Unique thinker
Yesterday I went to Merce Fair morning section. I feel that Merce Cunningham's works has alsways been special and difficult to understand . His work was so much about dance, music, art,technology and life. His life partner,John Cge, had been collaborating from 1940's -1992. They were prefer match . All of John Cage's unbalance music rythem, Cunningham would create inconsistent feeeling used different time,space design, light, camera filming were building a very unique pheonmena. During the section, we get to choose our own path through the rooms and events. In the Atrium 5th Floor, there was a family workshop. The comapny dancer,Patricia Lent, taught "Field Dances" to ages 10 and up with Cunningham Repertory Understudy Group. Children were very happy to play around and learn from Patricia. There was another film called "Point in Space," we get to see the collaboration between Merce Cunningham, John Cage, and filmmaker Elliot Caplan. It was a exciting stage viewing from television. 12 Dancers were always keep busy but using very simple movement. Even though, John Cage's music was inharmonious but the space design background were quiet match to dancers and music. Every time watched Cunningham's works always make me think a lot. I think it is a unique event for creator ,choreographer, artist!
