内容説明

What is the essence of black dance in America? To answer that question, Brenda Dixon Gottschild maps an unorthodox "geography", the geography of the black dancing body, to show the central place black dance has in American culture. From feet to the butt to hair to skin/face and beyond to soul/spirit, Brenda Dixon Gottschild talks to some of the greatest choreographers of the day including Garth Fagan, Francesca Harper, Meredith Monk, Brenda Buffalino, Doug Elkins, Ralph Lemon, Fernando Bujones, Bill T. Jones, Trisha Brown, Jawole Zollar, Bebe Miller, Sean Curran and Shelly Washington to look at the evolution of black dance and its importance to American culture.
