"Lavinia Schulz and Walter Holdt were a wife and husband partnership
briefly famous in Germany during the early 1920s for their wild,
expressionist dance performances consisting of “creeping, stamping,
squatting, crouching, kneeling, arching, striding, lunging, leaping in
mostly diagonal-spiraling patterns” across the stage. Shulz believed
“art should be…an expression of struggle” and used dance to express “the
violent struggle of a female body to achieve central, dominant control
of the performance space and its emptiness.”"
Via Muse, who wrote: "Amazing costumes! Be sure to follow the link to
the museum that houses them!"
