In \u003cem\u003eMoving Modernism\u003c\/em\u003e, Nell Andrew challenges assumptions about modernist abstraction and its appearance in the field of painting. By recovering performances, methods, and circles of aesthetic influence for avant-garde dance pioneers and filmmakers from the turn of the century to the interwar period including dancer Lo�e Fuller, who presented to symbolist artists the possibility of prolonged or suspended vision; Valentine de Saint-Point, whose radical dance paralleled the abstractions of cubo-futurist painting; Sophie Taeuber and her Dada dance; the Belgian \"pure plastics\" choreographer known as Akarova; and the dance-like cinema of Germaine Dulac Andrew demonstrates that abstraction was deployed not only as modernist form but as an apparatus of creation, perception, and reception across artistic media.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46418950783127,"sku":"9780190057282","price":3747.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780190057282.webp?v=1769072671","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/moving-modernism-the-urge-to-abstraction-in-painting-dance-cinema-9780190057282","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
