Beginning with a survey of the incredible art on the walls depicting Isadora Duncan and Duncan dancers of various eras and backgrounds, we will relish the history of Duncan dance. After exploring the Duncan aesthetic through photographs and various images, we will move on to demonstrations of Duncan techniqe and excerpts of dances that depict the trajectory of Isadora's choreographic career: early, youthful dances which embody adolescense and nature, followed by dances which explore Isadora's burgeouning womahood with themes of love, sensuality, and inter-relationship. And of course, we can't leave an audience without sharing Isadora's love of Greek art and form without excerpting Duncan's dances which were inspired by Greek art and sculptures!
