Véronique Fabbri's 'Danse et philosophie' Argues Dance and Philosophy Share a Strategy of Disappearance

In her book 'Danse et philosophie', Véronique Fabbri proposes that dance and philosophy construct themselves through a shared strategy of disappearance. This disappearance is not an erasure but a constructive process where bodies, words, concepts, and images present the vanishing of their own labor. Fabbri critiques reductive views of dance as mere materialization of ideas, drawing on Benjamin and Deleuze. She opposes Derrida's deconstruction and Jacques Rancière's 'distribution of the sensible', advocating instead for a productive confrontation between concepts and bodies. The book is published by L'Harmattan with a preface by Barbara Formis.
