Douglas Rosenberg Work Nominated
for Two EMMY Awards

By Doreen Holmgren

Dances for Television, directed by Douglas Rosenberg and co-produced by
Wisconsin Public Television, has been nominated for two EMMY Awards
including Outstanding Achievement for Entertainment Programs.

The half-hour program of dances made for camera premiered on WHA
Television in April, 2003, and includes four works: Real Boy by
former Bill T. Jones dancer Sean Curran, Hope by New York theater
artists Amy Sue Rosen and Derek Bernstein, and Residues and Odyssey
by choreographer Li Chiao-Ping. This year's EMMY winners will be
announced in December.

Rosenberg, an award-winning video artist, teaches in the Dance and Interarts & Technology program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. On November 7, as featured speaker for the Dance Program's Friday Forum, Rosenberg will give a talk entitled "Dancing for the Camera" at 3:30pm in Lathrop Hall, 1050 University Avenue. The event is free and open to the public.

Rosenberg's video dance work has been screened nationally and internationally but seen most recently at the Brooklyn Museum of Art, the National Museum of Dance, New York and at the Constellation Change Dance Film Festival at the National Film Theater in London. In March he will be a featured speaker at the Centre Pompidou in Paris as part of a philosophy seminar presented by the Centre National de la Dance. In 2002, Rosenberg received the 2002 Phelan Art Award in Video. Other recent honors include fellowships from the Project on Death in America, funded by the Soros Foundation, the Wisconsin Arts Board (Fellowship in Performance), Isadora Duncan Dance Award (IZZIE), and the Bay Area Dance Coalition for his work on Singing Myself a Lullaby.
