TACITA DEAN: CRANEWAY EVENT
For three days in fall 2008, Tacita Dean filmed Merce Cunningham and his company rehearsing an Event in the craneway of an abandoned Ford Motor factory in Northern California. The stunning 16-millimeter, feature-length film that resulted, Craneway Event, captures the austere and powerful beauty of the dancers moving across multiple stages in the massive hangar-like space, and is the last appearance made by this legendary choreographer on film. It also marks the second collaboration between Cunningham and Dean, an internationally acclaimed visual artist whose work is exhibited at biennials and galleries worldwide. In 2008, Dean's installation Merce Cunningham performs Stillness (in three movements) to John Cage's composition 4'33"ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ with Trevor Carlson, New York City, 28 April 2007 (six performances; six films) was exhibited at Dia:Beacon.
