"The immaculate beauty of Trisha Brown's dances is one of the artistic wonders of our time."

WASHINGTON POST

Dance Umbrella celebrates this iconic artist in an enticing evening of work spanning four decades. With her loose-limbed, swinging style of movement, Trisha Brown creates fluid, silken works which both delight and challenge audiences.

Brown’s brilliant and highly acclaimed Glacial Decoy (1979) is set against Robert Rauschenberg’s iconic projections of classic Americana. A work of visual impact and tension, You can see us (1995) is an intriguing duet developed from Brown’s acclaimed solo, If you couldn’t see me (1994). Opal Loop / Cloud Installation #72503 (1980) is a recently revived classic performed in London for the first time with its fog installation. Brown’s latest work, L’Amour au théâtre (2009), accompanied by sections of Rameau’s opera Hippolyte et Aricie, is set against a backdrop of Brown’s own artwork. This delightful piece embodies her signature movement alongside elegant couplings and constantly shifting aerial architecture.
