DANC 364 Critical Approaches to Dance
This class critically examines the relationship between Euro-American dance production and cultural identity in Western society. The class tracks the connection between the aesthetic and the cultural by structuring the investigation into two correlated fields of interrogation – critical theory and cultural analysis of dance. The class endeavors to determine the overlapping strategies between the choreographies of identification with those of choreographies of dance. This entitles the class to analyze culture through dance and to read dance production and history as political.
