Dancing The Fairy Tale, Laura E. Katz Rizzo
Dancing The Fairy Tale, Laura E. Katz Rizzo
Laura E Katz Rizzo
“Dancing the Fairy Tale offers a new historical perspective on the development of the art of ballet, and how women have played pivotal roles as performing artists, directors, and producers. Laura Katz Rizzo uses The Sleeping Beauty as her vehicle and she debunks the prevailing historical narrative that ballet’s evolution has been linear and dominated by male choreographers and directors. She successfully argues that the ballerina is an integral part of the creative process. Well written, and extensively researched, Dancing the Fairy Tale will be a welcome addition to any balletomane’s library, and an excellent text for courses in dance …
Queer Decolonial: Quando As Teorias Viajam, Pedro Paulo Gomes Pereira
Queer Decolonial: Quando As Teorias Viajam, Pedro Paulo Gomes Pereira
Pedro Paulo Gomes Pereira
Este artigo busca acompanhar viagens de teorias para delinear os contornos principais do encontro entre teoria queer e pensamento decolonial. A tentativa é, de forma inicial e provisória e sem qualquer pretensão de responder definitivamente às questões, formular perguntas como: o encontro entre pensamento decolonial e teoria queer poderia produzir algo mais para que se pudesse falar, como enunciado no título deste artigo, em um “queer decolonial”? Ou seriam teorias incompatíveis, já que o próprio fato de o termo queer estar em inglês sinalizaria uma geopolítica a que o pensamento decolonial buscaria exatamente se contrapor? Haveria algo em comum nessas …
The New 'Porn Wars': Representing Gay Male Sexuality In The Middle East, Evangelos Tziallas
The New 'Porn Wars': Representing Gay Male Sexuality In The Middle East, Evangelos Tziallas
Evangelos Tziallas
This article argues that Michael Lucas’ Men of Israel was made in response to the rising popularity of Arab themes, performers and locations in recent gay male pornography, particularly American studio-based productions. The article explores how recent representations of Arab society, culture and men in gay male pornography employ varying degrees of performativity and authenticity in an attempt to break down differences, and bridge connections, between East and West, while Lucas and his film attempt to maintain that rigid imaginary border. I argue that the texts are a microcosm of the contentious and ongoing debates about homosexuality in the East …

Filming Dance: Embodied Syntax In Sasha Waltz’S ‘S’, Helen A. Fielding
Filming Dance: Embodied Syntax In Sasha Waltz’S ‘S’, Helen A. Fielding
Helen A Fielding
This paper brings Merleau-Ponty’s phenomenological approach to Sasha Waltz’s dance film S, which focuses on the relation between sexuality and language. Maintaining that movement in cinema takes place in the viewers and not the film, the paper considers how the visual can be deepened to include the ways we move and are moved. Saussure’s insights into language are brought to the sensible, which is here understood in terms of divergences from norms. Though film would seem to privilege vision, viewing this film helps to elucidate Merleau-Ponty’s claim that a film succeeds when it engages the viewer’s embodied understanding, and shifts …
Cultivating Perception: Phenomenological Encounters With Artworks, Helen A. Fielding
Cultivating Perception: Phenomenological Encounters With Artworks, Helen A. Fielding
Helen A Fielding
Phenomenally strong artworks have the potential to anchor us in the world and to cultivate our perception. For the most part, we barely notice the world around us, as we are too often elsewhere, texting, coordinating schedules, planning ahead, navigating what needs to be done. This is the level of our age that shapes the ways we encounter the world and others. In such a world it is no wonder we no longer trust our senses. But as feminists have long argued, grounding our thinking in embodied experience opens it up to difference and helps us to resist the colonization …
