DANC 474 - History of Postmodern Choreography and Practice Explores postmodern dance (1960-present) from theoretical and practical perspectives. Theoretical and historical readings from dance, performance, and cultural studies on postmodern dance combine with the application and investigation of choreographic theories in the dance studio. As the dancing draws on an everyday or pedestrian movement vocabulary, no prior dance experience is necessary. This course covers artists such as Yvonne Rainer, Trisha Brown, David Gordon, and Bill T. Jones. The postmodern dance aesthetic is interdisciplinary in nature: choreographers frequently collaborate with artists from other disciplines, such as music, visual arts, and theater. This course is appropriate for students interested in intellectual and experiential artistic practices.
Prerequisites: SOPH OR JR OR SR Credit Hours: 4 General Education Code: 2FA Repeat/Retake Information: May not be retaken. Note: Effective Summer Quarter 2010-11 (June 2011) any non-repeatable course may be retaken two times excluding withdrawals, but only last course taken counts.
