tempete apres tempete
AU$70 Read MoreAdd to cartRebekka Deubner
[Gent]: Art Paper Editions, 2021.“IÂ’ve been meeting you through a strip of land, called Fukushima-ken emerging of the Pacific ocean. The scenery I am wandering around is made of water and cells — randomly forming pink-whitish seaweed, shiny epidermis, teeming caves, narrow pupils, raven hair. Shamelessly IÂ’m strolling around the offered pieces of the landscape’s body. Hidden behind my telephoto lens, I am gazeating every detail of it, responding to an urge to feel and seize all the shapes emerging from the still fertile breach of a disaster and its offspring. Keiko, Natsumi, Hayato, Hitoshi, Junka, Hisashi and AsamiIf I am lucky, your defense caves in and I’ll get close, collecting scattered pieces of you and soft gestures — a face revolving — a folding hand — lips opening — a winking eyelid — my pictures become the films stills of a slow sequence shot which wasnÂ’t filmed. Suggesting the missing images from the in-between, calling out to us to fill the gaps while the nocturnal fauna of the sea is swarming through the seaweed, feeding itself on the leftovers of the wave(s).” (publisher’s blurb)

Ankoku Buto: The Premodern and Postmodern Influence on the Dance of Utter Darkness
AU$25 Read MoreAdd to cartSusan Blakeley Klein
Ithaca: East Asia Program, Cornell University, 1988.“A brief introduction to the history, philosophy, and techniques of the Japanese avant-garde dance movement, Ankoku Buto. Evoking images of grotesque beauty, revelling in the seamy underside of human behavior, Buto dance groups such as Sankai Juku and Dai Rakuda-kan have performed to wide critical and popular acclaim, making Buto one of the most influential new forces in the dance world today. The monograph traces the development of Buto from its birth in the bleak post-war landscape of 1950s Japan, and then addresses the question of Buto as a post-modern phenomenon, before going on to examine the influence of traditional Japanese performance on Buto techniques. The last chapter analyzes a specific dance (Niwa – The Garden) by Muteki-sha, to show how these techniques are used concretely. Includes translations of four essays on Buto by contemporary Japanese dance critics.” (publisher’s blurb)
