Swedish dance company Art of Spectra have created an exciting and dynamic performance looking at the invasion and the handling of crossing personal and private boundaries.

Choreographer and composer, Peter Svenzon, founded Art of Spectra in 1998. His artistic expression is very significant and physical - communicating directly with both young and adult audiences.

In Between Butoh
Beings
Butoh performance inspired by "The Cenci" by Antonin Artaud.
Danced by Flavia Ghisalberti and Ezio Tangini. Music by Frank Heierli.
Beings is on the inevitability of evil, on the superfluity and unmasked falsity of any consciousness. There is no
innocence or guilt. Beatrice Cenci goes against the current morality. Her act is a revolt against arrogant
aristocracy and conformism.
'The most incredible thing is that, from this prison which life is, you will expect something else than tortures'.
A. Artaud
'The characters are not men but beings, great incarnated forces; just enough humanity remains to render
them plausible from the psychological point of view'. Antonin Artaud

New Titles at Dance Books

View New Titles at Dance Books on DanceWeb DanceWeb

New titles this week include a welcome reprint of the exceedingly scarce Ivor Guest edited book on La Fille mal gardée, first published nearly 50 years and long out of print. We have also reprints of Jack Anderson's classic book on the Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo and Crawford Flitch's very rare 1912 book 'Modern dancing and dancers'. Other new books include a major text on modern dance by the French dance theorist Laurence Louppe, and the proceedings of a recent conference on Rudolf Laban.

CDs include a whole series of bargain priced 2 DVD sets with some classic performances, and the first appearance anywhere of Terence Kern conducting a complete 'Giselle' with the London Festival Ballet Orchestra, taken at dance performance speed.

And on DVD is a major educational tool on collaborative choreography, based on the work of Pete Shenton and Tom Roden.

As usual, you'll find details of these and many other new releases at:
