Overview

Inspired by theatrical writings of Antonin Artaud, Rosenthal’s performance art blends music, words, images and dance into ferociously moving works—a theater of cruelty tempered by love. Featuring critical commentary, interviews and photographs of Rosenthal’s performances and collecting for the first time a selection of her writings (including the script of Rachel’s Brain), this book captures the voice of a unique American artist.

Synopsis
