Born in Manchester, England, in 1964, Sarah Michelson has lived and worked in New York since 1991, where she has become a fixture of the downtown dance community. Her works are known for their athleticism, rigor, beauty and attention to architectural space. Her choreography, she has written, """"risks rejection"""" and """"denies safety""""; deliberately difficult, it inspires both adoration and debate. This book—featuring original essays, an interview with Michelson and a cultural history of her oeuvre written by her peers—explores the concepts and content of the choreographer’s work, bringing it vividly to life. | Sarah Michelson by David Velasco, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
