Margit Koppendorfer : Costume Designs, Hardback Book

Margit Koppendorfer : Costume Designs Hardback

Edited by Iris Maria vom Hof

Hardback

Description

During her 40-year career, Margit Koppendorfer has designed costumes for the greats of theatre history: characters from Shakespeare, Brecht, and Handke, directed by Berghaus, Peymann, and Tabori, performed in Vienna, Zurich, and Berlin.

Margit Koppendorfer: Costume Designs presents Koppendorfer's often life-sized mixed-media design sketches on transparent paper and reveals through these unique illustrations how the costume designer accords identity to the characters.

By alienating the real in a visionary way, a latent truth emerges.

While author Elfriede Jelinek and actress Maria Happel emphasise in their texts the masterful embodiment of the costumes, and of their characters, Margit Koppendorfer herself says of her work, "I dance into the set with my characters."Text in English and German.
