Revealing Merce Cunningham’s creative processes as inspiration for today’s dancers and choreographers
In this book, former members of the Merce Cunningham Dance Company detail the technique classes, rehearsal procedures, and compositional approaches that defined Cunningham’s New York studio for more than sixty years. Through firsthand accounts supported by interviews and secondary sources, the authors reveal Cunningham’s creative process—how simple movement phrases introduced in class evolved into the intricate and striking dances that became his signature.
The Artistry of Merce Cunningham also offers creative prompts inspired by themes and motifs from Cunningham’s repertory, designed to spark ideas for choreographers and performance artists. It highlights how steady daily practice, curiosity, and experimentation can transform raw movement into complex works of art. By documenting Cunningham’s methods, Daniel Roberts and Karen Eliot provide inspiration for today’s dancers and choreographers as they navigate the materials, technologies, and artistic challenges of the twenty-first century.
