"Muerte de Narciso" es una obra que rescata lo que ahora se da en llamar en el ámbito de la moda de tendencias y el diseño, los modos "Vintage". Pero el ballet de lonso es mucho más que una pieza circunstancial a la moda "vintage", se separa de ella con decision y algtura, no tiene nada que ver con la tan en boga corriente decontructivista (entendiendo en esgta corriente la desarticulacion del fraseo academico) o con la presencia de material recurrente obtenido desde la improvisacion, que luego, ya fijado, se convierte en materia coreutica. Aqui hay un plan coreografico previsto y estricto, muy musicl, desde la primera frase hasta el impactante final. Se trata de la danza ideada con unos fines teatratles muy precisos y en la busqueda de una plastica tambien precisa ligada de alguna manera al cofrpus neoclasicista.

Autobiografía de quien dedicó toda su vida al arte de la danza. Le dio una nueva dimensión basada en la estructura natural del cuerpo humano y en la libertad de los gestos. Punto de referencia para las nuevas generaciones de coreógrafos y bailarines.

Martha Graham, the American dancer, teacher, and choreographer, revolutionized the world of modern dance. She possessed a great gift for revealing emotion through dance, expressing beliefs and telling stories in an utterly new way. Newbery Medalist Russell Freedman documents Martha Graham''s life from her birth in 1894 to her final dance performance at the age of seventy-five and continued career as a choreographer until her death in 1991. Graham''s own recollections as well as those of her dancers, students, friends, and lovers reveal Graham''s unwavering dedication, her extraordinary sense of artistry, and the fierce intensity that left an impression on all who saw her perform. Original research based on interviews and a remarkable collection of photographs not widely reproduced give this biography a rare and unparalleled depth. Includes notes,a bibliography, and an index. A photo-biography of the American dancer, teacher, and choreographer who was born in Pittsburgh in 1895 and who became a leading figure in the world of modern dance. Freedman (Lincoln; Eleanor Roosevelt; Franklin Delano Roosevelt) once again animates American history through biography; here he adds culture to the mix as he chronicles the inspiring life of legendary dancer Martha Graham. The venerable author hooks readers in immediately with his description of young Martha learning to move her body by watching a lion pace from one side of its cage to the other. Freedman then seamlessly charts the fiery, passionate Graham''s rise from a 19-year-old "homely, overweight" dance student to principal dancer to teacher to the creator of modern dance. The biography points up Graham''s commitment to a "uniquely American style of dance," focusing on such works as Frontier, an homage to her ancestral roots, and Appalachian Spring, for which she collaborated with composer Aaron Copland. Freedman acknowledges that the dancer''s sources of inspiration and consolation came from other American artists: writer Emily Dickinson (the source of Graham''s work Acts of Light) and composer Scott Joplin (Maple Leaf Rag was her last complete work), among them. Her passions were not circumscribed to her work; she also took stands on tough political issues, both in her dance (e.g., Deep Song, 1937, which &quo

The international bestselling memoir of a world-renowned artist''s defection from China to America. From a desperately poor village in northeast China, at age eleven, Li Cunxin was chosen by Madame Mao''s cultural delegates to be taken from his rural home and brought to Beijing, where he would study ballet. In 1979, the young dancer arrived in Texas as part of a cultural exchange, only to fall in love with America-and with an American woman. Two years later, through a series of events worthy of the most exciting cloak-and-dagger fiction, he defected to the United States, where he quickly became known as one of the greatest ballet dancers in the world. This is his story, told in his own inimitable voice.
