Content:
"An exploration of the art of stage design through in-depth interviews with the world's designers. Each chapter focuses on a particular designer and contains images of their most famous productions alongside text explaining the entire creative process from initial ideas and sources of inspiration to the final design. The whole range of performing arts is covered, including theatre, opera and ballet."
Content:
"The art of scenography for acting, opera and ballet is the focal point of this book. Tony Davies questioned 15 internationally-renowned Stage Designers - artists, architects and 3D Designers - about their concepts and methods. In detailed interviews they talk about their work: from the basic design to the performance. Sketches, plans and large format pictures allow a look into the fascinating pictorial world of Ralph Koltai (UK/Hungary), Richard Hudson (UK), David Hockney (USA), Ming Cho Lee (China), Adrianne Lobel (USA), Gunther Schneider-Siemssen (D), amongst many others. Stage Design is a source of information as well as inspiration: for all those that enjoy the world of theatre or are theatre professionals."
