Synopsis |
See, With Mind's Eye - Contemporary Dance Appreciation Workshop is an inquiry into the nature of dance through interactive activities, video viewing and discussion. Dance appreciation is basically about two main aspects. One, personal aesthetics - What is your sensibility or taste? What are your preferences? But personal taste changes with experiences and education. Second, communal aesthetics, i.e., the artistic standards that evolved over time – What is aesthetically sound? Does a certain object have artistic value? How is the work valued according to certain artistic principles of design? Eventually, a personal meaning can be found through the process of dance appreciation. By understanding how a dance is put together, we can decode a dance piece. In each are a few basic but essential elements – music, spatial relationships, movement qualities, etc. These are the basic tools which we need to appreciate and to understand a dance. This appreciation workshop for contemporary dance is an introduction to these elements. In the 8 sessions, we will actively look into the creative process and venture into the mind of a choreographer. (Speaker & Instructor: Cheung Sau Mui Vanessa) |
