Description

Explore the history of Butoh dance through this scholarly work from Routledge. Butoh America unearths the networks and people who helped popularize this dance form across the United States and Mexico from 1970 to the early 2000s. This text provides a focused look at key artists, producers, and festivals that shaped the movement. As the first book to gather these histories into one narrative, it tracks the development of American Butoh from its 1976 San Francisco inception. The book examines how the form connected with avant-garde performance art in alternative venues, including galleries and experimental theaters. Readers will learn how institutions like La MaMa in New York and the Festival Internacional Cervantino in Guanajuato helped establish Butoh as an esteemed art form. This is an essential resource for those studying theatre, performance studies, and the evolution of dance in the Americas.
