Introduction of Work
You will witness beautiful harmony between an excavator and a dancer. The machine raises tension along with the dancer’s body movement, and the excavator’s arms full of dynamics turn into human arms pushing and embracing. The opera overture of the excavator and the dancer imbued with a lyrical and dreamlike mood reminds us of the Romeo’s endearing lyric poem towards Juliet.
Introduction of Group
BEAU GESTE was founded in 1981 by 7 dancers from Centre National de Danse Contemporaine directed by Alwin Alwin Nikolais, an American choreographer. The group and each member of the group have been successfully developing through creative activities based on diversity and artistic competence of members in the new form of organization as an art group exchanging various aesthetic perspectives.
