For the first time in 25 years, one of Trisha Brown's most famous pieces, Man Walking Down the Side of a Building (in the year 2006), is restaged at Tate Modern.

Dancer and choreographer Brown became one of the leaders in New York’s Judson Dance Theatre during the 1960s, a revolutionary period that changed modern dance forever. After founding the Trisha Brown Dance Company in 1970, she began a series of large-scale theatrical productions and has collaborated with numerous contemporary artists, among them Robert Rauschenberg, Laurie Anderson and John Cage.

Throughout the day, video documents of Brown's historic pieces from the 1970s, including Man Walking Down the Side of a Building (1970), Walking on the Wall (1971), Roof and Fire Piece (1973) and Floor of the Forest (1970), are shown in the Starr Auditorium.
