Paperback. Condition: New. Honorable Mention, Latin American Studies Association Mexico Section Best Book in the HumanitiesA Revolution in Movement is the first book to illuminate how collaborations between dancers and painters shaped Mexico's postrevolutionary cultural identity. K. Mitchell Snow traces this relationship throughout nearly half a century of developments in Mexican dance-the emulation of Diaghilev's Ballets Russes in the 1920s, the adoption of U.S.-style modern dance in the 1940s, and the creation of ballet-inspired folk dance in the 1960s.Snow describes the appearances in Mexico by Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova and Spanish concert dancer Tortóla Valencia, who helped motivate Mexico to express its own national identity through dance.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. Brand new hardcover book! ; 115 color plates. Trevor Southey is a man who has risked much in putting into practice his personal and artistic vision of life. This thoughtful memoir is neither laudation nor apologia. Instead, Southey gives insight into his art by recollecting his life's journey up to this point. Regardless of one's ultimate judgement of his life or art, one must marvel at the candor of Trevor Southey in an age of evasion and fault deflection. This volume (12" x 13¼") looks back on an admirable body of work, it equally anticipates works of art yet to come in a distinguished career. The ideas in Southey's works emerge from within, just as their thematic material results from the interplay of the external elements of his life and the internal workings of his spirit. The primordial men and women of his work inhabit neither past nor present. They remind us that even though humanity may think it has momentarily lost possession of its soul, the soul's beauty remains. Southey's idealized beings aim to transform humanity's future by challenging viewers to rediscover themselves.; 14" x 16"; 204 (115 Color Plates) pages.…
