A Lifetime of Creativity
Merce Cunningham and Defying Expectations
How does an artist's creative process change over a lifetime? And how does one's physical aging process impact the creative process? The panel includes Trevor Carlson, MCDC Executive Director; David Vaughn, MCDC Archivist; Christine Bratton, MCDC Physical Therapist; UM Professor Nicholas Delbanco who tackles the enigma of “Lastingness” over a creative life in his new book of the same title; and medical representatives from the University of Michigan Health System, who will address the physical changes inherent in the aging process.
