Paul Taylor

Few artists of our time have had the profound impact on their art form that Paul Taylor has had on dance. People in cities and towns throughout the world have seen and enjoyed live modern dance performances due largely to the far-reaching tours he pioneered as a virtuoso dancer in the 1950s, and that his two companies have continued to this day.

In this SundayArts profile, see the Paul Taylor Dance Company prepare for their City Center Season, which includes two New York premieres.
