From its inception in San Francisco in 1976, American Butoh aligned with avant-garde performance art in alternative venues such as galleries and experimental theaters. La MaMa in New York and the Festival Internacional Cervantino in Guanajuato both served to legitimize the form as esteemed experimental performance. A crystallizing moment in each of the three locations--San Francisco, New York, and Mexico City--has been a grand-scale festival featuring prominent Japanese and numerous other international artists, as well as fostering local communities. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book stitches together the flow of people and ideas, highlights the connections in the Butoh diaspora, and incorporates interviewee perspectives regarding future directions for the genre in the Americas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTanya Calamoneri\u003c\/strong\u003e is a dancer, choreographer, and Assistant Professor of Dance at Texas Tech University.
