Bodies and Buildings: March 2010

http://bodiesandbuildings.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html

Thursday, 25 March 2010. Open Niche: performance at Daghdha Space. Arriving in the beautiful Daghdha. Space on Monday I was daunted by the amount and variety of participants that I needed to bring together to make the piece work. Six dancers from the MA programme in UL. With whom I'd already made a short piece, Lucy Suggate who contributed the demented but fiercely precise energy of her Latin Beach, Ed Schouten. Photographs by Markus Voetter. Thursday, March 25, 2010. Wednesday, 24 March 2010. It was a g...

Bodies and Buildings: April 2010

http://bodiesandbuildings.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html

Thursday, 29 April 2010. After the visa and volcano induced panic that preceded my arrival to Shanghai, it was reassuring to realise that I don't feel as anxious about arriving in China as I have in the past. I know what to expect though this may be a dangerous misconception in a culture where so much is still impenetrably incomprehensible to me. At least I'm getting a sense of how much I don't know. That followed the soft opening of the EXPO site and some of the other pavilions. I, however, was disappoi...

Bodies and Buildings: May 2010

http://bodiesandbuildings.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html

Friday, 28 May 2010. Dialogue in Shanghai: Downstream Garage. Is an important venue for what we would call fringe performance in Shanghai. It is a place where young artists can meet, rehearse and perform, all free of charge since no tickets can be sold as the venue has no performance licence. Again they stayed for a long discussion after the show and we involved them in improvisations based on elements of the piece. Friday, May 28, 2010. Dialogue in Shanghai: Ke Arts Center. Is a well established space, ...

Bodies and Buildings: September 2009

http://bodiesandbuildings.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html

Saturday, 26 September 2009. I visited Liverpool this week to find out whether my work could have a place there. I'd been invited to participate in a roundtable discussion at FACT. But the only thing I really know is how to work from myself out towards others, to work on what I think is right and offer it to others to engage with. I'm not a proselytizer and that may be a short-coming. So after all the talking, I danced. Saturday, September 26, 2009. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Subscribe in a reader.

Bodies and Buildings: October 2009

http://bodiesandbuildings.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html

Saturday, 31 October 2009. In the world in which we lived. What distinguished Cunningham from all other great choreographers was the degree of his inclusiveness. He invented dance movements that were modern and new, but even more revolutionary was the way he placed them in the world in which we lived. Mark Swed in the New York Times. On the Merce Cunningham memorial 'Events' at the Park Avenue Armory in New York last Wednesday. Saturday, October 31, 2009. Friday, 30 October 2009. Friday, October 30, 2009.

Bodies and Buildings: Kings Cross Solos

http://bodiesandbuildings.blogspot.com/2010/07/kings-cross-solos.html

Wednesday, 14 July 2010. I’ve just finished a project with five second year BA students at London Contemporary Dance School. I’ve been encouraging/facilitating/mentoring them to think about context when they are developing their choreography. In particular, I’ve focused their attention on Kings Cross, where the school is based, and which is the biggest city centre regeneration project in Europe at the moment. Mostly they had no idea of how the area is being transformed. One of the things that I clarified...

Bodies and Buildings: May 2009

http://bodiesandbuildings.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html

Saturday, 30 May 2009. An almost Osage gallery. On the airport side road, near Chaochangdi, there's a gallery complex with this unfinished gallery space. I was told that the Osage chain of galleries rented it for two years with the intention of opening a new branch there but the downturn stopped that. A little shimmying under a gate and the distraction of a small car crash on the adjoining road helped me get in. Saturday, May 30, 2009. According to a recent article. Saturday, May 30, 2009. Teaching the d...
