Glacial Decoy (1979) was the start of Brown’s lifelong exploration of the relationship between dance and visual arts. This quiet piece sees five dancers perform before Rauschenberg’s astonishingly beautiful slide projections. A later collaboration with Rauschenberg, Astral Convertible (1989) features a cleverly designed industrial set containing built-in motion sensors which respond to the movements of nine dancers.
