Gus Solomons, Jr. (born 27 April 1940) is an accomplished dancer, choreographer, dance critic, and actor. He is a leading figure in postmodern and experimental dance. ==Dancer==
Gus Solomons, Jr., born and raised in Cambridge, Massachusetts, began his serious dance training in modern dance and ballet while an undergraduate architecture student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) 〔Jack Salzman, "Solomons, Gus," in ''Encyclopedia of African-American Culture and History'', 5 vols. New York:Macmillan, 1996.〕 He was a member of a local dance company called Dance Makers, and it was there where he began his experimental solo choreography. A year after graduating from MIT with a Bachelor of Architecture degree, Solomons moved to New York City with a "burning itch to perform and make dances" 〔Sally Banes, ''Reinventing dance in the 1960s: Everything was possible'' (Madison: University of Wisconsin Press, 2003), 105.〕 In 1962, he worked alongside other dance experimentalists at a studio in New York City. According to Solomons, quoted in Banes, they wanted to "find new forms, ways of making dances that were different from those of our mentors" 〔Sally Banes, ''Reinventing dance in the 1960s: Everything was possible'', 107.〕 Although he was interested in deconstructing forms and structures, he was also passionate about technical dancing. He performed with the companies of Pearl Lang, Donald McKayle, Joyce Trisler, Paul Sanasardo, and Martha Graham, although his most significant association during this period was with the Merce Cunningham and Company from 1965 to 1968. 〔Richard A. Long, "Gus Solomons, Jr." in ''The Black Tradition in American Dance'' (New York, NY:Rizzoli International Publications, 1989), 141.〕
