Balkan Dance Platform 2009 Artistic direction: Madalina Dan Performers: Carmen Cotofana, Paul Dunca, Florin Flueras, Madalina Dan Costumes: Andrada Chiriac and Mara Grigoriu Produced by: U.N.A.T.C i/and C.N.D.B Participation at BDP 2009 - supported by National Dance Centre Bucharest Dedublarea is my graduation piece. I've tried to question the utility, accessibility and intelligibly of dance, to approach its problematics with irony and detachment. This distance has allowed me to talk about choreographic issues from the inside without being sucked into them. I've placed myself lucidly in the middle of quotation, clich?s, reference, stereotypes. I've transformed poor examples of choreographic conventions and rules in good and usable material, and this process has become a source of inspiration. What came out of it was avoiding issues, dissimulation, hiding the true identity. dance-tech.net interviews are produced by marlon barrios solano Interviews at the Balkan Dance Platform were made possible by a grant from Dance Theater Workshop, with major support from the Trust for Mutual Understanding, New York USA The host of Balkan Dance Platform 2009 was Per.Art www.perart.org
