BILL T. JONES / ARNIE ZANE DANCE COMPANY

Body Against Body

Body Against Body is a an evening of dance that revives and reconsiders the duets and solos that launched Bill T. Jones and Arnie Zane, partners and collaborators for 17 years, onto the early 1980s downtown performance scene. Physically and conceptually rigorous, these dances challenge both performers and viewers with their notions of task-based movement and non-narrative structure. Still some of the most significant examples of the postmodern aesthetic, the works take on new life through the diverse dancers of Jones's company and provide a rare look at the origins of an acclaimed choreographer. The epic dance theater evenings that Jones now creates trace their roots to the integra­tion of differing styles, sensibilities, and racial/ethnic origins that defined Jones's and Zane's adventurous partnership.
