Hijikata Tatsumi's explosive 1959 debut Forbidden Colors sparked a
new genre of performance in Japan - butoh: an art form of
contrasts, by turns shocking and serene. Since then, though
interest has grown exponentially, and people all over the world are
drawn to butoh's ability to enact paradox and contradiction,
audiences are less knowledgeable about the contributions and
innovations of the founder of butoh. Hijikata Tatsumi and Butoh
traces the rollicking history of the creation and initial
maturation of butoh, and locates Hijikata's performances within the
intellectual, cultural, and economic ferment of Japan from the
sixties to the eighties.
