- W112794964 abstract "When approaching the 1960s, histories of the United States commonly emphasize the dynamic movements of the decade such as fighting for equality, traveling through space and moving upwards in “the Great Society.” These movements captivated both the eyes and ears of Americans through a collage of television, radio, records, newspapers, magazines and journals—a multi-mediated culture that fashioned new political platforms for change. Whereas the roles of popular musicians during the 1960s have been well researched, investigations of American avant-garde music have been limited to studies of individual composers and their compositional methods, largely ignoring these musicians’ role in the germination of a collective consciousness that questioned established aesthetic paradigms and cultivated unique exchanges between multiple forms of artistic media. This study focuses on the so-called “New York School”—a diverse group comprised of, among others, John Cage, Earle Brown, Morton Feldman, Christian Wolff, and David Tudor. I reassess the cultural, social and aesthetic importance of these figures by examining their work in multimedia collaborations.I offer three case studies each organized around an avant-garde event whose premiere performance and/or subsequent renditions marked the 1960s. Chapter 2 elucidates the interplay of indeterminate and determined relations between collaborators in John Cage’s and Merce Cunningham’s Variations V by conceptualizing a “collage of authorities” that thematizes a Derridean play of differance. In Chapters 3 and 4, I detail the textual and perceptual collage that reinforces a Bergsonian notion of order in the “feedback conditions” of Earle Brown’s Calder Piece. In Chapter 5, I unravel and analyze the surfaces of Merce Cunningham’s choreography, Robert Rauschenberg’s decor and Morton Feldman’s music, which together creates a performative collage in the ballet Summerspace. I argue that, as multitudinous collages, these collaborations continued the modernist legacy of questioning conventional musical (and visual) languages while simultaneously projecting traits we now associate with postmodernism, such as theatricality and potentiality through variously constituted indeterminacies. Questioning the very grounds of mainstream communication, these dynamic events offered their own terms for linking politics and aesthetics during the 1960s." @default.
