Modern Bodies: Dance and American Modernism from Martha Graham to Alvin Ailey - Cultural Studies of the United States
Julia L. Foulkes
This text exposes the social dynamics that shaped American modernism and moved dance to the edges of society. Through their art, modern dancers challenged conventional roles and images of gender, sexuality, race, class, and regionalism with a confrontational view of American democracy.
