Product Description
From Library Journal
London's Anthony D'Offay Gallery was the location of a recent multimedia show involving the collaboration of three highly influential, yet controversial, contemporary American artists: composer John Cage, dancer-choreographer Merce Cunningham, and painter Jasper Johns. Issued in conjunction with the exhibition, this catalog contains reproductions of Cage's musical manuscripts and Johns's paintings along with photographs of Cunningham's lithe movements. It documents their influence upon one another, celebrating close to 50 years of friendship. Yet the addition of Susan Sontag's whimsical verses, essays by art critics, captivating portrait photographs, and detailed chronologies fail to illuminate the complex muddle of ideas. Because of their significance in the avant-garde world, special collections may want this. Otherwise, this is not a necessary purchase.

Good stuff, Dec 1 2003
By jim - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cage, Cunningham, Johns: Dancers on a Plane (Paperback)
A very good book. I used it for a research paper on the New York School and Abstract Expressionism. I focused on Cage, so I didn't read the whole book, but if it is as good as the section on Cage, I'd say it's a very good book.
