Message from the International Dance Day April 29, 2015
International Dance Day 2015
Carmen Amaya, Valeska Gert, Suzushi Hanayagi, Michael Jackson ... unclassifiable dance. I could not decipher their styles of dance ... I see as generating turbines and this makes me think about the importance of choreography on that same energy dancing. Surely what matters is not the choreography, but precisely that energy, which causes the whirlwind.
I envisage a tesla coil drawing them all and making a healing beam and causing a metamorphosis in the body: Pina Bausch as mantis, Raimund Hoghe become dung beetle, Vicente Escudero stick insect and even Bruce Lee centipede.
I danced my first duet with my mother 7 months pregnant. It may seem an exaggeration. Although usually I dance alone, I imagine that accompany ghosts that make me leave my role as "dancer of solitudes". Would not say Didi-Huberman: of soleares.
As a child, I did not like dancing, but it was something that came to me naturally and easily. Almost instinctively. Over time I realized that dancing healed, I was indeed almost medicinal, helped me to not be so introverted and open up to others. I have seen the image of a sick child Ebola healing through dance. It is a superstition, but would that be possible?
After the dance, eventually becomes an obsession that consumes my time and that makes dancing even when I stand still, motionless, turning away and the reality of things. Not sure if that is good, bad or necessary but ... it is. My daughter Milena, when I'm still on the couch, minding my own, with my own buzz, tell me: Daddy, no dancing.
And I see people moving to walk the streets, calling for a taxi, moving with different shapes, styles and deformidades.¡Todos are dancing! I do not know but all are dancing! I would shout: there are people who still do not know !, we are all dancing! , Those who do not dance no luck, are dead, or feel or suffer !.
I like the word fusion. Not as the word of marketing, confusion to sell a certain style, a brand. Best fission atomic mixture: a cocktail shaker with feet planted on the ground of Juan Belmonte, air arms of Isadora Duncan and bending through belly Jeff Cohen in Los Goonies.Y with all these ingredients make a pleasant and intense drink which is rich or bitter or go to your head. Our tradition is also the mix, we come from a cocktail and orthodox want to hide their secret formula. But no, races and religions and political persuasions, all mixed! , Everyone can dance together !. Maybe not caught, but alongside each other.
There is an old Chinese proverb which says: the flapping wings of a butterfly can be felt across the world. When a fly takes off in Japan, a typhoon shakes Caribbean waters. Pedro G Romero, after a crushing dance sevillanas says, the same day the bomb fell on Hiroshima, Nijinsky repeated his big break in a forest of Austria. And I keep imagining: Savion Glover whiplash spins Mikhail Baryshnikov. At that time, Kazuo Ono stands still and causes a certain electricity in María Muñoz who thinks Vonrad Veidt and forces cause an earthquake Akram Khan in his dressing room: their bells move and soil is stained with drops tired of his sweat.
I would like to dedicate this International Dance Day and these words a person anyone in the world is dancing at this very moment. But let a joke and a wish: dancers, musicians, producers, critics, programmers, let's finale, we dance all, as did Béjart, let's dance in style, let's dance Ravel's Bolero, bailémoslo together.
Israel Galván (España, 1973)
