{"product_id":"queer-dance-clare-croft-9780199377336","title":"Queer Dance","description":"If we imagine multiple ways of being together, how might that shift choreographic practices and help us imagine ways groups assemble in more varied ways than just pairing another man with another woman? How might dancing queerly ask us to imagine futures through something other than heterosexuality and reproduction? How does challenging gender binaries always mean thinking about race, thinking about the postcolonial, about ableism? What are the arbitrary rules structuring dance in all its arenas, whether concert and social or commercial and competition, and how do we see those invisible structures and work to disrupt them? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cem\u003eQueer Dance\u003c\/em\u003e brings together artists and scholars in a multi-platformed project-book, accompanying website, and live performance series to ask, \"How does dancing queerly progressively challenge us?\" The artists and scholars whose writing appears in the book and whose performances and filmed interviews appear online stage a range of genders and sexualities that challenge and destabilize social norms. Engaging with dance making, dance scholarship, queer studies, and other fields, \u003cem\u003eQueer Dance \u003c\/em\u003easks how identities, communities, and artmaking and scholarly practices might consider what queer work the body does and can do. There is great power in claiming queerness in the press of bodies touching or in the exceeding of the body best measured in sweat and exhaustion. How does queerness exist in the realm of affect and touch, and what then might we explore about queerness through these pleasurable and complex bodily ways of knowing?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Clare Croft\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0199377332\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780199377336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/28\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.00w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2018","brand":"Clare Croft","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43987265454335,"sku":"9780199377336","price":52.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_730c1ea7-95b4-4810-801e-8e17c772de4d.jpg?v=1683287950","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/queer-dance-clare-croft-9780199377336","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
