Avant-Garde Theories in Art and Theatre
This guide invites you on an explorative journey through the transformative theories that have shaped avant-garde art and theatre. Beginning with the radical Dadaist movement led by figures like Marcel Duchamp, we examine the era's quest to free performance from the confines of traditional stages. We delve into the challenge against Cartesian dualism, emphasizing the body's role in the theatrical experience. The guide further explores Antonin Artaud's revolutionary Theatre of Cruelty, which sought to integrate text with the visceral presence of the body. Lastly, we consider Jacques Derrida's concept of deconstruction and its impact on redefining audience interaction. This comprehensive overview is essential for students, scholars, and enthusiasts seeking to understand the evolution of contemporary art and performance theory.
