Movies, Moves and Music
ISBN: 9781845539580 / Angielski / Miękka / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Over the last 40 years, while the musical film has faded from its historical high-point to a more isolated and quirky phenomenon, the dance film has displayed refulgent growth and surprising resilience. It has spawned profitable global enterprises (Billy Elliot), has fashioned youthful angst as sociological voice (Saturday Night Fever, Footloose, and Dirty Dancing) and acted as a marker of post-modern ironic camp (Strictly Ballroom). This modern genre has influenced cinema as a whole in the ways bodies are made dimensional, in the way rhythm and energy are communicated, and in the filmic...

ISBN: 9781476662848 / Angielski / Miękka / 196 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Music was everywhere in pre-Revolutionary Williamsburg, Virginia.

ISBN: 9781137569653 / Angielski / Twarda / 235 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book focuses on Romeo Castellucci s theatrical project, exploring the ethical and aesthetic framework determined by his reflection on the nature of the image. But why does a director whose fundamental artistic tool is the image deny this key conceptual notion? Rooted in his conscious distancing from iconoclasm in the 1980s, Castellucci frequently replaces this notion with the words symbol, form and idea . As the first publication on the international market which presents Castellucci s work from both historical and theoretical perspectives, this book systematically...

DanceKinesis: The Missing Dimension in Ballroom & Latin Dance
ISBN: 9781478766353 / Angielski / Miękka / 404 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. I knew that DanceKinesis was the missing dimension in Ballroom and Latin dance training and performing, but I needed to put it into a format that would be most helpful to dancers. I sought the opinions of many social and professional dancers world-wide, and, now, this world-class body, movement, and dance training system is the tried and proven result of their responses. DanceKinesis, dancing by a more natural movement and rhythm, is the newest and fastest growing concept in dance training, and is already being used, enjoyed, revered, and copied by dancers of every level. DanceKinesis does...

Street theatre invades a public space, shakes it up and disappears, but the memory of the disruption haunts the site for audiences who experience it.
