About the Ryukyu Dance:
\n<\/strong>Geographically and historically, the island of Okinawa (former Ryukyu) has been an Asian crossroads, where the cultures of China, Japan, Korea, and Indonesia have left visible marks. The Ryukyu population always prioritized peaceful cultural exchange and trade, and this helped the process of a fertile inclusion of intercultural elements. Ryukyu Buyo, one of Okinawa’s traditional performing arts, is said to have developed between the 14th and the 15th C. during the Ryukyu Kingdom. It was performed at welcoming banquets to greet the Chinese emissaries with a dance celebration. Maintaining its traditional formal traits, the dance evolved through the centuries, thanks to the new interpretations, given by great performers over time. Normally, the classical Ryukyu dance is accompanied by instruments like the sanshin (a three-string-instrument), the koto (a Japanese plucked half-tube zither instrument), the flute, the taiko (drums) and the kokyu(Chinese fiddle). The techniques used to produce the original Bingata costumes for the dance are thought to have originated in Southeast Asia (possibly Java, or perhaps China or India), and arrived in the Ryukyu Kingdom through trade during the 14th century.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text]

About Butoh:
\n<\/strong>\u201cOut of the heat of the Japanese underground art movements in the 1950s -1970s, two extraordinary dancers emerged: Kazuo Ohno<\/strong> and Tatsumi Hijikata<\/strong>. They absorbed Western avant-garde art movements, literature and philosophy, as well as Eastern ancient traditions, and they have pushed the limit of performing art to reveal the deep hidden reality of body and mind. The method of Hijikata that enables performers to embody any sensations, sounds, or images to unlock subtle layers of the body on the stage is a powerful universal gift for the contemporary performers. Kazuo Ohno’s dance which revealed such a rich nature within each of us, that is far beyond personal sentiment, keeps inspiring us. Motoya Kondo keeps investigating the universal treasures from the works of these two dancers and, at the same time, he researches and experiments to evolve it further, aiming at an art that can reveal the profound reality of existence.\u201d (Original text by Motoya Kondo)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text]
