"In recent years there has been an increase in academic publications discussing scenography. Scenography is the study and practice of performance design and explores elements of performance like scenery, lighting, sound and costume design. Scenography and Art History reimagines scenography as a new strand of critical thought in art history and provides new ways of thinking about it that are not just related to theatre. The chapters in this book examine how scenography can be applied to modern visual objects, actions and events such as pop concerts, the Olympics opening ceremonies, feminist performance art and fashion shows and how stage designers such as Es Devlin (who designed the famous tongue from which Miley Cyrus appeared on her last world tour) have become famous in their own right. They also relate scenography to wider social issues such as globalisation and the increasingly digitalised world. The book's international examples, from countries as varied as England, America, Norway, Sweden and Germany show how this concept is globally applicable and can offer new approaches to emerging and more traditional objects of study, offering a fresh new expansion of critical art history"--
