Sacred Monsters: Sylvie Guillem & Akram Khan.
Published: 2009 This major work brings together two of today's pre-eminent dance talents, Akram Khan, world renowned for developing his own 'contemporary Kathak' style, and international superstar Sylvie Guillem, as they explore the dynamics and language of two great classical dance forms, kathak and ballet. 'I have spent my life studying and performing kathak. It is the source of my creative process. Working with Sylvie Guillem is an exciting new challenge, giving me the opportunity to explore another classical dance language with one of its greatest exponents, and as a result unearth the things that are most often lost between the classical and modern world.' Akram Khan. Exclusive DVD bonus features include: in-depth interviews with key collaborators, stills gallery and limited edition collector's booklet. [Uncoded, for world-wide use.] |
