17h 15min, may 29, 1913 y - Juicy Events

Description:

it was 100 years ago that the most famous scandal in the history of the arts took place, at a swanky new theatre in Paris.What drew them on the night of May 29 1913 was the whiff of something potentially outrageous: a brand-new ballet from the Ballets Russes, which had entranced and shocked Paris ever since their first appearance there in 1909. What gave the event an extra frisson was that this Rite of Spring was the product of the most savage of all these so-called “Northern savages”.
