Redefining the kinds of movement that could count as dance, the Judson participants -  Trisha Brown, Lucinda Childs, Philip Corner, Bill Dixon, Judith Dunn, David Gordon, Alex  Hay, Deborah Hay, Fred Herko, Robert Morris, Steve Paxton, Rudy Perez, Yvonne Rainer,  Robert Rauschenberg, Carolee Schneemann and Elaine Summers, among others -  would go on to profoundly shape all fields of art in the second half of the 20th century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eJudson Dance Theater: The Work Is Never Done  highlights the ongoing significance  of the history of Judson Dance Theater. Published in conjunction with an exhibition at  The Museum of Modern Art, it charts the development of Judson, beginning with the  workshops and classes led by Anna Halprin, Robert Ellis Dunn and James Waring, and  exploring the influence of other figures working downtown such as Simone Forti and  Andy Warhol, as well as venues for collective action like Judson Gallery and the Living  Theatre. Lushly illustrated with film stills, photographic documentation, reproductions  of sculptural objects, scores, music, poetry, architectural drawings and archival material,  the publication celebrates the group's multidisciplinary and collaborative ethos as well  as the range of its participants.","brand":"The Museum of Modern Art","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42664459108388,"sku":"9781633450639","price":61.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/9734\/0196\/files\/9781633450639.jpg?v=1777357289","url":"https:\/\/thamesandhudson.com.au\/products\/judson-dance-theater","provider":"Thames \u0026 Hudson Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
