"I hope that the film will be seen by artists around the world because it is not only an educational tool that proposes an alternative way of creating dance material, but it also manages to encompass the trajectory of the postmodern dance world of the past forty years." Anne Bogart (Columbia University and Artistic Director of SITI Company)
The Gill Clarke Resources
Fund was set up with the advance on the sales of Turn Your F^*king Head, a DVD
resource about Deborah Hay’s Solo Performance Commissioning Project. It is
named for Gill Clarke, one of the key artists who developed Independent Dance into
the organization it is today in London, England. The fund is supported in part
through the royalties from the sales of this DVD. The Gill Clarke Resource Fund provides dance artists with
limited means to acquire books, journals, DVDs, or music for their professional
development and research.
The DVD includes the documentary, and is accompanied by a booklet with two specially commissioned essays by Susan Foster, Bojana Bauer and Myrto Katsiki, and a personal letter from Deborah Hay to Gill Clarke. It reveals the discernment, humor, inquiry, and humility of one of the most respected and original dance artists of our time.
The film is currently included in the Routledge Performance Archive. For further information and to purchase 'Turn Your F^*king Head’ please click on the following link: http://www.routledge.com/books/details/9781138783768/
