Read on for the birth of an avant-garde Butoh dance, influenced by the emergence of postmodernism, the nuclear bombing of Japan, and a radical disassociation with classical forms.
An avant garde Japanese dance form with a deep connection to the nature of being. If that has piqued your curiosity, read on for all you need to know about Butoh.
I finally got my shit together to re-work a draft I started way back in Spring of 2016 on the Japanese dance style known as Butoh . I took a huge pause with Butoh because I found myself at a loss. I don't know anything about the Japanese worldview, nor do I know much about post-war Japan;&nbs
Lana Del Rey may have been playing on the sound system during Doo.Ri’s Fall 2012 show but that was about the only nod to anything that could be descried as "trendy." And that's a good thing because like all of Doo.Ri's collections the focus was on the designer's masterful draping and fit rather than the season's "it" styles. Backstage at her Fall 2012 show, Chung offered a helpful analogy. “Doo.Ri is like Butoh,” the designer said, referring to the avant-garde Japanese modern dance style. “It’s based on these really slow movements. There is just such a poetic way that these dancers gesture, and I aim to do the same thing with fabric.”
"I called this piece IKIRU because all those dancers or artists I met or knew - like Pina Bausch or Merce Cunningham or Michael Jackson - are gone, but I am still alive and I can still dance. They give me the power to dance. Onstage, when I am dancing alone, all these artists are with me." Tadashi Endo.
“People who feel different feel at home in Butoh,” said the founder of an annual performance series, which this year will take place online.
