Description

One of the great artistic forces of the twentieth century, performer, choreographer, and teacher Martha Graham influenced dance worldwide. Criterion presents a sampling of her stunning craft, all collaborations with television arts-programming pioneer Nathan Kroll. A Dancer's World (1957), narrated by Graham herself, is a glimpse into her class work and methodology. Appalachian Spring (1959) and Night Journey (1961) are two complete Graham ballets, the first a celebration of the American pioneer spirit, scored by Aaron Copland, the second a powerfully physical rendering of the Oedipus myth. These are signature Graham works and tributes to the art of the human body.

    As a little girl, I remember Saturday night was always Date Night for my parents. I would sit and watch my mom put on her makeup, which was neatly organized in a long drawer of her dresser. It seemed like a very grown up thing to do: paint your nails, style your hair and apply lipstick. Lately, my eye has been drawn to makeup vanities, and not until remembering this Saturday night ritual did I rea...
