Publisher Description In addition to his work as visual artist, publisher, poet, and composer, Dick Higgins (1938–98) was also a genuine man of the theater. A founder of Fluxus, he was a major figure in artistic communities in downtown New York City, across Europe, and in Japan. Yet as important as Higginss work has been to historians of the American avant-garde, relatively little attention has been paid to his radical theatrical vision. Alchemies of Theater brings together a broad selection of Higginss writings and theater-related work, much of it unpublished or long out of print, including plays and performance scores, drawings, and writings on theater and performance. As this book demonstrates, Higgins deconstructed the drama long before it became a project of theater; undercut the traditional roles of author and director; created what is now considered "devised" theater; pioneered the use of media in theater, writing the first electronic opera; and was a precursor in deconstruction and "postdramatic" avant-garde traditions. His Intermedia manifesto offered a sweeping view of interdisciplinarity—in effect, a new arts ecology. Author Biography Dick Higgins (1938–98) was a visual artist, publisher, poet, composer, and playwright. He founded the highly influential Something Else Press, and wrote more than three dozen books.Bonnie Marranca is editor and publisher of PAJ Publications/PAJ: A Journal of Performance and Art, and the author of four volumes of writings on the arts and several edited collections of plays, essays, and interviews. She is Professor Emerita of Eugene Lang College of Liberal Arts at The New School.
