The Artscross/Danscross project began with an international collaboration between Beijing Dance Academy(BDA)and Middlesex university’s ResCen Research centre(UK)in 2009. In 2011,the project expanded to include Taipei National University of the Arts(TNUA),becoming a model for international collaboration and exchange in dance.Bringing together leading national and international choreographers,senior academic researchers and outstanding dancers in a creative partnership,the project has begun to develop a ‘body” of shared knowledge.This has involved choreographers’ creative efforts,the in-depth perspectives of academic researchers,and dancers’ creative interpretations and performances,but it has also developed a space of freedom in which to explore cultural collisions and interllectual exchanges in unbounded ways.
Danscross in Beijing in 2009 and Artscross in Taiwan in 2011 had the themes “Dancing in a shaking world”,and “uncertain...waiting...”,respectively. In 2012,the project returns to Beijing once again,with “Light and Water”as the theme.The two distinct mediums in the theme this time,offer an opportunity to create a completely different ‘cultural feeling’,with new meanings and images.Choreographers from Beijing,Taipei,and Europe will each produce a dance work responding to the theme from their different perspectives and individual styles,resulting in a series of brand new stage performances.Our focus in the research project howecer,is on the working environment and practices of the artists.We examine the particular to see the panoramic,and the resulting performances,conference debates and writings,contribute to the ways we understand each other across national and other borders,and to the creation of a unique comparative study.
