At the 2015 Hudson Valley Dance Festival, Martha Graham Dance Company, which celebrated its 90th anniversary, presented Rust, created by renowned Spanish choreographer Nacho Duato.
Rust illustrates the modern plagues of terrorism, torture and violence and the need to stir public awareness to their horrors. In the harrowing, demanding piece, an all-male quintet explored the viciousness and emotional heaviness of the theme set to the slashing music of composers Arvo Pärt and Pedro Alcalde.
The evening in Catskill, NY, featured captivating performances by Brian Brooks Moving Company, The Chase Brock Experience, Jessica Lang Dance and Martha Graham Dance Company as they explored a range of human conditions from anger to harmony, from violence and terror to pure love and joy.
Performed in a converted 19th century warehouse on the banks of the Hudson River, Hudson Valley Dance Festival raised $125,555, setting a new record for the event.
