Continuing our celebration of the year of Merce Cunningham, we present three historic films made with the late legendary choreographer. Join NWFF for three short film on Cunningham. In Merce by Merce by Paik, a two-part tribute to avant-garde choreographer Merce Cunningham and 20th-century master Marcel Duchamp, Paik and his collaborators question art, life and time through video. Paiks electronic manipulations cause time and space to be layered and transformed and Benoit Jacquots fine look at Cage and Cunningham Merce Cunningham & Company.
