How and why did the philosophy and subsequent canon of Martha Graham flood out into an artistic diaspora that is still a wellspring of inspiration for contemporary artists? All of these questions, and many more, are considered in this fascinating book, authored by one of the Martha Graham Company's ex-principal dancers, which illuminates the ongoing significance of the Martha Graham Dance Company almost 100 years after it was founded. Through doing so, we are offered a study of the history of the Martha Graham Dance Company - the longest-standing modern dance company in America, its international diaspora and the current generation of dancers taking up the mantel. Drawing on extensive interviews conducted for the book, the company's story is told through the experiences, inspirations, motivations and words of performers from Graham's iconic artistic lineage." -- Amazon. 600 10 $a Graham, Martha. 610 20 $a Martha Graham Dance Company $x History. 600 17 $a Graham, Martha. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00036419 610 27 $a Martha Graham Dance Company. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00516575 600 17 $a Graham, Martha. $2 nli 610 27 $a Martha Graham Dance Company $x History. $2 nli 650 0 $a Dancers $z United States $v Interviews. 650 0 $a Modern dance $z United States $x History. 650 6 $a Danseurs $z Etats-Unis $v Entretiens. 650 7 $a Dancers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00887581 650 7 $a Influence (Literary, artistic, etc.) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00972484 650 7 $a Modern dance. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01024421 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 650 7 $a Dancers $z United States $v Interviews. $2 nli 650 7 $a Modern dance $z United States $x History. $2 nli 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Interviews. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423832 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117033208.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=D72DCA1AEE0211ECABFB385646ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
