RTRSRCH vol. 3 no. 1: Paxton Ave Nue, a revisioning

Gepubliceerd op

This fifth issue of RTRSRCH, edited by Jeroen Fabius and Sher Doruff, is a monographic assemblage of writings by eight contributors focusing on a single, unique choreographic work: Ave Nue. The idea of reappraisal, or 're-visioning' as Paxtons puts it, is a central thread running trough the contributions. Together they form a reappraissal, a re-seeing of what the piece presented in 1985.

 

Paxton Ave Nue, a revisioning captures contributions by Jeanine Durning, Sher Doruff, Jeroen Fabius, Konstantina Georgelou, Ame Henderson, Patricia Kuypers, Martin Nachbar, Steve Paxton, Pieter T'Jonck and Myrian Van Imschoot.

Steve Paxton was Artist in Residence at de Theaterschool in 2009. Together with students of the School for New Dance Development (SNDO) and the Amsterdam Master of Choreography (AMCh) he worked on a re-visioning of his piece Ave Nue, which was originally performed in 1985.
