- Book Synopsis
- This publication concentrates on Five Sisters, a performance Guy de Cointet developed together with Light and Space artist Eric Orr in 1982. In Five Sisters, the affective well-being of five women is explored as they have changing, restless encounters in their parental home, discussing issues around wardrobe, suntans, health, exotic holidays, work, and painting. The play holds an exceptional place in De Cointet's oeuvre, as it presents a shift in his attention to the emotional quality of objects towards light and colour. This book is the outcome of an extensive research project around the restaging of this performance with If I Can't Dance, reflecting the research questions that emerged around the meaning, sources, and context of the original performance and its restaging. Contributors: Marie de Brugerolle, Guy de Cointet, Elizabeth Orr, Snejanka Mihaylova; with an annotated interview by Vivian Ziherl with performers Violeta Sanchez, Einat Tuchman, Adva Zakai, Veridiana Zurita.
