Bettina Vernon-Warren & Charles Warren 
Gertrud Bodenwieser and Vienna’s Contribution to Ausdruckstanz [EPUB ebook] 

Born in Vienna in 1890, Gertrud Bodenwieser became a leading exponent of Ausdruckstanz (Expressionist Dance) during the 1920s and 1930s, developing a definitive personal style and a philosophy of dance that distinguished her from all her contemporaries. In 1938 she emigrated to Australia to start her career afresh with the remaining nucleus of her company from Nazi-occupied Austria. In this collection of writings (initially compiled by Bettina Vernon and posthumously completed by her husband Charles Warren) each contributor highlights Bodenwieser’s achievements from a different perspective, with reminiscences from her pupils and company members, together with scholarly studies.
