Rooted in an enduring devotion to dance, choreographer Jodi Melnick presents an evening of luminous performance at the Madoo Conservancy Gardens. Together with an exceptional ensemble of dancers, she reimagines past and present works, layered fragments interrupted and transformed into this new assemblage. Weaving her singular postmodern sensibility through the landscape, the choreography is shaped as much by place as by the performers themselves for an experience that is both intimate and expansive.
Madoo comes alive in this soon-to-be-published book by authors Alejandro Saralegui and Kendell Cronstrom. Photographed throughout an entire year by Tria Giovan, the gardens, interiors and art of Robert Dash shine like never before.
Advance praise:
“This book is like a ship in a bottle, capturing with miraculous clarity and containment a garden in full sail—a pocket rocket bursting out of a potato field in the middle of the Hamptons.”
—Christopher Woodward, Director, The Garden Museum, London
“How lucky we are, at long last, to have this account of the making of Madoo, Robert Dash’s widely admired property on Long Island. The photos and illustrations, along with notes from Dash’s journals and essays by those who knew him, shed light on Madoo’s evolution and what has made it so magical for nearly sixty years.”
—Frances Palmer, author, Life with Flowers
