Book Collage of Korean Dance

Download or read book Collage of Korean Dance written by Aedeok Lee Cho and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2024-07-16 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a photo book of Korean dance. This is made by the immigrants who came to the United States to inherit and spread Korean culture and to share Korean culture with the multicultural American society. All photos in this book are from the Chicago Korean Dance Company's performances, focusing on the first ten years (2009-2019), six grand performances that were held every two years. Pictures of other performances and international performances are included in CKDC history pages. It should be noted that 98 percent of all dance costumes and dance props in the performance are made and imported from Korea. Korean dance is divided into three categories: court dance and folk dances that were passed down for a long time, folk dances that were created with the base of Korean dance movements, and original choreography dances that portray modern issues along with modern costumes. Each of the dances in the book is specified into these three categories, and it is listed in the programs. It should also be noted that Muyong and Chum are used interchangeably in Korean language, and both of these words mean "dance" in English. This book is made to inform the viewers about Korean dance, costumes, accessories, and props and to record the cultural activities of CKDC and Korean immigrants.

Book Relations between Contemporary Dance and Korean New Traditional Dance

Download or read book Relations between Contemporary Dance and Korean New Traditional Dance written by Sungjae Jun and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2015-07-08 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2015 in the subject Theater Studies, Dance, , language: English, abstract: Have you ever asked yourself, which relations there are between Korean New Traditional Dance and Contemporary Dance? Traveling all around the world, people are watching me with big eyes as soon as I speak about my dance career. Many of them, even artists, ask me, which are the relations between Contemporary Dance and Korean New Traditional Dance. There is always a question mark on the face of people, when I try to explain that the Korean Dance, for example Korean Ballet or Korean Modern Dance, are related to Contemporary Dance. It is difficult for them to understand the subject at first. For many people, regard to the content of the Contemporary Dance is either an abstract subject or only an American art of Dance. With this small contribution I want to show the importance of Korean Dance generally and its relations to worldwide Dance. This book should even show the similarities between Korean New Traditional Dance and Contemporary Dance today. It is supposed to give answers to all my friends and colleges, who ask themselves: what are the differences and similarities of these dances? [The author is no native speaker.]

Book Salpuri Chum  A Korean Dance for Expelling Evil Spirits

Download or read book Salpuri Chum A Korean Dance for Expelling Evil Spirits written by Eun-Joo Lee and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a study of Salpuri-Chum, a traditional Korean dance for expelling evil spirits. The authors explore the origins and practice of Salpuri-Chum. The ancient Korean people viewed their misfortunes as coming from evil spirits; therefore, they wanted to expel the evil spirits to recover their happiness. The music for Salpuri-Chum is called Sinawi rhythm. It has no sheet music and lacks the concept of metronomic technique. In this rhythm, the dancer becomes a conductor. Salpuri-Chum is an artistic performance that resolves the people’s sorrow. In many cases, it is a form of sublimation. It is also an effort to transform the pain of reality into beauty, based on the Korean people’s characteristic merriment. It presents itself, then, as a form of immanence. Moreover, Salpuri-Chum is unique in its use of a piece of white fabric. The fabric, as a symbol of the Korean people’s ego ideal, signifies Salpuri-Chum’s focus as a dance for resolving their misfortunes.

Download or read book Mouths on Fire with Songs written by Caroline De Wagter and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2013 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, the first cross-cultural study of post-1970s anglophone Canadian and American multi-ethnic drama, invites assessment of the thematic and aesthetic contributions of this theater in today’s globalized culture. A growing number of playwrights of African, South and East Asian, and First Nations heritage have engaged with manifold socio-political and aesthetic issues in experimental works combining formal features of more classical European dramatic traditions with such elements of ethnic culture as ancestral music and dance, to interrogate the very concepts of theatricality and canonicity. Their “mouths on fire” (August Wilson), these playwrights contest stereotyped notions of authenticity. In¬spired by songs of anger, passion, experience, survival, and regeneration, the plays analyzed bespeak a burning desire to break the silence, to heal and empower. Foregrounding questions of hybridity, diaspora, cultural memory, and nation, this comparative study includes discussion of some twenty-five case studies of plays by such authors as M.J. Kang, August Wilson, Suzan–Lori Parks, Djanet Sears, Chay Yew, Padma Viswanathan, Rana Bose, Diane Glancy, and Drew Hayden Taylor. Through its cross-cultural and cross-national prism, “Mouths on Fire with Songs” shows that multi-ethnic drama is one of the most diverse and dynamic sites of cultural production in North America today.
