About the Exhibition
Merce Cunningham: Common Time is a major retrospective exhibition organized by the Walker Art Center that appears simultaneously at the Walker and the MCA. Merce Cunningham was a seminal figure in modern dance, revolutionizing performance through his choreography and world-renowned dance company and through partnerships with leading artists. The exhibition immerses viewers in Cunningham's creative activities with a selection of performance backdrops, documentary video and video installations, sets, costumes, artworks, photographs, and ephemera.
