Lucinda Childs

Episode 2 of 6

Lucinda Childs at 85, a defining figure in postmodern dance, and how she shaped a practice built on pattern, restraint and precision that a new generation now inherits.

Lucinda Childs performs historic and new works with her company at the Fisher Centre at Bard. Over six decades, she has reshaped contemporary dance through precision, repetition and formal clarity. Emerging from 1960s Judson Dance Theatre, collaborating with Philip Glass and Sol LeWitt, she has carved a path as a defining figure in contemporary dance and an enduring practice of total minimalism.
