Yvonne Rainer

Bio:

Yvonne Rainer is a dancer, choreographer, and filmmaker based in New York, United States. A leading figure in the Judson Dance Theater movement, she is recognized for deconstructing conventions of modern dance through choreographic work that emphasises repetition, indeterminacy, spoken language, and pedestrian movement. Her experimental films often take on non-linear narratives that combine fiction, autobiography, and critical theory to explore feminist themes.
