Absolutely fascinating read, thanks Tyler. As someone certified as having two left feet I find Dance as an art form captivating and intriguing. I come at it from a Graham and after perspective only because that's how I was initially exposed to it. The film of Le Clerq dancing 'Faun' is beautiful, I had no idea of her tragic story, you almost couldn't make it up.
No I didn't but I shall definitely track it down. I had the privilege of seeing the MC company perform at Tate Modern with the highlight of Merce coming out at the end to take the applause

Thanks for walking with us, Mark. Did you by chance read my journey with Merce Cunningham?

The Toumanova / Kelly dance is seduction at the highest level - great share!
