Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker is one of the most prominent choreographers in contemporary dance. Her 1982 debut with "Fase" immediately attracted the attention of the international dance scene; since then De Keersmaeker and her company, Rosas, have created an impressive series of choreographic works that have been described as 'pure writing with movement in time and space'. This book explores four of Rosas' early works: "Fase", "Rosas Danst Rosas", "Elena's Aria", and "Bartok". In addition to sketches, notes, and photographs, it features four DVDs that includes interviews with De Keersmaeker as well as danced demonstrations and extensive video clips from each of the four works.
