Publisher Description: Emanuel Dimas de Melo Pimenta started working with Merce Cunningham, as composer, in 1986, with John Cage and David Tudor. Over more than twenty years, Cunningham and Pimenta traveled around the world together with great personalities like Takehisa Kosugi or Christian Wolff, meeting enlightened spirits like Georges Duby or Issei Miyake, among many others. This book, which tells about the revolutions created by Merce Cunningham in dance, is a celebration to the hundred years of the great choreographer and friend, and it is also a homage to everyone who participated, participates or will participate in Cunningham's marvelous dream. The book has not only texts written since 1995 but also an interesting and historical photographic essay made by the author over those many years. |
