What is postmodern dance?
Postmodern dance, as well as other forms of postmodern art, attempts to re -introduce everyday culture into a perceived emptiness created movement of modern art. The modern dance movement tried to have a theater dance for the basic technique. Some experts define postmodern dance as a distinct dance movement that began Judson Dance Theater and lasted only up to 70 years. Many theater dance pieces created after the 1970s can be considered a postmodern wider definition.
The form of modern dance art was a pioneer of Isador Duncan and matured under the influence of Ruth St. Denis, Martha Graham and Merce Cunningham to name at least some. Modern dance, a view in the overall light of modern art theory, tried to cleanse the artistic expression by focusing on technology and reducing the influence of society and culture. Modern dance theory is still ubiquitous in the dance world.
If it is displayed in addition to other postmodern artistic forms, including visual hikeDance is art and literature more than an art movement limited to 60 and 70 years. Postmodern dance relies on references to mass culture and everyday experience of creating art and many dance pieces falls into this category. Modern dance theory can be considered "exclusive", while the theory of postmodern dance is "inclusive".
Many are attributed to the Judon Dance Theater Theater with developing postmodern dance. In 1962, a group of dancers rebelled against modern dance theory by performing various dance experiments in the old Judson church. They were named at Judson Dance Theater and theorized that everyday movement could be a form of dance. They also believed that anyone could be a dancer if they had a desire and no formal training was required. The Judson Dance Theater broke up in 1964, but the second group headed by other experimental dancers, especially Twyla Tharp, was madeAbout the 1970s.
Twyla Tharp, a renowned choreographer, eventually moved to become a more traditional dancer, but its involvement in popular culture still places a large part of its work directly in the wider definition of postmodernism. She used popular music with her choreography and created dances for movies like hair and ragtime . Her work included ideas mined from mass culture, modern society and other art forms.
Some dancers are still defined as postmodern. For example, in 2011, Ananya Chatterjea, a self -proclaimed postmodern choreographer, a piece together with other dancers at the University of Minnesota. Dancers who borrowed for heritage began, dancers, used everyday random body movements in their work. The reaction to Chatterjea's choreography included anger, shock and curiosity. Some students who were not dancers also wanted to participate in dance.
