GROTOWSKI AND KANTOR

Monday, May 4, 2009, 7:00 PM

NYU Tisch School of the Arts
Performance Studies Studio
721 Broadway, New York, NY

A conversation about Jerzy Grotowski and Tadeusz Kantor moderated by CUNY Graduate Center Professor Daniel Gerould. Two internationally known scholars, Zbigniew Osinski, Professor of Polish Studies at Warsaw University and, from 1990 to 2004, the founder and first Director of The Centre for Study of Jerzy Grotowski's Work and of the Cultural and Theatrical Research in Wroclaw (now The Grotowski Institute), and Michal Kobialka, Professor of Theatre Arts and Dance at the University of Minnesota, whose most recent book on Kantor, Further on, Nothing: Tadeusz Kantor's Theatre, will be published in 2009, will assess the distinctive achievements of these two revolutionary artists from Poland and will endeavor to dispel some of the myths surrounding their work in order to reveal clearly the legacy of each for the future of theatre.


A part of TRACING GROTOWSKI'S PATH: YEAR OF GROTOWSKI IN NEW YORK, curated by Professor Richard Schechner and presented by the Polish Cultural Institute and the Performance Studies Department, Tisch School of the Arts, NYU.
