Dancing, Fighting, and Staging Capoeira

Dancing, Fighting, and Staging Capoeira By:Ana Paula Höfling Published on 2012 by This dissertation analyzes capoeira's choreographies of Afro-Brazilian modernity and tradition throughout the twentieth century: from the |national gymnastics| proposals of the 1920s to the Capoeira Angola/Capoeira Regional split in the 1930s and 40s; from capoeira's participation in Bahia's tourism industry in the 1950s to the adaptations of capoeira for the international stage in the 1960s and 1970s. By using movement analysis to revisit iterations of capoeira previously dismissed as cooptation, de-Africanization, and |loss of character,| I identify previously overlooked processes through which capoeira's Afro-diasporic |traditions| were tactically re-articulated through the hegemonic discourses of modernity. Conversely, by considering Capoeira Angola as more than a static |survival| of a capoeira practiced in an imagined past across the Atlantic, I acknowledge both the modernity and the...

Stravinsky and Balanchine By:Charles M. Joseph Published on 2008-10-01 by Yale University Press divdivIgor Stravinsky and George Balanchine, among the most influential artists of the twentieth century, together created the music and movement for many ballet masterpieces. This engrossing book is the first full-length study of one of the greatest artistic collaborations in history. Drawing on extensive new research, Charles M. Joseph discusses the Stravinsky-Balanchine ballets against a rich contextual backdrop. He explores the background and psychology of the two men, the dynamics of their interactions, their personal and professional similarities and differences, and the political and historical circumstances that conditioned their work. He describes the dancers, designers, and sponsors with whom they worked. He explains the two men’s approach to the creative process and the genesis of each of the collaborative ballets, demolishing much received wisdom on the subject. And he analyzes s...

Dancing Into Darkness

Dancing Into Darkness By:Sondra Horton Fraleigh Published on 1999-07-15 by University of Pittsburgh Pre Dancing Into Darkness is Sondra Horton Fraleigh's chronological diary of her deepening understanding of and appreciation for this art form, as she moves from a position of aesthetic response as an audience member to that of assimilation as a student. As a student of Zen and butoh, Fraleigh witnesses her own artistic and personal transformation through essays, poems, interviews, and reflections spanning twelve years of study, much of it in Japan. Numerous performance photographs and original calligraphy by Fraleigh's Zen teacher Shodo Akane illuminate her words. The pieces of Dancing Into Darkness cross boundaries, just as butoh anticipates a growing global amalgamation. |Butoh is not an aesthetic movement grafted onto Western dance, | Fraleigh concludes, |and Western dance may be more Eastern than we have been able to see. | This Book was ranked at 17 by Google Books for ke...

Dancing Through Fields of Color

Dancing Through Fields of Color By:Elizabeth Brown Published on 2019-03-19 by Abrams They said only men could paint powerful pictures, but Helen Frankenthaler (1928-2011) splashed her way through the modern art world. Channeling deep emotion, Helen poured paint onto her canvas and danced with the colors to make art unlike anything anyone had ever seen. She used unique tools like mops and squeegees to push the paint around, to dazzling effects. Frankenthaler became an originator of the influential “Color Field” style of abstract expressionist painting with her “soak stain” technique, and her artwork continues to electrify new generations of artists today. Dancing Through Fields of Color discusses Frankenthaler’s early life, how she used colors to express emotion, and how she overcame the male-dominated art world of the 1950s. This Book was ranked at 15 by Google Books for keyword twentieth century dances. Book ID of Dancing Through Fields of Color's Books is OIBsDwAAQBAJ, Book whi...

Dancing in the Streets

Dancing in the Streets By:Barbara Ehrenreich Published on 2007-12-26 by Metropolitan Books From the bestselling social commentator and cultural historian, a fascinating exploration of one of humanity's oldest traditions: the celebration of communal joy In the acclaimed Blood Rites, Barbara Ehrenreich delved into the origins of our species' attraction to war. Here, she explores the opposite impulse, one that has been so effectively suppressed that we lack even a term for it: the desire for collective joy, historically expressed in ecstatic revels of feasting, costuming, and dancing. Ehrenreich uncovers the origins of communal celebration in human biology and culture. Although sixteenth-century Europeans viewed mass festivities as foreign and |savage,| Ehrenreich shows that they were indigenous to the West, from the ancient Greeks' worship of Dionysus to the medieval practice of Christianity as a |danced religion.| Ultimately, church officials drove the festivities into the s...
