Documentation of eight events at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art revolving around Anna Halprin and the San Francisco Dancers' Workshop, including their first "
Citydance"
(1975-1976). Produced by First Generation (1974 -1980), a partnership between Dede Tisone Bartels, Betty Estersohn, and Joan Valdes, who were young teachers and artists in the San Francisco Bay Area of the 1960s and 70s. It was a vibrant and creative art community that was pushing the boundaries and the definition of art. The common denominator between the three was an interest in the possibilities of the new technology of video to document the work of people who created California and Bay Area history.
