SWAN: a poetical inquiry in dance, text & memoirThe northern Nevada community and the dance & art world-at-large, came together on behalf of L. Martina Young, an artist without health insurance, wheel-chair bound, and in need of total bilateral hip replacements. Coming to Nevada as a National Endowment for the Arts Fellow, and former Director of Dance at UNR (1988-94), this year, 2013, Martina celebrates 25 years as a Nevada-based artist and her return to dance performance. “SWAN: a poetical inquiry in dance, text, & memoir”—with music collaborator David Strother, Los Angeles-based electric violinist—is her ‘thank-you’ and artistic gift back to the community.
