In 'Revisions', Rainer pushes her interest in embodied activism to a new arena: what she calls the "dance rant." This volume includes the final iteration of Rainer's latest dance rant, entitled 'A Truncated History of the Universe for Dummies'. This performance piece evolved in live presentations in Dublin, Stockholm, and New York before being expanded and adapted in written form here. In this now-completed work, Rainer mobilizes her rage and bafflement at contemporary political events through the guise of Apollo, Leader of the Muses. 'Revisions' also includes a compilation of emails and diary entries that provide a real-time account of Rainer's process of creating and workshopping a dance. "Pedagogical Vaudeville 3" reveals Rainer's consistent interest in reworking and reconsidering material across multiple mediums, formats, and contexts, and offers an unique glimpse at the working methods of one of this century's preeminent dance artists. Bookended with an introduction by artist and scholar Gregg Bordowitz and an analysis of Rainer's 'AG Indexical with a Little Help from H. M'. by dance historian Anna Staniczenko, these texts serve not only as a revision of the conventional understanding of five decades of Rainer's production, but also as a timely manual for performance as an act of resistance. 600 10 $a Rainer, Yvonne, $d 1934- 650 0 $a Dance $x Political aspects. 650 0 $a Performance art $x Political aspects. 700 1 $a Churner, Rachel, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20210707014728.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=628CA84C7CB711EB8C51190E5AECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
