Description:
Merce Cunningham (born April 16, 1919 in Centralia, Washington, United States) is an American dancer and choreographer. A long-term collaborator with composer John Cage, Cunningham is commonly recognized as one of the most innovative and influential figures in modern dance. Cunningham's dances emphasise strength and agility, and his choreography notoriously demands of his dancers difficult, nearly impossible physical feats of athleticism. Wikipedia
