Information
Venuše ve Švehlovce Venuše ve Švehlovce in collaboration with Studio ALTA announces a series of masterclasses and performances by three international artists whose work is informed by the practice of butoh. In this series of encounters, you’ll witness and experience different artists’ butoh practices, as they share their understanding of butoh and its role in their performance-making or choreographic practice.
This masterrclass with Michiyasu Furutani will focus on physical movements based on how to adapt to gravity. This focus on gravity will delineate the structure of internal and external movement to approach hints at unraveling the individual and collective dynamic.
Born in Osaka, Japan, Michiyasu Furutani is a choreographer, dancer, and performer whose work and expression grow from Butoh technique and practice. In the process of continual research, he has developed his vocabulary of movement to encompass in improvisation and a variety of modern and classical dance techniques forming necessity, possibility, and contingency. Furutani has collaborated frequently with theatre-directors, filmmakers, architectures, painters, and musicians aiming to broaden the communications between diverse art disciplines, and has performed widely throughout the world, always investigating new modes of expression and movement. He believes that improvisation is a crucial factor in the possibility of discovering new spaces for mutual sharing and exchanging our experiences and knowledge of corporeal sense.
