}}Alvin Ailey (January 5, 1931 – December 1, 1989) was an African-American choreographer and activist who founded the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and the Ailey School in New York City. He is credited with popularizing modern dance and revolutionizing African-American participation in 20th-century concert dance. His company gained the nickname "Cultural Ambassador to the World" because of its extensive international touring. Ailey's choreographic masterpiece Revelations is believed to be the best known and most often seen modern dance performance. In 1977, Ailey was awarded the Spingarn Medal from the NAACP.[1] He received the Kennedy Center Honors in 1988. In 2014, President Barack Obama selected Ailey to be a posthumous recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom.[2]

Early years

Ailey was born to his 17-year-old mother, Lula Elizabeth Ailey, in Rogers, Texas. His father, also named Alvin,[3] abandoned the family when Alvin was only six months old. Like many African Americans living in Texas during the Great Depression, Ailey and his mother moved often and had a hard time finding work.{{citation needed|date=November 2018}}

Ailey grew up during a time of racial segregation, violence, and lynchings against African Americans. Early experiences in the Southern Baptist Church and juke joints instilled in him a fierce sense of black pride that would later figure prominently in Ailey's signature works.[4][5]

In the fall of 1942, Ailey's mother, in common with many African Americans during this period, migrated to Los Angeles, California, where she heard of lucrative work supporting the war effort. Ailey, aged 11, joined his mother later by train, having stayed behind in Texas to finish out the school year. Ailey's first junior high school in California was located in a primarily white school district. As one of the few black students, Ailey felt out of place because of his fear of whites, so the Aileys moved to a predominantly black school district. He matriculated at George Washington Carver Junior High School, and later attended the Thomas Jefferson High School. He sang spirituals in the glee club, wrote poetry, and demonstrated a talent for languages. He regularly attended shows at Lincoln Theater and the Orpheum Theater. Ailey did not become serious about dance until in 1949 his school friend Carmen De Lavallade introduced him to the Hollywood studio of Lester Horton. Horton would prove to be Ailey's major influence, becoming a mentor and giving him both a technique and a foundation with which to grow artistically.[5]{{Page needed|date=September 2010}}

Horton's school taught a wide range of dance styles and techniques, including classical ballet, jazz, and Native American dance. Alvin quickly fell in love with dance. Horton's school was also the first multi-racial dance school in the United States.[5]{{Page needed|date=September 2010}} Ailey was, at first, ambivalent about becoming a professional dancer. He had studied Romance languages at various universities in California,[6] but was restless, academically, and took courses as well in the writings of James Baldwin, Langston Hughes, and Carson McCullers{{Citation needed|date=March 2013}}. He moved to San Francisco to continue his studies in 1951. There, he met Marguerite Johnson, who later changed her name to Maya Angelou. They occasionally performed a nightclub act called "Al and Rita". Ailey earned a living waiting tables and dancing at the New Orleans Champagne Supper Club. Eventually, he returned to study dance with Horton in southern California.[5]{{Page needed|date=September 2010}}

The Horton Dance Company

{{unreferenced section|date=November 2018}}

He was introduced to the company through Carmen, a lifelong friend. At the age of 22 Ailey began full-time study at Horton's school. He joined Horton's company in 1953, making his debut in Horton's Revue Le Bal Caribe. It was during this period that Ailey performed in several Hollywood films. Like all of Horton's students, Ailey studied other art forms, including painting, acting, music, set design, and costuming, as well as ballet and other forms of modern and ethnic dance.

When Horton died in November 1953 the tragedy left the company without an artistic director. The company had outstanding contracts that required and desired new works. When no one else stepped forward, Ailey assumed the role of artistic director. Despite his youth and lack of experience (Ailey was only 22 years old and had choreographed only one dance in a workshop) he began choreographing, directing scene and costume designs, and running rehearsal and he also directed one of the shows for the company.

New York

In 1954, he and his friend Carmen De Lavallade were invited to New York to dance in the Broadway show, House of Flowers by Truman Capote, starring Pearl Bailey and Diahann Carroll. He also appeared in Sing, Man, Sing (1956, starring Harry Belafonte) and in Jamaica (1957) with Lena Horne and Ricardo Montalbán. The New York modern dance scene in the fifties was not to Ailey's taste. He observed the classes of modern dance contemporaries such as Martha Graham, Doris Humphrey, and José Limón. He felt Graham's dancing "finicky and strange" and disliked the techniques of both Humphrey and Limón. Ailey expressed disappointment at not being able to find a technique similar to Horton's. Not finding a mentor, he began creating works of his own.[5][7]

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater

Ailey formed his own group, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater in 1958, inspired by the vision of his mentor, Lester Horton.[13] The group presented its inaugural concert on March 30, 1958. Notable early work included Blues Suite, a piece deriving from blues songs. Ailey's choreography was a dynamic and vibrant mix growing out of his previous training in ballet, modern dance, jazz, and African dance techniques. Ailey insisted upon a complete theatrical experience, including costumes, lighting, and make-up. A work of intense emotional appeal expressing the pain and anger of African Americans, Blues Suite was an instant success and defined Ailey's style.{{citation needed|date=November 2018}}

