DESCRIPTION:The Contested Use of Siva as Icon and Subject: Using the forma
 t of a lecture/demonstration\, we offer a glimpse into the dancing forms o
 f Śiva\, especially Śiva Naṭarāja\, whose position in Hindu mythology
  and Western understandings gained popularity through the writings of Anan
 da Coomaraswamy (1918) and Heinrich Zimmer (1946) in the early 20th centur
 y. The allure and power of the famous Naṭarāja icon\, deeply implicated
  and foregrounded as the Lord of Dance in the nationalist revival of India
 n dance in this period\, remains until this day. \nWe illustrate how Śiva
  began to take centre stage in the dance form of Bhāratanāṭyam both in
  choreographies and in his presence onstage in sculptural form\, providing
  a virile\, hypermasculine ideal especially for male dancers. We show exam
 ples from Indian dancer Ram Gopal (1912-2003) as well as Rukmini Devi Arun
 dale’s (1904-1986) new revivalist choreography on Śiva\, titled Natanam
  Adinar (Tamiḻ: naṭaṉaṁ āṭiṉār).
