Book Chapter
Dance Criticism after Dance Studies
2023
Overview
Chapter 4 interrogates relationships between dance criticism and dance studies, an interdisciplinary field that gained prominence in the 1980s and 1990s, and sought to differentiate itself from dance criticism. However, scholars in dance studies perpetuated some of the same systemic exclusions that critics reproduced during the twentieth century. This chapter suggests that dance scholars sought to validate their existence in academic settings and discourse, in part, by strategically distancing their writing from that of critics. Concurrently, in 1994, New Yorker critic Arlene Croce wrote “Discussing the Undiscussable,” a “review” of a performance by Bill T. Jones that Croce did not attend, and an article that continues to influence dance criticism and curricula.
