review extract

Tharp?s first major video work was called ?Making Television Dance? and in this piece she comes close to making the camera choreograph. And what does it choreograph? A dance that spans the imagery of savage chaos from primitive to punk, a dance that reduces anything human to puniness in comparison with the vivid, hungry screen...In the end we and the dancers too, seem frailer than ever, and the dance rightly spectacular. Laura Shapiro, SEATTLE?S NEWSMAGAZINE, 10/27/82
