“I think Contact Improvisation is a brilliant proposition, and it gets more brilliant all the time. It’s remarkable that it stays remarkable as the context and the times change. Steve’s original construction, the way it was proposed — that the dancers and the physical forces collaborate to make the movement — is interesting and beautiful, somewhat unpredictable and surprising, odd, risky, revealing, touching, curious, challenging. That sounds like good art to me.” — Nancy Stark Smith
