BRIEF HISTORY OF BALLETS RUSSES AND OVERVIEW OF STAGE AND COSTUME DESIGN

Öz

Sergei Diaghilev was a Russian artist and director who lived between 1872 and 1929. From 1905 onwards, he started to promote Russian art in Paris. Especially “Ballets Russes”, the first ballet company he took to Paris in 1909, achieved great success. Among the dancers in this company were famous names such as Vaslav Nijinsky and Tamara Karsavina. Diaghilev achieved great success not only as an artist but also as a manager. His artistic background and adventurous spirit were reflected in the performances of the company. Among Diaghilev's greatest contributions were to encourage the leading painters and composers of the era to create works for the company and to discover new talents. The Ballets Russes company also attracted great attention in terms of stage design and costume design. Stage designers even determined the main lines of choreography. The works produced in this period have an important place in the art world even today. This article emphasises the foundation of Ballets Russes company, the introduction of Russian art to Europe and the importance of stage design in ballet art.
