Course Description

Summary

This course will introduce students to the multiple ways of “knowing and knowledges” that dance and dancing offers within and alongside the landscape of contemporary art making.  We will gather and engage with experiences, practices and processes that help to define what we think of as “contemporary” issues at the intersection of dance, performance, and art making.

Learning Outcomes

  • Students will be able to recognize dance as a reflective and relational practice.
  • Students will practice responsive writing and critical discourse.
  • Students will develop strategies for independent and collective classroom and studio sharings.
