Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Antinova Remembers Eleanor Antin 1935 - United States
An excerpt from a radio interview with Eleanora Antinova reminiscing about her life as a dancer with the Diaghilev Ballets-Russes. She was recorded in her home in Southern California where she lives surrounded by photographs, sketches, designs for sets and costumes - "souvenirs to help keep the old life alive." Because of the resurgent interest in the history of early 20th century art, there is a strong demand for Antinova to make personal appearances around the country. This surprises her. "When I hung up my shoes so long ago, I never thought to travel again, except perhaps to funerals. More and more funerals." She laughs. "And here I am, a youngster once more." In this excerpt from the longer interview, she talks about touring with the impoverished, passionate, yet determinedly cheerful Russian dancers. Piano: Marcia Goodman
