Vision, Faith & Desire II: Dancemakers Inspired by Martha Graham

Vision, Faith, & Desire speaks to an ongoing project between Wini Haun and Lizzie Leopold to situate their respective choreographic voices within the rich historical lineage of modern dance. In the more than 80 years since the premier of Graham’s ground-breaking solo-work Lamentation, it would be nearly impossible to find a dancemaker untouched by Graham’s innovations in modernist aesthetics.

Vision, Faith & Desire is both a retrospective and a launching pad, a rare opportunity to revisit danced history and simultaneously encounter its present. For both the audience and the artists, this event will work to highlight the ephemeral connectivity of a modern dance family tree.
