EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative black-and-white photograph, Martha Graham, an iconic figure of American modern dance, is seen arriving at London Airport with her dancer-choreographer husband, Erick Hawkins. The image captures a moment of anticipation and disappointment, as the couple prepared for a three-week season at the Piccadilly Theatre in 1950. Martha Graham (1896-1991) was a pioneering dancer and choreographer who revolutionized the world of modern dance with her innovative movements, expressive gestures, and powerful emotional intensity. Hawkins (1909-1994), a talented dancer and choreographer in his own right, was Graham's partner both on and off the stage. Their artistic collaboration began in 1930 and continued until Hawkins' death in 1994. The photograph was taken during a pivotal moment in their careers. The Piccadilly Theatre season was expected to showcase Graham's groundbreaking works and mark their debut in London. However, tragedy struck when Graham suffered a knee injury, forcing the cancellation of the entire season. Despite the setback, the image remains a poignant reminder of their enduring partnership and the indomitable spirit of Martha Graham. Dressed in elegant coats and hats, the couple exudes an air of determination and resilience, reflecting the challenges and triumphs of their artistic journey. This photograph offers a glimpse into the history of modern dance in the 1950s, a time when artists like Martha Graham and Erick Hawkins pushed the boundaries of dance and redefined its possibilities. The image is a testament to their unwavering commitment to their craft and their ability to captivate audiences with their unique vision and artistry.
