Around the world, the American-born avant-garde choreographer
William Forsythe is considered one of the most significant and
innovative figures in contemporary dance. As the Director of the
Ballett Frankfurt from 1984 to 2004, he transcended the boundaries
of the genre, creating abstract and geometric dances that were
contorted, formal and difficult. Always a proponent of the use of
text, he drew on architecture, art, linguistics, physics and
philosophy, oftentimes presenting his work alongside distressingly
stark lighting and electronic music scores. In 2005, Forsythe
founded his own smaller and more flexible company, with which he
has continued to redefine the parameters of the performing arts.
Increasingly, he is working on multimedia collages--which he
presents in art galleries and public spaces with the goal of
destabilizing viewers and forcing them to acknowledge their bodies.
This volume presents recent installation and film works alongside a
text by Forsythe and a dialogue between Forsythe and critic-curator
Daniel Birnbaum.
