DANCE: Weaving life with movement
World Dance Alliance/Americas Dance Event
August 11– August 14, 2011
Guatemala
Hosted by
in affiliation with
World Dance Alliance-Americas
Centro de Danza e Investigación del Movimiento,
Universidad Rafael Landívar, Guatemala, Central America.
The Event will take place in two locations. It will begin at Centro de Formación de la
Cooperación Española in La Antigua Guatemala and it will proceed to the main campus
of Universidad Rafael Landívar in Guatemala City. This activity will coincide with the XIV
Festival del Centro Histórico (Historical Center Festival) and the presentation of
Traditional Dances in the province of Sololá.
CALL FOR PROPOSALS
From August 11 – 14, 2011, the World Dance Alliance/Americas (WDA) in affiliation with the
Centro de Danza e Investigación del Movimiento of Universidad Rafael Landívar in Guatemala
will host a World Dance Alliance/Americas Dance Event with the theme DANCE: Weaving life
with movement. During the event the Executive Board Meeting WDA/Americas will be held as
well.
The theme DANCE: Weaving life with movement encourages a broad participation and
exchange between dance professionals and other related professionals who work in building
human, harmonic and creative societies through movement and dance. The theme also seeks to
stimulate reflection around dance as a personal and communal experience that carries within
itself the joy of discovering life through movement.
To this end, the General Dance Event invites proposals for scholarly papers, panels, master
classes, forum and performances that address issues related to the general theme divided as
follow:
1. Community Dance:
This theme includes research and/or field experience with dance in community and its
benefits to diverse groups and societies. From this perspective, this section also includes
research and experiences with traditional dances.
2. Teaching the teachers:
a) This theme includes research and/or practical experience related to content and
practice in teaching dancers and teacher training programs for those who teach
dance students and dancers, from beginners to professional level.
2
b) It also includes research and/or practical experience with dance in the K – 12
Curriculum at school settings. In addition, research and/or practical experience
related to dance in education with different populations will be considered.
3. The status of the artist
This theme asks participants to look at policy, legislation, organizations, networking,
experiences in struggle and success, improvements in the conditions of the artists and
the development of the arts in different countries of North, Central and South America.
While the Event certainly welcomes proposals which address issues of the theme DANCE:
Weaving life with movement, paper, panel, class, forum and performance proposals need not be
limited to or by the Event’s theme, which should be considered as a catalyst for discussion rather
than a restraint.

Este lema además, pretende estimular la reflexión en torno a la danza como hecho artístico que al experimentarse por diferentes grupos y comunidades en ambientes diversos, lleva entretejida la experiencia personal y social de descubrir el gozo de la vida a través del movimiento. Con estos fines, el Comité Organizador del Evento invita a someter propuestas de ponencias, paneles, clases magistrales, foro-‐talleres y presentaciones artísticas en relación a los siguientes temas: 1.

APRIL 29, 2011
After studying at the MUDRA dance school and the Tisch School of
the Arts in New York, in 1980 Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker created
Asch, her first choreographic work. 1982 saw the premiere of Fase,
four movements to the music of Steve Reich, one of the most influential
pieces of choreography of the era. In 1983 De Keersmaeker set up her
Rosas company at the same time as creating the work Rosas danst
Rosas. The focus of her work is the relationship between dance and
music. She has used the music of composers from several periods.
While Rosas was resident at La Monnaie (1992-2007), De
Keersmaeker directed a number of operas. The relationship between
dance and words is another thread running through her work. Her
recent productions have been characterised by cooperation with
artists. In 1995 she established the P.A.R.T.S. dance school in
association with La Monnaie.
Après des études à l’école MUDRA et à la New York Tisch School of the
Arts, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker crée sa première chorégraphie, Asch,
en 1980. En 1982 a lieu la première de Fase, four movements to the
music of Steve Reich, une des chorégraphies les plus influentes de son
temps. En 1983, elle fonde, parallèlement à la création de Rosas danst
Rosas, sa propre compagnie, Rosas. Les relations entre la musique et la
danse sont au coeur de son travail artistique, la portant à s’intéresser à des
compositeurs d’époques diverses. Pendant la période de résidence de Rosas à
la Monnaie (1992-2007), la chorégraphe a mis en scène plusieurs opéras.
Le rapport entre la danse et le texte est une constante de son oeuvre. Ses
productions récentes se caractérisent par des collaborations avec des artistes
plasticiens. En 1995, elle a fondé avec la Monnaie l’école de danse
P.A.R.T.S.

una delle sue coreografie più significative. Nel 1983 fonda la Compagnia
Rosa and creates Rosa danst Rosas. Il punto centrale dei suoi lavori è la
relazione tra musica e danza, prediligendo musiche di ogni epoca. Durante
una residenza a La Monnaie (1992-07) dirige una serie di opere. La
relazione tra la parola e il movimento è una parte della tessitura dei suoi
lavori. Le sue ultime creazioni sono caratterizzate da una serie di
collaborazioni con altri artisti. Nel 1995 è fondatrice di P.A.R.T.S. una
scuola di danza in collaborazione con La Monnaie.

