scopecontent
{"value"=>"<p>The photographs series consists of professional prints, slides and negatives of dancers, artists, Cunningham, and individual productions and events. The individuals files are largely headshots, though photographs of Merce Cunningham also consist of unlabeled rehearsal, workshop, and performance shots. The productions and events images are either action shots of the dance in progress or full stage shots of the props and art used in tandem with each piece. There are also candid snapshots from galas and other CDF events, and photographs of posters, magazine covers, and other material related to CDF. Promotional photographs include images of the full company used for advertising. Photographs of the archive as it was housed at CDF before its move to the library are here.</p> <p>Electronic records in this series are 80 images taken of a <span class=\"title\">Totem Ancestor</span> revival.</p> <p>Arranged alphabetically by file title. Electronic records are currently unavailable.</p>"}
