SIX DANCES NANCY KARP
Limited boxed edition

These six leporellos are visualizations of the dances, FIRST LIGHT, DOT BUNCH, RELAY RELAY, RUNNING DANCE, RIVER CANON, and REMINISCENCE. They represent the patterns made by the dancers in each work. I devised this simple scoring method in 1978 to record the patterns of my dances. Each work may have up to 100 drawings. The drawings chosen do not attempt to cover an entire dance, but rather, key moments. The drawings have been laid out consecutively as in each dance, but do not necessarily flow into one another. They represent single moments in time.
