Through seven key case studies from Khan's oeuvre, this book demonstrates how Khan's philosophy and aesthetic of 'new interculturalism' is a challenge to the 1980s predominantly western 'intercultural theatre' project, as a more nuanced and embodied approach to representing Othernesses, from his own position of the Other. Additionally, the book challenges popular perception of Khan's art as contemporary South Asian dance by suggesting that, instead, Khan uses South Asian dramaturgical principles to transform the western contemporary dance landscape in intercultural ways. Offering the first full- length investigation of Akram Khan's work, this book is essential reading for students, researchers, practitioners and fans of Khan's work"--|cProvided by publisher. 600 10 Khan, Akram,|d1974-|xCriticism and interpretation. 776 08 |iebook version|z9781137393661. 830 0 New world choreographies. 907 .b76521564|b04-12-16|c10-02-15 910 OCLC BibNote|bMaster record variable field(s) change: 776 910 RDA ENRICHED 910 ybp 910 Backstage 910 TOC 910 Hathi Trust report SPM 910 BROWNu 970 01 |tList of Images|pviii 970 01 |tSeries Editors' Preface|pix 970 01 |tPreface|pxi 970 01 |tAcknowledgements|pxvi 970 01 |tIntroduction|p1 970 11 |l1.|tKhan's Body-of-Action|p31 970 11 |l2.|tCorporeal Gestures in Gnosis (2010)|p52 970 11 |l3.|tAuto-ethnography and Loose in Flight (1999)|p71 970 11 |l4.|tThird Space Politics in Zero Degrees (2005) and Desh (2011)|p92 970 11 |l5.|tMobility and Flexibility in Bahok (2008)|p115 970 11 |l6.|tQueering Normativity in iTMOi (2013)|p137 970 01 |tConclusion|p154 970 01 |tAppendix: List of Performances|p169 970 01 |tNotes|p171 970 01 |tBibliography|p179 970 01 |tIndex|p193 998 r0001|b10-02-15|cm|da|e-|feng|genk|h0|i1 998 r0001|b10-02-15|cm|da|e-|feng|genk|h0|i1
