Description

Who was Tilly Losch? Dancer, artist, choreographer, lover, wife, muse ... Tilly seems a blur, glimpsed at the corner of the eye, dancing in and out of focus.This book, and the film it grew out of, is a collaboration between filmmaker Jane Glennie and writer/performer Rosie Garland. They ask questions about biographies of women who fall into the footnotes, lost from history as so many womens stories are, and discover hope in reclaiming herstories.Tilly Losch was an Austrian dancer who lived and worked with prominent and cuttingedge choreographers and artists in the UK and the US, from the West End to Hollywood. She was also a choreographer in her own right, and later turned to painting.Through images and poetry Glennie and Garland explore the elusive and fragmentary nature of Tillys life, evokingthe spirit of the 1920s40s when she was at the peak ofher fame.Because Goddess is never enough is about selfworth andthe credibility of creative women Losch was someone who was at times exploited yet determined to maintain a pathof her own making despite the obstacles that were very present in her era.Glennie and Garland consider the complexity of female identity both then and now. Highlighting how far women have come in 90 years, and yet how far they still have togo to get recognition and true independence.
