Sobre IBD

While Jews are commonly referred to as the 'people of the book,' American Jewish choreographers have consistently turned to dance as a means to articulate personal and collective identities; tangle with stereotypes; advance social and political agendas; and imagine new possibilities for themselves as individuals, artists, and Jews. Dancing Jewish delineates this rich history, demonstrating that Jewish choreographers have not only been vital contributors to American modern and postmodern dance, but that they have also played a critical and unacknowledged role in the history of Jews in the United States.

    Frederic Pouillaude

In the eyes of philosophers, dance refers to a space other than art, considered both more frivolous and more fundamental t...
