»Inheriting Dance. An Invitation from Pina« sets out at the historical moment we found ourselves in after the passing of Pina Bausch. The Pina Bausch Foundation started their work of carrying the artistic heritage of dancer and choreographer Pina Bausch into the future. This book reflects discussions and questions aroused by her work: How to archive dance? How to deal with the performative heritage at the outset of the 21st century? How to describe the performativity of remembering? And finally, what is the task of an archive for tomorrow, an archive to serve as a workshop for the future? Furthermore, »Inheriting Dance« provides profound insight into the practical work of the Pina Bausch Foundation, on a local, national and global level, aiming at an archive as a place of transformation, exchange, creative production, and artistic practice, similar to an abundantly growing garden. A place for future generations of dancers, artists, non-professionals, and scholars. Contributions by Salomon Bausch, Stephan Brinkmann, Royd Climenhaga, Katharina Kelter, Gabriele Klein, Sharon Lehner, Keziah Claudine Nanevie, Linda Seljimi, Bernhard Thull, Michelle Urban and Marc Wagenbach.
Pina Bausch's work has had tremendous impact across the spectrum of late twentieth-century performance practice. It helped to redefine the possibilities of what both dance and theater can be. This edited collection presents a compendium of source material combined with contextual essays that serve as a base for the study of Pina Bausch's performance work. Edited by a renowned Bausch expert, Royd Climenhaga, it promises to help to open up Bausch's performative world for students, scholars and practitioners alike.
This volume provides new, ground-breaking perspectives on the globally renowned work of the Tanztheater Wuppertal and its iconic founder and artistic director, Pina Bausch. The company's performances, how it developed its productions, the global transfer of its choreographic material and the reactions of audiences and critics are explained as complex, interdependent and reciprocal processes of translation. This is the first book to focus on the artistic research conducted for the Tanztheater's international coproductions and features extensive interviews with dancers, collaborators and spectators and provides first-hand ethnographic insights into the work process. By introducing the praxeology of translation as a key methodological concept for dance research, Gabriele Klein argues that Pina Bausch's lasting legacy is defined by an entanglement of temporalities that challenges the notion of contemporaneity.
Analyses the Tanztheater Wuppertal in the light of Edward Said's theory of Orientalism.
This newly-updated second edition explores Pina Bausch’s work and methods by combining interviews, first-hand accounts, and practical exercises from her developmental process for students of both dance and theatre. This comprehensive overview of her work offers new and exciting insight into the theatrical approach of a singular performance practitioner. This is an essential introduction to the life and work of one of the most significant choreographers/directors of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. As a first step towards critical understanding, and as an initial exploration before going on to further, primary research, Routledge Performance Practitioners offer unbeatable value for today’s student.
Das Tanztheater trifft den Nerv unseren Zeit. Beredsamkeit des Körpers, Sinnlichkeit der Bewegung, Dynamik von Selbsterfahrung und wortloser Begegnung verdichten sich darin zu praktischer Zivilisationskritik, zugleich erweitern sie das Audrucksrepertoire von Bühnentanz und Schauspiel. Susanne Schlicher stellt das Werk der Protagonisten dieser zeitgenössischen Theaterkunst vor, sie zeichnet die Geschichte des Tanztheaters in der Bundesrepublik nach und analysiert diese besondere Entwicklung auch mit Blick auf Tendenzen im Sprechtheater. Eine Theorie des Tantheaters, die die Stücke lebendig werden lässt. (4e de couverture).

Gabriele Klein präsentiert eine neue Sichtweise auf die Arbeit des Tanztheaters Wuppertal: Die Entwicklung und Aufführung der Stücke, die Weitergabe von choreografischem Material und die Reaktionen der Öffentlichkeit werden als komplexe, voneinander abhängige und wechselseitige Übersetzungsprozesse dargestellt. Das Buch rückt zum ersten Mal die künstlerische Forschung vor allem bei den internationalen Koproduktionen des weltweit bekannten Ensembles in den Fokus und bietet umfangreiches empirisches Material in Form von Interviews mit Tänzer*innen, Mitarbeiter*innen und Publikum sowie ethnografische Studien an den koproduzierenden Orten. Eine Praxeologie des kulturellen und ästhetischen Übersetzens wird als tragfähiges Schlüsselkonzept für die Erforschung von Tanz und Kunst eingeführt.
