Releasing the Archive - Performance: 'Lost & Found [Dances of Exile]' - Video of Performance & Documentation

The practice-led project <i>‘Releasing the Archive’</i>, undertaken in collaboration with dance-scholar Carol Brown (NZ/AUS),<b> </b>aims to re-articulate marginalised modernist exile-dance practices and histories, with reference to the work of Austrian Jewish choreographer Gertrud Bodenwieser (1890-1959) who pioneered Modern Dance in New Zealand and Australia after 1939. It embraces trends towards somatic-informed dance practices, performance-as-archive, and the revisioning of modernist dance legacies.<br><b>This item contains video documentation of the Performance 'Lost &amp; Found', which is one component of the Research Output for this project.
