16 x 16cm. Paperback, unpaginated [32pp]. A detailed illustrated overview of the dance company's work up to 1963, designed by Marc Ratliff and edited by David Vaughan, published by the newly-founded Foundation for Contemporary Performance Arts set up to support works by avant-garde artists and composers. The year of publication…also marked Cunningham's groundbreaking site-specific Walker Art Center New York performances. Foreword by John Cage, who was the musical director for the most of the company's 1963 season (with David Tudor on piano), and Robert Rauschenberg designing the costumes and lighting arrangements. John Wulp supplied some of the photography, including the cover. A series of dances conceived by Cunningham are showcased. From Cage's foreword: "It is assumed that the dance supports itself and does not need support from the music. The two arts take place in a common place and time, but each art expresses this Space-Time in its own way. The result is an activity of interpenetrations in time and space, not counterpoints, nor controlled relationships, but flexibilities as are known from the mobiles of Alexander Calder." A rare and early Merce Cunningham Studio item, with OCLC locating only one copy at New York Public Library. Slightly sunned covers with small areas of abrasion, otherwise very good condition.
