Choreographies of Migration: Dance and Immigration Conference
Deadline: proposals must be received by February 1, 2007
To celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Congress on Research in Dance and
the centennial of José Limón (1908 - 1972), CORD in partnership with Barnard
College and the Limón Institute will host a conference titled
"Choreographies of Migration" in New York City on November 8 - 11, 2007. The
interdisciplinary conference aims to gather scholars and artists to explore
dance's past, present and future through the critical prism of migration.
The Conference Program Committee invites proposals for individual papers,
panels, lecture-demonstrations and workshops on all aspects of the
performing arts, especially those that engage questions related to the
conference theme: How has migration shaped the course of dance history? What
are the methodological and theoretical implications of migration studies for
dance research? How do particular dance styles embody migratory histories?
How has migration transformed the pedagogy and performance of traditional
dance forms? What are the particular histories of networks of teachers,
artists, and critics that constitute "the dance world"? What could dance
reveal about the experiences and conditions of immigration, diaspora, exile,
detention, globalization, displacement, and other forms of social
im/mobility?
Possible topics include historical, ethnographic and/or theoretical studies
of:
global migrations of social, theatrical, sacred dance, and/or theatrical
forms
dance and the exilic memory
new research on ancient migrations
immigration policy and the arts
migratory rituals and border performances
transnational or "world" music and dance forms
The conference will take the occasion of José Limón's centennial to reflect
on the ways that immigrant experiences shaped dance modernism in the US and
abroad. As such, we especially invite proposals that explore the impact of
immigration on the life and work of artists such as José Limón, George
Balanchine, Eiko & Koma, Garth Fagan, Geoffrey Holder, Hanya Holm, Rudolf
Laban, Vaslav Nijinksky, Pearl Primus, and Yuriko, among many others.
