• 摘要: This work presents a complete history of modern dance in the 1950's and 1960's, focusing on such well-known figures as Paul Taylor, Merce Cunningham, Twyla Tharp, Alwin Nikolais, and Yvonne Rainer, who continue to create dances today. In ahighly readable, lively style, the author describes the renaissance of modern dance, showing how trends in music, drama, and the arts inspired and were in turn inspired by the dance revival. Illustrated with 25 new photographs and with a new introduction by the author that places the work in its historical context, this book makes for fascinating reading for anyone interested in the development of modern dance. -- From publisher's description.
