metadata.value: The article considers how the concept of woman’s subjectivity brought into focus in feminist critics
  of the 20th century was evoked in non-classical dance of the 20th and 21st centuries. The authors’
  goal is to prove that artistic experiences of modern dance, followed by contemporary dance, became
  the productive form of woman’s writing, the most fruitful “location” where woman’s subjectivity
  was manifested, from the feminist theorists’ point of view. The authors saw their principal task as
  examining the history of the interest that outstanding choreographers of the 20th century developed
  in seeking woman’s subjectivity “buried” in the body. The methodological frameworks integrated
  historical and typological, philosophical, culturological, deconstructive, and gender analyses. The
  article distinguishes several major trends, they are: the Delsarte’s American studies of expressive
  body acting of the suffragist epoch (Loïe Fuller, Isadora Duncan, Mod Allan), German expressionist
  dance, American modern dance and the Russian rhythmic and plastic dance of the first half of the
  20th century (Marie Wiegmann, Martha Graham); the European Dance Theatre movement of the
  1970s, that was the period of the second wave of feminism (Pina Bausch). It is stated that at the
  close of the 20th century and the early 21st century the brightest examples of the discussed theme are
  the artistic works deconstructing the concept of “woman’s subjectivity”. The analysis of the world
  famous performance “Co(te)lette” made by Anna van den Broek, a Dutch choreographer, presents a
  clear illustration of this observation. Then, using the example of creative works by Marie Chouinard
  (Canada), Mats Ek (Sweden), Matthew Bourne (Great Britain), the authors show how the plastic
  discourse of contemporary dance is gradually transferred from the area of feminist rhetoric to the
  field studying various gender perversions. In conclusion, as the authors stance, the example of Ivo
  Dimchev performances demonstrates that in contemporary dance the theme of woman’s subjectivity
  blurs and the attention focuses on the man with “strange’ (queer) gender identity, with floating
  unstable uncertain feeling of belonging to being. Refs 19.
