 Dance, space and subjectivity.
Author: Briginshaw, Valerie Published: 2001 Readings in American, British and European postmodern dances informed by feminist, postcolonial, queer, and poststructuralist theories. The book explores the roles dance and space play in constructing subjectivity: by focusing on site specific dance, the mutual construction of bodies and spaces, body space interfaces and 'in between spaces', dances and dance films are read against the grain to reveal their potential for troubling conventional notions of subjectivity associated with a white, Western, heterosexual able-bodied male norm. |
