Always already in performance, black skin over-stimulates the folly of the Mardis Gras, igniting a decontextualization of pleasure, marking up...

A Choreographer's Process
ISBN: 9783639276626 / Angielski / Miękka / 148 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the field of the choreographic arts, there appears to be no one set process of creation.
