- Summary:
- "Across the fields of visual art, music, poetry, theater, and dance in the mid-twentieth century, many people began using experimental scores in ways that revolutionized artistic practice and opened up new forms of interdisciplinary collaboration. Their experimental methods became associated with the neo-avant-garde, neo-Dadaism, intermedia, Fluxus, and postmodernism, exploding in notoriety during the 1960s and becoming foundational to global trends in contemporary art and performance. The Scores Project provides an in-depth view of this historical moment. With expert commentary from interdisciplinary scholars, this book examines a series of experimental scores by John Cage, George Brecht, Sylvano Bussotti, Morton Feldman, Allan Kaprow, Alison Knowles, Jackson Mac Low, Benjamin Patterson, Yvonne Rainer, Mieko Shiomi, David Tudor, and La Monte Young. Ambitious, provocative, and playful, The Scores Project is an illuminating resource to scholars and students who seek to understand this innovative and historically complex moment in the history of art."-- provided by distributor.
