Sappho and Isadora: Once Again, This Time

May 21, 2021

Cynthia Word culminated her time as a Center for Hellenic Studies Visiting Artist with an online presentation investigating two artists who pioneered the expression of the solo female voice in poetry and dance. Through words, photography, music, and videography, we realize kinship between Sappho, 7th century BCE poet, and Isadora Duncan, 19th century CE dancer. What can we learn from the impact of time and fragmentation on their art? How does it affect us? How can we apply what we learn? And what new works can emerge from the pieces?
