Amy Reusch Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Perhaps this belongs in the modern dance forum but it's so strongly dance history oriented that I felt it belonged here rather than there. Has anyone seen Jody Sperling's Time Lapse Dance production of what look to be Louie Fuller reconstructions? Someone sent me a photo from a Symphony Space "Dance Sampler" brochure. Is it worth hunting down a performance? Here's the company website for the curious: Jody Sperling Time Lapse Dance Link to comment

sandik Posted May 22, 2005 Share Posted May 22, 2005 (full disclosure -- I know Jody through my dance history life) Her work is certainly worth the effort -- she has done significant work as a reconstructor and restager of older dances, but she's also done some very interesting work "in the style of," which is a fascinating and delicate place. She's a lovely performer and a very smart woman. I'd recommend her both as a dancer/stager and as a lecturer/teacher. Link to comment
ltraiger Posted May 23, 2005 Share Posted May 23, 2005 And if you're interested in viewing a hand-painted film and hand-retouched lithos of Fuller, there is a room devoted to Fuller in the National Gallery of Art's Toulouse Lautrec exhibit in Washington, DC. Link to comment
