemporary works.
“What mattered in Isadora’s Hellenic dances was not the Greek themes or the gauzy costumes, but the uninhibited vitality, the sense of glorious nakedness.”
– Lewis Mumford, Cultural Critic, 1905
