Sha Sha is amazing to me. After I saw her performance in an art history class I was entranced. I grew up in dance and ballet and it is still a huge part of my life but her movements are mezmerizing. JJ when you said you had seen one of her performances that blew me away and I hope to see her someday. Thanks for sharing my thoughts about her sculptures, costumes, performance and attitudes. I have included a link to the UTube on The Glass Jungle. Enjoy!
I meant to share this earlier-
ReplyDeleteIt seemed like you couldn't find as much info as you wanted for your presentation on Sha Sha... Since I have a background as an archivist and taxonomist I learned how to research all kinds of topics including fine art. So... I want to share a simple way to search on google and get more results.
By putting your search in quotations it limits the results:
"sha sha higby"
And, if you include more info, use this parameter, add a plus signi.e.
"sha sha higby" +butoh

Or
"sha sha higby" +sculpture

JJ thanks so much. I ran off a copy for future reference. It's always a big help to know more ways to search and find stuff. Thanks!
