Synopsis: |
The Art of Light on Stage is the first history of theatre lighting design to bring the story right up to date. In this extraordinary volume, award-winning designer Yaron Abulafia explores the poetics of light, charting the evolution of lighting design against the background of contemporary performance. The book looks at the material and the conceptual; the technological and the transcendental. Never before has theatre design been so vividly and excitingly illuminated. ? The book examines the evolution of lighting design in contemporary theatre through an exploration of two fundamental issues:? 1.? ? ? ? ? ? What gave rise to the new directions in lighting design in contemporary theatre?2.? ? ? ? ? ? How can these new directions be viewed within the context of lighting design history?? The study then focuses on the phenomenological and semiotic aspects of the medium for light - the role of light as a performer, as the medium of visual perception and as a stimulus for imaginative representations - in selected contemporary theatre productions by Robert Wilson, Romeo Castellucci, Heiner Goebbels, Jossi Wieler and David Zinder. ? This ground-breaking book will be required reading for anyone concerned with the future of performance. |
