Martha Graham Animated Tribute on Google Today!

Posted on May 11, 2011 by

Check out the front page of Google today, which features a lovely animated tribute to the dancer / choreographer who changed dance forever, Ms. Martha Graham.  Today would have been her 117th birthday.

This animation was created by Ryan Woodward, the exceptional animator of dance that I last kvelled about for his "Thought of You" animated piece.  He just kills it this time, and with such an economy of lines and poses that would have pleased Ms. Graham, I'm sure.

More about the different dance references in the animation in PC Mag.

Hattip to Ann Mony!
