By Gillian Jakab Verified, Mark Bloch, Benedict Nguyen, Trajal Harrell| The Brooklyn Rail Verified by Gillian Jakab Dance MoMA’s exhibition Judson Dance Theater: The Work is Never Done marks a major expansion in the recognition of postmodern dance history. The museum has been steadily collecting and presenting work from the Judson period of the early 1960s, and with this exhibition, rallies and assembles the dances, films, and ephemera in one place.
By Gillian Jakab Verified| Los Angeles Review of Books Verified “Love and manipulation, they share houses very often. They are constant bedfellows.” Thus spake psychiatrist Dr. Josef Klemperer (Tilda Swinton, alias “Lutz Ebersdorf”) to warn his patient, the young dancer Patricia (Chloë Grace Moretz), in the opening scene of Luca Guadagnino’s Suspiria. This Nietzschean observation — that even the most moral of acts leads to immorality — beats at the heart of the 2018 remake of Dario Argento’s 1977 horror film.

The Brooklyn Rail
The Brooklyn Rail is an independent, non-profit publication established in October 2000. It originated from a 1998 initiative that began as a weekly broadsheet for New York City commuters. The publication serves as a multidisciplinary forum for arts, culture, and politics, focusing on critical discourse and creative expression. The Brooklyn Rail publishes ten times a year, featuring a variety of content including essays, interviews, poetry, fiction, and criticism related to visual arts, music, film, theater, and politics. It is co-founded by Joe Maggio, Christian Viveros-Fauné, Theodore Hamm, and Patrick Walsh, with Phong Bui playing a key role as publisher. The publication also curates community programs such as art exhibitions, panel discussions, and film screenings to engage with local and global cultural voices. In addition to its print journal, The Brooklyn Rail collaborates on books, including *Tell Me Something Good*, which compiles interviews and portraits by Phong Bui. The organization relies on private donors and art foundations to support its mission of democratizing art criticism and fostering interdisciplinary dialogue.
