On the Edge of Utopia: Performance and Ritual at Burning Man

Mehr zum Buch

Set in Nevada's Black Rock Desert, the Burning Man Festival attracts 35,000 attendees each year who come together to create Black Rock City, centered around a towering wooden effigy. Originally conceived as a personal healing ritual by Larry Harvey in 1986, the festival has transformed into a vibrant cultural movement. It blends elements of ceremony, religion, visual art, and performance, fostering a unique community experience that celebrates creativity and self-expression on a grand scale.
