modern dance

A dancer stands in a wide lunge with arms reaching wide and palms facing upward as if she is scooping the air above her. She wears a geometric red and grey leotard with black pants and a line of white face paint framing her chin. She is doused in a deep red light.

Less is More – An Evening with Limón Dance Company

Ziying Cui

The enduring artistry of mid-20th-century modern dance.

In a blank expanse, a boat, a small wooden toy piano, and several clocks of various sizes pointing to different times are illuminated.

Two different performance photos split the image. On the right side, a person stands with their back to the camera facing a Taiko drum that they are playing on a stage next to a person dancing. They wear matching turquoise jumpsuits. There are more drums in the background. The image on the left shows a dancer with orange legwarmers standing in a second position lunge, holding cymbals with arms outstretched overhead. Another dancer in a blue leotard crouches in front of them.
