As co-founding member of Judson Dance TheaterYvonne Rainer produced groundbreaking works that echoed ideas of time, space, and seriality that were being explored in the field of visual art at the time. Throughout the 1960s, Rainer and the other Judson choreographers — including Trisha Brown, Lucinda Childs, and Steve Paxton, among others — developed a new vocabulary for dance that built upon nonexpressive techniques and chance procedures, while also incorporating task-oriented movements that brought attention to the physicality of the body.
Yvonne Rainer demonstrates Dia’s ongoing commitment to presenting experimental performance and dance at Dia:Beacon through new commissions and retrospectives of historical works. Previous presentations include Robert Whitman’s Prune Flat and Light Touch (2003); Joan Jonas’s The Shape, the Scent, the Feel of Things (2005–6); Merce Cunningham Dance Company (2007–9); Trisha Brown Dance Company (2009–10); and most recently Robert Whitman’s Passport and MoonRain (both 2011).

If you leave a comment it may take a while for me to find it. I don't check this old research gathering blog very often these days. it is 2021 - about 10 years since I last added to this collection. But I hope that you find some of the material I gathered for my dissertation helpful.
