This collection of essays examines experimental scores and source documents from the postwar avant-gardes, interpreted by experts on art, music, dance, and poetry.
Individuals
working in and across the fields of visual art, music, poetry, theater, and
dance at midcentury began to use experimental scores in ways that
revolutionized artistic practice and opened up new forms of interdisciplinary
collaboration. Their experimental practices-associated with the
neo-avant-garde, neo-Dadaism, intermedia, Fluxus, and postmodernism-exploded
in notoriety during the 1960s in locales from New York to Europe, East Asia,
and Latin America, becoming foundational to global trends in contemporary art
and performance.
The Scores Project provides
an in-depth view of this historical moment. Through expert commentaries from
an interdisciplinary team of scholars with accompanying illustrations, this
publication examines a series of experimental scores by John Cage, George
Brecht, Sylvano Bussotti, Morton Feldman, Allan Kaprow, Alison Knowles,
Jackson Mac Low, Benjamin Patterson, Yvonne Rainer, Mieko Shiomi, David
Tudor, and La Monte Young. Ambitious, provocative, and playful, The Scores Project is an
illuminating resource to scholars and students who seek to understand this
innovative and historically complex moment in the history of art.
