Sammanfattning: "The Choreography of Environments: How the Home of Anna and Lawrence Halprin Transformed Contemporary Dance and Urban Design, opens with an odd premise: objects and the domestic spaces dancers occupy seep into their aesthetic consciousness, shaping their approach to movement invention and choreography. If these objects and spaces happen to have been designed by a leading modernist architect and landscape designer working with the dancer, then the aesthetic imprint is amplified. Dance innovation becomes pressed into dialogue with spatial, environmental, and urban agendas. Choreography of Environments is the first monograph to use ordinary objects from a private residence as lenses into viewing innovations in dance and urban design. This book posits the Halprins' 1950s iconic mid-century modern home and expansive outdoor dance deck in Northern California as a hidden archive." -- Utgivarens hemsida.
