Ähnlich und doch verschieden: Sinn und Sinne im Tanz. Sinn steht für Sinnhaftes, für Einsicht und Vernunft - und mit Sinne wird alles Sinnliche, wird Erfahrung und Wahrnehmung verbunden. Tanz macht Sinn, Tanz ist Sinnlichkeit. Aus der Reibung dieser beiden Pole entstehen für den künstlerischen Tanz wie auch für deren Erforschung neuartige Ansätze. Das im Körper gespeicherte Wissen spielt dabei eine bedeutende Rolle. Aus der Perspektive unterschiedlicher Autor*innen aus Kunst und Wissenschaft werden Wege aufgezeigt, wie aus verschiedenen Situationen neuartige Zugänge zu künstlerischer, forschender und vermittelnder Praxis entspringen können.Dieses gtf-Jahrbuch entstand in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Institute for the Performing Arts and Film (IPF) der Zürcher Hochschule der Künste und erscheint als Band 20 der Reihe subTexte.

Die Corona-Pandemie verdeutlicht, wie eine Gesellschaft mit eingeschränktem körperlichem Miteinander und verringertem Bewegungsradius Formate des Teilens entwickelt. Im Teilen verbirgt sich eine Doppelbedeutung: mitteilen und teilhaben, aber auch zerteilen, Differenzen erfahren. Welche Bedeutung hat das Teilen für die tänzerische Praxis? Welche Formen des Tanzes treten dabei hervor? Und welche Zugänge des Teilens wurden in Online-Formaten entwickelt? Die Beiträger*innen des Bandes betrachten Ausschlusspraktiken und untersuchen das Teilen aus einer dekolonialen Perspektive, um (Un-)Möglichkeiten des In-Kontakt-Tretens von Kunstschaffenden, Forschenden und Zuschauenden zu entwerfen.

"Argentinean tango is a global phenomenon. Since its origin among immigrants from the slums of Buenos Aires and Montevideo, it has crossed and re-crossed many borders.Yet, never before has tango been danced by so many people and in so many different places as today. Argentinean tango is more than a specific music and style of dancing. It is also a cultural imaginary which embodies intense passion, hyper-heterosexuality, and dangerous exoticism. In the wake of its latest revival, tango has become both a cultural symbol of Argentinean national identity and a transnational cultural space in which a modest, yet growing number of dancers from different parts of the globe meet on the dance floor. Through interviews and ethnographical research in Amsterdam and Buenos Aires, Kathy Davis shows why a dance from another era and another place appeals to men and women from different parts of the world and what happens to them as they become caught up in the tango salon culture. She shows how they negotiate the ambivalences, contradictions, and hierarchies of gender, sexuality, and global relations of power between North and South in which Argentinean tango is - and has always been - embroiled. Davis also explores her uneasiness about her own passion for a dance which - when seen through the lens of contemporary critical feminist and postcolonial theories - seems, at best, odd, and, at worst, disreputable and even a bit shameful. She uses the disjuncture between the incorrect pleasures and complicated politics of dancing tango as a resource for exploring the workings of passion as experience, as performance, and as cultural discourse. She concludes that dancing tango should be viewed less as a love/hate embrace with colonial overtones than a passionate encounter across many different borders between dancers who share a desire for difference and a taste of the 'elsewhere.'Dancing Tango is a vivid, intriguing account of an important global cultural phenomenon"--

Beyond Words presents a range of illuminating approaches to examining every day social interactions, to help the reader understand human movement in new ways. Carol-Lynne Moore and Kaoru Yamamoto build on the principles that they expertly explored in the first edition of the book, maintaining a focus on the processes of movement as opposed to discussions of static body language. The authors combine textual discussion with a new set of website-hosted video instructions to ensure that readers develop an in-depth understanding of nonverbal communication, as well as the work of its most influential analyst, Rudolf Laban. This fully-revised, extensively illustrated second edition includes a new introduction by the authors. It presents a fascinating insight into this vital field of study, and will be an invaluable resource for scholars and practitioners in many activities, from performing and martial arts, athletics, to therapeutic and spiritual practices, conflict resolution, business interactions, and intercultural relations.

"Dance and film have shared a dynamic relationship since the advent of cinema-a natural interplay that developed into the genre known as screendance. During Hollywood's Golden Age, screendance film festivals emerged, celebrating the work of dancers like Bill "Bojangles" Robinson and Shirley Temple in The Little Colonel (1935), the Nicholas Brothers in Stormy Weather (1943), Cyd Charisse and Gene Kelley in Singin' in the Rain (1952), Rita Moreno in West Side Story (1961), and many more. Charting the history of the screendance festival, this book examines important shifts in practice and theory, distinct festival eras and communities, and the process of selecting and programming works.-Provided by publisher"--
