Martha Hill and the Making of American Dance
Author: Janet Mansfield Soares
Publisher: Wesleyan University Press
ISBN: 0819569747
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 455
Book Description
A lively and intimate portrait of an unsung heroine in American dance Martha Hill (1900–1995) was one of the most influential figures of twentieth century American dance. Her vision and leadership helped to establish dance as a serious area of study at the university level and solidify its position as a legitimate art form. Setting Hill's story in the context of American postwar culture and women's changing status, this riveting biography shows us how Hill led her colleagues in the development of American contemporary dance from the Kellogg School of Physical Education to Bennington College and the American Dance Festival to the Juilliard School at Lincoln Center. She created pivotal opportunities for Martha Graham, Doris Humphrey, Charles Weidman, Hanya Holm, José Limón, Merce Cunningham, and many others. The book provides an intimate look at the struggles and achievements of a woman dedicated to taking dance out of the college gymnasium and into the theatre, drawing on primary sources that were previously unavailable. It is lavishly illustrated with period photographs.

The Virgin of Bennington
Author: Kathleen Norris
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 9781573229135
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
Shy and sheltered as a young woman, Kathleen Norris wasn't prepared for the sex, drugs, and bohemianism of Bennington College in the late 1960s—and when she moved to New York City after graduation, it was a case of out of the frying pan and into the fire. In this chronicle, Norris remembers the education she received, both formal and fortuitous; the influence of her mentor Betty Kray, who shunned the spotlight while serving as a guiding force in the poetry world of the late 20th century; her encounters with such figures as James Merrill, Jim Carroll, Denise Levertov, Stanley Kunitz, Patti Smith, and Erica Jong; and her eventual decision to leave Manhattan for the less-crowded landscape she described so memorably in Dakota. This account of the making of a young writer will resonate with anyone who has stumbled bravely into a bigger world and found the poetry that lurks on rooftops and in railroad apartments—and with anyone who has enjoyed the blessings of inspiring teachers and great friends.

Queer Paranormal
Author: Two Chairs
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781732360525
Category :
Languages : en
Pages :
Book Description
Gallery catalog for Queer Paranormal (an exhibition concerning Shirley Jackson and "The Haunting of Hill House"), on view at Usdan Gallery, Bennington College, October-December 2019. With essays by the Two Chairs collective, which curated the exhibition, and Usdan Gallery Director Anne Thompson. Queer Paranormal presented a range of artistic practices "haunted" by historical, political and sexual difference. Taking Jackson's gothic horror classic and its 1963 film version as jumping-off points, the exhibition identifies queerness in themes including witchcraft, the uncanny and the stranger, as well as the haunted house as an undiscovered country and object of desire. Site-specifically located in North Bennington, where Jackson wrote The Haunting of Hill House, Queer Paranormal installed artworks in indoor and outdoor locations across the Bennington campus, including the Jennings music building-a former mansion believed to be haunted and said to have partly influenced Jackson's portrait of Hill House. Participating artists: Peggy Ahwesh; the APRIORI techno-botanical coven; Anna Campbell; Tony Do; Lana Lin; Susan MacWilliam; Senem Pirler; Macon Reed; Zoe Walsh; and Sasha Wortzel.
