Meg Stuart - Are We Here Yet?

by Meg Stuart Jeroen Peeters

How does choreographer Meg Stuart create work? In this book, Stuart reflects on her own practice in dialogue with Jeroen Peeters and several (former) Damaged Goods collaborators. It revisits meaningful moments in Stuarts artistic trajectory, drawing different lines through the work from Disfigure Study (1991) to Maybe Forever (2007). It contains observations on making and performing, discussions about improvisation and dramaturgy, essays and visual contributions, a manual with Stuarts exercises and a selection of documents and performance texts. Essays by Myriam van Imschoot and André Lepecki as well as image contributions by Doris Dziersk, Tina Kloempken, Jorge León, and Anna Viebrock among others.
