"How still can I move when I am dressed in red?"

Family Workshop with Ambra G Bergamasco

Location: Outside Francis Bacon studio

Moving Bodies Butoh International Festival presents contemporary performance art grounded in Japanese culture.  The festival facilitates a greater understanding of Butoh dance through performances, talks, events and workshops with Japanese and European artists with the aim of advancing our relationship with Butoh as an encounter for peripheral European audiences who are rarely exposed to contemporary Japanese performing arts.

Artist Ambra G. Bergamasco is to the fore in developing Butoh in Ireland with Dance Ireland-Dance House. Currently she is devising a piece on Francis Bacon Butoh and Gilles Deleuze. This was facilitated by the month long residency at Dance Ireland.
