Butoh Research Project 2013

12 October 2013 - 20 November 2013

Florencia Guerberof is carrying out an ongoing investigation on butoh movement.Butoh Research
She invites dancers, actors, visual artists, musicians and anyone interested in butoh to join these research sessions. The investigation focuses on a deep exploration of the work of Kazuo Ohno and Tatsumi Hijikata towards the creation of new work based on a personal interpretation, assimilation and integration of some of the movement’s ideas into the participants own work.

This project aims at opening new possibilities in the creation process. The sessions encourage a creative assimilation of the ideas triggered by butoh. The main goal is to discover a specific area of interest relevant to the dancer,actor and artist’s own practice to develop a personal physical language.
