Résumé :
The first anthology to explore the work choreographers create for nontraditional performance spaces and the thinking behind their creative choices. Combining interviews with and essays by some of the most prominent and influential practitioners of site dance, Kloetzel and Pavlik raise crucial questions about the site-specific dance genre and provide a portrait of an increasingly relevant cultural practice.
The close examinations of the work of such artists as Meredith Monk, Joanna Haigood, Stephan Koplowltz, Heidi Duckler, Ann Carlson, and Eiko Otake offer important insights into what motivates some choreographers to leave the theater and embrace the challenges of unconventional venues."