Message
by ANNE TERESA DE KEERSMAEKER
I think dance celebrates what makes us human.
When we dance we use, in a very natural way, the mechanics of our body
and all our senses to express joy, sadness, the things we care about.
People have always danced to celebrate the crucial moments of life and our
bodies carry the memory of all the possible human experiences.
We can dance alone and we can dance together. We can share what makes
us the same, what makes us different from each other.
For me dancing is a way of thinking. Through dance we can embody the
most abstract ideas and thus reveal what we cannot see, what we cannot
name.
Dance is a link between people, connecting heaven and earth.
We carry the world in our bodies.
I think that ultimately each dance is part of a larger whole, a dance that has
no beginning, and no end.
Je pense que la danse est la célébration de ce qui nous rend humain.
Lorsque nous dansons, nous utilisons, de façon très naturelle, les mécanismes de
notre corps et tous nos sens pour exprimer la joie, la tristesse, tout ce qui nous
tient à cœur.
Les gens ont toujours dansé pour fêter les moments cruciaux de leurs vies et nos
corps portent le poids des souvenirs de toutes les expériences humaines possibles.
Nous pouvons danser seuls et nous pouvons danser ensemble. Nous pouvons
partager ce qui nous rend semblables, ce qui nous rend différents de l’autre.
Pour moi, danser est une façon de penser. A travers la danse nous pouvons
incarner les idées les plus abstraites et ainsi révéler ce que nous ne pouvons voir,
ce que nous ne pouvons nommer.
La danse est un lien entre les gens, un pont entre ciel et terre.
Nous portons le monde dans notre corps.
En fin de compte, je pense que chaque instant de danse fait partie d’un ensemble
plus vaste, d’une danse qui n’aurait ni début, ni fin.
Traduction: Zoé Simard
Quando danziamo usiamo in un modo naturale le meccaniche del corpo e
tutti i nostri sensi, per esprimere gioia, tristezza e altre cose care a noi.
Le persone da sempre danzano per celebrare alcuni momenti cruciali della
vita, ed è attraverso il corpo che si conserva la memoria di ogni esperienza
umana vissuta pienamente.
Si può danzare da soli o con altre persone.
Possiamo condividere quello che ci rende uguali, o quello che ci rende
differenti l’uno dall’altro.
Per me la danza è un mezzo per poter pensare. Attraverso la danza possiamo
incarnare idee astratte, idee che non possiedono alcuna norma prestabilita,
e rivelare quello che nessuno può vedere e che non ha un nome.
La danza è un legame tra le persone, unisce il paradiso con la terra.
Noi portiamo il mondo dentro il nostro corpo.
Io credo profondamente che ogni danza fa parte di un insieme più grande,
una danza che non ha un inizio, e non ha una fine.

Io credo che la danza celebra quello che ci rende umani.

Backgrou nd
In 1982 the International Dance Committee of the International Theatre Institute
(ITI/UNESCO) founded International Dance Day to be celebrated every year on
the 29th of April.
The date commemorates the birthday of Jean-Georges Noverre, who was born in
1727 and was a great reformer of dance. Every year a message from a well-known
dance personality is circulated throughout the world. The intention of
International Dance Day and the Message is to bring all dance together on this
day, to celebrate this art form and revel in its universality, to cross all political,
cultural and ethnic barriers and bring people together in peace and friendship with
a common language - Dance.
In 1995, in an effort to unite dance, the International Dance Committee entered
into a collaborative effort for the celebration of International Dance Day with
World Dance Alliance as their only official partner.
WDA Europe in collaboration with PAC Proietti Art Creations, since in 2007, are
sponsors and creators of the message.
MESSAGE DE LA JOURNÉE INTERNATIONALE DE LA DANSE
Historique
Nel 1982, il “Comitato Internazionale della Danza” dell’ “Istituto Internazionale
del Teatro” (ITI/ UNESCO), ha istituito la “Giornata Internazionale della Danza”
da celebrare il 29 Aprile di ogni anno. La data commemora Jean-Georges Noverre
grande riformatore della danza, nato il 29 aprile 1727. Ogni anno, il 29 Aprile, un
“Messaggio al mondo della Danza” scritto da una personalità della danza di fama
mondiale, viene diffuso in tutto il mondo.
Gli obiettivi della “Giornata Internazionale della Danza” e del Messaggio sono di
riunire, in quel giorno, tutto il mondo della danza, per rendere omaggio a questa
forma d’arte, celebrare la sua universalità che attraversa tutte le barriere politiche,
culturali ed etniche, e riunisce l’umanità intera in amicizia e pace intorno ad un
comune linguaggio - la Danza.
Per la celebrazione della “Giornata Internazionale della Danza”, dal 1995 il
Comitato Internazionale della Danza/UNESCO sceglie come unico partner
ufficiale World Dance Alliance, per promuovere l’unità dell’arte coreutica nel
mondo.
Dal 2007 WDA Europe in collaborazione con lo studio grafico PAC Proietti Art
Creations sono sponsors e realizzatori del messaggio stesso.
