Abstract

Blondell Cummings : Dance as Moving Pictures is the first monograph dedicated to the pivotal work of African American choreographer and video artist Blondell Cummings. A foundational figure in American dance, Cummings bridged postmodern dance experimentation and Black cultural traditions. Through her unique movement vocabulary, which she called "moving pictures," Cummings combined the visual imagery of photography and the kinetic energy of movement in order to explore the emotional details of daily rituals and the intimacy of Black home life. Bringing together reprints, an extended biography, a chronology of her work, rarely seen documentation, and new research, this book begins to contextualize Cummings's practice at the intersection of dance, moving image, and art histories.

Abstract

De essays in dit boek onderzoeken hoe twintigste-eeuwse vrouwelijke artiesten zichzelf representeren op het raakvlak van het visuele beeld, geschreven tekst en performance. Veertien auteurs kijken hoe deze artiesten gebruik maken van verschillende media - schilderkunst, fotografie, performance, beeldhouwen, verhaal, lied, gedicht, manifest - om hybride zelfportretten te creëren die tussenkomen in kritische debatten over subjectiviteit, feminisme en de geschiedenis van beeldvorming in het westen.
