William Forsythe and the lost Stuttgart Ballets

Article Abstract:

In the mid-1970s, the American William Forsythe emerged out of a conventional environment, dancing as a member of the Stuttgart Ballet and simultaneously creating ballets that challenged the status quo. His first three works revealed the thoughts of a young man fluent in the context of a company dancing a mixture of classical and twentieth-century ballets, but his later ballets like `Orpheus', `Urlicht', `Daphne', and `Flore subsimplici' became violent and hostile and are not performed anymore, although they are considered as the work of a genius.

Inside the knot that two bodies make

Article Abstract:

The article discusses the film, "From a Classical Position" that shows mutual work between a dancer and performer and a choreographer, edited and directed by Dana Caspersen and William Forsythe. The film reckons at how the body moves under different parameters and the way in which women engage in a conversation of limbs that are tangled dialect of beauty.
