The Oxford Handbook of Screendance Studies offers a full overview of the histories; practices; and critical and theoretical foundations of the rapidly changing landscape of screendance. Drawing on their practices; technologies; theories; and philosophies; scholars from the fields of dance; performance; visual art; cinema and media arts articulate the practice of screendance as an interdisciplinary; hybrid form that has yet to be correctly sited as an academic field worthy of critical investigation.Each chapter discusses and reframe current issues; as a means of promoting and enriching dialogue within the wider community of dance and the moving image. Topics addressed embrace politics of the body; agency; race; and gender in screendance; the relationship of choreography to image; constructs of space and time; representation and effacement; production and curatorial practice; and other areas of intersecting disciplines.The Oxford Handbook of Screendance Studies features newly-commissioned and original scholarship that will be essential reading for all those interested in the intersection of dance and the moving image; including film and video-makers; dance artists; screendance artists; academics and writers; producers; composers; as well as the wider interested public. It will become an invaluable resource for researchers and professionals in the field.
