The study of the musculoskeletal system, through so-called experiential anatomy, is an essential addition to dance practices and for those working with movement. In particular, the focus on these systems provides an opportunity to explore space and relationship.
The proposed “studies on movement” practice combines a cognitive and conceptual understanding of anatomy and movement with direct experience in doing and feeling. Movement and listening exercises will invite exploration of the relationship between function and structure. The whole process is aimed at identifying different possibilities for accessing one’s creative resources.
A dancer and choreographer, Elena Giannotti was Rosemary Butcher’s main performer and collaborator for more than 10 years.
She has been researching choreography and movement since 2002 and her work was supported by Arts Council Ireland for 8 years, until she returned to Italy. Her work was presented in Ireland, England, Mexico, Italy, USA, Slovakia, Germany, Czech Republic and Japan.
She taught at various European universities and centres for dance and choreography including Laban London, TanzQuartier Vienna, Free University Berlin, University of Limerick Ireland, University of the Arts Berlin, and Centre National de la Danse Angers.
The workshop is designed for dancers at an intermediate/advanced level. A CV is required for knowledge.
