Thursday, February 4, 2010 7:00 p.m. Americas Society 680 Park Avenue New York, NY  Music of the Americas is proud to start a new collaboration with the renowned José Limón Dance Company. In these salons, members of the company will discuss aspects of its work and that of its founder. On February 4, the company's Artistic Director Carla Maxwell will discuss the influence of Jose Limón in the world of contemporary dance and the company’s preservation and dissemination of his works and aesthetic ideas. The evening will include a performance of excerpts from Rooms and There is a Time. About José Limón: José Limón, born in Culiacán, Mexico, in 1908, emigrated to the United States at the age of seven. When he was 20, he moved from Los Angeles to study painting in New York, where he discovered modern dance. After serving in the U.S. Army, Limón formed his own company and, over the next 25 years, established it as one of the major forces in twentieth century dance.
