Focusing on the work of painter, choreographer and scenic designer
Oskar Schlemmer, the 'Master Magician' and leader of the Theatre
Workshop, this book explains this 'theatre of high modernism' and
its historical role in design and performance studies; further, it
connects the Bauhaus exploration of space with contemporary stages
and contemporary ethics, aesthetics and society. The idea of
'theatre of space' is used to highlight twentieth-century
practitioners who privilege the visual, aural, and plastic
qualities of the stage above character, narrative and, themes (for
example Schlemmer himself, Robert Wilson, Tadeusz Kantor, Robert
Lepage, Pina Bausch). This impressive volume will be of use to
students and academics involved in the areas of twentieth-century
performance, the history of performance art, the history of
avant-garde theatre, modern German theatre, and Weimar-era
performance.
