Die Bibliothek des Watermill Center – ein Ort der Inspiration

Abstract

This article describes a library program which is in development for The Watermill Center, an interdisciplinary laboratory for the arts and humanities located on Long Island, NY. It was founded by theatre and visual artist Robert Wilson as a place for young and emerging artists to work, learn, create, and grow with each other. Watermill integrates performing arts practice with resources from the humanities, research from the sciences, and inspiration from the visual arts. Watermill is unique within the global landscape of experimental theatrical performance, and regularly convenes the brightest minds from all disciplines to do, in Wilson’s words, "what no one else is doing."
