Ralph Lemon (born 1952) is one of the most significant figures to emerge from New Yorks downtown dance and performance world in the past 40 years. A polymath and shape-shifter, Lemon combines dance and theater with drawing, film, writing and ethnography in works presented on the stage, in publications and in museums. He builds his politically resonant and deeply personal projects in collaboration with dance makers and artists from New York, West Africa, South and East Asia, and the American South. Lemon,who was born in Cincinnati and raised in Minneapolis, describes his explorations as a "search for the forms of formlessness." Absorbing and transmuting fractured mythologies, social history and dance techniques from multiple geographies and decades, Lemons genre-transcending works perform an alchemy of past and present, reality and fantasy. This book, the first monograph on the artist, features a wide range of texts by scholars and performers, an original photo essay by Lemon and an extensive chronology.

While there are several intelligent readers available on dance, their emphasis is either more journalistic (as in Robert Gottlieb's Reading Dance [2008]) or academic and European (as in André Lepecki's Dance [2012]). This new series of books takes into account the wealth of superb critical writing about dance of the past fifty years and evaluates the developments of new dance worlds (New York's 'downtown' scene, the French 'conceptualists') in the wake of modern and postmodern dance.
