Being Watched: Yvonne Rainer and the 1960s
ISBN: 9780262516075 / Angielski / Miękka / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) In her dance and performances of the 1960s, Yvonne Rainer famously transformed the performing body -- stripped it of special techniques and star status, traded its costumes and leotards for T-shirts and sneakers, asked it to haul mattresses or recite texts rather than leap or spin. Without discounting these innovations, Carrie Lambert-Beatty argues in Being Watched that the crucial site of Rainer's interventions in the 1960s was less the body of the performer than the eye of the viewer -- or rather, the body as offered to the eye. Rainer's art, Lambert-Beatty writes, is structured...

The Mastery of Movement
ISBN: 9781852731458 / Angielski / Miękka / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych (dostawa przed świętami) Laban's The Mastery of Movement on the Stage, first published in 1950, quickly came to be accepted as the standard work on his conception of human movement. When he died, Laban was in the process of preparing a new edition of the book, and so for some time after his death it was out of print. That a second edition appeared was solely due to the efforts of Lisa Ullmann, who, better than any other person, was aware of the changes that Laban had intended to make. The rather broader treatment of the subject made advisable the change of title, for it was recognised that the book would appeal to...
