Description
1 videocassette (VHS, NTSC) (55 min.) : sd., col.; 1/2 in.
Summary
Unedited footage recorded for the documentary Limón: a life beyond words. The first 44 min. of this tape depict Clay Taliaferro, a former member of the José Limón Dance Company, as he teaches an intermediate-level class in Limón technique to students of SUNY Purchase. This tape is not intended to depict a complete class, and the dance movement is not always fully visible. The class, accompanied by a percussionist, is already in progress as the tape begins. This tape also depicts items from the collection of Charles D. Tomlinson, a costume designer and close friend of Limón, including an oil painting of Tomlinson by Limón, a design for Limón's Missa brevis, and Tomlinson's sketch of Limón's farm in New Jersey (ca. 3 min.). The tape ends with exterior views of Abraham Lincoln High School in Los Angeles, which Limón attended (ca. 8 min.).
