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.]

Download or read book Dance and the Corporeal Uncanny written by Philipa Rothfield and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-06-07 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dance and the Corporeal Uncanny takes the philosophy of the body into the field of dance, through the lens of subjectivity and via its critique. It draws on dance and performance as its dedicated field of practice to articulate a philosophy of agency and movement. It is organized around two conceptual paradigms - one phenomenological (via Merleau-Ponty), the other an interpretation of Nietzschean philosophy, mediated through the work of Deleuze. The book draws on dance studies, cultural critique, ethnography and postcolonial theory, seeking an interdisciplinary audience in philosophy, dance and cultural studies.

Book excerpt: East Meets West in Dance chronicles this development in the words of many of its best known and most active exponents. This collection of articles provides a theoretical discussion of the promises and pitfalls inherent in transplanting art forms from one culture to another; it offers practical guidance for those who might want to participate in this enterprise and explains the general history of the dance exchange to date. It also identifies the differences that are unique to specific cultures, such as the development of theatrical forms, arts education, and the status of artists. This is a first examination of a phenomenon that has already touched most people in the arts community worldwide, and that none can afford to ignore. A lively dialogue has evolved over the last few decades between dance professionals -- performers, teachers and administrators -- in the United States and Europe and their counterparts in Asia and the Pacific rim.
Download or read book Women s Dance Traditions of Uzbekistan written by Laurel Victoria Gray and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2024-03-21 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive work in English on the three major regional styles of Uzbek women's dance – Ferghana, Khiva and Bukhara – and their broader Silk Road cultural connections, from folklore roots to contemporary stage dance. The book surveys the remarkable development from the earliest manifestations in ancient civilizations to a sequestered existence under Islam; from patronage under Soviet power to a place of pride for Uzbek nationhood. It considers the role that immigration had to play on the development of the dances; how women boldly challenged societal gender roles to perform in public; how both material culture and the natural world manifest in the dance; and it illuminates the innovations of pioneering choreographers who drew from Central Asian folk traditions, gestures and aesthetics – not Russian ballet – to first shape modern Uzbek stage dance. Written by the first American dancer invited to study in Uzbekistan, this book offers insight into the once-hidden world of Uzbek women's dance.
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.
