- **Event Description**: Part of Robert Rauschenberg's Centennial celebrations, this panel explores his creative relationships with Trisha Brown and Merce CunninghamAbout this EventAs part of Robert Rauschenberg's centennial celebrations, join us for a conversation exploring the artist’s creative relationships with Trisha Brown and Merce Cunningham and the lasting impact of their collaborations on both dance and visual art. Presented just ahead of Trisha Brown Dance Company’s performances at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, this event also marks the upcoming public opening of the Trisha Brown Dance Company archive at The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts. Rauschenberg’s visionary stage and costume designs played a pivotal role in shaping postmodern performance. His collaborations with both Cunningham and Brown helped dissolve boundaries between disciplines, creating some of the most iconic moments in 20th-century dance.  This conversation moderated by Merce Cunningham Trust Scholar-in-Residence Nancy Dalva, brings together leaders who now steward and shape those legacies: Carolyn Lucas, Associate Artistic Director, Trisha Brown Dance Company Andrea Weber, Director of Licensing and Operations Manager, Merce Cunningham Trust Francine Snyder, Director of Archives, Robert Rauschenberg FoundationTogether, they will reflect on the artists’ creative intersections, Rauschenberg’s impact on the stage, and the vital role of archives in preserving and reimagining dance history.Photo Credit: Set and Reset.
