Publisher's Synopsis
Outcast Samurai Dancer is a visual documentary of Japan's real dance avant-garde: the contemporary artists who are using their bodies to wage a creative revolution. Through the erratic, erotic, grotesque, uncontrolled and otherworldy movements of the experimental stage, these dancers are researching new possibilities for the body, methods for liberating gesture from the rigid constraints of the most choregraphed culture on earth. With over 50 colour photographs.
