This poster appears to promote a performance of work choreographed by the American dancer Merce Cunningham at the Modern Dance Theater that emerged in the 1990s as part of the Ankara State Opera and Ballet in Turkey and was influenced by Cunningham’s avant-garde approach. The photomontage featuring crouching dancers amid swirling lines and a range of typefaces emphasizes the bold, contemporary style of the production.
