Martha Graham - Portrait of the Lady as an Artist (Dance Choreog

Pdf / English / 1966 NY / 17 MB / 200 pages

Martha Graham is one of the most renowned, most influential, and most honored artists of this century — in 1965 she received the Aspen Award, an international prize equivalent in the arts to the Nobel Prize, and in 1966 she received an honorary degree from Harvard University, one of the few women to be so honored — yet this is the first book to be written about her since 1937, the first book of photographs of her dance theater to appear since 1941, and the first time that anyone has given a full account of her as a woman and as an artist.
