Murray Louis on Dance,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Murray Louis On Dance, written by one of today's great dancers, choreographers, and teachers, reveals what it's really like to be a performing artist. Part philosophy, part history, and part autobiography, this tender and witty work takes the reader on an odyssey from a Brooklyn orphanage where Louis was raised to the great concert halls of the world, home to some of his personal triumphs. Along the way, he introduces many memorable characters, including Essie, the dancer determined to perform despite her personal limitations, and a chance encounter with an airconditioner repairman, who helped save Louis's performing career. In On Dance, Louis is unafraid to move from the sacred (what are the roots of creativity?) to the mundane (why are all dressing rooms dimly lit, drafty closets?)A dancer's life is not all leaps, turns, and curtain calls; behind the grace, agility, and speed lie years of training, injury, financial duress, and the struggle that underlies every dancer's career. In a series of engaging essays, Louis tackles diverse subjects including the drive to perform, the grueling life of a touring artist, and the relentless quest for perfection, both physical and mental. Louis is a remarkable writer, capturing the fears and joys, neardisasters and triumphs that every performing artist must face.From the Lascaux cave paintings executed by anonymous artists thousands of years ago to today's urban caverns, subway stops decorated by unknown hands with splattered graffiti, the artist strives to leave his indelible mark on our culture. Through his dance works and writings, Murray Louis is a compelling voice for an essential issue facing our time: the survival of human values in an increasingly hostile world. Murray Louis: On Dance celebrates the triumph of the artist over adversity, and will be an inspiration to dance viewers and anyone who aspires to a career in the arts.
