Tarasova O. I. «I and the Other»: the word and plastic in the work of the choreographer Crystal Pite

Abstract

The article analyzes the work of the Canadian choreographer Crystal Pite from the perspective of the artistic opposition «I and the Other». Analyzed are the performances «Dark Matters», «The Tempest Replica» (2011), and «Trauma» (2015) and «The Inspector General». Self-reflection, an attempt to cognize oneself through the opposition of «I» and «Other» is one of the most important features of postmodern dance in general. The metaphysics of relativity, in which you define yourself through another person, cognizing life through the reflection of the movements of an individual who expresses himself through dance, broadcasting his life experience, was characteristic of the work of Pina Bausch, and many other choreographers, found its expression in the work of Crystal Pite.
