Dance and Costumes
The subTexte series of the IPF-Institute for the Performing Arts and Film, is dedicated to presenting original research within two fields of inquiry: Performative Practice and Film. The series offers a platform for the publication of texts, images, or digital media emerging from research on, for, or through the performative arts or film. The series contributes to promoting practice-based art research beyond the ephemeral event and the isolated monograph, to reporting intermediate research findings, and to opening up comparative perspectives. www.zhdk.ch/forschung/ipf
Augusto Bournonville
Augusto Bournonville, uno de los artífices del resurgir de la danza durante el Romanticismo, dejó un legado cuyo estudio es fundamentalpara entender la técnica del ballet. Heredero de la danza argumental de Noverre y Angiolini, y precursor del esplendor del clasicismo de Petipa, fue además un maestro brillante que supo revolucionar la formación del bailarín a lo largo de sus casi cincuenta años de trabajo en el Real Ballet de Dinamarca. El estilo Bournonville, como se conoce en la actualidad, es un compendio de estética, técnica y metodología que permite que las coreografías del creador danés se puedan seguir interpretando hoy con la misma pureza y rigor que en el siglo XIX. Gracias al recorrido histórico y a las claras explicaciones técnicas que este libro ofrece, acompañadas de las fotografías de los bailarines Tamara Rojo y Sergio García, el lector encontrará aquí el instrumento indispensable para apreciar y disfrutar no sólo la obra coreográfica de Bournonville, sino también la riqueza, exigencia y brillantez del ballet clásico en todo su esplendor.
Celebrating Flamenco's Tangled Roots
This collection of essays poses a series of questions revolving around nonsense, cacophony, queerness, race, and the dancing body. How can flamenco, as a diasporic complex of performance and communities of practice frictionally and critically bound to the complexities of Spanish history, illuminate theories of race and identity in performance? How can we posit, and argue for, genealogical relationships within and between genres across the vast expanses of the African—and Roma—diaspora? Neither are the essays presented here limited to flamenco, nor, consequently, are the responses to these questions reduced to this topic. What all the contributions here do share is the wish to come together, across disciplines and subject areas, within the academy and without, in the whirling, raucous, and messy spaces where the body is free—to celebrate its questioning, as well as the depths of the wisdom and knowledge it holds and sometimes reveals.
Actor & Avatar
What kind of relationship do we have with artificial beings (avatars, puppets, robots, etc.)? What does it mean to mirror ourselves in them, to perform them or to play trial identity games with them? Actor & Avatar addresses these questions from artistic and scholarly angles. Contributions on the making of »technical others« and philosophical reflections on artificial alterity are flanked by neuroscientific studies on different ways of perceiving living persons and artificial counterparts. The contributors have achieved a successful artistic-scientific collaboration with extensive visual material.
Flamenco on the Global Stage
The language of the body is central to the study of flamenco. From the records of the Inquisition, to 16th century literature, to European travel diaries, the Spanish dancer beguiles and fascinates. The word flamenco evokes the image of a sensuous and rebellious woman--the bailaora --whose movements seduce the audience, only to reject their attention with a stomp of defiance. The dancer's body is an agent of ideological resistance, conveying a conflicting desire for subjectivity and autonomy and implying deeply held ideas about history, national identity, femininity and masculinity. This collection of new essays provides an overview of flamenco scholarship, illuminating flamenco's narrative and chronology and addressing some common misconceptions. The contributors offer fresh perspectives on age-old themes and suggest new paradigms for flamenco as a cultural practice. Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.
A tres bandas
A tres bandas ofrece, de la mano de 23 prestigiosos especialistas, un completo panorama de la compleja realidad de la música latinoamericana, fruto de cinco siglos de mestizaje, sincretismo e hibridación. De Argentina a México, de la música de salón a las expresiones musicales de los mapuche, de la zamacueca al rock, se invita al lector a realizar un apasionante viaje a partir de dos ejes fundamentales: un repaso histórico y crítico de la mezcla de razas, creencias y fusiones ocurrida en la convergencia de las culturas africana, indígena e hispánica, y el resultado de dicho proceso en las ciudades, instrumentos y prácticas sociales vinculadas a la música.
Interpretación musical y postura corporal
La profesión del músico es, desde el punto de vista intelectual, físico y psíquico, una actividad de alto rendimiento. Con los esfuerzos cotidianos, como pruebas, estudio diario, análisis de estructuras musicales, pero también los viajes internacionales y la irregularidad de la vida diaria, el músico llega al límite de su capacidad.
