In @nytimes, Anna Kisselgoff later wrote that the piece "suggests a pastoral romp intended to please the eye. The eight dancers wear Alex Katz's eye-catching multi-colored tights, and Jennifer Tipton's lighting enhances an overall Picasso-like mood."⁠ ⁠ #dance #dancer #moderndance #paultaylor #paultaylordancecompany #ptdc #ptamd⁠ ⁠ 📸 of Paul Taylor with the Company in "Junction": Jack Mitchell (1970)$

Writing in @nytimes, @alastair.macaulay called it "deeply moving… a work of philosophic as well as dramatic power… One of the great achievements of his long career and one of the most eloquently textured feats of his singular imagination."⁠ ⁠ #dance #dancer #moderndance #paultaylor #paultaylordancecompany #ptdc #ptamd⁠ ⁠ 📸: @paulbgoode$

In @newyorkermag, Arlene Croce wrote: "It confers a mythic dimension on ordinary aspects of our daily lives—it’s unfaked folk art. The dancers, crashing wave upon wave into those falls, have a happy insane spirit that recalls a unique moment in American life—the time we did the school play or we were ready to drown at a swimming meet."⁠ ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #dance #dancer #moderndance #paultaylor #paultaylordancecompany #ptdc #ptamd⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 📸: @paulbgoode$

It's also a great Scrabble word! 🌙⁣⁣ ⁣⁣⁣⁣ See this Season’s last performance of “Syzygy” at @lincolncenter on Saturday at 2:00 pm.⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁠⠀⁣⁣⁣⁣ #dance #dancer #moderndance #paultaylor #ptdc #paultaylordancecompany #ptamd⁠⠀⁣⁣⁣⁣ ⁠⠀⁣⁣⁣⁣ 📸: @paulbgoode$

Katz often gave Taylor obstacles to choreograph around: In "Sunset," he limited the use of stage-right entrances and exits by blocking the wings with a wall, in "Private Domain" he blocked the audience’s visibility with three drops at the front of the stage, and in "Diggity" he affixed dog cut-outs to the floor for the dancers to weave throughout.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Buy tickets for this special performance (and the reception afterward): www.boxoffice.dance⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ #dance #moderndance #modern #alexkatz #art #paultaylor #paultaylordancecompany #ptdc #ptamd⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ 📸 (Scudorama, Diggity, Sunset, Private Domain): @paulbgoode$
