The Current Location of Dance─France’s Challenges and Transformations
In order to promote artistic and cultural activities in Tokyo, production of the Murobushi Kō Exhibition (to be held in Vienna this summer) was shared with the public through expert-led workshops, lectures, and practical instruction such as Kei Osawa’s lecture “Recording Dance-From Archive to Exhibition,” Discussion between Emmanuel Huynh and Tatsuro Ishii, “Cultural Location of Dance – France’s Challenges and Transformations,” Emmanuel Huynh’s workshop “Faux Pas,” Susumu Kihara’s exhibition workshop “After the misstep-Clumsily Creating the Ko Murobushi Exhibition,” and Hidehiko Narita’s photography workshop “Photography as a Record.” Additionally various other activities related to the exhibition such as dialogues on “Anti-Dance,” presentations based on the production an exhibition catalog “Seen from Catalogue,” lecture based on video “Through the Archive Footage” were shared with participants. Through sharing the process of production with others in this way, the organizers were also able to gain much insight into curation and exhibit display.
