Abstract
This paper examines Trisha Brown's dance in the early 1970s. In the field of dance, Judson Dance Theater was launched in New York in the early 1960s. As one of the members of it, Brown created experimental dance works which broke down the preconceived ideas of dance. The focus of her pieces in the early 1970s, such as Walking on the Wall and Floor of the Forest, is on the relation of body to space. In Walking on the Wall, the performers, suspended in special harnesses from a ceiling, moved at right angles along the vertical wall-face of a gallery; in Floor of the Forest, two people put on clothes which were densely threaded with ropes, while hanging by them in midair. In such pieces, the performers' soles touch the wall, or the ropes are used as ceiling. This changes the relation of body to floor, from vertical to horizontal. In the simple and yet radical transposition, the performers find themselves sensing different kinesthetic movements in each part of the body than usual. Regulating the caused kinesthesia enables them to create new body movements.
