520 |a This book compiles the writings of the author, a noted dance critic and editor. In pieces for The SoHo Weekly News, Village Voice, The New York Times, and Dance Magazine, the author limns the larger aesthetic and theoretical shifts in the dance world since the 1960s. She surveys a wide range of styles and genres, from downtown experimental performance to ballets at the Metropolitan Opera House. In opinion pieces, interviews, reviews, brief memoirs, blog posts, and contemplations on the choreographic process, she gives readers an up-close, personalized look at dancing as an art form. Dancers, choreographers, teachers, college dance students - and anyone interested in the intersection between dance and journalism - will find the author's writings inspiring. This book is a microcosm of dance's globalization and modernization that also provides an opportunity for new dancers to look back on the traditions and styles that preceded their own.
