Puppets: Theatre, Film, Politics

The book accompanying the exhibition of the same title is a pioneering publication with ten essays on puppet theater aesthetics, political entanglements, connections with photography, the puppet's potential, adult puppet theater, pedagogical aspects, animated puppet film history, and music. Its interdisciplinary approach includes art historians, cultural studies scholars, anthropologists, and practitioners. It is richly illustrated with archival performance and film photographs, scenography projects, and puppet designs.
