Description

The "material turn" in science and art has brought the artistic process and the materiality of staging into focus, thereby challenging the paradigm of dance and performance as ephemeral arts. At the same time, digital media have given rise to new forms of materiality, documentation, and archiving. But what is "materiality" in dance and performance? What role do materials play as part of the cultural memory of an ephemeral art? The contributors explore concepts of materiality in dance and performance, the use of materials in artistic practices, and the role of social media in changing perceptions of dance and performance. This volume demonstrates how the focus on materiality shapes contemporary dance and performance art and challenges established concepts in performance and dance research.
