Product Description
Choreographing Discourses brings together essays originally published by Mark Franko between 1996 and the contemporary moment. Assembling these essays from international sometimes untranslated sources and curating their relationship to a rapidly changing field this Reader offers an important resource in the dynamic scholarly fields of Dance and Performance Studies. What makes this volume especially appropriate for undergraduate and graduate teaching is its critical focus on twentieth- and twenty-first-century dance artists and choreographers – among these Oskar Schlemmer Merce Cunningham Kazuo Ohno William Forsythe Bill T. Jones and Pina Bausch some of the most high-profile European American and Japanese artists of the past century. The volume’s constellation of topics delves into controversies that are essential turning points in the field (notably Still/Here and Paris is Burning) which illuminate the spine of the field while interlinking dance scholarship with performance theory film visual and public art. The volume contains the first critical assessments of Franko’s contribution to the field by André Lepecki and Gay Morris and an interview incorporating a biographical dimension to the development of Franko’s work and its relation to his dance and choreography. Ultimately this Reader encourages a wide scope of conversation and engagement opening up core questions in ethics embodiment and performativity. | Choreographing Discourses A Mark Franko Reader
