    Staging visibilities: Stanislavsky’s system, photography, and epistemologies of the body, 1870–1938

    Kairschner, Shawn Travis, «Staging visibilities: Stanislavsky’s system, photography, and epistemologies of the body, 1870–1938». Ph.D., , Ann Arbor, United States 2007 Abstract This dissertation locates turn of the century acting techniques within a set of diagnostic discourses that strive to convert the body’s visible surfaces into legible signs of invisible psychic interiority. To facilitate the reading of somatic surfaces, these discourses deployed photographic imaging technologies capable of rendering the surface of the body transparent. I argue that the period’s foremost theater artists, notably Andre Antoine and Konstantin Stanislavsky, applied “photographic” diagnostics to their rehearsal processes and acting systems. These figures developed hermeneutic strategies that enabled actors, during rehearsals, to extrapolate…

    Fotografia e teatralità: atti della giornata di studi San Miniato 21 ottobre 2006

    Agus, Massimo; Chiarelli, Cosimo, Fotografia e teatralità: atti della giornata di studi San Miniato 21 ottobre 2006, Titivillus, Pisa 2007 Abstract Photography and theatre represent two distinct yet closely neighboring worlds. They live in a perennial state of contradiction: the theatre, which is consumed in its making and is renewed with each performance, in photography seems to deny its profound transitory nature; when photography appears in the space of the theatre, it betrays its vocation to reality, and becomes contaminated with fiction. Yet, beyond this apparent irreconcilability, or perhaps thanks to it, thetre and photography have, throughout history, formed a dense, problematic but extremely rich in stimuli and applications relationship…
