About the Item

Desert Flower is a project created by Guilherme Licurgo in collaboration with the iconic Martha Graham Dance Company, using the dancers, Graham technique, and original costumes. Images were taken in different countries. "Guilherme Licurgo has reached into Martha Graham's essential beliefs and extended them into the future. I know Martha would be intrigued and delighted by these evocative photos and feel the deep connection to her own creative discoveries. The Martha Graham Dance Company wishes to thank Guilherme Licurgo for his sensitivity, his generosity, and his artistry in transforming our historic legacy with these stunning photographs." – Janet Eilber.
