In the annals of dance history, 2019 may go down as the year Bard Choreographer in Residence Pam Tanowitz got the attention she deserved. In the past six months she has brought her imaginative formalism to the Martha Graham Dance Company, New York City Ballet, the Paul Taylor Dance Company, and the Kennedy Center’s Ballet Across America festival. The recent recipient of an Alpert Award in the Arts, Tanowitz is not slowing down, with new works on deck for Vail Dance Festival this month and the Royal Ballet’s Merce Cunningham celebration in October.
