SUMMARY:A Pluralistic View of the Judson Dance Theater Legacy: Yvonne 
 Rainer & Aileen Passloff with Wendy Perron
DESCRIPTION:Presented in conjunction withÂ Rethinking the Imprint of J
 udson Dance Theater Fifty Years Later: Movement Research in Residence.
 \nThe divergences between the work of Yvonne Rainer and Aileen Passlof
 f highlight the vastness of the imprint of Judson Dance Theater (1962â
 €“64;Â JDT) while dismantling the myth of a singular Judson aesthetic.
  Rainer, along with dance artists Steve Paxton, Trisha Brown, Lucinda 
 Childs, David Gordon, and others, broke with the conventions of modern
  dance by exploring task dances and the Dadaist idea of radical juxtap
 osition. Passloff, along with Jimmy Waring, Fred Herko, Arlene Rothlei
 n, and others, reveled in the full-out dancing and fantasy of modern d
 ance. In this talk, moderated by Wendy Perron, Rainer and Passloff con
 sider the legacy of Judson Dance Theater from the perspectives of thei
 r divergent practices.\nSome questions that Rainer and Passloff will a
 ddress: What were you saying â€śNoâ€ť to, and what were you saying â€ś
 Yesâ€ť to? In what ways did the â€™60s affect Judson Dance Theater? Ho
 w did others in theÂ JDTÂ collective influence your work? What artisti
 c values do you feelÂ JDTÂ has handed down to later generations?\nYvon
 ne Rainer, born in 1934, was a dancer/choreographer, then a filmmaker,
  then a choreographer/performer again, and an occasional writer. Her w
 ork has been seen internationally and rewarded with numerous museum ex
 hibitions, awards, and grants. Three dancesâ€”one from 1963 and two of
  more recent vintageâ€”will be presented at Danspace on November 1â€“3
 .\nAileen Passloffâ€™s earliest training was at the School of American
  Ballet, where she met James Waring who was to become a huge influence
  on her life. Later, she danced with Katherine Litz and studied flamen
 co in Madrid with Mercedes and Albano. Passloff had a dance company in
  New York for ten years and has taught dance at Bard College since 196
 9.\nWendy Perron, editor-in-chief ofÂ Dance Magazine, had a thirty-yea
 r career as a dancer, choreographer, teacher, and writer. She was a me
 mber of the Trisha Brown Dance Company in the 1970s, and led her own d
 ance company in the 1980s and â€™90s. She has taught at Bennington, Pr
 inceton, andÂ NYU, and written for theÂ New York Times,Â Ballet Review
 , and theÂ Village Voice.\n\nFor more information visit http://conecto
