What is the essence of "black" dance in America, and what is the
black dancing body? To answer these question, Brenda Dixon
Gottschild charts an unorthodox history by mapping the geography of
the black dancing body and showing its central place in our
culture. From feet to buttocks, hair, skin, face and beyond to soul
and spirit, the author explores the endeavors, ordeals and triumphs
of this body with some of the major dancers and choreographers of
our time--Fernando Bujones, Brenda Bufalino, Trisha Brown, Garth
Fagan, Rennie Harris, Bill T. Jones, Ralph Lemon, Susanne Linke,
Meredith Monk and a cadre of their esteemed colleagues. Since race
and color are usually taboo subjects in the dance world, what the
author finds out is sure to cause controversy and turn heads.
Written by one of the foremost American dance critics of our day,
"The Black Dancing Body" is a key to the ineffable rhythms and
movement of dance in America.