For his signature work, Revelations, Ailey drew upon his "blood memories" of Texas, the blues, spirituals, and gospel. These forces resulted in the creation of his most popular and critically acclaimed work. Ailey originally intended the dance to be the second part of a larger, evening-length survey of African-American music which he began with Blues Suite.{{citation needed|date=November 2018}}

Although Ailey created 79 works for his dancers, he maintained that his company was not merely a showcase for his own work. Today, the company continues Ailey's vision by performing important works from the past and commissioning new additions to the repertoire. In all, more than 200 works by over 70 choreographers have been performed by the company.{{citation needed|date=November 2018}}

Ailey was proud that his company was multi-racial. While he wanted to give opportunities to black dancers, who were frequently excluded from performances by racist attitudes at the time, he also wanted to rise above issues of blackness. His company always employed artists based solely on artistic talent and integrity regardless of their race—a stark difference from most other dance companies that were not integrated in the 1950s.[13]

Ailey continued to create work for his own company and also choreographed for other companies.

In 1962 the U.S. State Department sponsored the Alvin Ailey Dance Company's first overseas tour. Ailey was suspicious of his government benefactors' motives. He suspected they were propagandistic, seeking to advertise a false tolerance by showcasing a modern Negro dance group.{{citation needed|date=November 2018}}

In 1970, Ailey was honored by a commission to create The River for the American Ballet Theatre (ABT). He viewed The River, which he based on the music of composer Duke Ellington, as a chance to work with some of the finest ballet dancers in the world, particularly with the great dramatic ballerina Sallie Wilson. The ABT, however, insisted that the leading male role be danced by the only black man in the company, despite misgivings by Ailey and others about the dancer's talent.{{citation needed|date=November 2018}}

Cry (1971) was one of Ailey's greatest successes. He dedicated it to his mother and black women everywhere. It became a signature piece for Judith Jamison.[8]

The Alvin Ailey Dance Theater was constructed by Tishman Realty and Construction Corporation of New York, Manhattan's largest builder.{{citation needed|date=November 2018}}

The Ailey School

In 1969, a decade after founding Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater, Ailey founded the Alvin Ailey American Dance Center, which was later named the Ailey School in 1999. Beginning in Brooklyn with 125 students, co-directors Alvin Ailey and Pearl Lang aimed to provide access to arts and dance to under-resourced communities.[9] The school now trains more than 3,500 dancers each year. In 1970, the school relocated to Manhattan and in 1984, Denise Jefferson assumed directorship. Under her leadership, the school saw the beginning of its Bachelor of Fine Arts Program in partnership with Fordham University in 1998. Several years later, the school moved into The Joan Weill Center for Dance. Denise Jefferson passed away in 2010, so Tracy Inman and Melanie Person stepped up to take her place as co-directors. A couple years later in 2012, the longtime Artistic Director Sylvia Waters retired and associate director Troy Powell took over her role as Artistic Director. With the addition of the Elaine Wynn and Family Education Wing, the Ailey school is still growing and is now the largest place in New York City committed to training dancers.[10]

Technique

Ailey made use of any combination of dance techniques that best suited the theatrical moment.[7] Valuing eclecticism, he created more a dance style than a technique. He said that what he wanted from a dancer was a long, unbroken leg line and deftly articulated legs and feet ("a ballet bottom") combined with a dramatically expressive upper torso ("a modern top").[11] "What I like is the line and technical range that classical ballet gives to the body. But I still want to project to the audience the expressiveness that only modern dance offers, especially for the inner kinds of things."[7]

Ailey's dancers came to his company with training from a variety of other schools, from ballet to modern and jazz and later hip-hop. He was unique in that he did not train his dancers in a specific technique before they performed his choreography. He approached his dancers more in the manner of a jazz conductor, requiring them to infuse his choreography with a personal style that best suited their individual talents. This openness to input from dancers heralded a paradigm shift that brought concert dance into harmony with other forms of African-American expression, including big band jazz.[7]

In 1992 Alvin Ailey was inducted into the National Museum of Dance's Mr. & Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt Whitney Hall of Fame in Saratoga Springs, NY.{{citation needed|date=November 2018}}

Personal life

Ailey kept his life as a dancer a secret from his mother for the first two years.[5]

Ailey died on December 1, 1989 at the age of 58.[12] To spare his mother the social stigma of his death from HIV/AIDS at the time, he asked his doctor to announce that he had died of terminal blood dyscrasia.[13]

Sexuality in works

While Ailey maintained a largely closeted persona with regard to his sexuality, his sexuality did come through in his works. In ballets like Quintet (1968), Flowers (1971), and The Mooche (1974), Ailey used grandiose and lavish costume and set design that displayed campy excess which was, at the time, prevalent and appreciated by some gay audiences.[14] The imagery used in his dances displayed male and female homosexuality, evident in works he made for the American Ballet Theater (The River, 1970) and his own company (Streams, 1970).[14] These works incorporated parts that acknowledged a sensual, intimate bond between men and women in dance of same-sex partnering framed by opposite-sex encounters.[14] His works also routinely enlivened male homosexual spectatorship in its depictions of glamorous masculinity, as in the hypermasculine working men of Blue Suite, and the sensitive but sensually deprived religious archetypes of Revelations and Hermit Songs (1961), attuned to the Leontyne Price recording of Samuel Barber's song cycle.[14]
