Richard HamiltonA suite of eight photographs by: Darren Almond Robert Gober Richard Hamilton Christian Marclay Bruce Nauman Ernesto Neto Gabriel Orozco Terry Winters Carolina Nitsch and the Board of Directors of the Cunningham Dance Foundation are pleased to announce the completion of a new Photography Portfolio for the Merce Cunningham Dance Company, featuring works by eight world-renowned artists: Darren Almond, Robert Gober, Richard Hamilton, Christian Marclay, Bruce Nauman, Ernesto Neto, Gabriel Orozco and Terry Winters. All eight artists have previously designed décor for the Merce Cunningham Dance Company. The portfolio commemorates the longtime commitment of legendary choreographer and dancer Merce Cunningham and his work with visual artists of his time. Each photograph is signed and numbered in an Edition of 40. The portfolio comes in a custom made cloth covered box and is produced by Carolina Nitsch for the benefit of the Merce Cunningham Dance Company. To view all eight photographs and further details please go to Photography Portfolio for Merce Cunningham at: www.artnet.com/Galleries/Inventory.asp?gid=796&cid=102048&rta For more information on the Merce Cunningham Dance Foundation go to www.merce.org. The portfolio opens with a large diptych by British artist Darren Almond, showing a broken railway bridge in Northern Siberia. It is a stunning example of Almond's investigation of the industrial past, time, memory and geography. Other stimulants of memory and emotion - while capturing moments of displacement and disappearance - are Robert Gober's ambiguous Untitled image from his Venice Biennial installation, Gabriel Orozco's mysterious Dotball, or Ernesto Neto's sequence of footprints vanishing in the surf. Meanwhile, Richard Hamilton's surrealist Readymade Shadows (see above), Terry Winters' Marseille Templates and Bruce Nauman's Studio Floor Detail allude to both art history and personal history. Christian Marclay's Luzerner Theater, an image of a 'silent' blue dance company crate on stage with the word SOUND stamped on the outside, not only pays hommage to Merce Cunningham but also converges our primary senses of sight and sound.
