Robert Wilson pays homage to Japanese dancer and choreographer, Suzushi Hanayagi (1928- ). He mixes archival footage of her performances in the late 1980s and the 1990s, contemporary recitals by six dancers reprising her work, and his narration of losing contact with her and finding her, with Alzheimer’s disease, in an Osaka care center. Photographs of her hands and head provide a backdrop to the contemporary staging. Her words, writ large across the screen, also give texture to Wilson’s retrospective appreciation. |
