【2022 Taiwan Dance Platform】Body Online, Screendance / Dance Sound Exhibition
Dance Upload, Body Online, Connection Without Borders in face of COVID-19 The biennial Weiwuying Taiwan Dance Platform is taking place once again. The curator, CHOU Shu-Yi, sets the theme of Body Online, showcasing a collection of dance works to the entire world for the first time. Ten works out of submissions from over 20 countries will be selected and showcased on screen. Five music producers from Taiwan are invited to share the music they created for the dances and demonstrate their understanding of dance as a listener. A photography exhibition will take visitors on a tour of the dance scenes that were successfully performed at Weiwuying in the past two years during the pandemic.
Over the past two years in which the theater has opened and closed several times, we contemplated how the real performance of the body can be delivered in a virtual world and how a dance stage for this performance can be found in the real world. Image changes how the body is related to dance, creating unique vocabularies. Sound sets the story into which the dance walks. Photography forever captures the moment of life on stage.
"Dance," "image," and "sound," the three elements of art creation each complementing one another, are infused curatorially, unraveling the real language and dialogue of the body through a combination of exhibition designs and interpretations from an artist's perspective and point of view. Every thoughtfully designed area in the exhibition showcases immersive exhibitions based on the concept of Body Online. As visitors weave through dance films, live performances, and music creations—each intertwined with the thoughts of their creator, they reflect on the way they "connect" with the world and the meaning behind it. |
Body Online — Screendance Exhibition
Body Online — Screendance Exhibition is the fruit of Weiwuying's first call to artists around the world to submit short dance films. Since submissions first started being accepted in July, Weiwuying received 256 from 46 countries/regions across five continents. In total 10 shortlisted works, 1 special mention and 8 Taiwanese films will be presented. The films will be shown in the Exhibition Hall from October 22 (Sat.) to November 20 (Sun.) as a means of discovering how the body converses with the stage and thinking about the long-term direction of dance's future evolution.
