Beth Weinstein (Architect and Associate Professor, School of Ar chitecture) will speak about her recently published monograph, Ar chitecture and Choreography: Collaborations in Dance, Space and Time (Routledge, 2024).
The book examines th e field of archi-choreographic experiments—unique interdisci plinary encounters and performed events generated through collaborations b etween architects and choreographers. Forty case studies spanning four dec ades give evidence of the range of motivations for embarking on these crea tive endeavors and diverse conceptual underpinnings, generative methods, o bjects of inquiry, and outcomes. Architecture and Choreography builds histories and theories through which to examine these works , the contexts within, and processes through which the works emerged, and the critical questions they raise about ways to work together, sites and c itations, ethics and equity, control and agency. Three themes fr ame pairs of chapters. The first addresses disciplinarity through works th at critically reflect upon their discipline’s tools, techniques, and conve ntions juxtaposed against projects that cite or use other art forms and cu ltural phenomena as source material. The second interrogates space and the role of spatial dispositifs, institutions, and sites, and their hidd en and not-so-hidden conditions, as conceptual drivers and struc tures to subvert, trouble, unsettle, remember. The third asks who and what dances, finding a spectrum from mobilized architectural bodies to more th an human cybarcorps. Modes of collaboration and the temporalities and life cycles of projects inform bookending chapters. Architecture and Choreography offers vital lessons not only for architects a nd choreographers but also for students and practitioners across design an d performance fields.
