Jan 2, 2023Are We Not Drawn Onward to New Era
Jan 7, 2023It happened one night, thirty years ago, EYE ON DANCE began broadcasting smart and spicy conversations about all forms of dance to thousands of households week in and week out. In the process, EYE ON DANCE created a bold, living diary of one of the least documented and most invigorating American art forms.
Today the award-winning archive boasts a wealth of irreplaceable content including thousands of original videotaped conversations and performances, reams of hand written research, photographs, publications and associated items. Compounding the solidly researched archive’s educational appeal, a substantial portion (40%) of the EYE ON DANCE archive, documents artists of color, artists with AIDS and under-recognized players not chronicled elsewhere. This breathtaking account of our dance heritage will slip away if we do not raise the funds required for the archive’s urgent-care and restoration.
Our plan is to complete the processing of all the archival elements and open access to educators, students and the public.
Long regarded as “one of the liveliest and most intelligent programs on the arts” (The New York Times), we invite you to please make a tax-deductible donation of any size to continue the important work of the
EYE ON DANCE Archive Legacy Project
Warm regards,
Celia Ipiotis
